Dr. Alan Chartock's Morning Commentary

WAMC's Dr. Alan Chartock discusses President Trump's plan to have tanks on display at Thursday's Fourth of July celebration in Washington, D.C. 

He also comments on reports of squalid conditions at border detention facilities in Texas, and a secret Facebook group where Border Patrol agents have been accused of joking about migrants' deaths and making sexist remarks. 

Also in the headlines: a new CNN poll says U.S. Senators Kamala Harris and Elizabeth Warren are narrowing Vice President Joe Biden's lead in the 2020 Democratic primary. 

Dr. Alan Chartock is professor emeritus at the University at Albany. He hosts the weekly Capitol Connection series, heard on public radio stations around New York. The program, for almost 12 years, highlighted interviews with Governor Mario Cuomo and now continues with conversations with state political leaders. Dr. Chartock also appears each week on The Media Project and The Roundtable and offers commentary on Morning Edition, weekdays at 7:40 a.m.
