  • Nuts and bolts of our government

    I believe she does a wonderful job breaking down what goes on in the House of Representatives and in our government overall. Get past all the manure and gets right down to the ground level information. The citizens of the United States really need. I give her two 👍

  • Hard to listen to

    I was really excited to stumble upon this podcast and had high hopes, but was very let down. In the episode I listened to she doesn’t even get into any real content until 17 minutes in. And even then, it was just a lot of talking without any real substance. I would pass.

  • Extremely partisan

    I hate Trump as much as anybody I think he’s an absolutely horrible president and person in general. Having said that, what I hate even more is listening to news that is bias like this. Just give me the news and I’ll make my own opinion. Reporting accurately about what Trump is doing is all you need to do. Adding in all the hyperbole and insults is totally unnecessary and unprofessional. Unfortunately, I’m going to unsubscribe because of it.

    The CCP/PRC is an adversary nation and the canal will be a priority target if there is ever a PRC-ROC (Taiwan) War that involves the US military protecting the ROC. The canal must be protected in peace and ... more
