Funded by Bannon? I read the linked drivel, never saw that. Where do I get my info? Straight from the source. I do this with all of the front runners. I watch town halls, interviews, listen to podcasts. Instead of getting info from partisan sources, I make my own determinations. I’ve watched interviews and listened to podcasts with Vivek, Desantis, Kennedy, Williamson etc. The only candidate I haven’t heard from is Biden. He no longer gives long form interviews or town halls or even press conferences. Hopefully that will change.

My kids asked someone who RFK Jr. Was because I have a water bottle with his name in it. They told my kids that he was a racist. That their father supported a racist. Why? Because at a dinner he referenced a peer reviewed paper that showed certain ethnicities had more resistance to Covid-19, including Ashkenazi Jews. The porpoganda machine went to work, saying he was racist against Jews. Instead of blindly believing that, I watched the video. It wasn’t even near racism. But through the media it filtered its way down to my kids.

Pawns. I refuse to be one. Media is all agenda. It’s a tool (one I’ve used) that elites use to push agendas. There is no investigative journalism left out there (very little) Certainly not at TNR.
