- Why cutting government spending is so tough in the first place. Sadly true.
- The USS Harry S. Truman (CVN 75) got bumped (ugly). I agree both that it's worrying that a new low-tech targeting method may have been revealed and that even if they are targets we need more aircraft carriers.
- The leadership grace of coach Buzz Williams. Good advice!
- Jonathan Turley: Critics prove Vance's point on anti-free speech movement. The pro free speech message needs to be repeated as often and as loudly as possible.
If you've been paying attention you have heard many of his points before but the fact the he said them to the very faces of the European leaders took courage and was historic. It was all common sense but many of these leaders have been sadly lacking it.
- Here is Vance's speech in full.

The vast majority of Americans polled (71%) say they weren't familiar with Minnesota Governor Tim Walz. That's quickly being remedied. Now you have to wonder if a new VP candidate will be chosen at the upcoming DNC convention in Chicago.
- Stolen valor? The retired Command Sergeants of the Minnesota National Guard basically call Walz a coward who quit rather than serve active duty in Iraq. Remember this whenever anyone calls him an Iraq vet. The letter states, "literally no one quits the position he was in, or quits the academy. Except him." basically calling him a coward not worthy of respect.
- JD Vance on Tim Walz. Can't wait for that debate.
- The widow of slain Minnesota policemen Josh Owen told Tim Walz not to attend her husband's funeral. "I don't appreciate people that don't support law enforcement."
- Tim Walz record on abortion is not something to be proud of.
Many a truth is said in jest. (Sorry - not sorry.)
- I'm an awful person for laughing at the comparison
- Weird
- All I want for Christmas is for Pete Buttigieg to be named VP

- Can JD Vance's Populist Crusade Succeed? Wanting lower taxes, smaller government, legal immigration and being anti-illegal immigration is not "populist" but being pro-common sense. Big difference. I too recommend Marc and Ben's podcast but make up your own mind. I thought they made some good points.
