John Hinderaker, founder of Power Line and President of the Center of the American Experiment, joins the show by phone to talk about the disturbing trend of misplaced empathy in modern America.
From the case of Lindsay Clancy, who murdered her three children, to the fatal stabbing of Erin Piacenti, a Bank of America vice president, in New York City, Seth and John explore how some individuals are being lionized for their violent actions, while others are ignored or even demonized. They also discuss how online personality Tucker Carlson has endorsed Democratic candidate Dr. Abdul El-Sayed in the Michigan U.S. Senate race and the changing American atmosphere ahead of the 25th Anniversary of the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks on the nation.
