Thank you for articulating so beautifully what I have been feeling for months. I refuse to support the corporate, corrupt media machine anymore. You guys are all I watch now. Thank you for providing real news.

And watching them pick apart Kamala, the woman who ran a superhuman campaign despite incredible headwinds, really tipped the scales for me. She deserved better from the media. We all do.

Kamala Harris is still my hero because when our wonderful President and statesman put country over himself she rose 🌹 beautifully to the occasion. People can't pick apart a hero. And she's not done yet. Mark my words game's not over.

Our "wonderful" president stepped aside way to late fir Kamsla to have a real chance. Because he's stubborn & stuck in the past he's partly responsible for Dump. He also should've fired the 2nd worst AG Garland when he didn't prosecute trump immediately after Jan 6! It took him 2 years to appoint a special prosecutor which is malpractice & inexcusable. Jack Smith is excellent & would've nailed dump IF he'd had more time. But no.

If good ol Joe had kept his word about only serving 1 term, Kamala could've been President.

She STILL could be if the old goat stepped down NOW & gave her the job & the glass ceiling would be broken. Bit no, just like he refused to add additional members to the SCOTUS to make it balanced, he won't do what's right here, either.

You may love Joe, & his term did great things for us, but as a person & president, he leaves a really bad taste in my mouth.

Hazel you definitely have a few good points about Biden but I don’t agree that if he had stepped down sooner Kamala would be President. But I do agree with you about Biden not doing something about the court and Biden and Garland not prosecuting Trump sooner. There are a lot of reasons why we are at this point and the Democratic Party is partly to blame. The Republicans have been committing crimes in office since the 1980s. Does anybody remember Iran Contra? And each time when the Democrats come into office, they sweep those crimes under the rug. Clinton did it, Obama did it, and Biden started to do it until he and Garland were embarrassed by the January 6 committee. It is obvious that the Russians were involved in this election and there may be a basis for Biden to use his new found power given to him by the Supreme Court to stay in office and try to fix this mess. That’s what the Supreme Court said It wanted when it gave the president immunity for him to be able to take bold action. Whether or not Biden will have the guts to do it is anyone’s guess. But if he doesn’t, we need this community to get along and work together to resist the fascism that is going to be imposed upon us. We all need to stay away from corporate media and support independent media. Another thing we need to do is shun businesses who are not pro-democracy. We can shut down small businesses that are owned by racist, and perhaps we can cut the profits of other corporate giants who support fascism. While I am not in love with the Democrats, right now they’re the only game in town. Just my thoughts.

Why can't the USA pass a law that the Media must speak the TRUTH ?

We used to have an FCC rule called the fairness doctrine which required the media to give both sides of an issue. It was eliminated in the Reagan administration. Gave rise to right wing hate talk radio. This has been a long time coming.
