Mike & Jay open this supporters’ midweek episode with a look at the Biden administration’s approval of the Willow oil project on Alaska’s North Slope. Mike isn’t crazy about it due to environmental concerns but feels that the administration probably couldn’t have legally halted the project. Jay agrees, but would like to see even more drilling, as he doesn’t entirely share Mike’s environmental concerns.
After that they turn to recent comments made by GOP presidential frontrunners Ron DeSantis and Donald Trump concerning Ukraine. Mike and Jay are both supporters of aiding Ukraine and find Trump’s and DeSantis’ positions troubling, though they wonder the extent to which the views are simply opposition to whatever the Biden administration supports and not necessarily an indication of what their policy would be if elected.
Then it’s the next segment in their American Greatness series. This week, they consider how the United States does in world happiness & life satisfaction surveys as well as what our suicide rate says about the happiness of Americans.
