Yesterday, I did John Solomon's podcast "Just the News, Not Noise" and the conversation got around to the progressive movement, specifically the damage it is doing to the country.
Few agree, but I believe progressive power is on the decline. It's a theory but the apex of the movement occurred when Joe Biden took office. As he has demonstrated, Mr. Biden is in the pocket of the progressives. But that pocket is developing a huge hole.
Here are some of the things progressives have hurt.
- The Economy. The Green New Deal has led to higher prices for just about everything.
- The Justice System. It has collapsed in many places because criminals are not punished.
- Public Education. Woke policies including Critical Race Theory are harming children.
- The Entertainment Industry. Hollywood is on the verge of irrelevance because creativity is being destroyed by woke executives
- Television News. Progressives ran CNN and it collapsed under the weight of corruption.
- Public Debate. Progressive guttersnipes on Twitter and Instagram try to destroy people they don't like. To be fair, hyper-conservatives do this as well.
- Sports. Colin Kaepernick, Megan Rapinoe, LeBron James, ESPN, Sports Illustrated, progressives all.
In fact, I can't think of anything the progressive philosophy has improved. Please let me know if you come up with one.
And I think folks are beginning to smell the latte.
