Brad and Dan begin by demonstrating how Mitch McConnell, who is stepping down from Senate leadership because of his party's extremism, created that extremism by poking holes in democracy. His work is coming to fruition in SCOTUS' decision to hear the Trump immunity appeal - and thus almost guarantee he won't be prosecuted before the election.

In the second segment the hosts trace the fallout of the Alabama IVF decision, showing how it is the work of 6 decades of organizing to end reproductive rights, a sign of the Catholicization of sexual politics in America, and an example of bad natural theology.

In the final segment, they take on a new essay at the National Review titled "A Case for a Theocentric Right."
