Welcome to our VIP feature for Hot Air as well as a members-only show in the Hughniverse! Duane Patterson and I now are doing a Week in Review show for Friday evenings, exclusive to members in both platforms. Duane has been the Generalissimo behind the Hugh Hewitt Show for more than two decades, and we have partnered on weekly commentary since 2007. And don't miss Duane's new podcast series and platform, Duane's World!
What does it take to become a First Amendment martyr? Just ask Bernie Sanders, who threatened Nexstar for not featuring Jimmy Kimmel while warning about government-dictated speech choices on US Senate letterhead. Duane and I have a few laughs over that, which are a few more than we've ever gotten from Kimmel. James Comey wants us to laud him as a martyr for unpoliticized and uncorrupt justice, which would surprise people who got entangled by Comey's Operation Crossfire Hurricane, not to mention Martha Stewart, whom Comey imprisoned on the same charge he now faces. We also cover the biggest story of the week, Google's admission and testimony regarding the Biden administration's massive censorship regime, and point out how little coverage it got in comparison to ABC's late-night Lonesome Rhodes.
We have much more too, so be sure to watch it all, and extend the conversation in the comments!
