It's easy to scoff at the idea of identity politics when it seems to be wrecking havoc on our culture and pervading every thing we do, but it forces us to ask the question "Is identity important?" and if so, "Why?"
Join me as I think out loud about this question in today's episode.

Sure, we can talk about "Putin's Price Hike." It has a catchy nice ring to it, but like most slogans, it's too simplistic. Biden has actually done a lot to contribute to your pain at the pump while risking our national security and that of our allies. We break some why Biden is to blame for high gas prices, including a close look at the Keystone XL pipeline in today's episode.

Does Critical Race Theory feel complicated to you? It seems like it’s everywhere and everyone’s talking about it, but what is it exactly?
The Left per usual is gaslighting anyone who speaks against it making claims that CRT doesn’t exist, that it’s not taught in schools, or that anyone who opposes it doesn’t know what they’re talking about. so I thought it might be helpful to explore what a couple of the founders of CRT themselves have to say about it
How do they define it?
Because there has been such a negative reaction from parents of all colors and party affiliations, the Left has employed their usual technique of renaming things in hopes of disguising them. Instead of hearing the term Critical Race Theory, they may disguise it’s teachings under existing terms like social studies or ethnic studies, or they might use newer terms such as equity work/training. Diversity and inclusion training, or anti-racist training. Today we’re going to cut through the crap so that you can recognize CRT when you see it and have the confidence you need to fight against it.
