I have two reasons to hope there isn't a government shutdown. One reason is selfish.

    I listened to the entire report. The one story I didn’t know before was the one about the assassinated gay imam.


  2. by Donna on February 17, 2025 10:47 am

    Yeah, I was surprised to learn that there were any openly gay Imams.


  3. by Indy! on February 17, 2025 10:50 am

    Watched it all. Think there were two items I hadn't heard before. Proof you don't even have to watch the "news" these days.

    But thanks anyway, Donna - nice compilation of interesting stuff.


  4. by Donna on February 17, 2025 10:55 am

    You're welcome, Indy. She airs the War & Peace Report daily. Kind of a slow news day for Trump.

    Most of her daily show is in-depth interviews with politicians, scientists, activists, news reporters, journalists, etc, - IMO the best part of her show.

    "Yeah, I was surprised to learn that there were any openly gay Imams." --Donna

    Exactly my sentiments. In South Africa no less.

    One of my best friends is South African. On a trip to his home country a few years ago he was stopped by a car that appeared to be an official park ranger's vehicle in a game preserve he was visiting with his family. The "rangers" held them all at gun point and relieved them of all their money and valuables.

    When I was in South Africa on business shortly after Nelson Mandela became president. My contacts there chauffeured me from place to place in an armored car with bullet proof glass. It's like the wild west there.

    They were pretty chaotic times. Hopefully things have settled down since then. I have no idea, though.


  7. by HatetheSwamp on February 18, 2025 3:30 am

    Let me be sure I understand. You think this the fair and objective reporting of news.


  8. by HatetheSwamp on February 18, 2025 3:44 am

    On the gay Imam. There's a lot of diversity in Islam. The difference between Christianity and Islam is that Islamic fundamentalists do assassinate members of the religion who modernize the faith.


  9. by Ponderer on February 18, 2025 5:31 am

    To MAGA Hats like Hate, news isn't "fair and balanced" unless it also includes their lies.


  10. by HatetheSwamp on February 18, 2025 5:36 am

    So, you do think that it's fair and objective.

    You know what pb says about fanning the flames of the preferences and prejudices that you bring with you to every moment of your life.

    In the end, it hurts you. It doesn't help.

    Truth, man!


  11. by Ponderer on February 18, 2025 5:49 am

    We've been listening to Amy Goodman for decades now. They don't come any more honest and objective than her and her team.

    As always, you simply don't have the vaguest notion of what you are talking about. You don't know anything about her or her reputation. Asshole MAGA Hat propagandists like you only attack journalists and their outlets because the truth that they report is deleterious to your side's disgustingly vile lie mongering.


  12. by HatetheSwamp on February 18, 2025 6:23 am

    We've been listening to Amy Goodman for decades now. They don't come any more honest and objective than her and her team.

    Obviously you have.

    She does clever faux journalism. She is presenting events in the news but check out for instance the adjectives and adverbs she employs when relating the non woke Swampcult side of the story.

    It's preaching, not objective reporting. But it is clever. It's no wonder that the two of you are as bonkers as you are.

    You think this is truth.


  13. by Ponderer on February 18, 2025 6:35 am

    Fortunately, Hate's demented and bigoted opinion is as worthless as used toilet paper.


  14. by Ponderer on February 18, 2025 6:38 am

    "Yeah, I was surprised to learn that there were any openly gay Imams." -Donna

    Me too. I would think that such a person would be rather susceptible to being murdered in the streets in such a culture.


  15. by HatetheSwamp on February 18, 2025 8:41 am

    He was from South Africa, right?

    We've been listening to Amy Goodman for decades now. They don't come any more honest and objective than her and her team.

    Lead- no worries. This is like a product of a high fructose corn syrup media diet. Where all your carbs have been stripped of all meaning at all by your design. They've stripped all the actual "news" and actual fact off the shelf because it's what they know. Like eating "Honey Nut Cheerios" with a Latte with 6 pumps of caramel, and 2 scoops of sugar. And that's just the beginning of their "media binge."

    Then, anything that can be bought in a convenience store or vending machine tends to be loaded with preservatives that I know you know are not good for you, such as that BEARCLAW (that you just ate), with another LATTE (see above).


    NOTHING HERE is actually good for you. Just like the news you're watching. It has as much value as the food you just ate. AND YOU KEEP EATING. (Most of us would get really sick on, and usually would... jussayin''


  17. by HatetheSwamp on February 19, 2025 3:25 am

    The tragedy is that po and Donna think Amy Goodman is health food.


  18. by oldedude on February 19, 2025 10:55 am
    At least it's better than the comic "book" indy gets it's "news" from. Maybe.


  19. by Indy! on February 19, 2025 3:58 pm

    At least I'm not a cop killer, Cop Killer. 🙄
