Praise and Gratitude

So I devote considerable time into all of the things I think the President has done well. I share why I’m both grateful and why that gratitude has a limit. I also talk about a common but ridiculously short-sighted argument against religion and the curious case of a self-driving car. Here is the article from the Wall Street Journal [https://www.wsj.com/opinion/religion-and-the-right-to-be-left-alone-7cc4b803]that was mentioned in this episode.

I also discuss a story that might have been the biggest story of the year that most of us might have missed. Finally I give Donald Trump the attention he’s been desperately asking to receive. I tackle accusations of genocide and blasphemy against the President.

Trust the Science?

It might be a great crutch to win an argument, it could end up hurting a lot of people if misapplied. I dive into the misadventures of Paul Ehlrich [https://thedispatch.com/article/paul-ehrlich-was-wrong-about-everything/?gift_key=92965f7d7f330741&gift_ref=3888552&utm_source=giftlink&utm_medium=copy_link&utm_campaign=membergift] and a number of medical associations quietly changing their recommendations [https://archive.is/2026.02.24-181110/https://www.nytimes.com/2026/02/24/opinion/medical-associations-youth-gender-care.html#permid=149120174]. I mention professional corn hole player Dayton Weber. Here’s a link to the video [https://www.youtube.com/shorts/0QmPjTkX70Q] I mentioned. The post Trust the Science?
