"My values haven't changed." That's what Kamala Harris stated in her first interview since becoming the official Presidential candidate of the Democratic Party. In this special episode, Brian draws of from his lengthy San Francisco media career to detail Harris' ultra-radical values which were on full display during her tenure as San Fran's District Attorney and California's Attorney General. "She stood up for the so-called 'rights' of illegal aliens on trial for murder, more than she did their dead victims," says Sussman. "Even when those dead victims were police officers."

Brian also explains the anti-American family atmosphere which greatly influenced Harris's political embodiment, providing us with a stern warning should she be elected into the White House.

259 - "My Values Haven't Changed" - How Kamala's "Values" Ruined Lives in San Fran

Tragically, In 1993, three children were murdered in the town of West Memphis, Arkansas. Understandably, the people of the town felt that something terrible and sinister was going on. Was it possible that a satanic cult was responsible? What happened next was, and this should not come as any surprise at this point, unfortunate...

Was Biden Right to Take Prisoners Off Death Row?

Today's guest is Sister Helen Prejean, a Catholic nun famous for her activism against the death penalty. In the early 1980s, Prejean met a prisoner on death row—Elmo Patrick Sonnier—after an activist asked her to write him a letter. She served as Sonnier's spiritual adviser and accompanied him to his death, which inspired her work against capital punishment. Her 1993 book, Dead Man Walking, was made into a movie starring Sean Penn and Susan Sarandon, who won an Academy Award for her portrayal of Prejean. Jake Heggie and Terrence McNally also created a highly regarded opera of the same name.

Reason's Billy Binion spoke with Prejean about growing up in the segregated South, her opposition to the death penalty, how she connects with crime victims, and her response to Christians who believe the death penalty is just.

чаму беларусы забіваюць. 6 аргументаў супраць

Abe Bonowitz, Director and Co-Founder of the NGO "Death Penalty Action," talks about the death penalty in the United States and efforts to abolish it. He reflects on the fact that families, whose loved-ones have been murdered, struggle to find closure and having the responsible person on death row does not make that easier. It also creates tremendous trauma for people who have to carry out these executions. Abe calls on President Biden to finish the job he started when he commuted 37 prisoners from federal death row, but commuting the sentences of those who remain on death row in federal or military prisons.
