Summary
David French shares about his move to The New York Times, and why MAGA Conservatives call him a "sell out" when journalism on the far right is where the big money is found. Then, Skye and David discuss the 303 Creative case at the Supreme Court. Is creating a website a service or is it speech? The answer will determine whether the government may compel some religious businesses to support same-sex weddings. And new research shows diversity training is largely ineffective. Why do we continue to believe pre-packaged programs—both inside and outside the church—are how to change beliefs and behaviors?

| 1:33.8 | The answer to that question will determine whether the government may compel some religious |
