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.
Josh, I just have to say that I am a tough person with a very specific sense of humor. I am awarding you THE......
#MontyPythonSchoolOfBritishWitLitAWARD of TEN 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 (count ‘em) 10 out of 10 laughey-face (I know laughey isn’t a word as I am a bonafide GrammarNazi) emoticons as YOU absolutely had me literally “laughing out loud” (it felt great in a very Benny Hill sort of way) throughout the entirety of your video, from START to FINISH! It takes a great wit to make me even chuckle, but YOU, no YOU were able to tap into the twisted, jaded psyche of my complex mind throughout the whole video!!! I have not laughed that hard since I watched Ricky Gervais’ 2020 Golden Globes opening beating, er, roast, I mean opening Monologue. I am extremely relieved that no one else was around me to see me laugh/cry to the point of having to visit the W.C./loo/bidet/place where one relieves oneself😭. I am truly proper chuffed (UK version) and wanted to tell you that YOU need your own comedy show/political pundit comedy hour along with your sidekick Kevin(?) -- I didn’t see him but I know all the greats have geniuses behind the camera. I am happy to point out that by God’s grace, my parents named me Erin and not Karen (come to Jesus moment). Mind you, I am not giving any people named Karen a side-eye/slant. However, I must say that since that Urban Dictionary description came about, I HAVE noticed a few traits exhibited by people with this moniker.
To conclude this small missive, I am saying THANK YOU as after I watched the entire “shew” (as the late Ed Sullivan used to pronounce ‘show’ which annoyed the 🤬 out of me).
Yaaas, Josh, yaaaas, you keep being your bad a$$ self as HUMOR mixed with the Truth is truly what we need more of.
I’m signing up!!
YELP rating A++++++
