With guns you can kill terrorists. With education you can kill terrorism

What outrages me is that the news media has behaved abominably. There was a clear pile-on, a concerted effort to not only discredit the Biden administration but to attack Biden personally with accusations of incompetence, how the withdrawal was "botched" and it was all "disastrous." That's rattling around in the heads of US voters right now, and the press is rolling out the red carpet for Trump's return. They miss him; the daily scandals, those idiotic and hyperbolic tweets, the corruption - all of which they were happy to normalize even as they were openly called "the enemy of the people."

Biden has been an amazingly good president, hitting the ground running on Jan. 20 and he's still amazing. After four years of a sick joke in the WH, we have a president who not only is tough and smart, but a man whose views have evolved over the decades to something resembling wisdom. So what does the media do? Undermine him at every turn, turn every challenge into a "pending crisis," blah blah. I'm fed up to my eyeballs with the media.

No President in my lifetime has told the truth about our Wars of Choice. They have been too concerned about their political futures. Joe knows there is no guarantee of a next election, so he does what is right.

Just wrote to the WhiteHouse using the link you gave, addressed my message to Vice-President Kamala Harris, and suggested that SHE be the one to sign the ERA with President Biden by her side. 🙂

I just sent an email to President Biden with two things: A heartfelt thanks for doing such an incredibly good job bringing the Afghan war to an end and saving so many live. And urging him to sign the long-overdue ERA on Women's Equality Day. Thanks for the suggestion!

Brilliant podcast Michael! Just so you know, Krystal and Saager on Breaking Points also talk about what a great job Biden is doing in Afghanistan.

Thank you thank you for putting words to our thoughts and discussions. And what is up with the press and the nasty way they ask questions????

Thank you Michael, I totally agree Biden is the best President we have had in a long time, accomplishing so many things to help many different people. I am so thankful he ended the war in Afghanistan. I really appreciate him, and I will write and tell him so. I just hope in the near future he will do something to help the seniors in our country, especially the disabled seniors.

Mike, I thoroughly appreciate any effort to get at the truth, which appears to be the most elusive element of our "government of the people" but I'd like to see a 'national effort' aimed at getting the president, as the current most prominent spokesman for the nation, to 'publicly" issue an "Official Apology" for lying us into the many recent wars of choice based on lies. I see this as a first step in ever getting the public's trust. I see the new governor of New York has made 'telling the truth' the hallmark of her administration. She, at least understands, what's been missing in our government, on all levels. Truth!!......... The many who died or were maimed in these wars deserve this 'Official Apology',,, all the rest of the "thoughts and prayers" are pure escapist hogwash.

Sorry he makes a mess that endangers all those people then he manages to do something and save 100,000 of them that he originally put in danger. I should thank him for that?
