## About this episode

The Baltimore riots and the funeral of Freddie Gray dominate the news cycle as media outlets like CNN and MSNBC attempt to frame the unrest through the lens of systemic white supremacy. Despite Baltimore being led by Mayor Stephanie Rawlings-Blake and a majority-black police force, academic commentators continue to push narratives of institutional anti-blackness. The situation escalates as CNN anchor Brooke Baldwin is forced to apologize for suggesting military veterans are responsible for increased police aggression.

In Washington, DHS Secretary Jeh Johnson faces intense questioning from Senator Rand Paul regarding the legality of bulk data collection and the government's ability to bypass encryption. Meanwhile, the Clinton Foundation faces renewed scrutiny over pay-to-play allegations detailed in Peter Schweizer's book, Clinton Cash. Medical experts also weigh in on Bill Clinton's visible tremors, suggesting the former president may be suffering from atherosclerosis-related neurological issues rather than Parkinson's disease.

Technical warnings take center stage as the television drama CSI: Cyber introduces the public to juice jacking, a method where hackers compromise public USB charging stations to steal smartphone data. Adam Curry and John C. Dvorak break down the technical reality of these exploits while discussing the rise of wearable technology as a form of electronic monitoring. The episode concludes with a look at Robert F. Kennedy Jr.'s appearance on Bill Maher, where he alleges deep-seated corruption within the CDC regarding vaccine safety and industry influence.
