With John Yoo, who accuses Lucretia and Steve of being closet monarchists, back from his jungle adventures in South America (albeit without any archeological relics to satify his Indiana Jones fantasies) and sitting in the host chair this week, the gang offers its two cents on the latest GOP debate (someone—guess who?—is not impressed with Nikki Haley), and the disappointing election results, which, Steve suggests, is like Twain's remark on Wagner's music ("it's better than it sounds"), though with the key takeaway that the GOP is doomed to more election night disappointments as long as it has a deer-in-the-headlines problem when it comes to abortion.
After reviewing a few new legal developments in the largehr Trump saga, we get down to exploring the mounting crisis of anti-Semitism, with an analysis of why this current eruption of anti-Semitism we're seeing nwo is not your grandfather's anti-Semitism, but is in fact ax expression of a much deeper problem with the maliganancy of the progressive left. College administrators who think they can weather the storm and wait for the fury to abate on its own are deluded.
We're going to retur next week with a sequel, and explain to everyone why a wholesale purge of leftist institutions is not a violation of free speech rightly understood, or merely "right-wing cancel culture," as the left and too many simple-minded libertarians think. Fire away (heh).

Keep talking about election cheating, guys. Very few things connected to American politics matter more than this.
It can no longer be reasonably doubted (by informed people) that some form of illegal activity was not only more than enough to flip swing states, but actually did.

Come on, @JohnYoo. In addition to the important response from Lucretia, you don't even have your premises right. The PN Commonwealth Court, the WI Supreme Court, and whatever courts were involved in confirming that Facebook money was used illegally have all confirmed massive 2020 election illegalities.

Admitting all these things would make John Yoo even more of a pariah in the legal and academic communities than he already is.
