[#Covfefe Break] Texas Secession, Rare-Earth Crisis, and Silent Spring

Keri and Carter discuss the childish brouhaha over Jill Biden's title, "doctor," during which Keri reveals her acquaintance with someone who has a Ph.D. in "Food Dance." Next, they discuss Texas GOP Allen West's proposal to secede and form a separate Union, which leads Carter to contemplate Amy Siskind's proposed bifurcation of the United States into the "United States of Canada" and "Jesusland." Carter then discusses how China has cornered the market on the mining and processing of rare-earth elements necessary for modern life, as well as the US's decaying expertise in a crucial technological field. Keri highlights the mainstream media's propagandized reporting of Tusli Gabbard's proposed bill to ban biological males from women's sports, labelling her a "transphobe," and then Carter rants about the double standard of socialized entrepreneurship only upon success. Finally, they get into a small disagreement about the value of Rachel Carson's book on DDT, "Silent Spring," and the appropriateness of using it as a tool to teach "science" to middle-schoolers.

Also, Carter wears a Santa hat, but nbd.
