Methinks Mr. Seth reads or knows TC and has reiterated and built upon the basic premises about Jetlag and punishing schedules somewhat succinctly explained a short while back in TC’s post on the topic, recounting effects on history (key events!) caused by a failed meeting between Kennedy and Khrushchev, short circuited due to the effects of Jetlag, a concept at that point in time little known and therefore not understood.

I agree, TC has indeed been outspoken, criticizing the media's hit pieces on Biden. I value his insight (and I lived in LA for 30 years).

The post from Seth is dated 10 July, so it's not a recent revelation of his.

I just stumbled across it, and I thought I would let others know of it.

Another source that agrees with TC, as do many others I have read.

I noticed the date… Somehow edit function on Substack is touch and go, and I had already posted (but here I am again… Lol). I think I’ll subscribe to Mr. Abramson because it all helps one’s keep a finger on the pulse, a factor in thought turned into action.

I’m so glad you posted. TC’s column on the topic held huge impact, I felt and feel, particularly because of the historical context he provided.

What another fine mess this became, but I’d like to think in the end we’ll be able to say it has not weakened, but strengthened us to stop falling for all of these layers and dynamics, especially because, this time around in particular, it’s very very simple: democracy versus autocracy, actually, fascism.

KISS comes to mind. (Keep it simple…!!!)

The role of the out of whack media has become frightful.

Substack has become a significant, impactful forum!

I read Project 2025 in March. I have spent my time since then trying to raise the public's awareness of its content.

I'm heartened to see this effort being taken up by legal expert Joyce Vance, and experienced journalist Thom Hartman.

The Dem's need to come together on this. We need to focus on beating Trump at the ballot box, and we're gonna’ need everyone.

I'm not asking anyone to support Biden (I do). I'm asking for them to vote against Trump and Project 2025.

That's all.

For those reading P25, this will help:

Joyce Vance is a regular of mine, as well as Rob Hubbell, HCR, of course… Thank you for the helpful links, your research and significant action spreading the word. Let’s hope to see a ground swell of events like Big Tent, Red Wine and Blue and the like, so it becomes nigh impossible to be oblivious and certainly not indifferent! Thank you again.
