Notes from the road
Some comments on Biden, Musk's party, and Project Esther
Earlier this week I was road-tripping from Nashville to Denver. When I wasn’t hunting for a charging station or listening to an audiobook, a nerdy podcast, a mix tape, or Springsteen’s new 5,000-track album of previously unreleased material1, I recorded a few videos about some of this week’s political events. I posted them at Notes but I’m posting them here, as well.
Here’s one on the Republican obsession with running against Joe Biden.
Here’s one on the prospects for success for Elon Musk’s new America Party.
Here’s one on “Project Esther,” the coordinated effort to criminalize left wing social movements in the name of fighting “antisemitism.”
I hope you find these useful! I’m returning to more regular writing as I get re-settled.
My unpublished papers are not this good




Been working on a series on Project Esther. It's like a bad trip to the dentist because of how dense Heritage bullshit is written so I'm running long. Glad someone else is taking notice, though.
Loved your travelogue as you drove along, you should do more of these. So how long did it take you to go 1,300 miles? I drive last summer from Albuquerque to Tallahassee which was 1,400 miles in 23 hours. Longest non stop I had done in quite a few years. We are interested to know how many hours yours took. Also did you pick up one of those great flags with the slogan Come Take It From Me for your office, I have noticed you just have a bunch of empty shelves in your prior videos so I am sure you have some empty wall space.
