How are you?
This is wonderful to be here.
Thank you.
Yeah. You publish books amongst other things, right? That's right. So tell us about... Some of these great gifts you've just given. OK, so I got you three books. These were on my shelf. This is Gray Mirror from Curtis Yarvin, Fascicles. Curtis Yarvin, as you know, as people are finding out, is a kind of intellectual, you know, forebearer to some of these new trends in right wing thought. You know, J.D. Vance has cited Curtis Yarvin as, you know, a reference point. We've had Curtis on our program. So, yeah, we're doing four Curtis books over the next four years. This is the first. I also have for you H.P. Lovecraft short stories with some great new art. And then one of my favorites is Always With Honor comic book.
Why did Lomez leave California?
Always With Honor is the memoir of the great white army general from the Russian Civil War, Peter Rangel. What side was he on? The bullshit? No, no, no. Peter was our General Rangel was our great white army hero who, despite the odds and despite everything coming against him, was one of the few people in that conflict who maintained his sense of integrity and fought valiantly. And despite the fact that, of course, as we all know, the Bolsheviks won, he managed to save hundreds of thousands of lives and getting his fellow countrymen to say he was on the czar's side. Is that right?
Yeah, that's right.
I'm not as familiar with the Russian Civil War. Yeah, well, it's a really fascinating story that is becoming, unfortunately, increasingly relevant to our own time. Now, I think this election, we probably forestalled the worst outcomes and replaying the devastating and sort of catastrophic events of the Russian Civil War. But I think the takeaway lesson is not so much the historical analog, but How, as a man, as an honorable person with some influence, you are required to behave during times of great stress and when people are looking to you in periods of chaos to restore some order to the polity. And it is always with honor. Always with honor. So I sat down with Gavin Newsom yesterday. Now, do you live in California? I don't anymore.
So I fled along with hundreds of thousands of other Californians around 2020. COVID was the catalyst for a lot of people to leave California, but it was going to happen one way or the other. The trends were already in motion. California had become a place that was hostile to middle class families. And my wife and I, we had started our family. Our oldest son was starting school and we had to get out because this is not a place where you can raise a family on a middle class income. And a lot of that, frankly, is because of some of the policies that either Gavin Newsom was responsible for authoring or enabling. And so this is something that I think, as Gavin Newsom very clearly seems to be making a play for 2028.
