Episode 97 - "Desperation Deserves Mercy" [PRIMARY SPECIAL]

<p>It was primary night and, of course, we got all the coverage you want here on the Epoch. From the completely undemocratic houses, the controversy in the Suffolk Country D.A.'s race, and the continuation of racist, reactionary politics, polices, and politicians, that plague Massachusetts every election cycle and beyond. We also discuss Dork Brandon, Climate Change, Unions, and Jesse leads a discussion on Chile's fight for a new constitution.
