Bannon needed to go away, like, yesterday.

Disney didn't choose Free Speech, they chose an attempt to recover $4 billion they lost because they didn't in the first place.

Last comment ... another reason this is so important is because our convicted felon and defamer President is going after law firms that took him to court for alleged illegal activities. He's trying to convince voters that he didn't do anything wrong and the actions were all related to stopping a political opponent. That narrative needs to be challenged. His actions were, at the very least, unethical and unprofessional and the President of the U. S. should be better than that.

In particular, I'm talking about the January 6th insurrection. Trump's action were not related to "official" duties of the President. If he hadn't run for reelection, he may have very well been found guilty of the charges against him. Our President has no intention to be ethical or lawful unless voters insist. That's why educating the public is so important.
