On Sunday’s This Week , anchor George Stephanopoulos was clearly aware that Democrats are on the verge of being wiped out in the 2022 midterm elections, having witnessed it closely while working in the Clinton White House during the 1994 drubbing. So after having moved from overt Democratic operative for the Clintons in the 1990s to covert Democratic operative for ABC today, it’s no surprise to see him panicking as the elections get closer.
Turning to failed former Democratic Senator Heidi Heitkamp who was ousted from office in 2018, Stephanopoulos fretted “is there anything Democrats can do to stop the wave in ‘22?”
Referencing a previous panel discussion on the never ending January 6 hearings, Heitkamp thought it would be a brilliant idea to have her party obsess over the riots at the Capitol from over a year and a half ago instead of addressing real issues like inflation and gas prices: “every moment that we’re spending here talking about the January 6 commission we’re not talking about $5 gas, we’re not talking inflation.”
The media could not be loaded, either because the server or network failed or because the format is not supported.
Having thought she meant Democrats should stop wasting time talking about Jan 6 and talk about pocketbook issues that Americans care about, Stephanopoulos jumped in to note “that’s not going to help Democrats, talking about $5 gas?”
Heitkamp agreed: “What I’m saying, you don’t want to be talking. You want the airwaves to be talking about this because it reminds the voters why they voted for Joe Biden.”
What she failed to explain is why voters should care more about a riot at the US Capitol than paying over $5 a gallon for gas and forty year high inflation at the grocery store. Everyone knows Jan 6 was a terrible day, […]
They’re Trying to Shut Us Down
Over the last several months, I’ve lost count of how many times the powers-that-be have tried to shut us down. They’ve sent hackers at us, forcing us to take extreme measures on web security. They sent attorneys after us, but thankfully we’re not easily intimidated by baseless accusations or threats. They’ve even gone so far as to make physical threats. Those can actually be a bit worrisome but Remington has me covered.
For us to continue to deliver the truth that Americans need to read and hear, we ask you, our amazing audience, for financial assistance. We have a Giving Fuel page to help us pay the bills. It’s brand new so don’t be discouraged by the lack of donations there. It’s a funny reality that the fewer the donations that have been made, the less likely people are willing to donate to it. One would think this is counterintuitive, but sometimes people are skeptical because they think that perhaps there’s a reason others haven’t been donating. In our situation, we’re just getting started so please don’t be shy if you have the means to help.
Thank you and God bless!
