Just Human #386
In this episode, we take a look at where the Midterm Blue Wave originated from.We now know that a huge group of people who did not vote in 2024 (because they weren't politically interested, disliked their options, were too young, whatever) showed up in large numbers to oppose the current thing. These voters broke hard for Democrats.Their #1 issue was the economy; they blamed the party in power for it and voted for change. They did not suddenly become Democratic Socialists, and they did not vote based on any sort of agreement with the policy positions of Democratic Socialists. They voted in opposition to the current situation as they perceived it: namely, concerns about the economy, corruption, immigration (specifically heavy-handed deportation practices), bad Republican candidates, and, to a lesser but not insignificant extent, the terrible messaging from the GOP and malign influences that pushed them towards Dems or not voting at all.And in that there is a white pill. Because the Blue Wave is not an ideological one but an oppositional, reactionary one, it does not represent a permanent Democrat vote block. We can win those voters, and we can win the next group of new voters, too.I hope you will join me in dealing with the midterm loss and the explanations for it directly. Most of all, I hope you will join me in stoicly moving forward and working towards winning back what we have just lost.The Just Human Podcast and Just Cases Newsletter are reader-supported publications.

Just Human #383
In this episode, we catch up on news in the Rep. Ilhan investigations (some small news items there and one VERY significant reveal by DOJ), and I introduce three new cases I’ll be tracking: the RICO case against Virginia State Senator Lucas and her family; a leak case involving a CIA contractor who fed classified intelligence to his girlfriend so she could write about it on Substack; and the case of two former senior FBI officials who allegedly made false statements to Congress in testimony about the Hunter Biden investigations and one of his laptops.The Just Human Podcast and Just Cases Newsletter are reader-supported publications.

Just Human #381
In this episode, I attempt to sort through news stories and statements regarding the reported slowdown, interruptions, and limitations on Starshield in the Russo-Ukrainian War. Musk says, “It wasn’t me.” Trump says, “It wasn’t me.” Media says, “It was Musk and Trump.” Zelenskyy says, “It’s still not fixed.” Pentagon says… nothing.Spoiler: we don’t actually figure out what happened or why, but the exercise of going through it all provides lessons in filtering news, comparing reports, and staying sober-minded in an environment that constantly begs you to get drunk on emotion and political bias.

Just Human #380
In this episode, I dig into who Rep. Ilhan Omar and her family are and find that investigators are examining at least four things right now: immigration fraud, her personal finances, her campaign’s finances, and her contacts with at least one foreign contact.I also look deeper into the Talarico Hoax and find strong ties to grifters, scammers, and perhaps even the SVR.Finally, I walk through the claims that Ukrainian strikes on Yandex data centers in Russia took out Russian bots and affected the viewership and engagement of dissident-right podcasters and similar figures.There are a few throughlines in this episode that I highlight repeatedly. One, check the source material, and assess its credibility before accepting the information as true and before sharing it with others. Two, there are influence ops everywhere; there’s a war for your mind, so you must keep your guard up at all times. Particularly against information and individuals who appear to be confirming what you may already believe. And third, do the right thing. Take the high road. It will keep your conscience clear and act as a shield against those influence ops.Timestamps 00:00 Introduction09:30 Update on the Rep.

Just Human #379
In this episode: news that HSI, with DOJ alongside, executed a search warrant this morning at Rep. Ilhan Omar’s D.C. residence as part of a criminal fraud investigation into her family’s immigration to the U.S.—on Columbus Day. It has me in stitches.In other news, Fort Hood shooter Nidal Malik Hasan, who on November 5, 2009, killed 13 people and wounded more than 30 others, is headed for a firing squad. I go over a report on his radicalization and discuss my views on the death penalty and whether his execution ought to be televised.Texas Democrat James Talarico was gone for nine days. He said it was the flu. Some large X accounts claimed he was actually at a mental health facility in Ohio. The facility says he was never a patient there. Someone is being dishonest, and I suspect a baited hook is now set in someone’s cheek.Lastly, the grand-conspiracy case in Florida and the Fulton County 2020 election probe appear to be coming apart as multiple key personnel have recently resigned, including a central figure in both of these probes, Kurt Olsen, who reportedly had his security clearance pulled just before resigning. It sounds like bad news, but the criminal probes are real, the grand juries are real, and the subpoenas are real. The news about all of these things, however, may be fake.Timestamps00:00 Introduction01:00 Make a plan to vote and ask your family and friends to do the same10:40 HSI conducts search of Rep.
