Description
<p>This week on the Epoch we cover bureaucracy, redtape, coups, and other bullshit. We talk about the government shutdown and try to make sense of the debt ceiling once again, the endless rounds of votes that finally saw Kevin McCarthy become Speaker of the House, the fail coup attempt/temper tantrum of January 8th in Brasília, the rise in political violence in Peru, and how it ties to the history of anti-communism and the Third World.
