Our WorldStar Congress
Our WorldStar CongressDescription
Historically Black community burns, DOJ on Tulsa massacre, and Trump cabinet picks.
This week hosts Tiffany Cross, Angela Rye, and Andrew Gillum acknowledge our brothers and sisters still reeling from the wildfires in the LA area. We’ll pay special attention to a historic Black neighborhood in Altadena that was hit by the Eaton Fire.

It’s becoming increasingly common for members of Congress to challenge each other to fist fights. What’s behind this phenomenon and how likely is it that we’ll see our elected officials ACTUALLY come to blows?
The DOJ has released a review of the Tulsa massacre. They found that the race riot was a “coordinated, military style attack” against the Black community but there’s no one left to prosecute. What’s next for the survivors?
Trump’s cabinet is being confirmed by the Senate this week, including some of his more controversial picks like Christian Crusader Pete Hegseth. Our hosts track which confirmations deserve our attention and share some spicy moments from earlier in the week.
