Was a White House Boxing Match the Right Call? Braver Angels on Civility and Immigration | 06-16-26

Sam Bushman opens with a question few are asking: Was a boxing match on the White House lawn the right way to celebrate America's 250th anniversary? Then, co-founder of Braver Angels, David Lapp, joins to dig into what real disagreement looks like in a healthy Constitutional Republic. They cover Sam's Justice and Mercy Immigration Plan, what happens when 7 conservatives and 7 liberals spend 5 hours together in a room, E-Verify, DACA, a path to citizenship, and why civil discourse is not about giving up your convictions. Plus, the Braver Angels national convention is coming to Philadelphia June 25-28. BraverAngels.org
