American Consequences - December 2020

FROM OUR INBOX

Thank you for your honest assessments. In a sea of fake news, honesty shines! – Anne M. P.J. O’Rourke Response: As we get tossed around in storms of B.S., let’s hope that what we’re shining isn’t a distress signal. Anne, please know we appreciate your assistance in keeping our heads above water. I’m a reader of American Consequences and I enjoy it a lot. I first learned about it when Sebastian Gorka mentioned it in his radio show America First. This along with some other newsletters and online magazines are the only reliable sources of information that we can get.

I just wanted to write to you to let you all know that you are doing a great job with your articles and issues, and don’t give up. Thank-you so much for this great website! – Daniel A. P.J.

And, while the sea of fake news may cause other media outlets to list to port or starboard, we try to keep an even keel. Reality isn’t left-wing or right-wing.

P.J. O’Rourke Response: Thank you for your words of encouragement, Phil. It’s the positive things so many Americans keep doing that give us good news to write about. Therefore, it’s you who’ll make us just fine! So, as Ralph M. says above, “keep up the good work.” I find your articles refreshingly true with facts and practical insight. Your contributors are top notch... I will spread your word. Thank you. – David J. P.J. O’Rourke Response: And speaking of keeping up the good work, David, spreading the word about American Consequences is beneficent employment of the best kind!
