Stephen A. Smith won't change the way he votes any more than Bill Maher or Jon Stewart will. It's still entertaining and valuable when he calls out the left and the media (but I repeat myself) to a mainstream audience that wouldn't typically hear such things. Like with SignalGate. And how the people calling for Pete Hegseth to be fired weren't this outraged when the People Who Controlled Joe Biden Adminstration's incompetence led to thirteen service members being killed during the Afghanistan withdrawal.

To recap SignalGate, National Security Advisor Michael Waltz, or someone working for him, "accidentally" invited anti-Trump jorunalismer Jeffrey Goldberg to a group chat about the Houthis being taken out. And because of Waltz's f*ck up... the media and the left (but I repeat myself) still butthurt they couldn't collect Hegseth's scalp are demanding HE resign.

To be clear: Waltz SHOULD resign. This was a colossal f*ck up.

Stephen A., who is no fan of the Defense Secretary, thinks Afghanistan was worse.

We operate in a biased and partisan industry. Sometimes we can be unfair to the left, the media, and the People Who Controlled Joe Biden administration. I get that. It's one thing for us to blame the previous team for Afghanistan. So here are the families of the servicemembers who lost their lives during the incompetent withdrawal blaming them.

The left and the media (but I repeat myself) weren't upset about this. They didn't call for anyone to be held accountable. Yet because a reporter was added to a group chat by the National Security Advisor, the Defense Secretary needs to either resign or be fired.

I know Stephen A. may not ever vote with us. I'm still glad he uses his platform to call this out to an audience who might not hear it otherwise. That, and anytime he uses his platform to revel in the Cowboys losing.
