In @RobertWrighter’s The Moral Animal (about evolutionary psychology) he recounts Darwin being told by a native boy in Tierra del Fuego, “Dog catch otter–[old ] woman good for nothing.” I think it turned out that the kid was scamming Darwin. https://t.co/USn1LqOWRX

That’s kind of what evolutionary psychologists think about–they wonder why certain human traits (including universally lauded ones) are favored by evolution.

If that’s the best you got you must be scraping the bottom of the Vance oppo file. https://t.co/b6bDxWBBwh

She’s not against it! Shes for it. She’s for the same old “comprehensive” amnesty as Biden. She’s for the same fake-tough border bill that would codify Biden’s catch & release and sluice in millions. How has she run away? https://t.co/ecOP5wFCKy

PS: How did Trump & Republicans get hung up on the issue of whether Harris was “border czar”? I v-much doubt Harris was in charge of Biden border policy–they’d never entrust it to her. But she supported it, Dems supported and she gives no indication she’d actually be different.

Run an election that’s “a referendum on Democrats’ open border policies.” How hard is that to do?

Yes, the media won’t want you to get this message out. That’s the challenge. But it doesn’t seem complicated.
