Many many thanks to you Marc Elias! The DNC does not seem able to accomplish anything on their own. Your team is able to convince our courts to follow our laws instead of supporting scammers and frauds.

Thanks Elizabeth. At that time I think radio and local stations and newspapers were the only way to get news. No cable or Internet.

I agree on your stance wrt Israel, Ceasefire and Gaza. Please don't blame Biden who is moderate and running for re-election. That's likely why he won in 2020! If he offends either side he'll lose the election and we'll be stuck with Trump. Biden needs our support at this point in time.

When we were children, journalists were more honest than today's. Didn't our country have a Fairness Doctrine that reporting be honest and fair? Someone told me Reagan got rid of that doctrine (I have not researched or verified)

I cancelled while Trump was in office. Tried Washington Post for awhile but cancelled it recently. Currently relying on National Public Radio (NPR) podcasts and a few influencers podcasts and posts (Mastodon, Post and Bluesky)

Yes, if Trump wins the presidency again and then violates the law again then he could be impeached again. Hello?

So very disappointed in Kagan over this. Too many Dems get into criticism instead of taking a big picture view and building an independent perspective.

The Special Counsel is NOT a doctor and thus cannot diagnose dementia. Are you a doctor qualified to make that assessment? I have been dealing with my mom's memory issues and I can assure you that Biden definitely does not have dementia.

Time for Biden to take the same memory test that Trump did so he can say he did at least as well. Plus Biden can take some higher level intelligence tests that he can pass but Trump could not.

Ditto with Trump. Do you fear God's judgement? We will need to choose between an oligarch/autocrat (Trump) who does NOT believe in God or the Constitution and lies non-stop and an oligarch (Biden) who truly believes in God thus following the teachings of Jesus to love all of God's creations.

I listen to Glenn's podcasts but have not found him anywhere else since I left X/Twitter. I trust his perspectives so I may now consider your book.

The person who invited me to this many months ago said this was "invite only" while in a Beta test mode. That seems to be accurate. Now what matters is how quickly they get rid of the scammers and scammers.

As an Independent I am very concerned. With the fealty of power-hungry politicians, Trump could quickly turn our Democratic Republic into an Autocracy. We need strong Independents to push back on both parties and require accountability and responsibility from ALL our politicians.

I haven't seen stats to say one way or another. Yet with the rise of Billionaires and no Federal minimum wage increase for decades, I believe it is still significant.

I think the problem has been at least 4 decades in the making. The gap between pay for average or lower income citizens and the top tier citizens has increased significantly. The economy looks good for those with enough money, yet the proportion of those who cannot make ends meet is increasing.

Can the government actually help Medicaid enrollees obtain decent jobs? I agree that Medicaid is abused by some who refuse to work (some are able yet some are not). I wish our government helped those able to obtain jobs. If they refuse then their Medicaid enrollment should be refused.

Media wants to blame Tuberville and he's the main culprit. However he would not have been able to yield that power without support from the other Republican senators.

With a Cheney/Harris ticket and Biden out of the picture you would guarantee a Trump win. Is that what you subconsciously wish to do?

Maybe I'm too tired... 127B divided by 3.6M is 35,277
That seems like a reasonable amount to forgive, compared to the tax breaks given to billionaires over the past 4 decades.
