I mean that literally. When’s recess over? What can they do then? Why aren’t they talking to us?

Hello? Is there anybody out there?

and wonderful PodCast.

Here's a blurb on her from Wikipedia. I think many here know her. She's very strong on drumpf being a patsy for organized crime for decades. She thinks Congress needs to come out stronger v. drumpf in this moment:


Sarah Kendzior (born 1977) is a journalist and author.[2] She has written for Al Jazeera,[3] The Guardian,[4] Foreign Policy,[5] Marie
Claire,[6] The Boston Globe and other outlets. Kendzior is the author of The View From Flyover Country – a collection of essays first
published in Al Jazeera – and a co-host of the Gaslit Nation podcast.[7][8][9]

On a St. Louis radio station, Kendzior was described in April 2018 as having become "a media sensation in recent years," and having
attained a "relatively sudden national celebrity".[2][1]

The Columbia Journalism Review reported that because of her writings and expertise on authoritarian states, "as the new president
came into power and the specter of Russian interference in his victory triggered Mueller's investigation, the limos started lining up"[1]
to drive Kendzior to interviews at television studios.

During impeachment, I was really wishing they would engage and call out their republican counterparts with the whole force of the nasty truth behind them.

We need any help we can get right now while Orange Joffrey demands fealty from the media because they aren't kissing his ass just right.

I hope Franken can find a spot to tear a new one in 45, because he is covered in them and may just be nothing but a walking sphincter. I guess you can even tear a new one in that.

When will one of the Media outlets pick up either or both of them? We are in dire times and are being left without some of our best sources of the truth.

Thank goodness for Dr Fauci, at least we have at least one voice on that damn podium.
I hope he lasts thru this.

Keep safe all.
