I just lost ten years off my life watching Rachel

[PlanetBev]

She’s talking about the hostile take-over of the Voice of America and other media outlets by a Steve Bannon associate.

[Mersky]

1. Same here

He’s damaged/destroyed every last office and institution in the federal government. I’m sick of the the spoiled brat in the oval office.

[Ilsa]

2. My family has turned off TRMS to watch a movie.

Can we fix VOA after dicktator donald is gone?

[mucifer]

3. Destroying everything is so much easier than constructing everything

[Mersky]

5. It's hard to impute the value loss that has occurred under his one term

How many millions of work hours and accumulation of expertise has been wasted for his vanity, entertainment, and enrichment? He’s hosing everyone, including his deluded supporters.

[ooky]

7. Looks like we have to. Stand by for the next broadcast

in Russian.

[txwhitedove]

4. Yes, my reaction exactly.

[Wellstone ruled]

6. Watched that segment,

and my first thought was of a personal friend who was a VOA on Air Broadcaster during Nam. He did a four year stint late sixties and Another stint couple years during the Eighties out of a Midwest Studio.

Rollie was a true Liberal and Drove the Local Wing Nuts Crazy 24/7. But,he broadcasted only the truth,never allowed Talking Points.

8. There's likely more to this story about the VOA bloodbath

I’m guessing there’s an intelligence piece in there somewhere. Putin must be pleased.

9. If Biden wins, need to hire a team just to catalog malfeasance to correct. nt

[czarjak]

10. Vlad and Steve ain't tired of winning...

That, I can tell you.

[not_the_one]

11. Rachel's main concern, it seemed to me, was that the turd was setting up a full blown, powerful

media NETWORK to use for his purposes. She even mentioned that possibility.

I swear, Bannon and Miller are the sources for all this shit. They MUST be held accountable.

Isn't the VOA what is used to inform and entertain our troops, world wide? (yet they included Rush Limblech as a prime show ) He may want full reign to brainwash our troops to support him.

I'm sure Biden can undo most of what the turd has done, but this is beginning to be a REALLY long list of repairs. I hope Biden has a GREAT transition team that can keep all these balls in the air, with inclusive lists of all the wrongs to right, and GET IT DONE.

14. Armed Forces Radio is what the troops get, if I'm not mistaken.

I'm guessing that it's a DoD operation, but Shitgibbon probly wants control of it.

[JustFiveMoreMinutes]

12. The good news... Climate change will have shifted the dialogue

My sadness... The roof is on fire and we're chasing cockroaches from under the the fridge.....

I don't have years to take off my life...

Let me know how it all returns out.

[pazzyanne]

13. I am in full panic mode.

I remember listening to Voice of America with my Grandfather when I was very young (4 or 5). He told me that we were listening to a very important broadcast. This is an outright attack on news media and it is frightening.

[BadgerMom]

15. My reaction was the same.

I’m angry, frustrated and fearful. The only comforting thought I could muster is that they’re running out of time.

[fleabiscuit]

16. Don't look at me, I can't afford to lose any more.
