  • People incapable of remorse and empathy who have power are VERY DANGEROUS...
  • The situation in the US is beyond bizarre looking at it from Ireland one is concerned and bewildered
  • @mmegigigigi
    as a neutral party who checks facts, the media should also be clarifying fact from fiction
  • Was she talking about the man who died when she started to say, “ You shouldn’t give your life…” I didn’t catch the rest. He actually gave his life protecting his family. No one should be disparaging what he did. He died a Hero. Condolences to the family and hoping for a swift recovery for all of the victims.
  • Why couldn't the moderators call out the lies?? They failed bigtime.
  • We have had too many years of it and it just gets more serious.
  • Agreed. This situation with Trump feels unrelenting. And it seems like we all have little control over this crazy miserable situation.
  • Politics is keeping me up every night sick and scared. I'm trying to find something else to watch or focus on! My heart goes out to everyone suffering in the crazy mess. 💙 2024 💙
  • @TheBella2u
    The problem is people are lazy and don’t know history. Read
  • It is very sad for our wonderful country tobe going through such horrific times 😢😢😢
  • @pokey5736
    Division is in the authoritarian playbook.
  • Thank ladies … I don’t watch corporate media as they’re obviously trying to be Oprah instead of reporting facts … this is refreshing. Maya Angelou said “When someone shows you who they are, believe them the first time.”
  • I think people are feeling HOPELESS and HELPLESS... right now with all that's happening...
  • Saying that other countries have higher inflation so basically the American ppl should be grateful is not a good argument. That doesn’t make you feel better when you are checking out at the grocery store.
  • @mlight7402
    The criticism of being hyperbolic is gaslighting, pure and simple.
  • Mary is asking the same question so many of us are asking. Why was he allowed to stand, and pump his fist, not knowing if there were other shooters? It makes no sense!
  • @theoldar
    I like Mary, but she was SURE her uncle wouldn't run for re-election after the "humiliation" of 2020. I don't think she really has a grasp on what he will do or how he will act.

    SPOT ON Mary!! We got to turn off the NOISE. Anxiety is at an all-time HIGH. I stopped listening to and watching the news to help stay focused on my own life and manage stress. LORD, PLEASE help us. 🙏🏽
