Excellent and important points! Thank you for having the courage and taking the time to make them in this piece. I find it scary how few people catch this all-to-common sleight of hand being used these days.

Chris, I just found you via Andrew Sullivan. I have been reading Dr. Richardson's newsletter for about a year, but not daily. I know that hers is the most popular substack and followed religiously by a couple of people I know.

Sadly what I have found again and again is that Dr. Richardson loves to pour on the sins of omissions when it suits her: I have noticed her not mentioning relevant details too many times for it to be an infrequent thing.

I enjoy the historical details she provides. But I wonder, Is that history also being presented with dollops of sins of commission and sins of omission to make the political ends that Dr. Richardson wishes to be?
