During COVID global economic situation was chaos. USA came through remarkably well because of Biden and his competent administration. Cmon. Don’t commit amnesia!!
The live chat was very good. Re-listening to it on the video this morning helps. It is sort of like going back and re-reading a newspaper article or part of textbook to grain more clarity. I had heard about PBS--best dramas on TV by-the-way. Back in the 1950's there were some good dramas presented on regular TV, such as Playhouse 90. There were others--can't remember their names. It was on one such show that the novel Fahrenheit 451 was dramatized. All about book burning, etc. The resistance all hid out and memorized a book so the story would live on. That was a scary drama. Scary then, and scary now. We need to keep truth and history a live. I wonder how much I can memorize.? Thanks Susan and Sam. Good chat. Take care.
Newsom's plan is a temporary new map that would constitutionally roll back when TX (maybe others), roll back their gerrymandering or by a certain date in the future. He is not proposing eliminating the commission or long-term gerrymandering. I have not always been a fan, but these past couple of months I have a new appreciation for our Governor. At a turning point, hiding and hoping is a losing strategy.
American women need to get ready because it’s coming A national abortion ban will be on the floors of Congress within the next year unless the Nazis get skitterish because of the 2026 midterms
The Nazi regime would be happy to push this onerous Project 2025 agenda item but they’re testing this at local red state’s level In this vein Oklahoma becomes a testing ground for how the Nazis will be pushing doctors around in getting their agenda implemented
This is soooo abusive and delegitimizing to physicians specifically OB Gyn’s who by physician’s oath must take care of Medicaid patients By creating an anti-abortion loyalty oath the Nazis are pushing doctors into a corner essentially saying to physicians that we will cut the financial legs out from underneath you unless you play ball
Since OB Gyn’s are now mostly employed by corporations that run hospitals, this comes down to the decision of medical corporate America to stand up to this Nazi ploy Of course the corporations will listen to the physicians who work for them but ultimately it will be a corporate decision Will they capitulate like the legal community or will medical corporations stand for what is right for patients? Time will tell
RE: gerrymandering. Dems absolutely need to take this bull by the horns and match the GOP step for step. If they don't and fall back to "we need rules and we'll follow them because that's the good thing to do" it'll be like bringing a ham sandwich to a gun fight.
While we're talking about controlling history and especially the erasure of certain things, let's please not forget all the women and POC whose achievements have been removed from the Pentagon and other federal facilities. Trump is trying to erase women and POC as if they never existed or contributed to the history and accomplishments of this country.
This article needs editing. You say Trump is the only President to have been removed from office twice. I must have missed something . . . . He was there for 4 years, out for 4, then now he's back . . . . .

I have always watched PBS news hour and learned that from my Dad

That was a misstatement, for sure. In the video, Susan makes clear that Trump was impeached twice, not removed twice.
She could probably edit the article to make it correct.
