After years of post-Floyd lawfare, is America now on track to heal? Meanwhile, the senatorial election in Texas rages between Republican Ken Paxton and Democrat James Talarico, the Left’s new “normal” guy: a football enjoyer, feminist Bible reader, and six gender believer.

II American Scapegoat: How a Corrupt Justice System Sacrificed Derek Chauvin to the Mob This is a public episode.
