What War is Good For

Any advanced country has been through enough wars to understand that ultimately, what happens in war is the poor people are sent to die. In some cases, war is necessary. When we think about Afghanistan and Ukraine and other conflicts, then messaging matters, and nobody knows this better than the members of Congress who are continually trying to repaint history. For example, Kevin McCarthy, the Spineless, wasted little time trying to pin the surrender of America to the Taliban on Biden, when the deal was negotiated by Donald Trump. Why?

Coincidentally, the same members of Congress, now that said McCarthy is in a leadership position and has MTG as his heavy, he’s wasting no time in doing more of the same in Ohio, when, again, it was Trump who made the strategic failure with his regulatory rollbacks.

This is a tactic of people without moral foundation and devoid of ideas. And these are the people currently in charge of one of the most powerful institutions in the world. If that doesn’t make you nervous, it should. And another thing that should make you nervous? What do you think Tucker Carlson is going to do as the sole owner of 44k hours of video footage? And a better question is: why would Kevin McCarthy give said footage to Carlson?

Questions they don’t want you to ask.
