Story that is familiar, i think, to far too many families across this country. a story of addiction and the sort of spiral that doesn t seem to have a bottom at times. it was really, really wrenching yesterday, the testimony by hallie biden. you know, it doesn t take away the alleged crime that hunter biden committed by any stretch of the imagination, but i do think that people maybe understand this on human terms. he will take the consequences, whatever those are. this is a story, as i said, that s just too familiar to far too many families. lisa, the prosecution says it
Hands of the president of the united states. it was impactful to see an individual who supports troops not just on the battlefield but when we return home. i see a man in joe biden who accepts accountability and responsibility. when i see his predecessor, donald trump, i see a man who is only in this for himself. who criticizes veterans, who doesn t see it important for him to go to the funerals. donald trump has zero accountability in his life. he is a draft dodger, simple as that. i think the election is the difference between authoritarianism and democracy. i came to see a president that cares about maintaining democracy. donald trump, he s not fit to be commander in chief. he s not fit to lead a squad. he s definitely not fit to be president of the united states. a new ad this morning from the biden/harris campaign. donny, what do you think? i love it. as i say, i hadn t seen the ad, and i was talking about the generals, but seeing the service member, seeing the mil

I mean, i don t think a voter will say what he is saying, i see abortion, democracy, inflation, i don t see revenge as an issue any voter has said is a key issue for him. the more donald trump talks about it, the better it is for biden. gene robinson, the story that, i don t know, it s just a snapshot of our time and where we are right now, that it sort of bends your mind. i ll read it to you. two officers who defended the capitol on january 6th were booed, were booed by pennsylvania republicans this week. it happened as former capitol police officer harry dunn, former capitol police sergeant ganell, who officers who helped protect the capitol on january 6th and prevent the overturning of the 2020 election visited the pennsylvania statehouse as par of a cross country tour to discuss the threat they say donald trump poses to the country. we re told some republican members not only booed but turned their backs on the
