In reply to the discussion: sociologist Jennifer Walter on what's happening in the US and what to do about it [View all]It's all noise to distract while they pursue their real agenda--looting the country and selling it off.
Drives me nuts when the smart MSNBC hosts spend so much time on the bait stories--which are important and deserve coverage, but clearly red don is dropping the chum in the waters to get exactly this response--while the oligarchical takeover gets relegated to secondary status. The emerging oligarchy does get coverage, but not enough. I would prefer to see the main stories each day about the content of bills being introduced, policies being enacted, etc. especially economic and financial, because that's where the looting is going to happen.
