Customer Reviews
Other views
Could really do with a different point of view from the US besides that left wing Niall Stanage. He mentions irrelevant news about Congresswomen Bobert and the comments she made about congresswoman Omar, but failed to mention the daily anti-semitism spewing from Omar’s disgusting hateful mouth.
Socialist clap trap
I agree. It does sound like 3 or 4 angry yippies who cannot deviate one iota from their Marxist playbook.
Good content
Interesting guests and an attempt at an earnest discussion with the intent of informing rather than titillating.
