Caleb explains a theological conflict within Protestantism that has led to some Christians supporting Israel in their conflict and some opposing them. In a new Breaking the Internet, a meme goes around equating Israel citing a historic claim to the land like ancient Rome claiming modern England as its land today.

Ep. 327- Lie #2: The Needs of the Collective Outweigh the Needs of the Individual
In his series of final episodes, Caleb breaks down the biggest lies that the left tells at the fundamental level. In this episode, he takes on a lie that is the underpinning of most of the left's political stances, that the needs of people at large are more important than individual liberties. Caleb explains why holding individual liberties as sacred and inalienable is not only good for individual people, but society at large.

Ep. 315- One Nation Under God
It's the Tactics Independence Day Special! Caleb discusses the influence of Christianity on the Declaration of Independence signed July 4th, 1776. Dr. Mark Hall, Professor of Political Science at George Fox University and author of "Did America Have A Christian Founding?" joins the show to discuss the influence of Christianity on the Founders. Caleb does a countdown of the top 20 most American songs of the modern era. The National Archive's task force on racism (yes, that is a thing) decides the rotunda housing the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution is wrought with "structural racism" and should include "trigger warnings" and interpretative dance. American Olympian Gwen Berry protests the national anthem at the U.S. qualifications, claiming she was "set-up," and Biden's press secretary defends her.
