Yes, when Democrats controlled the White House and the Senate, the nation between 1960 and 1990 experienced the most leftwing court in memory. I don’t recall any serious conservative effort to pack or change the court.

From An Angry Reader, Part One: You place the lying, phony, anti-Democracy Donald J Trump along with the maniacal J D Vance as the potential saviors of the US? Lies and more lies. And you have the hubris to claim that Kamala can’t get a word out of her mouth because she is so stupid.

Victor, I cannot reconcile the facts surrounding the Biden surrender/Harris surge regarding the Democrat presidential candidate except to suspect this did not unfold per the desire of the party elites.

Many of your arguments against left wing ideology have struck deep, being raised by baby-ber’s in the organic/antroposophic mindset

Professor Hanson, I am a regular listener to your podcast. I really enjoy your opinion on things and your down to earth character. Although, I am not anyone special or someone with a large following on any platform but, I believe you would be open to a discussion regarding Joe Biden’s mental health.

7. This part of the world is not unlike the convoluted history of the former Yugoslavia. Crimea itself had been part of the Ottoman Empire but was annexed to Russia in 1783 by Catherine the Great. It remained Soviet until the USSR’s breakup in 1991 (Note that the Russians lost over 500,000 casualties vainly trying to save Crimea from the Nazis in
