Bourbon Talk Political Q&A Livestream TONIGHT at 8pm Eastern
Hey everyone, just a head’s up: I’m doing a livestream tonight at 8pm Eastern here: April 21st, 2024 Bourbon Talk Livestream.
I’ve been getting a lot of messages from people asking if I could do one of these and talk about what’s going on at Columbia, in Gaza, with Republican calls for violence, and a whole host of things. Thought it would be good to check in, get people together, and go over this stuff.
Hope you can make it tonight. This is an absolutely vital moment and we need to get on the same page. If you have questions or suggested topics, please reply to this post or email me at jysexton@gmail.com.
More later this week. I’m working on the final installment of The Stakes series (Part I dug into the authoritarian agenda for the future, Part II discussed the 2024 Presidential Election and long-term considerations, and Part III examined why our media and political classes get all of this so very, very wrong).
You must be psychic - I was looking through my YouTube subscriptions last night, and was thinking about how much I could use another Bourbon Talk right about now! They really are a wonderful gathering...thank you for sharing your insights and perspectives. Cheers!🍸
yay! i read an article this morning regarding the case before Supreme Court - camps in Grants Pass, Oregon and the town trying to ban people from sleeping outside. As i read it, my mind went more and more to all the effort being taken to ban public camping/sleeping in cars and there appearing to be no effort to find creative solutions - besides developers building more housing with a portion being "affordable" and that wasn't directly mentioned.
i read of the progressively more expensive fines that could lead to incarceration; then i think of states that are using people in prison as essentially free labor.
horrible policies and approach. cannot help but think there is a plan behind all this madness and it is not good.
