There’s a lot of big news stories out there, and we cover them both in this episode.
Tipping the Scales
A monologue episode from Michael about the self-interest of politicians and bureaucrats and the push-and-pull for power between social media and governments.
Imperial Augurs
This episode abounds with profound political prognostications. Well, they may not be profound, but that sounds better than ‘predictable predictions.’ We review the potential for an Afghan withdrawal, war with China and Black Sea aggression. Then, we finish with courts, trials, doctrines and precedents, including some prophecy.
A Few Red Flags
We start with the weather, just to ease into things. We assess the White House’s ‘actions’ on reducing gun violence. We include what we believe to be the real purpose of these very minor ‘actions.’ We make sure everyone realizes there was an Executive Order published today to reassess the Supreme Court. Then, we close on a decision this week from the European Court of Human Rights which could foreseeably affect your children in the future.
