was going to be my last podcast before the vacation. It turns out, nope, I'm back. We're here.

It's a Monday. And we got a lot to talk about because some stuff happened over the weekend.

The biggest thing that happened over the weekend for the president of the United States was not the impeachment stuff. Because that stuff basically concluded last week. The Democrats finished their impeachment move. And then they were like, you know what? Not going to send it to the Senate. Not going to worry about it anymore.

In fact, just back in 2017, he wrote an entire piece about how President Trump's soul was in danger. So he has been very much on board with the President Trump is a very, very bad man, and therefore, because he's a bad

immoral man, he shouldn't be president trained for quite a while. Nonetheless, the media jumped on

this as though it was something new. And this is indicative about how the media cover these things.
