igence to try to thwart the fake news in this country, which will otherwise determine the election. So we have foreign interference. This is literally true. We have foreign interference in our fake news, which will cause the fake news to less reliably throw the election and make it illegitimate.

Now I'm not coming out in favor of foreign interference. I'm simply pointing out the irony that it might be the only thing that could save us. Again, not in favor of it. I'm not making a pro-Russian statement. I'm just saying that if the fake news was going to do another 2018 job on the country and just completely rig the election by fake information, what if Russia successfully interfered with our election in a way that thwarted the fake news? Would that be bad? In theory it would be bad. Hypothetically it would be terrible to have foreign interference, except that our domestic interference is far worse, right? So sort of a two-wrongs-making-a-right situation. Sometimes it works.

Senator Tom Cotton continues to make news. He's good at making news. And he wants to ban federal funding from any school that has included what is called the race-baiting 1619 Project in the curriculum. Now the 1619 Project—1619 refers to the first date of slavery, I think, the beginning of slavery—and the curriculum would include the fact that the white race is, quote, barbaric devils and, quote, bloodsuckers. So Tom Cotton thinks that schools should not get federal funding if they're teaching that white people are barbaric devils and bloodsuckers. I'm thinking to myself that sounds pretty reasonable.

Tom Cotton, I have to say I haven't always agreed with Tom Cotton. He's got some opinions that are a little outside my range of happiness. But not this one. This one seems right down the center. This one doesn't even look right-wing to me, does it? You could argue that this is, oh, he's a right-wing guy, but not this. This is right down the middle. So will this get passed? I doubt it, but I'm glad he's doing it.

Here's an interesting story that I don't know what to make of it. You know about the book and the movie Plandemic, right? So you know that there's a doctor who's suggesting that, I guess there's going to be—the Sinclair local TV stations are going to air it. And the Sinclair stations, by the way, own a lot of local TV stations, so this is a big deal. They're going to air the Plandemic. It's called a researcher's conspiracy theory. Now, conspiracy theory is what you call anything you don't agree with, so keep an open mind about what's a conspiracy theory and what isn't.

But the Plandemic claims that Dr. Fauci was responsible for creating the coronavirus and they sent it to China, and it's so Fauci's responsible for the coronavirus. Now, I suppose we live in a world where anything's possible, right? Anything's possibl
