It's getting to ALL of us.

It's getting to ALL of us.

I am a self professed MSNBC/MSNOW junkie. I saw something happen today that doesn't happen.

These folks are professionals. (Okay, most of them - Stephanie Ruhle is a self-professed cry baby.))

The MSNBC/MSNOW keep their composure and wear the demeanor expected of the Fourth Estate.

We are in tough times, and it is hard to report the barrage of pain and destruction.

Every once in awhile Nicolle says shit, and then apologizes. Although I have seen her say shit more often lately. Today, she broke down while reading the obituary of one of the young students who was gunned down in a classroom at Brown University on Saturday afternoon. He was a young man who had survived brain surgery as a child, and was studying to be a brain surgeon. (And I am tearing up (again) as I write this.)

After the break, she and Eddie Glaude continued a discussion of the broken social contract that has taken over our reality. They both wept.

And then on The Beat, Ari Melber reported on the death of Rob Reiner. He spoke of the enormity of the loss of a man of talent and grace and power, which were demonstrated in countless ways. He spoke of Rob Reiner's conviction to make this world a better place. He spoke of Reiner's politics and showed clips of Rob Reiner on MSNBC. Ari was not on camera. A montage of images accompanied his voice. Ari's voice cracked - he struggled to hold back tears.

Today, they pierced the wall.

It is getting to all of us. WE'RE MAD AS HELL, and we can't take it any more.

When are the leftards going to admit that reiners liberal policies contributed to his own death?
A people... who are possessed of the spirit of commerce, who see and who will pursue their advantages may achieve almost anything.

"Democracy is nothing more than mob rule, where 51% of the people may take away the rights of the other 49%."

Reiner chose to get out of his lane and be a divisive hyper-political jerk.

He didn't deserve to be murdered by his druggie son but he was no paragon of virtue.

Reiner did not deserve to be murdered - Trump did not say Reiner did deserve it - but Reiner's decade or three of vile DU-grade partisan rantings alienated millions or tens of millions.
If The Vaccine is deadly as anti-Covid-vaxxers claim, millions now living would have died.

A self professed rage-bait fake news junkie.

In other words, a DUmmy.
"Be not intimidated... nor suffer yourselves to be wheedled out of your liberties by any pretense of politeness, delicacy, or decency. These, as they are often used, are but three different names for hypocrisy, chicanery and cowardice." - John Adams
