My wife was in the military. She was violently assaulted by a shipmate. The man was found innocent in spite of overwhelming evidence. He was also dishonorably discharged and she received full benefits for PTSD from the experience… they FULLY acknowledged the assault while at the same time not administering actual justice because it made the military look bad. I say this to say, just because someone is found not guilty cough Trump doesn’t mean they’re innocent.
Amazon should be broken up . Twitter too . And more , break up all big conglomerates
I strongly suspect that Lina Khan was prevented from doing as much antitrust enforcement as she would have done without Biden holding her back
I’d like to hear Mr Platner tell us what he intends to do about the enormous problem of military sexual violence if elected. Seems like a pretty easy and obvious thing to make part of his platform if he’s interested in proving that he’s changed, and senators *are* in a position to make a difference for victims of r@pe in the military.
We need to reach a point where accepting $1 from a billionaire is 1000x more damaging to your reputation than $1 can fix
As a Maine voter, I got a mailer from the Collins campaign YESTERDAY where one of the selling points she's using is the admiration from the democratic governor. Mills cannot win in that environment.
2:10 Ticketmaster in shambles
the ghost of Graham Platner's political ambition
Great show
That "Let me tell you somethin brother" scurrd me 😂
