The Esau McCaulley Podcast - Trump Attacks Immigrants (again), Myths About Black Violence, and the Purpose of Marriage

Trump's latest comments on immigration turn a single tragic incident into a sweeping indictment of entire communities. Esau, Malcolm, and Mike examine why some crimes are framed as isolated events while others are weaponized to justify exclusion. They then dig into new research on crime shows that consistently misrepresent Black communities as dangerous, exploring how entertainment shapes public fear and reinforces old myths that refuse to die. Finally, a surprising essay about "good divorces" sparks a deeper conversation about the purpose of marriage, the kind of love Christian marriage is meant to form in us, and why covenant isn't built on frictionless happiness. 0:00 - Theme Song 1:45 - Ragebaiting's the Word of the Year 5:30 - National Guard Shooting and Immigration 21:38 - Sponsor - Brooklyn Bedding - For a quality mattress, go to https://www.brooklynbedding.com and use promo code ESAU to get 30% off site wide! 22:22 - Sponsor - Exclusive $45-off Carver Mat at https://www.AuraFrames.com .
