The social contract the government has with society is severely broken! Horrible long term sociological and cultural damage!

DAVID - ONE OF THE BEST PROGRAMS ON INDEPENDENT MEDIA. YOUR AFTERNOON SESSIONS ARE EXEMPLARY. THE INTERVIEW WITH THE FORMER DEPUTY spokeswoman - flawless.

I loved the arsonist analogy. Trump is the arsonist burning down our democracy and his fire is definitely out of control. It rages on and doesn’t distinguish between his supporters and others, but they don’t understand that he never cared.

Me too! David has been, and is always fire! Unintended pun for sure. Think I'm 1/2 way through The Echo Machine.

I truly hope the people who believed the conspiracy stories spewed by Trump & Co. are realizing that it was lies and that lies have consequences. I implore these people to stay vigilant and help to reclaim our liberties and freedoms.

Sorry there is no hope for the hopeless,. Those who put T in office will stay on the boat regardless. Party before country. Those in power do not give it up nor change stripes. They need to be voted out of office, the only cure.

David, we are going thru a similar period of history to Joseph McCarthy in the 1950's . He did the same thing by dividing the US. Yet almost no one talks about him. Everyone he did not like was a communist, today it is the mythical deep state. Even all powerful Eisenhower stood by doing nothing to stop him.

Forgive me for showing my ignorance, but do the black bars across the SCOTUS represent redactions?

LOL! "Justice" is no longer blind. It's redacted.
