MOVING FORWARD: Crowdstrike, Houthi Attacks on Shipping, Surgical Castration, and Maria Oropeza

Last month's Crowdstrike-Microsoft outage was a learning experience for millions of people. Xizi Daigle says one of those lessons is that the UK government must reform EU tech rules to avoid similar disasters.

Houthi attacks on shipping in the Red Sea having far-reaching economic impact. Shay Khatiri explains that securing the Red Sea may require sinking Iran's navy.

Last month, Louisiana became the first state to allow surgical castration as a punishment for certain sex crimes against minors. Autumn Billings says the new law chooses revenge over public safety.

On August 6, officials from Venezuela's military counter intelligence agency took Maria Oropeza into custody for her opposition to the Maduro regime. Izabella Patriota joins us to discuss how the Ladies of Liberty Alliance (LoLA) is working to secure Maria's release.
