The Show regularly checks in with Editorial Board of the Arizona Republic to talk about the big issues facing the state and the region — featured in the newspaper’s Viewpoints section.

President Trump’s phone call with the president of Ukraine included what, to many, sounded like tying U.S. defense support and funding to whether Ukraine could share some information on Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden. This has led to House Democrats launching an impeachment inquiry.

It’s an issue that will test the institutions of government and an already-polarized electorate.

The Arizona Republic published an editorial calling on Republicans to act on the allegations against a fellow GOP President.

Phil Boas, editorial director of The Arizona Republic, joined The Show to talk about this development.
