What You Need to Know is we have to separate science from psyop! In a world of frenzied news and viral trends, of UFOs and hearings and wildfires, Americans have to be sharper than ever at determining what is a real story and what’s a distraction. We also have to know who’s trying to follow the facts toward objective truth and who’s trying to feed us their own truth to arrive at the conclusion they want. Knowing the difference is a critical tool in the arsenal of every citizen. 

John J. Miller, director of the Dow Journalism Program at Hillsdale College and author for National Review, the Wall Street Journal, and more joins Ed to discuss the reappropriation of words by the woke movement in this country. They also discuss the ways in which modern social media companies exacerbate the 1984-type language issues. Read more about John J. Miller’s work at heymiller.com.

Ryan Walters, Oklahoma Superintendent of Public Instruction and former state Secretary of Education, joins Ed to discuss the issues with China-backed U.S. schools. Walters emphasizes the goal of education, to actually benefit students and prepare them for life. He also discusses the manner in which the CCP-funded Confucius Institutes are pushing Chinese leftism and communism in the school system.

Wrap Up: If you haven’t yet seen or watched the folk ballad “Rich eMen North of Richmond” from Oliver Anthony, you should! (Language warning.) It’s worth your time to see this emotional ballad of regret at where we are and what we’ve lost. (Lyrics here.) It is a shame, but hope is not lost! Take a moment to reflect on this artistic cultural moment. Plus - elitists hate the song and that should help us love it all the more!
