Today’s podcast takes up the astonishing effort by the research organization that found COVID masking to be ineffectual to deny that its own study said what its lead investigator says it said. (To follow the logic, listen to the podcast.) Also, jobs numbers and Chinese balloons. Eliana Johnson is in for Christine. Give a listen.

    ANYTHING (sorry) that keeps Donald Trump in the public eye, benefits Trump .and more crucially, the Democrats. Make him pay for his publicity. Just tell the truth- as you’ve done. Bless you.

    1) John’s comments about the economic experts always being wrong reminded me of William Goldman’s line about the film industry: “Nobody knows anything… Not one person in the entire motion picture field knows for a certainty what’s going to work. Every time out it’s a guess and, if you’re lucky, an educated one.”

    2) When I saw the Turfecki column this morning and read the absurd claim that the author of the study did not understand his own study, it brought to mind Josh Steiner — the Clinton Administration official who testified that he lied to his own diary.

    It also benefits the grifters – why do you think the Lincoln project is coming up with (very lame) nicknames for DeSantis?
