Which DOJ delayed investigating the president’s drug-addled son & encouraged intelligence leaders to label the Biden laptop as “Russian disinformation?” Which party supported the firing of military personnel who refused the COVID Vax (& later begged them to return). Which party illegally hindered free speech on social media….. So glad that my hard-earned dollars will NEVER be used to support this foolish programming & the dumbing-down of noncritical thinkers.

The arrogance and absolute “blindness” of the interviewees in this episode are amazing….. It is a wonderful depiction of Trump Derangement Sundrome at its finest.. In spite of your fears, which party encouraged “mostly peaceful protests” while poor neighborhoods were burned to the ground….. Which politician spoke in front of a background that echoed the ones used by Hitler, spoke of an “epidemic of the unvaccinated;” closed businesses & destroyed our economy; (Continued)
