Munch My Benson: A Law & Order: SVU Podcast191 - I Mean We Want His Joint to Have Been on Fire (S2E1 Wrong Is Right)The first installment of the Neal Baer era is a doozy, pitting our intrepid SVUs against the defense-industrial complex.

Sure, jurisdiction and the vic's very speculative status as a special victim as it burned to a crisp are real-life hurdles that are completely ignored as Stabler and the Unit dig into the vic's eventually...

The RacketBack to GuantánamoAudio editing by Evan RobertsFor the Biden administration, the arrival of thousands of Haitian immigrants on the southern border has been a telling moment. Instead of rushing relief to and expediting the admission of asylum seekers, the White House focused on the domestic political fallout: trying to appease the nativist right through a massive deportation wave, while defusing criticism from the left by weakly addressing the most visceral actions by border agents caught on camera. Inevitably, no one is happy.An even more dire response was hinted at last week by NBC News. The...
