Boortz takes on the popular claim that the wealthy aren’t paying enough in taxes, arguing that the narrative doesn’t match reality. It questions how “fair share” is defined, critiques how the issue is portrayed in the media, and suggests that key facts are often overlooked in the broader political conversation about taxes and income inequality.

Boortz recounts challenging an AI response about whether juries can decide both the law and the facts in criminal cases. He highlights that AI can be wrong and should be questioned, while also discussing the concept of jury nullification and suggesting—somewhat tongue-in-cheek—how knowledge of this principle could help someone avoid jury duty in Georgia.

Boortz discusses the significant political influence of teachers’ unions, tracing their power back to a 1962 executive order by John F. Kennedy. He contrasts Florida’s push to hold unions accountable through recertification requirements with Oregon’s move to allow unions to sue groups informing workers of their right to opt out. His commentary highlights the growing divide between states on union control and worker choice.
