For Thanksgiving 2021, Caleb reads the 1956 Thanksgiving Day proclamation originally issued by President Dwight D. Eisenhower.  Tragedy hits the south when Sister Schubert announces that their signature Sausage Wrap Rolls have been discontinued just before the holidays.  Reese's announces they'll be releasing a giant Reese's cup just in time for Thanksgiving.  A study in Iowa finds coronavirus in white tail deer.  In a new Breaking The Internet, Caleb goes over a meme claiming democrats cut child poverty in half, created 5.3 million jobs, oversaw the most successful vaccine rollout in history, invested $1.2 trillion in infrastructure, and Trump gave $2 trillion to the rich. Caleb reveals what was the stupidest moment in the Kyle Rittenhouse trial. CNN writer Julia Horowitz writes an article praising Biden for lower gas prices 9 days after writing an article saying the president can't affect gas prices.

It's the Tactics Independence Day Special!  Caleb discusses the influence of Christianity on the Declaration of Independence signed July 4th, 1776.  Dr. Mark Hall, Professor of Political Science at George Fox University and author of "Did America Have A Christian Founding?" joins the show to discuss the influence of Christianity on the Founders.  Caleb does a countdown of the top 20 most American songs of the modern era.  The National Archive's task force on racism (yes, that is a thing) decides the rotunda housing the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution is wrought with "structural racism" and should include "trigger warnings" and interpretative dance.  American Olympian Gwen Berry protests the national anthem at the U.S. qualifications, claiming she was "set-up," and Biden's press secretary defends her.
