This book has some real gems. The trouble with well documented lives is that all the usual suspects always get emphasis and reprinting. I was aware of this set of books for a while but hadn’t realized what great stuff it had in it that normally isn’t covered.

Just finished. Fantastic book. What a cool woman. I hadn’t realized she was so personally close to the Roosevelts or that she was involved in HUAC stuff.

I know Kirk said this particular thing but on the broader point it’s so weird that the right is so sharply juxtaposing Kirk with Carlson/Fuentes. TPUSA was notorious for being open to antisemites and racists that was like one of the spaces where this stuff first started getting mainstreamed.

Googling suggests 3% of men in a community are sexual predators so if "over a dozen" out of 1,500 are sexual predators that's probably (depending on what "over a dozen" means) lower than national rates, and certainly not significantly higher.

New paper on W.H. Hutt's analysis of Nazi economic policy in two unpublished lectures. Hutt provides a nice case study for thinking about the diversity of neoliberal thinking on "liberal dictators." His analysis is idiosyncratic, which I think makes it interesting!

Three other good ones I’ve finished recently. Frequent fall cabin trips means lots of audiobooks :)
Thanks for the recommendation on Railroaded @econmarshall.bsky.social. Probably my favorite was the Elvis biography though - I learned a ton from it.

Started this today. One of those books I’ve been meaning to read (er, listen to) for a while and now I’m kicking myself for waiting this long.

I’m reading the War on the Rocks piece with an open mind because I want the military to be thinking about these issues, but this framing of different types of liberalism is an awful start.

These people are so weird sometimes and seem unfamiliar with normal family dynamics. We call my parents and even my grandparents cousins aunts and uncles. My cousins kids call me that. Hell, Kate and I have an old college friend who’s kid calls me “uncle Dan.”

New publication from me, in a special issue on Buchanan and public debt. I look at Buchanan and two other early critics of Hansen and Lerner and talk about how their close familiarity with the Southern public debt experience made "we owe it to ourselves" tough to take seriously.
