told CNN’s Fareed Zakaria Sunday of the GOP’s sentiment against CRT and cancel culture. “It’s hard to not be angry about people that try and distract from the real things that people face with weaponized nonsense.”Stewart argued that hiding behind heavily politicized issues like CRT come not from politicians truly believing these topics are the reason for issues, but instead originate from a lack of “governing ideas” that might serve to address the deep-rooted problems the nation faces.“What would you do if you were out of governing ideas?” Stewart posed to Zakaria.
“If you didn’t know how to govern a country of this magnitude, in a country of this diversity, and you basically are running on government is broken. And then when you get in office, you have to be terrible to prove the original premise.”While Stewart said this “purposeful distortion field” doesn’t necessarily work — pointing to President Joe Biden’s win over the Republican party — it does prompt an emotional response as “it gets people upset, it gets them angry [and] it makes them fearful about threats and hyperbole.”While members of the Republican party get wrapped up in this fear, Stewart reminded audiences that CRT and diversity initiatives exist as a “salve” that works to “pacify and mollify” the nation because “we refuse to actually fix the real problem.”“We won’t actually dismantle the vestiges of all the systemic racism and all the systemic classism and all the systemic gender issues,” Stewart continued.

charged with 34 felonies for, among other things, conduct related to the hush money payment he made to porn actress Stormy Daniels, using campaign funds, in 2016.Wood was, at that point, focused on the fact that Trump got to skip most of the indignities accused felons normally face after surrendering to police– for instance, he wasn’t handcuffed, authorities didn’t take a mug shot, and he wasn’t strip searched, as is normal procedure in most jurisdictions including New York.“For the sake of this country, I hope Donald Trump gets a swift trial. But that doesn’t mean he should get to use the TSA pre-check. But, here’s the good news: The New York investigation is just one of many into the former president,” Wood said.
