This week on Disaffected, we talk about the American public's immature demands for politicians and presidents to give us mommy emotions. The calls for "empathy" are out of place in grown-up society and they should stay in the kindergarten classroom.
Then we'll look at a court case in Montana that's going to kick Mommy Statism into an even higher gear. A state court ruled for a group of "youths' who claimed the state government violated their physical and emotional health by promoting fossil fuels. And they won.
But first we're going to ask, who exactly is special prosecutor Jack Smith? We thought we knew when we sat down to write this show today, but we were wrong. And you'll find it amusing.

Merch idea: "I'm not a Karen, I'm a Barbra." I'd wear a button or a tshirt.
Another great show Josh but did you have to include that clip of Gavin Newsom? It induced severe gastric dyspepsia just as I was about to eat dinner. 🙂 But seriously, he is SO arrogant, like a lot of “educated” “handsome” men of his type. I put both those descriptors in quotes because I find him far from handsome, he’s positively reptilian IMO, and entirely soulless. He’s a classic member of the New Left, lording it over ordinary people who he clearly believes he has a right to ride roughshod over. You’re 100% right, he’s a sociopath. He wouldn’t survive 5 minutes in a debate with outraged parents. That journalist did an absolutely pathetic job of challenging him. What on earth are they learning in journalism school these days?
