Until they joined the pile on Biden. I still read them though. Unlike Wapo and Nyslimes. Do folks really believe we will have a free election in 26 ? I sincerely doubt it. Maybe we need the country tanked for 10 yrs. Screw dems fixing only to be slimed by mass media. The foxes have the hen house. It's been the same shit for 40 yrs. I did get a healthcare fix, Thanks Obama. Had to wait till 2015 though. Pre existing and rejected the first time.
