The Biden administration's embrace of critical theory on both race and gender undermines fundamental

American principles and divides Americans from each other. I'm Ben Shapiro. This is The Ben Shapiro Show.

administration is radically out of touch with the American public, ranging from energy prices to

inflation to immigration. There's one area where the Biden administration is extraordinarily

radically out of touch. And that is because once again, as always, Joe Biden reflects the center of the Democratic Party,
