In today's podcast, we ask, "Are we experiencing a national divorce?" We begin by observing the increasing tendency of Americans to align with like-minded individuals and they are doing this in a different way. Marjorie Taylor Greene suggests that conservatives should consider moving to predominantly Red states. This is completely unrealistic, and this is in her character of gaslighting. Actually, conservatives are simply recalibrating their business practices, and are going into buildings that don't force you to wear 'safety gear,' and other absurd demands. We feel that somewhere between 25 to 30 percent of Americans are beginning this transition.
We then examine the political landscape, particularly focusing on the remarks by Tucker Carlson about the decline of self-governance. This is coupled with the bipartisan reauthorization of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA), which has sparked a debate on the balance between privacy and national security. This legislation was passed despite concerns over its potential to infringe on personal privacy, highlighting a significant division in priorities among lawmakers. This has caused even more challenges for the Biden Administration. Trump has capitalized on Joe Biden's decline in the polls, despite his inability to increase his own numbers, that is if you even believe the polls. See: CNN Poll Numbers & Trump and reflect on Off the Press's Take.
The discussion extends to the cultural sphere with references to former Runaways singer, Cherie Currie, who has openly criticized the political establishment, echoing the frustrations and skepticism prevalent among voters today Cherie Currie Denounces the Establishment. On the economic front, there is a noticeable shift towards alternative assets like precious metals and cryptocurrencies, as individuals seek stability in an uncertain economic climate: Inflation and Asset Management.
We also explore the implications of demographic changes and migration, discussed in the context of comments by Stephen Miller on the societal impacts of large-scale immigration. Additionally, the rise of alternative social media platforms like Gab and Steemit illustrate a move towards digital spaces that support free speech and offer economic incentives through blockchain technology, suggesting a shift towards a parallel economic system. We also highlight the great healthcare divide, and discuss the following article: Tracey Beanz: COVID Retrospective.
