Summary

Elon Musk took over Twitter; allowed people who were in Twitter jail to come back onto the platform; and people are absolutely losing their mind. Then he released “the Twitter Files.” Today we discuss how this reveals the ideological and philosophical chasm that exist between Americans. We also discuss how this affects us as people of faith, namely how we speak truth in a culture that is hostile to what we believe.
