This week on Polilogue, we look at how leaders attempt to get the next phase of normalcy as COVID continues to be a threat. Governor Andy Beshear from Kentucky prioritized teacher vacinnes and getting children into schools. Meanwhile, Governor Kristi Noem of South Dakota deflects the criticisms about the death toll in her state.

We continue to wait for guidance from Dr. Fauci and other public health officials regarding the transmissibility of vaccinated people.

This week on Polilogue, we examine the questions and conversations about the crisis in Texas. Millions of people were without electricity or water for days during a winter storm. In less than a week, dozens of lives were lost, people suffered and went hungry, and billions of dollars in property and infrastructure were damaged. How did an energy-rich state like Texas drop the ball the minute the temperatures dropped?

We also continue to look at the language and recommendations by public health officials to Americans regarding COVID mitigations.

This week on Polilogue, the Director of the CDC re-appears. It remains unclear if and how the Biden administration will stick with the science to determine if schools should reopen. Either way, the Director of the CDC leans on very little data to communicate these new public health guidances. We also discuss the importance of recognizing which questions weren’t being asked.

This week on Polilogue, we look at the conversations that took place on the Sunday shows with Republican senators about the impending impeachment trial. Very few Republicans were were willing to suggest clear accountability measures against the former president who encouraged an insurrection at the Capitol. We also spoke about President Biden’s proposed COVID relief bill. Some shows put their attention on people suffering, other shows focused on the Washington insider baseball game.

For our 200th episode, we decided to change up the structure and examine the Sunday shows with a new lens. Brendan viewed 3 shows: State of the Union, Face the Nation, and Meet the Press. Naomi watched Fox News Sunday and This Week. And so without knowing what happened on the other’s shows, we shared with each other what stood out.

From both political and journalistic standpoints, we had a lot to unpack!

Almost six months since the supplemental federal unemployment benefits expired, Congress is finally seriously considering a new relief bill. Americans are desperate for economic support. Businesses want to keep their doors open. State and local jurisdictions are struggling to balance their budgets.

On today’s episode, we dissect the arguments from bipartisan members of the group pushing this new $908 billion proposal. We also look at emerging news of the Coronavirus Vaccine—which is expected to receive FDA authorization by the end of this week. Finally, we directly address the buzziest conversation out of this Sunday’s shows—George’s controversial interview on This Week with Republican Senator (and Trump election disinformation booster) Mike Braun.

As millions of Americans return home after traveling for Thanksgiving, public health officials went on the Sunday shows to give advice and amplify warnings. Members of the White House Coronavirus Task Force reiterated that there are actionable steps people can take to reduce the spread of the virus, especially if Americans celebrated the holiday with friends or family outside of their personal pod.

We also discuss the fallout of President Trump’s baseless allegations of massive voter fraud. Most notably, the GOP needs to convince Republican voters to vote in an election they believe is fraudulent.

It’s been almost two weeks since the election was called for Joe Biden… and (still), President Donald Trump has yet to concede. President Trump’s legal team continues to flounder, and now we are seeing the Biden transition team strategically respond and plan for January 20.

Today on Polilogue, we also discuss the developing coronavirus vaccine that is likely just weeks away from being administered. Will people trust the vaccine? And if they do, when and where will the vaccine be available?

It’s been almost two weeks since the presidential election and eight days since the election was called for Joe Biden… and yet, President Donald Trump has yet to concede. The Trump Campaign continues to pursue legal recourse though they have yet to win a single legal challenge or provide the American people with any evidence of systemic voter fraud. Today on Polilogue we look at the risks of an incomplete transition or underprepared Biden administration.

We also discuss yet ANOTHER Covid surge as Americans begin their winter and holiday season isolated and weary from the long year.

NOTE: Early in episode Naomi mistakingly combined the hosts names of the podcast You’re Wrong About. Sarah Marshall creates a new tagline for every episode; Michael Hobbes applauds every effort.

After five days, television networks finally called the 2020 Presidential election: Joe Biden will be the 46th president of the United States of America. Kamala Harris will be the first woman and person of color to serve as the nation’s Vice President. President Donald Trump will end his term being the only one term president who has been impeached or resigned and also lost the popular vote.

Today on Polilogue, we review our biggest media impressions from Election Week. We also examine how the Sunday shows recapped Biden’s wins and discussed Trump’s refusal to concede.

The Presidential 2020 election is less than 48 hours and the Sunday shows, understandably, focused their shows entirely on the state of the race. Today on Polilogue, we explore how the shows explain their polls and how they contextualize the campaigns’ messaging.

We also examine what else could be motivating people’s votes in the final few days.

REMINDER: We are taking emails, tweets, and voice memos this week! Please send us any and all election news observations that catches your attention this week.
