It's always been "the people who let him be this way". Our President is a 9 year old running amuck, and the parents think he's cute.

For me, the genocide in Gaza is proof of the uselessness of the United Nations.

Not TV. Podcasts are radio. The best podcasts are with people that are from the world of radio. They understand that people ARE doing other things while listening, and the importance of voice and clarity. They know which words to emphasize so a half-listening audience can easily listen.

Abolishing ICE doesn't help. There is nothing wrong with having a group that polices immigration and border customs. It is necessary. The problems are the people running and manning it now.

Beef has been going up for quite a while--there are fewer cattle being raised. We have the lowest cattle inventory since the 1950's. www.fb.org/market-intel....

AOC running for President makes a point but guarantees a Republican victory.

And then we'll have JD Vance to worry about. I think he would be worse.

By saying he is a "good man" do you mean it's OK to kill Palestinians at will?

Scott Dworkin, this is a misguided campaign. Have you considered the consequences? If Trump is removed, then JD Vance would be President. That would be worse. And the problem isn't Trump, it is the Republicans in Congress. They let this happen, and they continue to let it happen.

They will wait until it is over to take a stand. A different kind of cowardice.

NO NO NO! Then we'll have JD Vance. He will be worse. I could, though, be in favor of replacing the Republican members of Congress. They are letting all this happen even while they have the power to stop it.

I follow you for your photos of mushrooms, which are outstanding.

So...an opposite view, from respectable publication, is abhorrent to you?

You didn't use enough acronyms in your post. Please remember that we don't all live in your world, but that we do want to understand your comments. Acronyms are the enemy of clarity.

You're blaming the customer.

We have to show our date of birth to pick up a prescription at the pharmacy. It's an identity check. Is this requirement really onerous enough to require a lawsuit?

Not all of us live on your world, but we would still like to understand your comments. What is NEHHOR? (Acronyms are the enemy of clarity)

That is so easy to say. It's pages and pages and pages. And it usually isn't in common English. Maybe the people that write this stuff could help us out.

Also....the problem isn't Trump so much. The problem is Congress. They have the power to stop his madness, and just won't do it. They would rather let the country drain away rather than show some courage.

If Trump left, we'd have JD Vance as President. That should scare us more.

FOUR? You're trying to make a point because four people left?

Human space exploration has to be the most expensive possible way to learn about our solar system.

THIS is the correct response to the idea that we must save jobs that have no real use.

Please stop using acronyms. We regular people don't know what you're talking about. If you want to reach a wider audience, write out the words. Acronyms are the enemy of clarity. (I looked it up, but shouldn't have to).

And what is AAPI? Please stop using acronyms. They dilute your message because many won't stop to look it up. . Acronyms are the enemy of clarity.

Shipping numbers are flying around like deflating balloons. There is a lot of partial and misleading information about declines in arrivals. I'm only listening to your numbers. Thanks for posting!

PLEASE don't use acronyms, especially if you want to reach a wider audience. Acronyms are the enemy of clarity.

NPR is delivering on it's pledge to 'speak with many voices'. Interviewing a person with right-leaning views isn't agreeing with them. It is finding out what they are thinking.

I wonder what Stephen Miller would be doing if he didn't work for Trump. Is there a market for his 'skills' ?

HE isn't working on it. No doubt this is a taxpayer expense. Which is OK in his mind because it is for him.
