As for the 19th century, look at the conclusions of historian John Fea:

Trump just killed this button once and for all. Greatest president of our lifetime.

In this text, Pufendorf says princes are obligated to instill piety in their subjects (everyone has natural duty to worship God), defend the church, have “watchful eye” over ministers, & even call synods

Incredible!

Most denominations would be better off without arrays of denominational bureaucracies that regurgitate managerial values with a Christian gloss.

Washington reassuring himself that in spite of early setbacks, he must keep on fighting the English, as he is fighting for equal pay for women.

It’s remarkeable that a top podcast is hosting this discussion. Convos like this are the reason why controlled opposition conservatives have been attacking Tucker. A free, critical mind is a stinging rebuke to the servile mentality of most chattering class conservatives.

I would have done so well as a medieval general because I learned so much from playing Medieval Total War. You just march your whole army to the corner of the map and line up your spearmen there and they can't outflank you. More medieval generals should have done this.

Every time I rewatch this, I find something new to love. The pained look on his face. The constant chewing but not swallowing because he isn’t sure he can keep it down if he does. The frenetic pointless rearranging of the slop in the bowl to give the appearance of engaging with

All of “our guys” in the conservative evangelical/Protestant world are doing 1) far more interesting, 2) far higher quality, and 3) far more biblically faithful content and resource production than anyone in Big Eva, or at TGC/Christianity Astray, etc. Jared Moore’s interview
