Both sides rest their cases against Trump

The defence and prosecution rest their cases in Trump impeachment; protests in Myanmar

Both the defence and the prosecution have now rested their cases in Donald Trump's second impeachment trial, a process some observers say lacked punch.

Also, we hear from the biggest city in Myanmar, where it's day 8 of the protests against a military takeover.

Plus, why South Asians in the UK are apparently prone to listening to fake news about COVID?

Joining Paul Henley to discuss these and other issues are Anne Karpf, a British sociologist, writer, and Professor of Life Writing and Culture at the London Metropolitan University; and Mike Berners-Lee, a writer and consultant on the environment and a professor at Lancaster University here in the UK.
