That was very interesting. I have a variation of his opinion about how many people want their free speech. As long as our society is functioning to provide opportunity, mobility, stability and security, the majority do want their freedoms. but when all of the above is undermined and thrown out, people get desperate and start turning on one another. The conditions for this upheaval were created with malice. I'm maintaining hope that the malicious in power went too far too fast, and the changes in the republican party are a good indication of my view. The diverse crowd coming together with Trump warms my heart, while the hive mind moving as a cloud of locusts on the left is going to hit an atmospheric tornado come November 5th. That is my hope.
Another very interesting post. Well, the big election is on Tuesday. We need to pray for wisdom for the voters and for protection from election fraud. But remember that, whatever happens, God remains in charge. End times are coming one way or the other, but Trump can delay some of the decay while Harris will hasten it.
Very interesting convo. Currently reading ‘The French Intifada’ - it paints a terrifying picture of what’s going on in France with their radicalized immigrant populations. I knew there were issues of anti-semitism in Europe, but I had no idea murder was basically a guarantee if Jews ventured into or attempted to live in certain areas of the suburbs of Paris for example. I didn’t realize the extent of the issues (we have not lost order to this degree here in the USA).
Also would you consider doing a regular informal low effort sort of note of some kind that basically is a round up the most interesting interviews/articles/info rabbit holes you’re going down?
Yes, actually I did one for September and now October is behind us and I haven't done one yet. With so much going on right now I'm not sure I can get one done in the next few days, but I really like the idea so I'm glad you brought it up.
Jenny, can you email me your Spiked article from Oct. 13? I would like to share it with a few friends but I can't in the format it's in for Spiked. Thanks!
Decisions are clearly being made elsewhere. The U.S. hasn't had a president for at least the past few months, and for the three years prior to that, we had, as Mr. Harnwell called them, incompetent morons in the White House.
Whenever I hear phrases like "tool kit", "task force", "fact checked", or "peer reviewed", the needle on my bullshit radar immediately goes off the dial.
I know people who get everything they know from NPR. They are quivering like excited puppies over the prospect of Harris becoming president tomorrow. Reasoning with such people is impossible.

Very interesting perspective, thanks for sharing.
Yes the people around Trump are what warm me to his project more than the war hawks on the left. Always been a big fan of Tulsi Gabbard.
Yes -- his most vocal supporters are his greatest assets. Let's just pray he continues to listen to them if he wins.

Also your interviews are always a good listen!
