Ep. 169 - The Tortoise & the Harris

from The Tony Kinnett Cast · host The Daily Signal

On the latest episode of “The Tony Kinnett Cast,” we take a look at a classic fable: the tortoise and the Harris—er, I mean the hare. Does expending all of your electoral credibility in the first three weeks of a campaign leave you with more options, or less? What happens to both the election and the world stage if the bets on a powerhouse U.S. economy fracture and falter? Matt Sharp from the Alliance Defending Freedom joins us to discuss the legal battles raging between red and blue states over transgender procedures and “sanctuary” for minors. Could Gov. Tim Walz’ Minnesota policies cause a constitutional crisis? Attorney General Merrick Garland warns of Russian interference in U.S. elections while ignoring the enormous gaps in voter ID law across the country. With voting laws still in motion before early voting begins, this election could hang on a lot more than just the popularity of the candidates on the ballot. Finally, we take a second look at Family Matters—not the phenomenal 1990s sitcom, but the endorsements made by political candidates’ families. Does it matter when the shoe is on the other foot? What does it say when family endorses your direct challenger in a political race?
