Hands down one of THE best newsletters! Endlessly edifying, vexing and inspiring – like good writing should. I keep the ones that resonate in a folder in my Inbox – I'd much rather they were in a book. Give us the hits!
Because we want people to speak up against the shadows. We are living at times of unprecedented decadence in American politics. What a shame for the worlds most powerful country
I wonder if all the TDS people ever reflect back to pre-2015 and what they were doing with their lives before the media told them to hate Trump 24/7.
Were they happier back then?
Did they ever disagree with The Current Thing back then?
Have they ever noticed that there is a direct correlation between whatever The Current Thing being pushed is and that they have also (coincidently) been behind?
Media says hate Trump. Galloway hates Trump
Media says wear a mask, go on lockdown, take the shot. Galloway wears the mask, locksdown, takes the shot. Brags about how he is saving lives.
Media says hate ICE. Galloways hates ICE.
Media says Biden is sharp as a tact. Galloway says Biden is “a good man”.
Whatever The Current Thing is, the Left is behind it, lockstep, and then they go around bragging about how stunning and brave they are for obeying The Current Thing.
Has Galloway ever gone against groupthink and The Current Thing?
Honest quest.
Can anyone give an example where Galloway has gone against groupthink and The Current Thing in the past 10 years?

You have a blind spot as to how pedestrian and yawn worthy your predictable anti-Trump nonsense has become.
I appreciate - greatly appreciate - the knowledge based writing but tune out and don’t read the TDS flavored BS.
It’s very low quality thought and writing.
Why halve your audience. Run your lane.
Sorry facts hurt your feelings red. Don't kill the messenger, even though you can't comprehend the messages yet
Probably too subtle an insight. Love insights based on expertise.
Don’t love trailer trash mudslinging about politics. Not facts, amigo. No expertise.
Like mixing a tasty cocktail and adding a squirt of piss. Doesn’t improve the flavor.

Fine sentiment for a political substack. Move it over there.
Very moving post. I hope your sons will read at least this one. Thanks for being you!
Beautiful!
Happy Birthday 🥳
Love what you’re putting into the world, Scott. Carrying the torch for liberal, hard working, honest, Gen X Dads everywhere.
I started writing about getting older mostly so I could complain about it.
Lo and behold, putting the parts of aging that frightened, annoyed, or unsettled me into words changed my relationship to getting older.
It’s helped me understand myself and other people better, made it all feel a little less menacing and, dare I say, made me happier.
I certainly didn’t see that coming
Congratulations. I cannot believe it's been 10 years!
Thanks Scott
So you can write your next post on forgiveness. foreshadowing, as it is called in Ancient Greek tragedy
NM2 was my gateway drug to everything else Scott G. Thanks for keeping the writing fearless and good all these years.
Great post: Nice to see you as Angela Jamieson puts it; “ you are where your feet are”!
Scott this is a powerful post. Especially the end. Love is the answer indeed. Gonna go give my kids some hugs and then pick up the pen.

Stupidity is unbeaten. But we won’t shut our mouths. You trump fans are lunatics
Please provide an example where Galloway has gone against groupthink or The Current Thing in the past 10 years.
Just 1 example
Blah blah blah—and then that last graph stopped me in my tracks and touched my heart.
Congratulations on 10!
