Her newest podcast, Burn Order, unravels how the incarceration of more than 100,000 Japanese Americans and Japanese immigrants during WWII was planned and carried out. Shockingly, the full story behind one of the 20th century's worst American human-rights abuses might never have come to light if not for the relentless work of a hobbyist researcher - who had been incarcerated herself. Kara and Rachel dig into the story and explore the parallels to President Trump's mass-deportation policies. They also discuss the recent boat strikes on alleged drug traffickers, the escalating drama around the competing bids for Warner Bros. Discovery and what it signals for the future of the news business, and MSBC's evolution into MS NOW. See less
