Is Kamala “Weird?”

Written by Ecce Verum

As I mentioned in a recent article, Kamala’s appeal comes from portraying herself as a more normal, mainstream, and civil choice than Trump. As she remarked to one audience,

“a lot of what I think is happening . . . is that people are exhausted about the division and the attempts to kind of divide us as Americans.”

And, when running against someone as idiosyncratic as Trump, it’s an obvious—and pretty smart—marketing choice.Continue Reading

Divisive Transgender Sleeper Issue May Cost Democrats Votes

Written by Robert Knight

Critics rightly interpreted this as an anti-parent bill aimed at bringing in minors from other states who request puberty blockers, cross-sex hormones and surgery.… Continue Reading

No longer with Vox, Yglesias runs his own podcast and Substack newsletter, farming for attention with provocative posts on his X account.… Continue Reading
