  • Ali is Better

    Replacing Lemire = great choice. Ali is so much better - smarter & more positive, less sports than Jon. The only change - please no more Brendan Buck, the troll who must be paying kickbacks to MSNBC bookers as he’s on most shows spewing proMAGA talking points. I fast forward over Buck & Michael Steele, who also pretends to be reformed.
