Video: Michael Weiss Talks Havana Syndrome

Watch the video of our weekly livestreamed conversation.

On tonight’s episode of Dispatch Live, Mary Trimble was joined by Michael Weiss, editor of The Insider, to discuss his joint report on Havana syndrome and Russia’s alleged involvement in these unexplained health incidents. John McCormack, David Drucker, and Charles Hilu, the newest Dispatch Politics reporter, also joined.

On the Agenda:

  • A breakdown of Havana syndrome and its victims;
  • Russia’s alleged involvement and the mechanics of the supposed weapon behind the health incidents;
  • The U.S. government’s position on Havana syndrome;
  • The state of Florida’s six-week abortion ban and its implications for the presidential race;
  • The Arab voting bloc in Michigan; and
  • Why Charles joined The Dispatch and highlights from his first week on the job.
