Perhaps they are Mehdi, but the owners of the M$M are certainly not giving much broadcasting time to them.

"Maybe House Democrats, and not me on Cable should be pointing all this out."

US Growth Seen Outpacing Chinas for First Time Since 1976
ByTom Hancock and Chris Anstey
May 20, 2022, 2:00 AM EDT
Bloomberg Economics sees China slowing to 2% on Covid curbs
Such a growth rate would be weakest since Cultural Revolution
China's per-capita GDP remains well below US, showcasing growth potential
Source: International Monetary Fund World Economic Outlook database April 2022
Note: per-capita GDP in current-dollar terms.
President Joe Biden, who is urging congressional lawmakers to pass a package of legislation aimed at strengthening US competitiveness against China, would be sure to seize on such a relative growth outcome. He has framed his economic agenda in part around demonstrating whether democracies can stand up to Xis authoritarian model.

Alito's Overreach will be the Beginning of the End of the Movement Conservative's attempted Coup.
Mark my words.
The summer of 2022 is going to rival 1968's Summer of Discontent.
The Fight to Save Our Democracy is not over, it has just begun - but Alito has handed the Righteous Sane Progressive Majority the ammunition it needs to take to the streets and make itself heard by the M$M.
And just wait until the 1/6 Public Hearings start.
And if Musk DOES get to run Twitter, TFG's comeback there is going to be a disaster for the Racists.
Buckle up and get your popcorn ready, it's going to be one hell of a ride.

I'm in my 60's and NEVER knew this existed, or it's importance in making Elections free and Fair.
We will have only ONE chance to save Our Democracy and Our Constitution, November 2022.
Let's get to work and GOTV - it is what we on the ground can do to help out. The pols and lawyers will need to do the heavy lifting.
