This episode of the Straight White American Jesus weekly roundup, sponsored by the American Humanist Association, tackles critical issues including the nomination of Kash Patel as FBI director, SCOTUS hearings on trans discrimination, and the historical parallels to the current threat to democracy posed by Donald Trump. Brad and Dan discuss whether the current political climate is unprecedented or if similar struggles have been faced by marginalized communities throughout American history. The episode also highlights recent events, such as federal judges deciding not to retire to prevent Trump from filling their seats, and reflects on how to strategize against a potential decline into illiberalism.
