Brianna is probably best interviewer CNN has. She is fearless and smart. She also really good with weaving words and pool cultural references.

7. The RADICAL LEFT and their corporate allies.

A professor who taught both Ted Cruz and Josh Hawley at Yale commented on the two. The professor basically said that Cruz was actually a very smart student who knew his stuff, but was insufferable and no one liked him. Hawley on the other hand was popular with a certain set, but dumb as a hammer.

The very idea that the "radical left" would even have corporate allies is laughable and a sign of Hawley's mendacious stupidity. Perhaps he knows what he is saying isn't true (can't give him the benefit of the doubt though). The real radical left wants to upend Capitalism. Destroy it. That means eliminating the corporate structure in favor of collective control of production and finances. Why the actual fuck would corporations ally themselves with a movement that would see them destroyed and their assets seized?

No Hawley, the publishing company, which exists to make money by publishing books, ended up seeing you as too much of a risk. What your book could earn them, wasn't enough to compensate for what your stupidity would cost them. It had nothing to do with leftism and everything to do with Capitalism.

People calling out your stupidity isn't censorship or cancelling. It is plain and simple accountability. Stop being such a whiny coward and defend your positions rather than crying foul every time some challenges your lies or lack of knowledge.
