About this listen
This week on The LEO Podcast, we’re breaking down three major stories shaping policy and everyday life in the U.S.First, the government slashes refugee admissions to just 7,500 next year, prioritizing white South Africans, sparking debate and criticism from humanitarian groups. Then, Texas freezes its HUB program, putting a pause on opportunities for minority-, women-, and veteran-owned businesses to securestate contracts. And finally, the U.S. Mint ends penny production, leaving stores scrambling to make exact change and creating headaches for cash transactions nationwide.
Plus, for our Patreon supporters, there’s a bonus episode diving into new polling on the U.S. Navy deployment near Venezuela and what Americans really think about it. Stayinformed, stay empowered, and let’s unpack what these stories mean for our communities.
