Team BLUE?

I never miss your podcast. Like ever. You all have been a beacon of light over the last two years of madness. I was dumbfounded when I heard Heather talk about Team Blue today. It was such an intellectual disconnect. The madness you have been highlighting… From the transgender movement to the WHO’s totalitarian policies to the Covid mandates to being deplatformed and censored???? These are ALL policies and practices advanced almost exclusively by Team Blue. I never expect to hear that you are capable of voting for Donald Trump… But team blue? How can you, in good conscience, walk into a voting booth and pull a blue lever, confirming that you want more of all of this madness? I am so sad today, because I have always looked to you both for objectivity and truth, not a team jersey. Wow.
