Dear God this legit actually happened after I tweeted this yesterday... 😭 Image
This is not getting enough attention. I jokingly predicted (1) Boebert would use a very simple sign calling for Biden to exit the presidency and (2) that she would misspell a very simple word on said sign in doing so.

She has now done both the very next day after my prediction.
Perhaps it just isn’t that remarkable because this type of thing was simply too predictable from Boebert.

But, still... in the universe of dumb things a member of Congress like Boebert *could* do, I completely nailed the one she actually did.

I guarantee you Trump Jr. or Candace Owens would win this race if they got serious about it. No doubt in my mind.

They are built for this party.
@RealCandaceO’s support would double overnight immediately after she announced. Would be a media craze. She would ham it up to all the right constituencies. Low energy Cruz and DeSantis wouldn’t be able to keep up.

And Don Jr is energetic, but not as smart...
All the right people would attack her candidacy: Mitch McConnell, Kevin McCarthy, Ronna McDaniel, the always candidates (Cruz, Rubio, Paul), and Noem would feebly try to call her out for lack of experience—which no GOP voter cares about.

The GOP has taken a disturbing anti-military & anti-US intelligence turn in the last two years or so. It’s sharp.
Tucker jumped on Gen. Milley for his saying he reads books. He called him a “pig.”

They routinely go after the military as “woke.”

They distrust almost immediately anything our FBI and other intelligence agencies say & Trump praised the KGB.

That is not a pro-America posture..
They like to say they are “America First”—but “America” for them almost never includes the institutions that are American. Things like the Constitution, the military, our intelligence, our DOJ, our judges, elections, our economy—they distrust almost everything about our country.

Nowhere in this statement does Ricketts explain what he means by critical race theory—he just refers to his own broad conception of its effects.

That’s by design—& it’s a dangerous precedent for policing ideas.

“If you’re white, you’re evil” is not CRT. No one is teaching that.
If by banning CRT, Ricketts means that race can’t be discussed as an explanatory variable for historical events—it seems he’d have trouble teaching the 3/5s Compromise or Jim Crow or sit-ins or much of America’s 20th century progress.

Race is part of our story—good, bad & ugly.
Alternatively, if by no CRT Ricketts means the unobjectionable point that we can’t instruct students in public schools that white people are evil b/c they are white or that America is evil because of racism among its citizens—then of course, literally no one disagrees with him.

A center-right policy *agenda* distinct from Trumpism, but rooted in principle:

—Roll back tariffs for good trade agreements
—Fix & Fund the Police
—Modernize every federal agency by 2035
—Actual border security (soft tech) + increase in ALJs/asylum processing
—Federalism 2.0
—“Womb-to-Tomb” defense of life, includes abolishing death penalty
—“Health” reform that increases supply & reduces demand of healthcare
—Market-driven climate action, with a push for safe nuclear
—Renewed US global leadership; strong pressure on tyrants & human rights abusers
—Pay down debt w/ balanced budgets (e.g., lower spending & stop deficit tax cuts until we make headway)
—“Solvency & Sustainability” for the Social Safety Net (reform it for 21st century)
—Fix schools, pay teachers, reduce admin
—Workforce 2040: Train, Equip, Prepare

What else??

I may be naive, but instead of government indiscriminately destroying tech companies based on political vendetta & Tucker Carlson’s rants, I’d rather gov’t collaboratively harness tech innovation to modernize itself & its oversight capabilities. Tech should be a US strength.
I mean, yes—Big Tech isn’t perfect. It does bad things largely because it’s making decisions of first impression that only the product designers at these companies understand. Government should catch up and participate.

But, Tech has also literally changed the world in 5 years.
There’s also a huge NatSec factor for letting our tech sector continue to do it’s thing. The global leader of the next century will be the country with the deepest tech capabilities—& Silicon Valley is our ace in the hole. It has both scale & dynamism if we preserve it & use it.
