Summary

Steve contrasts President Trump's move to federalize Washington, D.C., with former Texas gubernatorial and Senate candidate Beto O'Rourke's assertion over the weekend that Democrats need to "F**k the rules" when it comes to congressional redistricting and says it's a perfect illustration of the broken social compact. Bob Vander Plaats from the Family Leader joins the show to discuss activist Chris Rufo's social media question about the lack of evangelical impact on elite discourse. In Hour Two, the team takes Iowa gubernatorial candidate Brad Sherman's "Freedom Quiz." Finally, author and pastor Virgil Walker joins the show to talk about his new Substack article, "A Letter to the Sons We Never Made."
