A Woman Of “Value” (Hour 1)
Can you be a woman of value if you don’t get married and have children? Cause apparently to the speakers at Turning Point USA’s Young women’s Leadership Summit - you cannot. This past weekend marked the conservative organization Turning Point USA’s annual Young Women’s Leadership Summit. Which is an event that meant for high school and college age young women. Media Matters’ Madeline Peltz reported her time there and observed some variation of the same speech from the roster of conservative speakers imploring young attendees to give up their career aspirations and their birth control.
The Daily Wire’s Candace Owens literally wrapped up the convention by telling attendees, “Every ill that we are fighting right now in society has been brought forth by women.”
We discuss the hypocrisy of these career focused women (Owens, Alex Clark, Allie Beth Stuckey, Laura Ingram) evangelizing young women to not have a career, what a "traditional" wife actually is, and what the political end game is in preaching this message.
Define the “economy is doing well” (Hour 1)

Then we reflect on what gun laws have been passed in the year since Uvalde.
