On this episode of Crosspolitic at AmFest 2025, Knox, Toby, and Gabe welcome Ryan Walters, former Oklahoma State Superintendent turned Teacher Freedom Alliance president, on to talk about the issue of teachers unions funneling hundreds of millions in dues to fund Democrat campaigns and why gutting union membership in all 50 states is the key to taking back America's schools.

ABOUT CROSSPOLITIC
CrossPolitic exists to put Jesus over Politics and reclaim the public square through bold, joyful, biblically grounded media. We confront the chaos discipling America and build the next generation of Christian media infrastructure. Our mission is simple: all of Christ for all of media for all of America. Mainstream media is collapsing. Eighty-seven percent of journalists identify as progressive, and even many conservative outlets prioritize profit over principle. Meanwhile, billions of hours of digital content are discipling the world every day. CrossPolitic stands in that gap, producing courageous, entertaining, truth-filled media for households, churches, and leaders across the nation.
