Kirk had an important observation, which is that culture is downstream of religion. We also hear of the Patron Saint of hollywood conservatives that says culture is downstream of religion and these questions are not two easily separated. We like to go everywhere from the headline all the way down to the philosophical and theological premises that undergird those issues. Host do you have an example of a headline youre looking at in todays things that you are covering . What are the cultural underpinnings . Guest the clearest example is this transgender issue. You saw the governor from arkansas last night did not do a good job defending his position on television. He tried to make the argument it is somehow conservative to give little children cross ex hormones and puberty blockers. At the top of all, you see the headline that there are people and children specifically who have confusion about their sex, and boys feel like they are little girls and little girls for like feels like they a
Pres. Biden good afternoon, everyone. Last week in pittsburgh, pennsylvania, i announced my plan to rebuild what i referred to as the Back Bone of america through the american Jobs Plan. It is not a plan that tinkers around the edges, it is a once in a Generation Investment in america.

Because of the uncertainty of the timing of the president s budget submission, the committee has made a difficult decision to delay the markup of the ndaa until july in consultation with senator emhoff. The secretary of defense, chairman milley, will testify in june. That leaves may to focus on hearings. We have 23 nominations or intent to nominate. Getting these nominees confirmed as quickly as possible will require many hearings, including possible fullcommittee hearings on wednesday. So i ask everyone to be as patient and cooperative as possible while we reform this very necessary oversight duty.
