    You may have noticed we've been repping TN State Rep. John DeBerry lately. There's a couple of reasons for this. One is that he's a good guy. The other is that what happened with his campaign this year shows a lot about what's wrong with our political system.

    No. They are keeping their true believers happy. Advocacy media serve people living in concrete silos.

    The silence from et al after ’s interview with Tony Bobulinski is deafening. The charges are on the record and backed with documentation. Voters should be allowed to judge them for themselves. Not to cover them is journalistic malpractice.

    Let’s try that again:

    If you’re a Brubeck-Desmond fan, try not to tear up at the end of this Webb-Garfunkel gem: the alto sax great’s last recording.

    I’m sure it was just a bad algorithm

    Millions of people watched Tucker Carlson's explosive interview with Tony Bobulinski -- and not once did it trend on Twitter. Mighty shameful.

    What does say?

    Tonight's interview w/Tony Bobulinski is the beginning of the end for Joe Biden. A career of grifting, of trading influence and access -- until in utter desperation he accused a career naval officer of working with the Russians against his country. Oops.

    What does say?

    The point the Bobulinski interview makes clear is that Biden has never refuted the facts he is asserting. Just like Hunter has never said the emails aren’t real. They just keep hyperventilating about “Russian disinformation” like that’s an acceptable answer. It’s not.

    What does say?

    How is Tony Bobulinski not trending on Twitter? If someone was exposing Trump the way he is exposing the Bidens I can guarantee you Twitter would be PROMOTING it. What’s going on? RT!

    Talkin’ to people: 2016 was vote against Hillary. 2020 is, Tried that, now vote against Trump, or, Well I have no choice but to vote for Trump again. Not hearing folks who are uncertain.

    So, Ginger or Mary Ann? Vote.

    After 2 weeks of multiple health screens and asking everyone to quarantine, I surprised my closest inner circle with a trip to a private island where we could pretend things were normal just for a brief moment in time.

    Wait: How does one pull off a dangerous illiberalism with almost zero connections to the centers of cultural power?

    The English language has not superlatives sufficient to describe the hathos to be had reading this review of LIVE NOT BY LIES. It is without question my favorite review of all time. It was written by Myrna Minkoff. It stiffened my giblets, for sure.

    My (column) Tuesdays have been very, very similar for, oh, about 32 years.

    Just another normal Tuesday. I figure we'll have another one next week.

    Interesting fact about the New Politics: favoring the rich & the the working class: the workers of South give a majority of their political donations to Trump while ultra-wealthy Upper East Side overwhelming favor Biden with their donations.

    Amy Coney Barrett is going to be an outstanding justice. She has the potential to be better than Scalia (he was tremendous, but there were holes in his jurisprudence — *cough* Employment Division v. Smith *cough*). She’ll also be less revolutionary than some folks hope (and fear)

    Make that “doesn’t have to lead into” ...

    Replying to @philvischer
    Of course churches are marred by system racism. Our whole world is systemically fallen. Believing that doesn’t lead into dangerous waters.

    Uh.

    I will go ahead and admit that I've written a few articles over the years that even I didn't bother to read.

    Doctrine. In terms of history, evangelical is not a political term.

    Replying to @tweetmattingly @DougTenNapel and 2 others
    I can’t respond to an undefined term. (Left of what? Theologically, culturally or politically?) I am definitely on the side of treating one another with love.
