Jared, I'm not too sure people think enough about politics, at least not deeply and thoughtfully. Most watch MSM news and let them do all of the thinking and analysis for them because it's easier. About Tucker, populist or not, it was a whole lotta envy and perhaps fear that yanked him off of the perch as the #1 cable new show.

I cannot get over the lack of personal responsibility that is evident today across the entire population. parenting can be difficult, but there is a very clear baseline, I have found, and that is teach your children right from wrong and teach them to take responsibility for their actions. everything else follows from there.

as to all the haters out there, Taylor Swift said it well, "haters gonna hate" but that will never change.

"the mark of a good person is a man who allows himself to experience joy at someone else’s achievement." Best part of the essay.

Love it Jared. Great stuff. The haters that DM you mean stuff; shit stains. Small, irrelevant stuff to a giant. Keep striding, my man.
