Summary

We begin today’s show with a look at the courts and how all three Trump SCOTUS appointees continue to subvert the agenda, despite throwing us a few bones on the most egregious lower-court rulings. We’re joined by Andy Roth, president of the State Freedom Caucus Network, for an analysis of what went wrong and right with this year’s legislative sessions. He points out that where the Freedom Caucuses were already large, such as Wyoming and South Dakota, we’re already achieving policy victories. Where they are smaller, we are still in the exposure phase, which is important. He also has important advice for conservatives running for legislature and how they must not allow themselves to get bribed into doing bad things based on promises to move their legislation. Finally, we go round-robin across the country and analyze the opportunity to get better governors in key red states. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
