Episode 005: Why Is There No Fort Grant – California Mask Rebellion – Religious Freedom Sham
In this episode, Doug asks why there are no military bases named for President Ulysses S. Grant who won the civil war for the north and the weak arguments people make to support keeping Confederate symbols. He talks about the wild complaints about wearing masks one California county government heard, and then shines a bright light on efforts of Christian nationalists to force religion in the public schools in Ohio under the cover of COVID-19 and religious freedom.
