Shownotes Transcript

In this episode of "Sara Gonzales Unfiltered," Sara delves into the disturbing trend of drag shows that welcome children, highlighting a recent event she attended in Dallas at the Broadway Music Hall. Despite explicit and inappropriate content, minors were in attendance, raising serious concerns about child protection laws in Texas. Sara discusses SB 12, a law passed by the Texas legislature to prohibit children from attending sexually explicit performances, and the ongoing legal battles that have kept the law from being enforced with Texas state Rep. Brian Harrison. Sara also discusses Mark Zuckerberg’s letter to Rep. Jim Jordan, in which he admits Meta/Facebook caved to pressure from the Biden-Harris administration and the FBI concerning stories on COVID and the Hunter Biden laptop story. Is his apology genuine? The conversation then shifts to a broader political landscape, including a discussion on Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton's recent legal victories against the Biden administration's immigration policies. Sara and her guests explore the ongoing challenges Texas faces in securing its borders and the federal government's failure to address the crisis. As part of the discussion, Michael Quinn Sullivan sheds light on China’s increasing influence in Texas, drawing from his new documentary, "Red Power: China’s Grip on the Future of Texas." The film exposes the dangers of relying on China for renewable energy and the implications for national security, particularly with Chinese ownership of land near critical military installations. In a lighter yet equally puzzling moment, Sara reacts to a Washington Post op-ed that labels Doug Emhoff, the second gentleman, as a "modern-day sex symbol." Sara dissects this claim, contrasting it with the real issues at hand in today’s political climate. Sara is joined by BlazeTV contributor Eric July, founder of Rippaverse Comics, and filmmaker Michael Quinn Sullivan.
