Hi all--it was SO great getting to join Cliff and David for Amped Up today!! For anyone interested, here's a link to the story we discussed, called "Middle-Aged Men Keep Ogling My 16-Year Old."

I'd welcome your thoughts!

"The problem isn’t just Trump—it’s the monopoly media that normalizes him." This is the WHOLE problem. We wouldn't have Trump if the corporate media hadn't abdicated journalism. It's why I'm vetting independent newsletters to decide which ones to support. I wish I had the money to support all! But The Washington Post will never get my money again. And just a few years ago, it was a great paper.

I'm so with you about WaPo. Not only did I cancel my paid subscription back when they refused to endorse Harris, but I also refuse to link to any of their stories from my writing anymore. And yes, they were an incredible publication.

This MAGA cult, these bigots want to take us so far backwards it's unbelievable! I used to say in trump's first term that we're undoing what progress we've made regarding women, racism, world affairs, the environment - everything!!! It has taken far too long to move forward to turn back now. They thrive on bigotry and their illusion of superiority. But we're onto them, so we have to keep up the fight. Thank you both for your input and insight!

Hey, I know you say partners in crime, let’s try to say partners in democracy! Because democracy is on its way out, and we need to save it, so let’s protect democracy, and let’s be partners in that!

I agree with that. We have far too many 'partners in crime' already, and they're hell bent on destroying our democracy!!!!

I have a 22 year-old, and I told her from very, very young to always know your surroundings, never do powders or pills, and she’s 22 now, and she’s doing great. It’s funny because when we talk about it, she says to me you ingrained that in my mind that in me from like when I was 10, and we laughed about it, but she’s very good knowing her surroundings, make sure she doesn’t take a drink that’s open from anybody. You know things like that. It’s really important to tell your daughter from young and keep telling them about it.

The truth has liberal bias because modern conservatism is a lie.
