BADGE OF HONOR

If you are wondering why we started what usually is a political podcast with a football clip, then you haven’t really been paying attention to the news cycle of what is going on in Georgia and the Senate race between Herschel Walker and Raphael Warnock, which could be the deciding race on who controls the Senate, which in understanding that I start to get anxiety, I don’t blame you for not watching the news, as of late it reminds of that scene in A Clockwork Orange where the main characters eyeballs are kept open by a mechanical device so he can watch disturbing videos, it best describes my experience. I wasn’t really paying attention to the news out of Georgia, but I kept seeing these weird headlines about Herschel, and it seems like on the surface being a best buddy with Donnie T, the crazy factor is most likely dialed up, but even for the Republican crazy machine some of the things he is saying in the media seem a bit off, so where do I begin. Walker's ex-wife has accused him of nearly killing her, holding a gun to her, the nice Christian boy has had three kids by three different women, which I guess is find unless you are campaigning on family values and the idea of the absentee father, which I saw one of his sons go on TikTok and say some more disturbing things about Walker. Again, with these claims the Republican Party power base is still fully behind Walker, I guess Fake news is the word of the day in Georgia, and he is pro-life, so there is that.
