In hour long interviews the media failed to ask Trump about the 2000 stolen top secret documents he hid in his bathroom. MSM in Amercia is biased and full of shit.

I hope Joe Biden lives to attend her funeral and all these other doubters.

that many powerful Democratic supporters made to take Biden out of the race.

Her question assumes that something was wrong with President Biden.

Only so many hours in the day. I’m switching to organizing my belongings, repair work, financial attention, personal matters and family. If i have time left over, I’m reading books or watching Apple TV series, or updating my science knowledge.

Our countrymen will need to hit bottom, FAFO, and rid themselves of lice before anything will change.

All this focus on Biden's mental acuity when he's the outgoing president, and nothing about his stellar record. Then absolutely nothing Trump's obvious and rapid mental decline, as well as his complete incompetence to be president. As far as I'm concerned, her journalistic integrity lives in the garbage. Welker is nothing more than a shill for the billionaire class.

A nice response? Pete Buttigieg would have not let her off as easily as Mr Schumer, who needs some fire in his belly for the next four years. We have a great message but some of our messengers need to speak up louder and hold the media to facts, not gaslighting viewers like this host did.
