Keeps playing with the screen off. The episode is played from The Sanity-Cast β€” John Fugelsang’s own podcast host.

In this episode, John dives into the chaos surrounding the recent Senate Judiciary Committee hearing with special counsel Jack Smith, where he faced off against Republican senators attempting to undermine his investigation into Donald Trump’s actions. John highlights the absurdity of the GOP’s tactics, including their attempts to discredit Smith with irrelevant questions about NBA games, showcasing the party’s desperate need to defend Trump amid mounting evidence of wrongdoing.

Joining John is the insightful Tara Devlin, who discusses the ongoing culture wars, and the need for Democrats to reclaim the narrative against the backdrop of fear and misinformation. They talk about the Republican Party’s rotating panic machine, exploring how fearmongering tactics have become a staple in their playbook.

Later, John speaks with Keri Leigh Merritt, author of “An Inconvenient Woman: The Extraordinary Life of Lillian Smith, the Southerner Who Defied Jim Crow America“, who shares the extraordinary life of Lillian Smith, a pioneer of civil rights and LGBTQ+ advocacy in the Jim Crow South. They discuss Smith’s radical ideas and the importance of her legacy in today’s political climate.

Finally, John and his comedic panel, featuring Rhonda Hansome and Keith Price, tackle the latest headlines, including the troubling investigation into the death of Nolan Wells and the implications of systemic racism and privilege in America today.
