Critical Thinking with Andrew Coppens episodes:

November 30, 2023 MAGA Loves BLM? | 11/30/23
Donald Trump received an endorsement from Rhode Island BLM's president. So, naturally, that means the black vote in America is about to flip bigly!! Or not. Also, Vivek loved him some COVID segregation and CTU loves themselves some grift, this time funneling taxpayer money through family members in the name of charity, or something.

November 29, 2023 Can the Right Counter the Managerial Class Takeover? | 11/29/23
Auron MacIntyre wrote an article at The Blaze that triggered some thoughts in me, as he noted the managerial takeover and schism that's happening in the left-controlled world of academia and government. He sees opportunity to take over, but how and for what? So many have no answers, just thoughts. That's the problem on the right.

Also, Michigan votes to go full clean-energy in under 20 years, Oakland has voted to end the war between Israel and Hamas and the National Railroad Museum puts up a satanic Christmas tree in our #WTFWednesday segment.

November 28, 2023 Ireland is America's Future | 11/28/23
Irish politicians are debating speech laws, based on the "common good." Also, in Ireland, 3 little girls were stabbed to death by an Islamist and riots and violence broke out in a nation that is seeing mass illegal immigration. Sound familiar? Is what is happening in Ireland the future of America too? Also, should Ohio State part ways with Ryan Day? Deadspin goes full on Nick Sandman on a kid daring to dress up in face-paint and a head dress, no seriously. Oh and will the MAGA Cult cost America, America in 2024?

November 22, 2023 The War on Christmas Gets Crazy in Canada | 11/22/23
It's the end of a short week here on Critical Thinking, so Andrew is bringing you his best and worst takes of the week featuring the truth the left doesn't want you to know about Thanksgiving and the whole Indians and Pilgrims debate. Also, Canada's Human Rights Commission believes Christmas and Easter are bigoted holidays because they are the only non-secular holidays on Canada's statutory holiday list. Also, Donald Trump goes dishonest against Iowa Governor Kim Reynolds and apparently believing murder is bad is a strictly religious belief. Hmmmm...strange.

November 21, 2023 America's Trans Murder Epidemic? | 11/21/23
Human Rights Campaign came out with it's report on trans murders in America, on National Day of Trans Remembrance (of course), and it wants us to know there's an epidemic of trans murders happening in America. Is that true? Is the White House just parroting false information once again? Well, we're going to dive in to the data and get you an answer on this #TruthOrFictionTuesday. Also, is Northwestern's David Braun the national CFB Coach of the Year? What about ageism and Joe Biden and what about Jim Harbaugh's absence and its affect on Michigan heading in to "The Game" this weekend?

November 20, 2023 Javier Milei Wins in Argentina, But Is He Libertarian Enough for Libertarians? | 11/20/23
Self-described Anarcho-capitalist and Libertarian, Javier Milei, won Argentina's Presidential election over the weekend. It should be something to celebrate for the liberty movement, but instead, many took time to crap all over the win by applying their own purity tests to him. We discuss that, plus Janet Yellen wants you to know aid to Ukraine for school teachers and first responders is so important we must go in to further debt here in America for it. Oh, and Bidenomics isn't being sold correctly, so Americans need more messaging in order to understand just how well it's going. Who wants to tell her?

November 16, 2023 Illinois Teachers Working to Stop School Choice | 11/16/23
After giving you some history of the evil beginnings of compulsory public education from the 1850's onward, we fast-foward to today, where Chicago Teachers Union and the Illinois Federation of Teachers are attempting to kill off a privately-funded, but publicly-accessible scholarship program for school choice called the "Invest in Kids" scholarship. Joining me to talk about the CTU's role in all of this, as well as why what happens here matters to what's happening in your neighborhood, your city, your state is Mailee Smith, a staff attorney and Senior Director of Labor Policy at the Illinois Policy Institute.

November 14, 2023 The Real Problem With Public Education is Its History | 11/14/23
I know you think of public school as a way to better ones self, climb the social ladder and give you the tools to be anything you want to be. Except, that's not the real history of public schools and not what those who are protecting them competition today are actually fighting for. On today's program I look at the history of how and why public education became a thing in America and if it's something we should be fighting to save or to blow up completely.

November 09, 2023 Nikki Haley Says "You Do You, Boo" On Abortion | 11/09/23
The third and allegedly final debate prior to the 2024 GOP Primary race beginning went down last night in Florida and I've got some things I loved and hated. Chief amongst the hated was Nikki Haley's lame abortion answer, basically telling GOP voters you better take a "you do you, boo" stance on abortion or you're a bad person. Also, Vivek did some good and some bad and Ron DeSantis did his best to showcase leadership and results. Oh and NBC did a good job too?

November 08, 2023 How Did You Not See This GOP Loss Coming? | 11/08/23
Whether it was a big loss for pro-lifers in Ohio or the Team MAGA and GOP choice for governor in Kentucky getting blown out or more state legislatures flipping, 2023 election night was not good for the Republican Party. Yet, so many believed it would be. Why? What in the past or the present would suggest such a thing would happen? Maybe it's time to realize that the left is a movement and the GOP is just an empty shell that cares about draining your pocketbook and lining theirs too. Maybe it's time to realize that personality doesn't trump plans? Just saying.
