Feels very weird hearing you mentioned Kari Lake without doing the voice.

I object to your use of the word whores instead of sex worker or prostitute. It comes with a negative connotation against women.

It’s certainly a provocative choice of words. The point is to create a maelstrom of judgment to see where people land.

Why do you hate whores? At least they have self worth unlike sluts! also who's to say whores are women? I know of many male whores. The hang up is yours not the words.

Also, clearly, it gets the people going.

Not stupid? Gaetz is a pedophile.... Sounds pretty stupid to me for getting caught up in that as a politician. Not sure how you can make him AG and suggest that he'll uphold the law with any semblance of even handedness

I like how each time he reads l3po it's old Internet speak for lepo as in what's a leppo. A reference to the Gary Johnson campaign imploding.

Justin, is it possible to turn on the audio function that I get on other substacks that will read the print section of each episode to us?

I’m not sure if that’s only a function of word-only content. FWIW this was the script for my monologue.

There’s another substack I follow that has embedded video, it just skips the video, Erick Erickson’s Show Notes.

I like that I’m not missing anything if I just skip it but I feel like if you emphasize that part of it by putting it in print, I should probably pay more attention to it.

On DOGE having 2 heads, I don't think I've heard anyone speculate this, but I think it is plausible deniability with all of Elon's conflicts of interest

I figured it was a hedge against Musk getting bored and wandering off to other things.

I mean what else is Elon doing?

Not so much "what else does he have going on" and more that I suspect he's got a short attention span when it comes to the boring work of implementation.
