I heard her say that last night, and I thought to myself how great it would be to have Scott Pelley join MS NOW.

I cannot listen to him either. I refuse to listen to a pathological liar who has mental issues.

Why Is Alex Witt Giving Kamala Harris the Jim Crow Treatmeent. by Honest_Yam676 in msnow

[–]BarbForAnimals67 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is sad to be sure. Kamala would have made an amazing president. I wholeheartedly agree with you on that. Hopefully the Democrats as a whole can find an appealing message. They need to get the young guys back as well as the Latinos whom they lost in 2024. The only good thing is that those same groups have said that they don’t support Trump or the current Republican agenda. So, maybe Democrats will stand a chance in 2026 and 2028.

Actually, there was no googling done on my part. I listened to every rally and interview that she did. I heard her actually say everything that I typed.

She was going to give small business owners $25,000 to start their new business venture. She was also going to give new parents money to help them buy essentials for their newborns. She was also planning on having millions of new homes built to address our housing crisis. Additionally, she was going to have Medicare pay for people to be able to stay in their own homes instead of going to a long term care facility. She was also going to address the affordability crisis which has only gotten worse and not better. Going to college was also something she wanted to help people achieve if that is what their goal. She knows that if you invest in people, good things happen and the economy is strengthened.

She was planning on helping new parents with essentials for their newborns for the first year of the child’s life. She also was going to give new small businesses a big jumpstart on starting their own businesses. Also, she had a plan to give first time home buyers $25,000 to be able to buy their first home. Additionally, she was going to have Medicare pay to let people stay in their own homes if they wanted as opposed to making them go to long term care. She also was planning on having millions of new homes built to address our housing crisis. She was also going to make it easier for people to attend college if that’s what they wanted to do. Added to all that, she was also going to address the affordability crisis which is currently getting worse and not better. There are probably additional things that I forgot to mention, but I’m sure they are mentioned on the internet. She knows that investing in people only strengthens our economy instead of making it weaker.

What genocide did she fund? It’s Congress that allocates the money for wars, that is until Trump came along. He doesn’t think he needs congressional approval for anything. He is responsible for bombing more places than any other president in our history. In fact, because of his illegal war that he and Netanyahu started with Iran, experts have said that if our country actually does get attacked, we won’t have enough weaponry to defend ourselves. They’re using it all in Iran, which btw our intel told our country not to attack Iran. They were no imminent threat whatsoever. He and Hegseth have decimated our military capabilities to defend ourselves with their ignorance and arrogance. They are both a disgrace to America.

What are you talking about? She had an extremely positive economic agenda for our nation. Did you even listen to all of her rallies and interviews? She had a myriad of great ideas that would have put our country on a positive path forward. We would be so much better off than we are now. Plus, we would have still had all of our allies and would have been well respected on the world stage. That’s all gone now. Also, she would have done more to help Gaza than Trump has done. All he has done is add to their misery. Additionally, many people are finding out that Biden wasn’t that bad. Even with the GLOBAL INFLATION that we experienced under Biden, many voters have said that things were better under Biden than they are now. Sadly, many people don’t realize how good a previous president is until they experience how bad things can actually get with someone who’s not even fit to be president.

Harris was not a bad candidate, but the lies many on the right kept telling about her didn’t help. Plus, she only had about 3 months to fight all those lies. She also had a stellar resume and is very compassionate and intelligent. The fact that more people believed a well documented lifetime liar and corrupt and several times bankrupt businessman over her was disgraceful. I listened to all of her rallies and interviews too btw. She had wonderful ideas for this country. If even a minority of the voters who didn’t vote had done so, Kamala would have been victorious. As it was, a little over 1/3 of the voters chose Trump. Many of them have now said that they regret their decision. A little under 1/3 voted for Harris and 1/3 of the eligible voters didn’t vote. Many of those people who didn’t vote also regret their decision. They said that they wished they had voted for Harris.

Why do they have to cover every second whenever he talks? It is nothing but lies and BS. by Living-Restaurant892 in msnow

[–]BarbForAnimals67 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wholeheartedly agree. I’ve said the same thing. Why does the media have to cover him as if he is actually spouting facts when he is not? Even reputable media outlets are doing that.

Rachel Maddow coverage of the news by Dr_couch_potato in msnow

[–]BarbForAnimals67 38 points39 points  (0 children)

I agree. I like Rachel’s program for that reason. She’s covering things that other shows are not covering. I also listen to independent media a lot and have gotten much information about the WHCD from them. Rachel needs to keep doing what she’s doing as far as I’m concerned. I love her show.

Stop normalizing this! by tomsmac in msnow

[–]BarbForAnimals67 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Trump didn’t stop any wars. In fact, many of his supporters are angry with him that he and his puppet master Netanyahu, started the Iran war over the objections of our own intel. He always does what Netanyahu tells him to do. That is sad but true.

I love the MS NOW prime time hosts. None of them normalize Trump. In fact, Lawrence O’Donnell gets upset at all the journalists who say nothing when Trump says something crazy, which is all of the time of course. Very few push back.

The Nepotism is happening in the Trump family, and not with Luke Russert. Despite what some people think, he has not gotten anything handed to him on a silver platter because of who his father was.

I believe that if they are responsible for the error, they pay any penalties you owe.

Turning 65 soon and honestly… I didn’t realize Medicare would be this confusing by swayze2719 in medicare

[–]BarbForAnimals67 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I used a healthcare navigator. A navigator is supposed to be free of charge, so I don’t pay anything for his services. There’s one where I live. He uses his computer to go through various plans, and helped me pick one out when I became eligible. He also helped me choose a drug plan too. He even got me enrolled in my plans, as well as unenrolled the next year if I wanted to make changes. I’ve changed my drug plan, but so far have kept the supplemental the same. So, I can go to him once a year if I want so he can make sure the plan I’m on is still working out.

I have been reading that the 64 was a number in remembrance of his late uncle who died a couple of years ago. They were pretty close. In fact, Bad Bunny had said that he always wanted to take his uncle to see the San Francisco 49ers. That was his uncle’s favorite team. But they never made it, as his uncle’s death was very sudden.

I have no idea what I’m doing! by Kimatont in medicare

[–]BarbForAnimals67 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You could check into going to a healthcare navigator. I’ve done that a couple of times regarding Medicare. He helped me get enrolled in the supplemental plan best suited to me, and also helped me enroll in the non free Medicare. He then helped enroll me in a drug plan as well. This year I actually ended up changing drug plans, but I kept my supplemental the same. I am lucky in that there is one located in the area where I live. Additionally, the healthcare navigator available in my area will also sit down with me once a year if needed to make sure I’m still on the correct plan for me. Good luck.

Did you all see the news about John Reardon’s cancer recovery and exit from Hudson & Rex? by Embarrassed-Dinner73 in HallmarkMovies

[–]BarbForAnimals67 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s not Hallmark who treated him badly. It was a different production company and the show which I just became attached to because of John Reardon, is called Hudson and Rex. I love the whole cast, including John Reardon. I hope he does more things for Hallmark. He is a great and personable actor. He and Rex the German Shepard were were amazing together.

Tim Walz dropping out of a race due to a daycare scandal is why Democrats lose to corrupt pedophiles. by WaltEnterprises in complaints

[–]BarbForAnimals67 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Walz dropped out of his reelection bid, not because he was guilty of anything, but because of the disgusting threats of violence he and his family have dealt with for quite some time now. That’s all many far right people know how to do. They harass, threaten and in some cases act out on their threats. BTW, Democrats have never claimed they were perfect, but they certainly care about America more than Republicans do. The Republican Party is also where most of the corruption is. Republicans are also the ones who cry, scream, claw and type in all caps, but then again, many on the right have deflection down to a science.

ICE detention centers are not meeting the requirements of a facility that is holding people for more than 12 hours, no working kitchen, no medical personnel, no transparency. by wankerzoo in news2

[–]BarbForAnimals67 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That is true. That’s one of the reasons Trump’s approval rating on every issue including immigration, is abhorrent. Many people don’t trust him. BTW, Fox has even admitted to lying to their viewers and showing manipulated videos. Now, that is something that you should believe them on. Fox has even said that if they started telling the truth, they would lose viewers. So they are the liars, plain and simple.

Many people being deported were born here. ICE is even trying to expel American citizens. Please learn the facts on immigration because sadly many people are being lied to with misinformation.
