    I agree this is a great video. Of note, per the credits, the scripting and research were done by Caroline Downey. Is that the same thing as writing? I'm not savvy enough on these terms.

    finally NR producing proper content for KZread, long overdue. But some tips: For the main camera, get a lower apperture (F) for the shot to create a bokeh, that looks more professional, and also watch out for the head space, it is too big in this case. also check your audio with headphones before exporting, like in 3:08 or 3:16 you got that marker sound effect only on the left side and on 3:18 the clip is completly unsynced from the original footage. The lighting is also suboptimal, but it's okay for now (like try to get so motivated lighting and also some back light and also try to go for a key light that is 45° from the face instead of full frontal) oh and the cable of the lavalier mic goes to the inside of the jacket to hide it! But as i mentioned: Great that NR is now dowing KZread content, and awesome Buckley Poster in the background ;) If you need some tips regarding production and editing, just hit me up

    National Review, please talk about the dictatorship of the Brazilian judiciary, which is destroying the legal process and persecuting the political opposition.

    So we shouldn't order direct from China and instead buy it from a middleman here in America who gets it direct from China and give them profits. Got it. Maybe bring manufacturing back to America.

    But National Review has no problem with Walmart and Amazon and other American companies selling the literal same stuff, for several times the price, while treating their American employees like crap as well. At least when buying from Temu, you are getting your questionably sourced products direct, as opposed through an American middleman that profits more than anyone in the chain
