Iowa kicks off the 2024 GOP Primary race with its caucus tonight. What to make of the process, what are real good data sets telling us and I've got predictions. Also, the Biden Crime Family is up to its usual crime family tactics — buying votes and trying to get away with crimes. Also, Illinois unions want access to your kids for a full week of "education" about the workforce. Oh, and my Packers won in the playoffs!!! Hosted on Acast.

Liberty's Last Stand is the theme of the show here in 2024. Today, Andrew is joined by Auron MacIntyre of The Blaze and host of the Auron MacIntyre Show to talk about liberty and a need for the right to recognize it's time for a new political formula if liberty can even be saved.

TikTok is bad, because China is bad and it manipulates its own people and now the hearts and minds of millions of American tweens and teens and even grannys. But, a recent study that many on Capital Hill and elsewhere are using to gin up further calls for bans on the app just don't hold up under scrutiny. I go in-depth on more garbage data in, garbage data out. Also, this past weekend marked another year of the left going insane over J6, including President Joe Biden and Michigan won, but are we...

Ron DeSantis did something not seen from a real GOP presidential candidate in almost a decade — talk about a flat tax and abolishing the IRS. FOR REAL.

Nikki Haley wants you to believe that calling illegal immigrants criminals is the real problem for the GOP. Also, what about the purity of college athletics and what about the Epstein list of names...well, it's a Myth Busting Thursday here on Critical Thinking. Hosted on Acast.

What is the theme of the program for 2024? This is something I've been doing for the past few years and this year's theme is "Liberty's Last Stand." What does it mean and how can we bring light to what seems to be a very dark time? Also, we talk about Nikki Haley buying up ad's in major TV markets — why? I've got a theory and it's something out of the Dems playbook from 2020. Also, we talk Claudine Gay "resigning" as President of Harvard and the leftist media freak-out. Also, the use of AI and m...

It's prediction time...what's going to happen in 2024? I've got some thoughts. Also, Brandon Johnson invokes Jefferson Davis when talking about Greg Abbott, there's fat scholarship that tells you all the leftist talking points apply to being fat and Mike DeWine gives the most disgusting answer to why he vetoed a ban on trans surgeries for minors. All of that and more happened while we were away. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information....

Colorado's Supreme Court gave the O.K. to kicking Donald Trump off the state ballot in 2024, in a not-so-shocking bit of news to those of us paying attention. But, I'm still left with questions about whether MAGA Forever gets it and if they do, what's the plan for dealing with their favored candidate being lawfaired and constituioned out of the 2024 election. Also, Rashard Mendenhall goes full racist or head trauma in calling out white reporters and wanting all-black vs. all-white Pro Bowl. Oh, ...

The Elf on the Shelf is the worst and it needs to get off my Facebook feed. Also, are Trump's lawyers the last hope to save the 2024 election and I've learned something a bit disturbing and awesome about the 12 Days of Christmas song that many likely don't or shouldn't want to know. Yes, it's a #TruthOrFiction Tuesday on the show! The final one of 2023 as well. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

A new polling of Palestinians by Palestinian Center for Policy and Survey Research gave us our first real glimpse at what the people in the Gaza Strip and West Bank believe about Hamas, Israel and all things war. The results may surprise some in the West. Also, Vivek makes CNN defend the Cops and what about pharmacies violating your civil liberties?

Harvard's President, Dr. Claudine Gay, was accused of large swaths of plagiarism by intrepid reporters over the weekend. It left Harvard with a choice — academic integrity or DEI. It chose and I discuss. Also, we have a choice in our culture and society writ large, either Vox Populi, Vox Dei or Restoring Liberty. Will we chose correctly? It's also a WTF Wednesday and we watch the idiots at work, SNL managing to turn the good in to the evil and Dana White begging you to stop boycotting Bud Light....

Special Prosecutor Jack Smith has gone for the gusto, bypassing the normal appeals process and asking the Supreme Court to weigh in on whether a President can have immunity for crimes while in office, even after he leaves office. Also, are we going to be at war in the Middle East in 2024 and will the new nativist immigration stance within the GOP kill the party for good? All that and more on a #TruthOrFiction Tuesday!

The Science, The Truth, Dr. Anthony Fauci gave an interview to the BBC in which he lets the world know he has no use for organized religion or really any religious belief at all — but he's totally a Catholic in identity. Also, Donald Trump will be your liberator and the mRNA jabs only contain 10 percent more proteins than the COVID spike protein. Nothing to see there, even according to the authors of the study. Oh and Deadspin gaslights us in "apologizing" for calling a little boy racist. Hosted...

A 'family-owned' coffee shop in Oakland was caught on film denying entry to a Jewish woman who wanted to use a bathroom in their shop, or so the right-wing narrative goes. The truth is far more disgusting on behalf of the anti-Semitic leftists that occupied jobs at the coffee shop. They actually were hiding the very anti-semitic language scribbled on the bathroom once they noted the patron was about to document it. So munch for, 'Never Again' as we watch these vile humans dehumanize and taunt he...

The GOP held its final debate before the 2024 Primary season begins with the Iowa Caucuses in January and Ron DeSantis was a clear winner. He even told us he'd take inspiration from Calvin Coolidge. An interesting choice and if he does, does that mean he gets what needs to be done on the federal government level? Also, Joe Biden can't hide behind email aliases anymore and the House Oversight committee shows us even more corrupt payments between Hunter, Joe and the rest of the Biden Crime Family....

Sen. Dick Durbin (IL) has a plan to solve the illegal immigration crisis — turn them in to soldiers...if they can pass a background check of course. Also, is Juwan Howard going to make it to the end of the season in Ann Arbor and what about CBDC as a tool to eliminate debt. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

So, let me get this straight, the United States official position is that the Palestinian Authority, a literal terrorist organization, that up until today and still tomorrow, pays people to kill Jews or martyr themselves in the name of Allah, is the answer to the Israeli-Hamas conflict? What kind of fresh hell did Kamala Harris unleash this weekend and who keeps letting her speak in public? Also, Tucker Carlson and others want you to believe if you don't support Donald Trump in the GOP primary o...

Florida Governor Ron DeSantis took on California Governor Gavin Newsom in a debate last night and I've got some thoughts — including how DeSantis making Newsom own the poop on the streets of San Francisco was a master stroke. Also, Joe Biden has two of the worst takes of the week and Elon Musk says what every person would like to do to Disney and woke companies all across this nation — GFY — in our best and worst takes of the week!

Donald Trump received an endorsement from Rhode Island BLM's president. So, naturally, that means the black vote in America is about to flip bigly!! Or not. Also, Vivek loved him some COVID segregation and CTU loves themselves some grift, this time funneling taxpayer money through family members in the name of charity, or something. Hosted on Acast.

Auron MacIntyre wrote an article at The Blaze that triggered some thoughts in me, as he noted the managerial takeover and schism that's happening in the left-controlled world of academia and government. He sees opportunity to take over, but how and for what? So many have no answers, just thoughts. That's the problem on the right. Also, Michigan votes to go full clean-energy in under 20 years, Oakland has voted to end the war between Israel and Hamas and the National Railroad Museum puts up a sat...

Irish politicians are debating speech laws, based on the "common good." Also, in Ireland, 3 little girls were stabbed to death by an Islamist and riots and violence broke out in a nation that is seeing mass illegal immigration. Sound familiar? Is what is happening in Ireland the future of America too? Also, should Ohio State part ways with Ryan Day? Deadspin goes full on Nick Sandman on a kid daring to dress up in face-paint and a head dress, no seriously. Oh and will the MAGA Cult cost America,...

Human Rights Campaign came out with it's report on trans murders in America, on National Day of Trans Remembrance (of course), and it wants us to know there's an epidemic of trans murders happening in America.

Self-described Anarcho-capitalist and Libertarian, Javier Milei, won Argentina's Presidential election over the weekend. It should be something to celebrate for the liberty movement, but instead, many took time to crap all over the win by applying their own purity tests to him. We discuss that, plus Janet Yellen wants you to know aid to Ukraine for school teachers and first responders is so important we must go in to further debt here in America for it. Oh, and Bidenomics isn't being sold correc...

After giving you some history of the evil beginnings of compulsory public education from the 1850's onward, we fast-foward to today, where Chicago Teachers Union and the Illinois Federation of Teachers are attempting to kill off a privately-funded, but publicly-accessible scholarship program for school choice called the "Invest in Kids" scholarship. Joining me to talk about the CTU's role in all of this, as well as why what happens here matters to what's happening in your neighborhood, your city...

I know you think of public school as a way to better ones self, climb the social ladder and give you the tools to be anything you want to be. Except, that's not the real history of public schools and not what those who are protecting them competition today are actually fighting for. On today's program I look at the history of how and why public education became a thing in America and if it's something we should be fighting to save or to blow up completely.

The third and allegedly final debate prior to the 2024 GOP Primary race beginning went down last night in Florida and I've got some things I loved and hated. Chief amongst the hated was Nikki Haley's lame abortion answer, basically telling GOP voters you better take a "you do you, boo" stance on abortion or you're a bad person. Also, Vivek did some good and some bad and Ron DeSantis did his best to showcase leadership and results. Oh and NBC did a good job too? Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/pri...

Whether it was a big loss for pro-lifers in Ohio or the Team MAGA and GOP choice for governor in Kentucky getting blown out or more state legislatures flipping, 2023 election night was not good for the Republican Party. Yet, so many believed it would be. Why? What in the past or the present would suggest such a thing would happen? Maybe it's time to realize that the left is a movement and the GOP is just an empty shell that cares about draining your pocketbook and lining theirs too. Maybe it's t...
