Summary
Brad and Dan discuss recent Trump administration actions on immigration, international student visas, and Republican strategies to undermine universities like Harvard. The discussion extends to a growing resistance in Oklahoma where parents utilize GOP-pioneered parental rights laws to opt their children out of biased educational content.
The episode also highlights broader historical and ideological themes around 'family values,' a strategic point of alignment among conservative Christian groups since the 1970s. To wrap up, the guys examine the legal challenges and setbacks faced by Trump's tariffs and broader MAGA policies, including a humorous note on the coined term 'TACO trade.'
