USA space program re-ignites, economy still sputters

For the first time in history, NASA has partnered with private enterprise in its recent manned launch of SpaceX’s Dragon spacecraft, delivering two brave Americans to the cosmos. Author and space journalist John Bisney discusses how the US is re-igniting its foray into the final frontier. Meanwhile back on Earth, our economy continues to reel from pandemic shockwaves. Professor Richard Wolff breaks down the ripple effects impacting our food supply, stock valuation, plus colleges and universities.

As the national news cycle is inundated by civil unrest, former Pentagon official Michael Maloof brings us up to speed on backroom damage control and shifting tides abroad.
