With Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden selecting Sen. Kamala Harris as his running mate, the election season is in full swing. And as John Stonestreet and Shane Morris discuss, the Democratic Party is in full swing as well–to the left, especially issues such as abortion and transgender rights.
John and Shane also discuss the recently crafted “Philadelphia Statement” on civil discourse and strengthening liberal democracy; how Americans dislike abortion, yet are uncomfortable about making it illegal; a new study revealing that more than 90 percent of doctors in Belgium favor infanticide in certain cases; another study revealing those who follow social media for their news are less informed than those who don’t, except for their knowledge of conspiracy theories.
