Alex examines Sarah Huckabee Sanders’ (non) controversial Medicaid ad and expresses concern about the Republican Party’s growing focus on race, immigration, gender, and other culture-war issues, particularly the rise of white nationalist rhetoric within the movement. He explores the history of the “welfare queen” stereotype and the racial politics surrounding public assistance, before turning to FBI Director Kash Patel’s engagement to country singer Alexis Wilkins. Alex also takes a skeptical look at Wilkins’ political persona and background, using the relationship as another lens through which to examine the evolving politics of the modern conservative movement.
