In this no-holds-barred episode, Rachel and Meseidy (who's admittedly on muscle relaxers after tweaking her back) dive into the constitutional controversies rocking education from elementary schools to Ivy League universities. With their signature blend of sharp analysis and unfiltered commentary, they dissect how the mainstream media has completely misrepresented Mahmud versus Taylor as a "book banning case" when it's actually about religious parents seeking opt-out options for elementary curriculum.
They also tackle Harvard's legal battle with the Trump administration over federal funding and antisemitism concerns, delivering the blunt truth about what happens when universities take government money but refuse to comply with oversight.
