We shouldn’t even have an election – that’s the phrase that’s causing a stir, and understandably so. It’s a statement that strikes at the very heart of democracy, a fundamental principle of the United States. To even consider such a thought, particularly from someone seeking to lead the country, is deeply concerning. The context is crucial; the comment seems to reflect a sentiment of deep frustration and perhaps a belief in the unpopularity of the individual expressing it. The idea of cancelling an election, a process held even during the Civil War, is a bold and arguably reckless suggestion.
We shouldn’t even have an election – the words hang in the air, echoing sentiments of desperation and a willingness to disregard established norms.… Continue reading

JD Vance is a piece of s—t. Plain and simple, that’s the core sentiment here. The consensus is overwhelming, painting a picture of a man who embodies the worst aspects of political opportunism and moral bankruptcy.

Then, he apparently turned around and sold out his country, employing deception for personal gain. And, let’s not forget the allegations of a relationship with the widow of someone whose job he was angling for.… Continue reading

The program’s content has noticeably favored right-wing figures, and Dokoupil has invited numerous right-wing guests to speak on the show. Weiss has reportedly encouraged this direction, aiming for the network to “drive the news” rather than simply report it.
