rd agreement. He didn't put it this way but I think you would agree with the following statement: that it was unethical and immoral, frankly immoral, to not help them when he knew that they were just good patriots. And I would have said the same thing if I had a bunch of Democrats who had been picked up on sketchy charges. Like in both cases it would be immoral to leave them there.

But number one, he could not have known how bad it would get because he was only in office what, two more weeks, right? But he could have suspected that it would harden the narrative that the Republicans are nothing but an insurrectionist party and the MAGA movement has to be uprooted by its roots. But playing it this way — again, if you're coming in late this is not spinning it, this is just helping you imagine that no matter who it is, whether it's Trump or Satan, there might be something more to the story every time any of us have been fooled by a news story. And that's all of us.

I remember the Covington kids thing fooled me for a little less than a day but it definitely fooled me. We all have the same blind spot. You can't imagine what you can't imagine. Does that make sense? You can't understand what you can't imagine. And it could be just there's more to the story.

Look at the quality of this comment: Scott is a liar. I'm a liar? I've not even made a claim of fact. All I've made is a claim that you should expand your imagination. You're having a little trouble with this, NPC. You can tell the NPCs. There is like the first level I can't get past anyway.

So I do not defend Trump but just as I try to be consistent with every story, if you haven't heard the other side, if you haven't heard the other side, you do owe that to Trump, right? You owe Trump his explanation because I think there's a possibility that he had to choose between destroying the country and doing something clearly unethical, which is keeping them in jail, or immoral. Pick your term with that choice. I know it might have been the choice. Just saying.

All right. How about that lab leak theory? I haven't talked about that too much. You know the fact that now the consensus of the experts is it must have come from the lab. But it doesn't feel like news to me. Like the news is that the government is no longer denying you the obvious explanation. But doesn't it feel like we've known it for so long that the fact that the government had been lying or was useless in terms of helping us understand that feels like business as usual today, doesn't it? Like the fact that the government was lying or misleading once again, once again. I couldn't generate any outrage at all.

I've been trying for days to generate some outrage over the fact that we were denied the obvious explanation that it came from the lab and
