Yes! Being informed. Unfortunately, young people these days and frankly all people in some way have very short attention spans. They need quick bites of the truth. Keith Boykin, Danielle Moodie and so many others like MTN are doing that. I saw Senator Chris Murphy right away come out with a video highlighting Senator Bernie Sanders grilling Scott Bessent on the minimum wage and Bessent replying "no, sir" when Bernie asked if the minimum wage should be raised. Unless you are a political junkie, you simply don't stay engaged, you don't know who the players are, etc. People must know at the very least who represents them. Podcaster Clay Cane, who wrote a great book titled "The Grift: The Downward Spiral of Black Republicans from the Party of Lincoln to the Cult of Trump," says he always asks people who call in to complain about an issue if they know who their Senators are...some think he is trying to make them "look stupid." by putting them on the spot. That is not his motive. He just wants voters to know where their elected officials stand on an issue and how they voted, AND WHO THEY ARE. There are people who voted for Trump because he "gave them a check" during the pandemic. The stimulus checks that he held up to have his name on them. People need to be educated that a Democrat Congress passed that stimulus, but the orange idiot wanted HIS NAME on them and thus the delay. That is all people remember; as if he'll be sending Americans checks weekly. The disinformation and misinformation is insane!! We MUST educate people and especially our young people. Thank you Ron and all of Meidas Touch!!
