Something that\\u2019s foreign to most -- foreign aid -- became a bit more familiar to us this week. And how exactly did that happen? Through our conversation with Clint Borgen, the founder of the Borgen Project of course! The founder of the campaign to address global poverty is well-versed in what foreign aid is, how it's distributed, and the many forms it can come in, and his knowledge surely shone in this conversation. Insights were also shared as it relates to the US\\u2019s role in foreign aid, as well as other countries. We also cover everything from the March Madness tea, D.C. statehood, the Biden border crisis, the California Newsom recall efforts, and how to take action against gun violence.\\xa0
