- I think I like it ….
At first I was disappointed to see the new once-a-week format after a summer away from the show. But, then I realized maybe now I would be able to keep up! Getting behind may be why I left actually. I just want the Catholic view on the news, not necessarily interested in getting it quickly. But, I can also see how a daily one-hour show would be helpful and well-received. MWF is probably not a good compromise. TR_✝️

How do you make such an opinion without stating as such?! Trump wanted a woman, he said it. He didn’t say he wanted the best candidate! It’s almost as bad as Biden was in selecting Ja... more
