Another (quite minor) typo above: Heather MacD, not McD.

That’s true. Nina Teichholz has done very good work and doubtless saved more lives than Friend Fauci through her nutritional journalism. One can only imagine her likely politics when it comes to other things though. One begins to feel some sympathy for Stalin having to stay up late at nights deciding whether to Babel or Shostakovich the more interesting cases.

And, legal specialists, the liberal Dersh, the Righty Wm. Jacobson, and the harder-to-pigeonhole Turley, all of whom earned stripes as *non-hacks* in the RussiaGate etc. matters.

And, of course, we have harder-to-pigeonhole folks, esp. of the IDW, e.g. B. Weinstein, Haidt, H. Pluckrose, Jas. Lindsay, and Peter Boghossian.
And, more specialized folks (e.g. on nutrition, finance), like N. Teichholz, Gary Savage, and C. Kresser.

Typo correction of my first post above: “if you Run into liberals….”

Other Righties of, by my lights, major stature, include M. Anton, J. Curry, J. Krein, Craig Pirrong, and Heather McD.
Righties of, in my view, lesser overall stature include sundance, Sailer, A. Chua, A. Fekete, and FoFoA.

MollyG, when you run into such brats, you’d best move on, but if you tun into liberals w/ more manners, you may counter with:
“Ok, websites like Slate, Salon, the Intercept,…, but not such Substack folks as Greenwald, Taibbi, Weiss, or such sane Left folks/ sites as Consortium News, Truthdig, Paglia, M. Hudson, or Moskos, or such sane Right folks/ sites as M. Wauck, Codevilla. Kunstler, J.M. Greer, or Sowell?”

Once one gets past the above-listed Lefties, and the others (e.g. Chomsky, Tracey) who got the what-should’ve-been-obvious RussiaGate zoo correct, the Left’s “bench” is rather shallow, compared to the Right’s “bench.
This bench includes J.E. Dyer, Denninger, the Derb, A. Kaschuta, and Gottfried.

A much above even the great VDH columns.
My thought is the Deep State wanted a fake, no powered leader to run their government entities without interfaces.
And asking the Socialists in the world to help them is only asking for trouble.

The illegitimate Biden administration is a biproduct of the madness. Allowing the fraudulent election result to stand and hoping that the whole thing is just a phase will work about as well as California’s lax shoplifting laws. Permitting lawlessness and fraud only begets more of it.

Art Deco,
No problem. That describes my late father to a T. Strategic Air Command air crew and later war planner, 152 combat missions in Vietnam, Distinguished Flying Cross, seven awards of the Air Medal. Of course my father grew up in a log cabin without electricity or running water up the Mohawk Valley north of Eugene so maybe that generation was tougher than mine.

But it also sounds like a millennial friend of my kid. I know he can kill because he shot and killed a cougar in the last year or so (6.5 Creedmoor for the curious). He was also in line to see Milo Yiannopoulos in Seattle a few years back when Antifa attacked the people in line and was maybe 20 feet away from the Antifa punk that got shot so I know he has already seen leftist violence up close and personal.
