How does one discern truth in the age of fake news? Departing from the norm, Producer Steve takes over the mike for this week's snoozalogue (don't worry John will be back for the rest of the show), looking at ways to recognize truth whenever mainstream news pundits give you a fake story. All it takes is hard work and determination. And maybe a little prayer.
Back at the helm, John welcomes Linda Harvey (www.missionamerica.com), Founder of Mission America, who continues our discussion on education unions after the Janus decision and how the NEA looks out for itself and for teachers, but not for children.
Why is it so difficult for Islam to assimilate with Western culture? Robert Spencer (www.jihadwatch.org), Director of Jihad Watch, contrasts gender equality and free speech, bastions of the West, with traditional Islamic ideals and discusses the history of jihad.
The uproar continues over Brett Kavanaugh's nomination to the Supreme Court. David Harsanyi (www.thefederalist.com), Senior Editor at The Federalist, examines why leftists who oppose Judge Kavanaugh are more afraid of the Constitution than the man tasked with upholding it.
Understanding the past helps predict and possibly prevent calamity in the future. Stephen Halbrook (www.independent.org), Senior Fellow at the Independent Institute, analyzes gun registration and confiscation in France just prior to Hitler's takeover and asks the question: what would gun confiscation look like if it were implemented in today's America?
Finally, longtime guest and friend of the program Avi Lipkin (www.vicmord.com) joins us to reveal Israel's new Bible Bloc Party, a political group he founded to give Christians, a growing population in Israel, representation in the Knesset.
John’s quote of the week:
"Gun registration almost always precedes gun confiscation. The real question is what happens after that? The people today who are screaming for more gun regulations are the very same voices that tell us our rights to free speech and other rights don't count."
