Why Did So Many People Give Sam Bankman-Fried the Benefit of the Doubt?

Political Strategist Max Burns fills in for John. He discusses Biden's trip to Lewiston Maine to grieve with the community after the mass shooting that killed 18 people. He also talks about a jury finding fallen crypto mogul Sam Bankman-Fried guilty of 7 counts of fraud and conspiracy after a month long trial. He takes a call from Mitch at Kent State on the new Beatles single. Then, Max interviews Virginia Delegate Dan Helmer who is running for re-election in the newly formed District 10. They chat about abortion bans, Governor Glenn Youngkin, and the upcoming elections in Virginia. Next, he takes calls from Mark in South Dakota on election strategy. Then finally, Max welcomes Susan Tebben. She is a reporter with the Ohio Capital Journal which is an independent, nonprofit news organization dedicated to covering Ohio state government. She joins him as she is covering Issue 1, Ohio’s massive and complex ballot issue that will shape the future of abortion access in the Buckeye State, plus the other issues that are driving this election cycle.
