Political Roundup: Post-Shooting Politics, And Speaker Bonnen’s Rough Week

It’s been a busy week in politics — from responses and reactions to last weekend's deadly mass shootings in El Paso and Dayton, Ohio, to Pres.

In the audio above, Craig Cohen goes through those and other stories with University of Houston political scientists Elizabeth Simas and Jeronimo Cortina, who’s just been named the new co-host of Houston Public Media’s Party Politics podcast, which returns in September.
