About this episode

John's monologue dives into Trump attacking the Smithsonian saying there’s too much focus on ‘how bad slavery was’. He also discusses Trump's assault on schooling which has created an opening for the right-wing pseudo-academic organization PragerU to try and fill the void with its brand of conservative content. So far 10 states have approved PragerU propaganda education in elementary schools. Then, he speaks with Professor Corey Brettschneider on proposing an executive order to restrict mail in ballots and a lawsuit challenging a particular confederate monument. Next, John interviews Voting Rights Advocate Jasmine Burney-Clark on mail-in ballots, voting machines, and the push forward on gerrymandered TX maps. Then finally, he chats with comedian Keith Price AKA Comedy Daddy on the Supreme Court decision to rescind the protections for over 500K refugees.
