Joy Pullman: False Flag: Why Queer Politics Mean the End of America

Connection

Joy Pullman is the managing editor at The Federalist and the author of the book False Flag: Why Queer Politics Mean the End of America. Joy and I discuss everything from encountering and reckoning with truth, to the lack of maturity in today's culture, to why, despite what some say, America is not a pro-woman culture. We talk about how people can disagree and still love people, and of course, the transgender movement and other thoughts on her book.
