Gen. Kelly is a patriot. But he's not the infallible word on policy wisdom or strategy. He is an institutional man. Kelly's comments at Drew U. were little more than sawing of sawdust and repetition of discredited Left agitprop (e.g. "all migrants are rapists"). Soon forgotten. The Epoch Times' Josh Philipp on the indictments of the Chinese Equifax hackers and sourcing COVID-19. The Atlantic's Russell Berman on Bernie's high floor/low cneiling. Assumption College's Daniel J. Mahoney on Pope Francis' Louis XIV complex. Should Trump want to draw Bloomberg? I discuss with former Presidential Special Assistant Kelly Sadler. The politics of dancing, and Why "The Price is Right" contestants have gotten worse

WashingtonExaminer.com's Tom Rogan on Chinese commies and coronavirus cover-up as well as Trump's NSC purge. Brightbeam Network's Chris Stewart on the significantly larger educational achievement gaps in K-12 systems in Leftist cities versus in more conservative cities.

AOC calls the Presidential Medal of Freedom a "sacred" honor decrying that Rush Limbaugh was elevated to other "sacred" recipients like Gloria Estefan and Joe Biden, and why I'm buying more cockroaches from the San Antonio Zoo on the latest installment of "Why Dan Proft is Single"

About The Dan Proft Show Podcast
From the publisher's feed
The world is a complicated place. You need someone to expose the political fakers, fixers and takers, and cut through the mindless chatter and misdirection to make sense of it all. That person is Dan Proft and this is the Dan Proft Show.
Politicians take positions. Proft makes arguments. He's studied the western canons. He's read the books. He's seen every episode of "The Simpsons." From DesCartes to Cartman, Willy Loman to Groundskeeper Willie, he's the Firing Pin to William F. Buckley's "Firing Line" here to spark robust dialogue and see who can employ the most arcane (pop) cultural and artistic references to support their points of view.
Entrepreneur, editorial contributor to the Chicago Tribune, former Republican candidate for Illinois Governor, and morning drive radio talk show host with AM 560 The Answer in Chicago (560TheAnswer.com). He speaks truth to his audience with popular political commentary and provocative interviews with deep thinkers and solutionists.
