The podcast where we discuss the news of the week.
This week, Newslaundry’s Abhinandan Sekhri, Manisha Pande, and Raman Kirpal are joined by Washington-based columnist Seema Sirohi.
On the US elections, Abhinandan says Trump’s stance on illegal immigration resonates with the voters, adding that at least 10 million people have come in illegally. Seema says the Democrats can only blame themselves for the immigration issue. “When Biden became president, they removed all restrictions [on immigration] that Trump had put.”
On Lawrence Bishnoi, Raman says a person who interrogated Bishnoi spoke to a Newslaundry reporter and told him, “He is so scared... When you meet him, he doesn’t carry the same image that the media has created of him.” Manisha points out, “Just last year, the NIA accused him of having links with Khalistanis... He is now suddenly an assassin who’s killing Khalistanis.”
This and a lot more. Tune in!
