There is no "normalizing" you know who, it's just pretending it's okay with you that 39% of the country loves fascism. In other news the Biden campaign wins a "Don't Sugarcoat It Award."

A letter from a listener leads us to ask whether anyone left of center can use the word "independent" about themselves. Plus the Hunter Biden verdict isn't the worst thing ever, and we've got some words for Pope Alito and his wife.
