  4. Garland KNOWS the Republicans are going to go after him for impeachment. He’s made the right decision to insulate the DOJ… they derail Garland the whole investigation would be derailed.

  5. I agree with Roland the American people think Trump gets another level of legal protection than us the American people… it’s not fair… we’re all tired of it…but we know the Republicans don’t play fair…we have to fight back legally not off our emotions. The jury of public opinion will move forward.

  6. Women can't wear head dress, cultural head wraps, religious head dress, or covers while in training and using the Zoom app. Hyundai let me go while I was in training because I spoke up against it. Hyundai has a very racist culture. I was very ashamed of what some of the people there were doing to keep a job. Rude, disrespectful, unprofessional, and racist is the atmosphere at Hyundai.

  7. Roland, you need to allow your guests to explain their questions. You get a little too excited and interrupt. Yes, if you have alternative facts, you have to wait until they're done. We know you're all about facts, but the fact is maintain and calm down.

  8. Roland is right on target.
    We need public pressure to move to charges from the DOJ now. DOJ told Americans we must wait until the primary is over before charges are filed. This is "White Wash."

  9. The panelists are extremely committed, patient and secure in their knowledge. They understand the value of this type of program because week after week, they attempt to add expertise while they endure being interrupted, screamed at and disrespected. The show would be so much more powerful without the egocentric rants from the host. It's hard to listen to all that yelling,, name calling and interrupting but we are trying to stay with it because this platform is crucial. Hoping for improvement.
