This is not how you talk about Los Angeles or any city. She is dehumanizing the most multicultural multiracial society in the history of the world. Noem is ignorant and needs leave because they are pushing racist policies.

The media is scared to say anything that runs against the narrative of this administration.

And then you have the wonderfully brave journalists on this platform and others who are telling the truth. I don’t want to paint all journalists with a broad brush, so I apologize if my previous comment might have suggested that.

That is pathetic! They need to have a backbone to do that job properly- same goes for the Rethuglicans!

Dean, I think "shock and awe" is working due to several things:

1. Media treats Kristi like Trump- as "uneducated"--I don't think they believe her literal statement

2. Media journalists no longer have independence--say "certain things" ( a la Moran) and you're gone.

3. MAGAs don't ever get the truth--they're glued to their media world, which is a closed loop (no interaction with other viewpoints).

These are bullies. How do you deal with a bully? By fighting back.

On Kristi Noem, who was banned from every Indian reservation in her state, she is the classic example of a disreputable Republican who manages to fail up. Nope, no DEI here!

Trump and his cohorts are completely open about their intentions. So why does no-one

with power and money stop them?

Because they actually support them or are too greedy to care one way or the other. Take your pick. Equally evil in my book.

She also said kilmar Garcia would never return. She’s a liar and the news media are cowards. They are both traitors. She doesn’t even know she’s a traitor.

Noem sounds like she is a child reading a script, which most likely is the case. She is another unqualified cultist in this illegitimate regime. We should be so lucky as to have some socialist policies like universal healthcare!!!

Noem is a deranged, ill-informed, incompetent who is a danger to society. I am not interested in listening to Congress members talk about what we saw. There needs to be action. I’ve never seen this level of weakness in attacking other countries. Now that our country is being attacked, crickets. Noem said she will sic the military on Socialists. It is not illegal to be a socialist. She needs to be removed for her lack of understanding our Constitution. NOW

They (the radical right!) tell us in plain English what they want to do, and then they try it. Succeed? Try it again somewhere else, and probably a little bit more. There's your recipe for fascism.

Dean was asking a rhetorical question as to the media not making a big deal out of these outrageous. statements because he knows that the mainstream media is weak never pushes back hard enough And we must fight back and wait to see if they are serious. Non violence is essential bro not give their lies traction

They are a party of rejected ideas and rejected candidates, who have nothing but contempt for people and democracy. Their temper tantrums play out as violent crime, abuses of authority, and the destruction of civil and human rights. They are losers and they know it.

There is literally no-one with legislative or military power doing anything to fight back against this...our reps in DC are the biggest cowards of all. Forget judges now...they aren't obeying courts. If you stand up to these losers they will back down! Our media is garbage (other than those like you, independents) We need to shut up these evil mouths. How do you get the truth to the insulated MAGA though in their media bubbles. They literally have no idea what is going on out there.

We need several hundred thousand people to surround the White House and just march, the way the Israelites did at Jericho. March and yell, all day and all night for as long as it takes. Trump needs to resign, and if he skips town, all the better.
