Stocking the Cabinet

Our thoughts on Trump's cabinet picks

After reflecting on Daniel Jone’s departure from the New York Football Giants and Tim proposing a theory on quarterback development, we launch into Trump’s picks. Are they all serious or are they political Three Card Monty? Can you even be qualified to wrangle the federal bureaucracy? We share our thoughts on Dr. Oz, Tulsi Gabbard, and RFK Junior.

John offers his trivia question.

In this week’s Dispatch from America          , we salute an internet outlet that will be missed while we acknowledge the reality of creative destruction.

Tim highlights the Four B movement.

John’s hero demonstrates that the laws must be for everyone.

Ideas first
Bald, Blind, and Buddies
Two buddies, one a bald graduate of the London School of Economics, and the other, a blind psychiatrist offer their vastly different takes on life and current issues. They model friendship that thrives in the arena of ideas where they take their ideas seriously but not themselves or each other.
