I also watch posting by the likes of Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, and Justice Matters speaker Glenn Kirschner, Senator Adam Schiff and Hakeem Jeffries. Elizabeth Warren and Jamie Raskin. All these are stalwarts, people who stand for justice, democracy, truth, equality.
I too, watch all of the above but could I also add Aaron Parnas to your list of 'must watch' independent news sources? He, like Meidas, is young, enthusiastic & tireless in his pursuit of truth. Well done everyone & thank you.ЁЯСП
Heather Cox Richardson's Letter is the very first thing I read in the morning, apart from the time on my alarm clock тП░я╕П. Twice alarmed within ten minutes. What a way to wake up to the world. But we must be awake to all of it.
I also watch all of these. Also Bryan Tyler Cohen, and Heather Cox Richardson for really illuminating historical/political perspective. I'm counting on all of you to stay connected with each other if only in good spirit - we need all the hands on deck that we can get, and the democracy we're fighting for includes every voice, especially friendly and supportive ones. Thanks for all you do, Meidas Bros - important (might I say crucial) work.
Hey he did better than Schumer. Jeffries kept his caucus together and as a bloc, they voted NO. Schumer is a Vichy Dem and a total invertebrate. Time for new Senate leadership!
Schumer made the mistake of not stating his position and the reasoning behind it, right up front from the start. Although I don't agree with him, his flip flop has destroyed his credibility and looked weak.
And Schumer planning a personal book tour while the United States is burning down is really idiotic and tone deaf. He is old and out of touch and appears to be more interested in cashing in on his "prominence" in the Senate instead of working for the "little" people of the USA. I guess he wants to be remembered as Leona Helmsley.
I totally agree. Who would want to LEGALLY give unencumbered power to Trump in a shutdown??? It's been hard enough when we have legal recourse on our side. I think his big mistake was not getting that message out early and often. It was almost like he didn't want Trump and the Republicans to realize the power they would have if the government shutdown, because then Republicans would shut it down themselves. It was really quite tricky to navigate.
I don't understand this comment, and it pops up everywhere. What specifically is it you think he is failing to do? He speaks regularly, appears on multiple platforms, objects to Republican policy and advocates for the American people. He did not want to vote Yes to the recent CR in front of Congress.
So what in your opinion would be "effectual"? Particularly given he does not control any of the executive branches of power.
Canadian here. Why does everyone expect Democrats to be effectual in the Middle East? It is a complicated war between two nations that has been burning in the pot all my life...but there is this constant expectation that America, and specifically Democrats, can step in a fix it up overnight. And what specifically did Jeffries fail to do that would have been effectual.
Always find at least 10-15 minutes a day for IHIPNEWS. Jen and Angie are my #2 go too each day........Stephanie Miller has been the Liberal anchor for years and is plugging MTN often......same with IHN.......Women Power!!!!!
CBC as well. Which is why the Conservative party wants it defunded! What is it about right wing populists, that they cannot abide anyone calling them out or questioning their policies??
I agree. I have seen way to many folks using bait headers. I know with Midas IтАЩll get news as advertised. I do watch and listen to others. Midas it the top out there in my opinion
Consumer Financial Protection Bureau acting Director Russell Vought Wednesday ordered the bureau's employees to eliminate "any and all" activities related to diversity, equity, inclusion and accessibility.
Russell Cought sounds like one of George's orders to his generals who are in America fighting the Revolution. Will it take another Continental Army to be rid of this treachery that now is destroying our freedom and democracy. Any thoughts?

AND Heather Cox Richardson. I listen to quite a variety.

Belle of the Ranch is great for short videos explaining foreign and domestic policy updates, The Bulwark, Brian Tyler Cohen, Lincoln Square
Thank you. This is so satisfying to know Americans are waking up.

Hakeem Jefferies has been such a disapointment, so ineffectual.

Will be remembered as a traitor
He did explain his reasoning, and it was credible. But it is not what Democratic supporters wanted to do. He misread the room, bigly.
We'll see whether his strategy works.
He gave into the Republicans. He needs to retire.
I hope you understand it was a Hobson choice. The alternative was unacceptable. I donтАЩt like it but I understand why he did it.
He did the right thing for the people.

HJ is bought by AIPAC, his biggest donor, so he completely ineffectual against Israel's genocide against the Palestinian PEOPLE.
When asked if Schumer should be replaced, he could not go against party top dogs.
Top donors:
AIPAC
Blackrock
Lockheed Martin
MetLife.
HJ had no plan to respond in real time to Trump's congressional speech.
HJ has no plan to be a disruptor. Look where there Dems are in the polls. How is THAT working out.
While HJ SAYS that he supports Medicare-For-All, what did he ever do to enact it? The party leadership would refuse to approve it.

He seems more and more uncomfortable in his role. I suspect heтАЩs being pressed to conform.
He rallied his troops, unlike Schumer! Why the constant slagging of Jeffries?

22 Republican senators, dozens of Republican House members voted to fund Ukraine. Many of them call Trump a liar about Putin.
Get those Republicans who oppose Putin on the record!

When will Meidas cover it?
The Guardian is another reliable source. For investigative journalism The Atlantic is another.
CBC as well. Which is why the Conservative party wants it defunded! What is it about right wing populists, that they cannot abide anyone calling them out or questioning their policies??
As is Ground News
There are other good sources for news and commentary, too. Having only one source is never a good idea. Just saying.
Dworkin is good; Glenn Kirschner is good; Robert Hubbell is good.....Democracy Docket is good for keeping up with judicial/legal issues and cases.
Also the YouTube channels Back Forty, and Parkrose Permaculture.
I agree. I have seen way to many folks using bait headers. I know with Midas IтАЩll get news as advertised. I do watch and listen to others. Midas it the top out there in my opinion

Consumer Financial Protection Bureau acting Director Russell Vought Wednesday ordered the bureau's employees to eliminate "any and all" activities related to diversity, equity, inclusion and accessibility.
He's a real prince, isn't he! Right up there with Stephen "lose the children" Miller on the goblin level.
Russell Cought sounds like one of George's orders to his generals who are in America fighting the Revolution. Will it take another Continental Army to be rid of this treachery that now is destroying our freedom and democracy. Any thoughts?
I meant Russell Vought
March 12 : "Consumer Financial Protection Bureau acting Director Russell Vought Wednesday ordered the bureau's employees to eliminate "any and all" activities related to diversity, equity, inclusion and accessibility."
And 60 minutes did a story on how the United States Military band is now discouraging minorities from joining.
Is Russ Pus aware that you're using his name to post this chud spam?
