Damage Control

A new TV series, American Crime Story: Impeachment, has brought President Bill Clinton’s infamous affair with then-intern Monica Lewinsky back into the limelight. Washington Examiner commentary writer Tiana Lowe joins the show to reflect on how Lewinsky was savagely mistreated at the time & how poorly many defenses of Clinton have aged. Plus, she breaks down the #MeToo movement’s reckoning with Bill Clinton’s legacy and how many feminists now preaching “believe all women” gave the former Democratic president “one free grope.”

And what are the potential social and health consequences of forcing healthy young people to live under dystopian pandemic regimes?

Trans activist and pornstar Buck Angel explains his “controversial” opinions that made him persona non grata with the woke Left and its online mobs.

What does it mean to be transexual? When did it become ‘transphobic’ to acknowledge biological sex? How did the LGBTQ community become so intolerant and fragile? What should we make of the complicated issues of transgender children and transgender inclusion in sports? And what about “detransitioners?”

Buck and I discuss all this & much more.

“You don’t need to wait on the ballot box to revolutionize your life… to get healthier, wealthier, create the kind of life that you want.” — Kamau Olatunji

My Foundation for Economic Education colleague Kamau Olatunji joins the show to explain the “Revolution of One” project and message. Waiting on politicians and the government to solve your problems is a recipe for unhappiness, Kamau explains. He outlines how to take charge of your life and make change by focusing on yourself as an individual. Kamau and I contrast this message to the narratives of oppression, systemic racism, and hopelessness offered by those pushing Big Government and collectivism.
