Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

In Rude & Forbidden Questions, veteran editor and Wayne's Word host Wayne Laugesen takes a microphone where talking points go to die: public parks, school-board meetings, and a personal video studio that has seated a governor, an attorney general, a big-city mayor, members of Congress, and people the protest calendars never invite.He asks the questions that get a reporter forcibly removed-effectively deported from and anti-deportation rally-from protests in the public square.Should a four-time deportee who killed a Colorado mother and child have been here to kill? Why does an antitrust champion, the man near-certain to become governor-elect in 2026, treat the public-school monopoly as sacred? Why is a girls' race no longer a girls' race the moment a male wants the medal? What happens when a state makes it "unprofessional" to help a woman reverse an abortion-inducing pill? Why does a movement that says everyone belongs here tell Wayne to go home and stay there? Sure, he's annoying, but Wayne's simple questions are what the can't stand.Rude & Forbidden Questions is a field report from a dark-blue state that congratulates itself for compassion while the body count, the power bill, and the schoolhouse tell a different story. Laugesen writes as a witness: married 35 years, father of six, a Colorado resident since 1993, and former editorial page editor of The Gazette. He covered White House briefings as a Newsweek intern and later sat with the people who run the experiment-and the people who live under it.If you care about school choice, girls' sports, sanctuary policy, the First Amendment, the Second Amendment, and whether a modern republic can still tolerate hard questions, start here.
