They are religious extremist, White Supremicist, misogynistic, oligarchy apologists that lie 24/7 and are run by toxic malignant criminals. The other networks attempt to tell the truth and are far too politely moderate for my taste. https://t.co/UCeDemwgXN — đStevie Van ZandtâŽď¸ (@StevieVanZandt) August 12, 2022 More news and your comments below.

Let's be blunt.
Weâve got people behind bars while others make millions in the cannabis industry. On 4/20, we need @POTUS to pardon all cannabis convictions, wipe marijuana debt, free anyone currently incarcerated for it and LEGALIZE marijuana.

Legalize marijuana. Expunge past marijuana convictions. End the failed War on Drugs.

Benny’s Bar will be open later for mocktails and other libations. Join us in the comments below!
Hello birdies,
This AM we open with some survey data collected by the Center for Politics at UVA.
1. This morning, the @Center4Politics and a new group called Project Home Fire launched a new polling/data analytics project aimed at understanding the social, political, and psychological divides between Biden and Trump votershttps://t.co/42cosYKOLm

2. Some of the takeaways:
There is some potential agreement on policy matters, but there are marked differences in their levels of support for some recent proposals discussed in BIF/reconciliation saga https://t.co/42cosYKOLm pic.twitter.com/MkPCYI2bfp

3. That said, Biden/Trump voters display an alarming level of distrust toward the other side. One finding: more than 3/4s of Biden/Trump voters view elected officials from the other side as presenting a "clear and present danger to American democracy." https://t.co/42cosYKOLm pic.twitter.com/S0n2BIMgTR
— Kyle Kondik (@kkondik) September 30, 2021
4. Beyond that, you can see significant numbers of Biden/Trump voters associating their opposing voters as being akin to socialists or fascists and expressing support for censoring extreme media from the other side https://t.co/42cosYKOLm pic.twitter.com/13wAGOEnjW
— Kyle Kondik (@kkondik) September 30, 2021
5. Another finding of interest: Close to half of both Biden/Trump voters agree it would be better if a âPresident could take needed actions without being constrained by Congress or courtsâ pic.twitter.com/6AQjX6ohWC
— Kyle Kondik (@kkondik) September 30, 2021
6. This is all based on a survey we conducted in late July/early August w/ roughly 1,000 Biden voters & 1,000 Trump voters. More info and findings here: https://t.co/42cosYKOLm
