This is both new and old for me. I wrote consistently on political policy topics for over 10 years but then life happened and I tapered off nearly 10 years ago. I was writing before social media was a thing – back when decentralized personal publishing was the norm rather than everybody using one or more monolithic mega-platforms to share their thoughts. (Also before short form content dominated all the conversations online.)
In the nearly 10 years since I stopped writing with consistency we have stopped being a nation where I felt that our constitutional order was secure and have become a nation where it is clear that significant populations of voters across the political spectrum (but especially among the flag-waving rightward fringe of the political spectrum) either do not understand our constitutional order or no longer believe it can or should be maintained. That is why I think it is critical for me to again share a perspective that is unabashedly pro free-market and fully committed to defending our constitutional order from all enemies, foreign or domestic.
I’m also intent on contributing in the decentralized social web to help foster that healthier ecosystem that harks back to earlier days before our discourse got toxic enough that rabidly anti-constitutional positions are now treated as fairly normal. (This isn’t unlike efforts to save the Great Salt Lake from spiking salinity levels due to dangerously low water levels – I hope it’s not too little, too late but there’s no way to know in advance.)
