About Google's Monopoly and Tim Walz

•

A federal judge has ruled that Google illegally maintained a monopoly in online search by abusing its dominant market position, the gang discuss! They also chat about the selection of Tim Walz as the Democratic nominee for vice president and the reasons behind the decision. They analyze the electoral implications and policy positions of Walz, particularly on guns. In this final part of the conversation, Justin and Heaton discuss the child tax credit, Tim Walz's progressive stance on guns, the portrayal of politicians in the media, and the importance of trusting politicians' actions rather than their words. They also touch on the selection of Kamala Harris as Joe Biden's running mate and the need for voters to critically evaluate campaign messaging. The conversation concludes with a lighthearted discussion about movies and the concept of 'weirdness' in politics.
