  Ashley St. Clair's Gift to the Democrats

  May 30, 202637 minS0

  <p>Ashley St. Clair is all of us. Well, she might not be you. She might not even be me. Although I see some of myself in her. But she is this mess we’ve built. Like all of us, she has played a role in this ongoing virtual Civil War between Left and Right, played out amid tangled algorithms, giant egos, hurt feelings, and cash flow. </p><p>She is the same age as my daughter, just 28 years old, but it feels like she’s lived five lifetimes. She has shapeshifted from MAGA to having Elon Musk’s baby, to a p...

  The Real "Autopsy" The Democrats Can't Face

  May 25, 202633 minS0

  <p></p><p>The 2024 election was a disaster for the Democrats. They have never been held to account for any of it. That would ordinarily be the job of the legacy media, but they’ve long since abandoned any pretense of objectivity. They are part of the “resistance,” and friendly fire is not in the job description.</p><p>Do I sound bitter? I suppose I am. I once believed in not just the Democratic Party but the Obama coalition. I was a loyal, devoted soldier who believed we were all fighting the good fight, even before Trump won. We were t...

  The Odyssey Proves Woke Is a Feature, Not a Bug

  May 17, 202623 minS0

  <p>[A crosspost with Hollywood Woketopia, my other Substack]</p><p>Every so often, a moment in culture arrives, a Sydney Sweeney ad, or Project Hail Mary. </p><p>Every time, we hear that the Woke fever has finally broken. Hollywood cares about the people again. Right?</p><p>The same reason Kamala Harris is likely to be the nominee in 2028, the same reason the Democrats are still selling the lie that any kind of attempt by Republicans to even out the redistricting is “Jim Crow 2.0,” is proof enough that on the Left, Woke is not going anywhere. It is who...

  Interview with Jenny Holland

  May 15, 20261h 29mS0

  <p>Jenny Holland has been running a similar track to mine for the last five years or so, but she got there before me. We both were more or less red-pilled by Steve Bannon. Here, we had a conversation for about an hour and a half. I hate doing video because I have a face for radio. But Jenny looks great so I thought I would put it up anyway. Also, I think my camera’s focus was off a bit - but the audio works great. </p><p>I don’t have a timecodes but the transcript should appear.</p><p...

  Spencer Pratt is the Hero We Didn't Know We Needed

  May 12, 202635 minS0

  <p>“Now you know why they call me Dirty Harry, every dirty job that comes along.”</p><p>Just as audiences didn’t know how much they needed Dirty Harry until he showed up on a movie screen in 1971, residents of Los Angeles had no idea how much they needed Spencer Pratt until they saw him face off against two of the leading candidates for Mayor of Los Angeles, Karen Bass and Nithya Raman.</p><p>Bass and Raman couldn’t even answer simple questions, like whether illegal immigrants should be able to vote or whether there should be homeless encampme...
