37. When VP Harris said
Mon Aug 16, 2021, 11:37 PM
Aug 2021

"You respect the American people when you tell them the truth", she directed this at everyone, including the so-called journalists who have appointed themselves the American people's spokespersons.

In their self-righteous circle jerks, they omitted the context and background of the Afghanistan debacle in order to pin the blame for the fallout of the withdrawal squarely on Biden's shoulders, all while failing to offer anything in the form of suggestions or solutions that would actually work.

I don't know what the reason for this is, but they can take that impotent rage and shove it up where the sun don't shine.
