So refreshing
When their not talking and enjoying irrelevant bull, they’re pivoting every talking point to “why aren’t Dems doing anything about it”. Zero discussion of the obstruction of the GOP in congress, or the outright cowardice of the GOP to call out the rampant lying, or the rampant voter supression.. Every discussion begins and ends with what is wrong with the Dems. This is an annoying waste of time.
Actually, zero stars. I enjoy listening to intelligent an broad political views, but this is pure right wing propaganda based on unsubstantiated opinions and falsehoods. There is no fact-checking. I can find this on Fox News, but I choose not to go there for this reason.
