This week we'll start with social issues -- the controversy over transgenderism, and the ongoing fight in the courts about an abortion pill. Does this set the GOP up for success or failure?
We'll also talk about the Trump legal case, and the emerging field for 2024 -- which could include Sen. Tim Scott (R-SC), who is forming an exploratory committee. Is it Trump or bust? Or is there another path?
Finally -- we'll pay tribute to my late mother-in-law, Rhoda Kadalie, who passed away one year ago today. We'll honor her life and her legacy, which is a commitment to non-racialism and integrity.
With special guests:
Alan Dershowitz - civil libertarian and author of "Get Trump"
Wayne Allyn Root - radio host, sports book king and author of "Patriot BUY-cott"
Jason Patt - forensic investigator and author of "The Road Death Traveled"

This week's show will be slightly different from the norm: we'll focus on clips and topics, rather than guests -- and that, hopefully, will mean more input from the callers (unless you are all watching football on opening weekend).

One noteworthy passage concerns Amalek, the evil nation that attacked the Children of Israel as they made their Exodus from slavery to freedom. Deuteronomy 25:17-19 commands Jews to obliterate Amalek's memory.
The South African government accused Israel of genocide on the basis of a story about Amalek in the Book of Samuel, in which King Saul was commanded to wipe out the entire evil Amalekite nation.
Because Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu quoted this week's portion -- "Remember what Amalek did to you" (25:17), the South African government claimed he was commanding soldiers to commit genocide.
It was an absurd and malevolent misreading of the Bible and of Jewish tradition. The commandment, as observed by Jews today, is to remember the evil of Amalek and fight ...
