Your so called leaders are better protected than your children are in their schools. I wonder why? More than a couple of western countries have had firearms ownership banned after school sh00tings. People, don't EVER trust ANY of your so called leaders from EITHER major political party. The left will not stop until they ban firearms ownership, so they can cram their agenda down our throats. I'm actually quite distrustful of Republicans now, as well. Why are they not protecting schools? I've seen 300 pound resource officers, ill coordinated male and female officers ready for retirement. Schools are not the place to put new officers, officers with discipline problems , physically unfit people , or people biding their time, just waiting to retire. Public schools aren't " hardened " like banks, or other government facilities. Why not ? What the actual flying fudge is Theron talking about, mentioning white males specifically, and not mentioning black males who are out there committing all manner of crimes with guns EVERY day? Hate? I think the ARMED young black males who roughed up a 71 year old black woman and carjacked her certainly didn't ' love ' her. Theron's biases show clearly. Melita doesn't realize that the right to bear arms is the ULTIMATE safety of the people against oppression. She is ignorant of History. The Declaration, the Constitution, the Bill of Rights had inbuilt components that enabled the freeing of the slaves later on, and it did happen. Many colonists wanted to end slavery but they were stonewalled by King George's policies , and later certain states stonewalled emancipation , which would have hindererd the creation of the country had emancipation been affected that soon, so they took it off the table in the name of unity and independence. Jefferson warned of a " firebell in the night " if slavery was left in place. National sins are punished by national calamities. Our punishment for slavery was the civil war, the " firebell in the night " , Jefferson had warned about around 90 years before. The only things wrong with the founding documents is that black people were not initially beneficiaries of their protections. That has changed, so there are no further issues. All Americans and guests are protected by those documents. We should honor them. The axial flow jet engine was created in Germany in the WWII period. So, should we stop flying Delta now, because of that? Melita's ' logic ' doesn't really hold up. She apparently wants the Constitution gone. Why ? So, she can force other people to live as SHE thinks that they should? Slavery and slave holders are no longer ( if they ever truly were ) arguments against the founding documents. Leave them alone. Our main problem in this country is an inability to grow up and take personal, individual responsibility for our own lives. Politicians love that because it enables them to try and usher in a Nanny State. Americans resist this attack on your personal freedoms with all you have. Yes, freedom is dangerous. The only thing more dangerous is not having it.
😂 the show today was good until PHIL mentioned Fulton Co district attorney Foni Willis ( intentionally) republican negative talking point for no reason 😮 then he INTERRUPTED the Democrat woman host THE SAME WAY he does th male Democrat😊
Nuts are everywhere. The gun did not kill anybody, the people killed people. It's no different than drive-byes. Both blacks and whites have the same problems. Kids with guns can be a problem regardless of color and types of guns..
Last week AT-S was scolded for name calling. How is it that Phil can call Tim Walz an “emotional support animal” with impunity? Also, much respect to Martha for just being sensible. It’s refreshing to see.
Phil’s comment during winners and losers in which he slips in a comment about DEI. Appears he forgot he is on a show that is “Diversity Equity Inclusion” with a white female moderator, two white females panelists, and one black male panelist. Maybe Phil would just like himself and four old white guys.
The question that needs to be answered is have transwomen been shown to have physical advantages over biological women in sports competition? Deal with that question first.
Why does Kamala change her voice and affectations in different places like Georgia she puts a twang in her voice to appeal or insult then when she hits a black city she changes to black voice then she’ll change again in Louisiana to creole…I’m not impressed but insulted.
Then you're too sensitive, and maybe should ask trump why his voice changes high low ( energy ) haven't heard anyone question his voice or his laugh ! That's the problem with foolishness, and culture politics. Petty .
@@corneliabraswell2623 I like Trump because he doesn’t need to speak black, white, creole, Mexican, Canadian, Iranian, Indian, or whatever affectation Kamala has to speak to make believe that she is your ally. The is the USA Jack!!!!
trump 2024 harris hasnt done shtt 3 1/2 years what makes yall think she gone do something 4 more years? look at economy. look at open boreder she post been border czar. she done shtty job let millions undocumented ppl in. the country run as business an she not the right person for job! ppl talk shtt about trump but yet she tryin use his tax cuts noww that she runing for president wanna do something for wall. she supports eliminating private health insurance. she supports defunding police. she promoted a fund to bail out violent protesters during 2020 riots. she supports abolished ice. this woman is not for America!
Omg, every week Phil sounds more and more MAGA, lets stop Trump's divisiveness in our country. Conservative Republicans where are you? Is Vance a misogynist? Women where are you? Speak up and speak out! Governor Kemp you don't need Trump, he is an embarrassment to the party.
FOX needs to find a Republican like Martha to balance the lineup. Phil, the 'MAGA Shill' brings nothing to the show other than yesterday's talking points and misinformation. Thanks to Cathy, Tharon, Martha, and Lori for a great show. Cheers
May we never see Janelle King on this show ever again. Her complicity in attempting to usurp the voice of the people at the polls disqualifies her from any credible place on this panel. She has no credibility and no integrity to be part of any discussion on democracy. And Phil: the point is not that Democrats once held the majority and now Republicans do, "so what?" The point is what the MAGA's are attempting to do with that majority. But leave it to you to ensure that the obtuse are well represented. See? They do not need Janelle at al!!!
Phil should be tired from talking out the side of his neck and the double speak. The election board is headed for trouble. The people are not fools. The MAGA (you know who) is whispering in those three individuals ear. Shameful behavior.
Why does Kemp need the work requirement in order to get Medicaid? As far as "healthcare is a right". That can get complicated. You'll need to come up with the right healthcare system for meeting that right. Which healthcare model will provide this right?
Nice show, Lori. Always glad to see Brian there holding the line for the Republicans. Melita and Alisha keeping it real for the Democrats. And Phil, he's the maga shill.
Good show folks! Phil can be a bit negative at times, his loser for the week was focused on what was going on outside the DNC. Let's not forget that both parties had outside rallies at the conventions. I cannot believe Govt Kemp will rally for that criminal " Douche bag Trump" I am a conservative Republican, he does not have my vote, LOCK HIM UP, PLEASE!
PHIL, We are tired of the Republican voter suppression and YOUR " set up " for more chaos that is being led by the Republicans in the state of Georgia. We all know our elections are free and fair and the last three cycles have WILDLY confirmed that fact with over 60 court cases, Multiple recounts and investigations that have PROVED without doubt there is no reason to question American elections. The Voter Suppression tactics in the state of Georgia WON'T WORK will DOOM the Republican party and regardless of the Chaos you and your MAGA board members are attempting to sow.... We're done. Georgians are going to vote for Progress, Hope and a bright future.... there's NOTHING for us in Project 2025.- NOTHING AMERICAN., nothing democratic, and nothing we will accept.- we are Americans. Brace yourself to graciously accept defeat because it's coming. This country has work to do , Americans to care for , and the future to meet ; the chaos whining days are coming to an end. Hallelujah. Upward and onward. TOGETHER...; as Americans.
Yeah, we want more communists agendas that we as Americans will pay for while others with multiple citizenship build their country with American dollars..GOOD LUCK!!
Better change it now rather than during the election like the Dumocrats. If he is a Republican, I'm a jet pilot. You can't fix stupid! Joy was the Nazi theme during WWII. He came out against it because it was right. The BS is getting pretty deep on the set. Do they forget Kamala was there during the last 3 yrs. Words don't matter with the Dumocrats. Just remember you get what you vote for: ie the economy and world affairs.
