What A Day - This Ken Is On Trial

The 22nd anniversary of the 9/11 terrorist attack was yesterday, and officials around the country memorialized the nearly 3,000 people who were killed. Roughly 40 percent of the victims remain unidentified, but officials recently used DNA testing to discover the identities of two more of those killed in the attack.

Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton's impeachment trial continued into its fifth day Monday, when his former chief of staff testified that Paxton had an affair with a woman named Laura Olson. Paxton is only the third public official in Texas to be impeached, and if convicted he will be basically fired. A verdict could come down as soon as this week.

And in headlines: the FDA greenlit a new round of COVID-19 vaccines, thousands are feared dead in Libya after Storm Daniel hit the country, and strippers at Portland’s Magic Tavern Club voted to unionize.

The Daily Signal - Liz Wheeler on Marxist ‘Attack on America’s Kids’

The battleground that the radical Left has not conquered is “our children,” commentator and podcast host Liz Wheeler says, but make no mistake—the battle is raging. 


“The Left has actually been trying to reengineer our society for nearly a century, and unfortunately, they have been very successful at it,” says Wheeler, host of “The Liz Wheeler Show.”

The far Left has captured all but one of America’s central cultural institutions, she says. 


“They've captured the media. They've captured the education system. They've captured a lot of religious institutions, unfortunately. They've captured the law,” Wheeler says.

And now, she adds, the Left has “just about destroyed the nuclear family as well.” 


But one element of the nuclear family "is left standing," Wheeler says, and "that's children, which probably explains why the Left is going after our children."


In her new book "Hide Your Children: Exposing the Marxists Behind the Attack on America's Kids,” Wheeler pulls back the curtain on the Marxists who laid the groundwork for the breakdown of America’s families. She joins “The Daily Signal Podcast” to explain the relevant history and what can be done to protect the next generation.


Enjoy the show!

What Next | Daily News and Analysis - How DeSantis Turned New College into a Circus

Back in January, Ron DeSantis appointed six new trustees to the board of Florida’s New College, who swiftly set about remaking the school according to a much more conservative vision of what college should be. Now, as the new school year begins, we’re starting to see what that vision actually looks like. 


Guest: Sam Greenspan, freelance journalist who attended New College of Florida from 2004 to 2008 and reported on the college for Reveal in June.

Then, constitutional law scholar Laurence Tribe talks to Lovett about why the 14th Amendment might bar Trump from serving another term, and Hallie Kiefer joins the guys to test out the latest in right-wing classroom propaganda.
