Weekly Roundup: The Make America Great Again Migration

Brad begins this solo roundup by discussing how provocateur worship leader Sean Feucht provoked conflict in Portland Sunday. His security team was made up of Proud Boys and Patriot Prayer, leading to reflection on what the intimacy between conservative White Christians and militant nationalists groups means for the ongoing Cold Civil War. Brad then spends extended time charting the political/ideological migration to Idaho, the fastest growing state in the country. He demonstrates how and why people are moving there in order to be in homogeneous communities where White Christians are the majority. This is a reversal of what happened in the mid-20th century, when millions of Southerners and Midwesterners flocked to the Southwest.

Brad finishes by discussing what the new census data tells us about the nation and what it means moving forward.
