1: The Genesis Episode

Gen Z Perspectives on Foreign Aid and Economic Hardship

A series of clips from a Charlie Kirk roundtable features Gen Z Christians expressing frustration over U.S. taxpayer dollars being sent to Israel and Ukraine. The young speakers argue that domestic issues, such as border security and housing affordability, should take priority over foreign military subsidies. Adam Curry points out a discrepancy in their understanding of the scale of aid, noting that Ukraine has received significantly more funding in a shorter period than Israel has since 1948.
