Well, it's taken a cultural shift and that's been driven by a lot of investigative work. And as you mentioned, we have to note that The Daily Wire, while certainly not alone in exposing this, often took the lead in several key ways. And I'd like to highlight a few of those moments. It's a pretty long list, so just bear with me here. Sure. Mm-hmm.

Then, as many of our listeners might remember, our 2021 investigation into the alleged cover-up by Loudoun County Public Schools of a boy wearing a skirt sexually assaulting a ninth-grade girl in a girl's bathroom alarmed parents and became a flashpoint in the national discussion. Matt Walsh has also been a major voice on this as well.

He starred in the Daily Wire documentary, What is a Woman?, which really galvanized the criticism of gender ideology. Walsh also posted an expose on Vanderbilt University's pediatric gender clinic offering these drugs and surgeries to children. That prompted Tennessee lawmakers to ban them. That legislation is now before the Supreme Court.

Right. This proved to be a crucial campaign issue that drew a lot of support for Trump. The trend of males encroaching on women's sports often came up. And that's something we've also highlighted on this show, where female athletes have been seriously injured by trans-identifying male players or lost out on victories or felt violated sharing a locker room with male teammates.

So again, we weren't alone, but The Daily Wire has approached this as an urgent issue that has needed to be exposed for what it is. And the tide appears to have turned now.

Thanks, John.

Thanks, John.

It looks like they might be hitting some resistance in red states. Florida and both North and South Dakota rejected ballot measures that would have legalized recreational marijuana. Here's Governor Ron DeSantis talking about how one big weed company put nearly $100 million towards the failed push for legalization in Florida.

In Nebraska, voters approved a measure allowing medical marijuana but not recreational cannabis. Currently, 24 states permit recreational use of marijuana and 38 states plus Washington, D.C. allow medical marijuana. As John mentioned, music icon Elton John called legalizing marijuana, quote, one of the greatest mistakes of all time.

He's been sober since 1990 and said he believes marijuana is addictive and leads to other drugs. It looks like he's not alone in that assessment.

While there's still broad support, about 57% of Americans support legalizing recreational marijuana as of March of this year, and only 1 in 10 say it should not be legal at all, even for medical purposes. We're over a decade into the push to legalize recreational pot, so it's been normalized in quite a few states by now.
