Texas Standard For December 13, 2018
A food fight on Capitol Hill may be coming to an end. What’s in the massive farm bill and what isn’t? That story and more today on the Texas Standard. And: As much of the U.S. is focused on disarray in D.C., why dramatic European disunion right now should be on our radar here in Texas. Also: How the recent wild ride on Wall Street is hitting the home front. Plus: How pop-up PACs are skirting campaign laws. And is there an echo in the room? If not, there may be a few under the tree. How the hottest gifts of the season, those smart speakers, really stack up against each other. All this and much more on today’s Texas Standard:
