Dean Karayanis, New York Sun columnist and former Rush Limbaugh staffer, tackles political double standards surrounding military draft deferments, calling out Senator John Ossoff for calling President Trump a “draft dodger,” while President Biden had more medical deferments and President Clinton headed to the U.K. Is avoiding the draft noble or worthy of ridicule? Dean breaks down historical context regarding health exemptions, addresses ignoring the legitimate heroism of President George H.W. Bush and Senator Bob Dole in World War II, and the attacks on National Guardsmen President George W. Bush and Vice President Dan Quayle as “weekend warriors,” while praising Democrats with similar service — all because Senator Mark Kelly (D-AZ) likes to wrap himself in the flag. This frustration contributed to the rise of Donald Trump. Dean also examines media bias in news aggregators like Apple and Google before diving into a commentary on modern "safetyism," arguing that overprotecting children from physical and emotional risks does more harm than good.
