    Episode 178-Part 1: Joe Biden and the Classified Documents Revelation; Part 2: Kevin McCarthy As Speaker

    enJanuary 11, 2023

    About this Episode

    In part one of this episode of the National Crawford Roundtable podcast we discuss Joe Biden's Classified documents revelation.  How serious is this story?  How similar or different is it from Trump's Classified documents history?  Hillary's?  How should House Republicans handle this?  Part two of the podcast will be a discussion of what it means to have Kevin McCarthy as Speaker of the United States House of Representatives.  With McCarthy caving and agreeing to the Freedom Caucus demands,  does that mean we are better off than we would have been without these demands being met?  Should Bob and John  re-think their anti-20 opposition and accept that maybe Lauren Boebert, Matt Gaetz and Company were right after all?  Is it possible that Bob or John could be wrong!?!  Will McCarthy be a good speaker?  Will he be able to rally the Establishment RINOs on some Legislation or has a monster now been created where they become purists who perpetually fight and block anything to the left of Jim Jordan?

    Post Roe Abortion, and Can Conservative Politicians Save America?  It appears that Trump would support a 16-week abortion ban.  Is that enough  to  hang on to 100% of the Pro-Life vote?  Is it too weak? Will independent or undecided  voters think it is too restrictive?  Also, what if God's plan for the Church in America doesn't hinge on Donald Trump?  Will anyone in the Church embrace that?  Have so-called Evangelical Conservative/Republican voters been a good representation of Christ and the Gospel?

    Episode 229-The Changing Virtues in American Society

    Episode 229-The Changing Virtues in American Society

    Episode 229-The Changing Virtues in American Society: While most Americans no longer hold a biblical worldview regarding morals and values, neither do the majority of professing Christians.  The National Crawford Roundtable looks at this and several stories reported over the last few days that allow us to address this phenomenon.  The guys review the resignation of Harvard President Claudine Gay over plagiarism charges and the reasons her credentials went largely unchecked until now.  They also look into the in-depth analysis of the fact that more Progressives are changing their tune on the National Debt, wondering if there might be such a thing as too much of it.  And what about a new report that Gen Z young adults have given up on the so-called "American Dream" and are more apt to adopt an "enjoy life now' mentality rather than build for the future?  Is hard work no longer an American virtue?  If so, how do Christian Conservative Americans work to reverse this trend?  How is this impacting the Church and the professing Christian community on the whole?
