I don’t care if Mark Zuckerberg is simply kissing up to the new King. His explanation is very good.

Our government’s representatives and their willing media accomplices are good at creating and taking advantage of hoaxes in order to manipulate the population.

Apparently, tariffs are a bad idea for all countries involved, because they raise the prices for all consumers. But maybe there is more to consider, like the politics between countries.

in a perfect world, all taxation would carefully avoid disturbing the free marketplace. However, in our imperfect world, taxation seems to have a lot more to do with politics than sound economics. Apparently tariffs are a form of taxation, and maybe even a little worse than our wild income tax. Let’s hope Elon Musk and Vivac Ramaswami can help our country approach flat income taxes and minimal cor...

Julie proposes three observations about the election. A full return of the positive masculine depicted in the election of Trump and particularly in his cabinet selections. Secondly she talks about the zigzag process between the left and the right political sentiments and how that's the natural flow between the instincts of warmth versus competence.

Rebroadcast of ep 35 There is plenty of Biden administration incompetence in our departure from Afghanistan. But the real problem is much bigger.

Reboardcast of ep 130 Julie reviews some research that suggests people have a pro-Black bias, including those from the Conservative side of the political spectrum. This type of finding complicates issues when it comes to trying to be fair to one group-- without being unfair to another group. The finding is contrary to the idea of oppressors and victims seemingly put forth in Critical Race Theory....

The new Texas law has us talking passionately about abortion again. It does not seem reasonable that a mother would have no rights the day after conception, or that the fetus should have no rights the day before the birth. It makes sense that we should decide as a society a certain point at which the fetus has rights. Follow Us : YouTube Twitter Facebook Tumblr or visit our website at CoffeeWithMi...

At a time when RFK Junior has inspiring us about the importance of free speech, Mark Zuckerberg further admits that the FBI pressured Facebook to censor important political content. This censorship was especially damaging, not only because it may have influenced the last presidential election, but also because it may have influenced decisions to involve the US in the Ukraine conflict.
