@IAMMGraham

In a raucous episode, Michael Graham (Ricochet Podcasts/CBS News/Boston Herald columnist) joins The Lincoln Review to discuss – and argue with Ed – media, the state of the GOP and modern conservatism.

SHOW NOTES:

Ed’s link to Obama speech on Islam:

https://obamawhitehouse.archives.gov/the-press-office/2016/02/03/remarks-president-islamic-society-baltimore

“Now, we do have another fact that we have to acknowledge. Even as the overwhelming majority -- and I repeat, the overwhelming majority -- of the world’s Muslims embrace Islam as a source of peace, it is undeniable that a small fraction of Muslims propagate a perverted interpretation of Islam. This is the truth.”

Jeff sat down with author of 'JFK Conservative' & 'Sam Adams: A Life' Ira Stoll as well as Mike Stopa, co-host of the 'Harvard Lunch Club' podcast on ricochet.com.

They talk Trump, immigration, then Trump again.
