    Sarah,
    Do you really believe we are at the end of the Repubic? Should I be stocking up on firethrower fuel and Joe Rogan memory pills already?

    Really though: I was hoping to be able to fly and see my family at Christmas, but I'll go sooner if you think the east coast will be a war zone by then.

    Long time listener who has never reached out by comment before, but I run a craft brewpub with a focus on housemade sausages so I felt obligated to weigh in. Heavily salt the beer before poaching if you must because the beer will literally leach some of the flavor without a heavy salting, but skipping the poach altogether is better for a snap on the sausage casing when you bite into it. If you're looking for a slow forgiving way to cook through before finishing on a hot skillet or grill, go with a dry oven bake at a low temp like 250F. Probe a sausage and pull them out when you hit 165F, probably around an hour in. I guarantee the snap on that sausage will be phenomenal when you're finally ready to serve it with a nice mustard and kraut. Cheers!

    Regarding Sarah's loyalty to the Dallas teams when outside of Texas:

    NO.

    I will not root for the Dallas Cowboys. I will not root for the Arlington Rangers. Even from up here in the Pacific NW

    Regarding presidential orders to the military, all military personnel are instructed to ignore illegal orders. I did so as a helicopter pilot flying in RVN .
    I was cursed by the commanding officer but no other repercussions.
    I believe that members of SEAL teams and most military personnel will refuse any illegal order too.

    All the political analysis will be "yesterday's news" after Iowa. The beer brat discussion is timeless. I might go back and take notes.

    If South Carolina is Haley’s Alamo, then perhaps Super Tuesday can be her San Jacinto.

    So much for Kim Reynolds's desantis endorsement as trump currently crushing polls with a average lead of 33 points lead over Haley, while desantis already threw in the towel(a distant third in IA) and packed his bags and went to Haley's state. Why are you guys wasting time in Iowa instead move to new Hampshire where the race could interesting (atleast for 2nd spot) due to open primaries there . I suggest everyone to listen to Sarah longwell's focus group podcast where she interviewed some of potential sampling of Iowa voters some those comments interesting
