To this administration and this moment. Today we discuss how Harmeet Dhillon plans to not just ruin the Civil Rights Division of the DoJ, but to actively point it in reverse. Lydia breaks it down for us, and along the way we learn about so many things we didn't appreciate enough while we had them. <ul> <li> <a href="https://www.justice.gov/crt/media/1377011/dl" rel= "noopener noreferrer nofollow">DOJ's Fulton County Jail Investigation</a>, November 2024 </li> <li> <a href= "https://imprimis.hillsdale.edu/the-politicization-of-the-department-of-justice/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Dhillon's piece in Hillsdale College's Imprimis Publication</a>, August 2022 </li> </ul> **If you enjoy our work, please consider leaving a 5-star review!

WTW76: Debunking the Deranged Blake Lively Hatestorm

Every single time the right, or even center-left, goes ballistic over a "woke" controversy, the slightest bit of investigation shows the scandal is almost entirely bogus. This is not a new phenomenon; it dates back decades. It's an intentional tool used to protect the powerful and preserve the status quo, while further scapegoating and otherizing those who push for political progress. This podcast digs into not just today's fake scandals, but those of yesterday and yesteryear. The terminology has changed some, but the pattern has not. Listen in as hosts Thomas and Lydia Smith shine a light on the panic, the fragility, the overreaction, and the lying that ignites 'Where There's Woke.'
