We had planned on discussing Trump’s coming indictment for his activities surrounding the 2020 election, but didn’t have time for it. We’ll get to it next week, by which time the indictment is almost sure to have been handed down.The conversation closes with a discussion about Taylor Lorenz, and whether I was correct to praise her bravery on Twitter.Listen here or watch on YouTube.Links:* Me on Substack Reads, Taylor Lorenz a few weeks later* Me praising Taylor Lorenz* Amy Wax and Jason Richwine arguing for immigration restriction This is a public episode.
