would like to urge my Fellow Americans to not fall for the Tom Homan is a cuddly grandpa or even an β€œadult in the room” when he puts on the readers, as I’m sure some maga propagandist is trying to put forth. Thank you for your attention to this matter.

There’s like 130K immigrants in MN, right? So it’s not a β€œcrackdown.” It is not a crackdown. Please help me come up with different, more accurate words to describe the situation. Thank you

@npr.org It’s time for an editorial policy change on β€œimmigration crackdown.” When Americans are being gunned down, the term is no longer even pretending to describe reality. Sincerely, a loyal πŸ“» listener

I love and value PBS. Did Vance propaganda at a March for Life on day after he defended the arrest of a 5 year old need to be mentioned before the GENERAL STRIKE of a US City in opposition to the agency of masked armed lawless and racist thugs???? Get a grip guys. And please fire D. Brooks. #

I feel so bad for Geoff Bennett when he has to normalize fascism by interviewing liars from the Hudson Institute (right wing β€œthink tank β€œ) on the leading story of the nightly news. #PBSNewsHour

#PBS is airing a series #BreakingTheDeadlock to debate issues; this evening Choice and Life. The 2 staunch choice advocates Michelle Goodwin and Dr. Gunter were silenced by the Heritage Foundation guy & no one stopped him. It’s not debate, it’s a platform for right wingers. Gross

Let’s have some clarification @npr.org @pbsnews.org on Greenland and NATO. We’re hearing about the Mad King and his correspondence. Can we get discussion on the what consequences we in the U.S. can expect if he manages to do as he threatens please. On air. Starting tomorrow? Tyvm

NPR 9am Saturday news is already sanitizing the ICE execution of a legal observer in Minneapolis with that same passive language the NYTimes has been using to excuse the war crimes by Israel against πŸ‡΅πŸ‡Έ.

Netflix costs $20/month for no ads. Netflix is trying to buy a whole azz studio with cash. This will cost industry jobs and affect residuals for artists. Quit them and give that money to PBS. Or keep some and buy a DVD player. But give to PBS. Link in comments. Netflix sucks. Remain Bless

Great story! Disturbing to me that we need to justify paying for public broadcasting that benefits all but no one bats an eye for $1Trillion for war and the hundreds of billions for ICE/BPD. Keep up the good work.
