So today we talked about how the news media is dropping the ball when it comes to covering the authoritarian regime in the White House, we talked about her reaction to Rush reforming for a major tour next year, and more. DonnaHalper.com to follow her writing. @devorahleah.bsky.social on Bluesky. Meantime, make sure to support this podcast by subscribing at patreon.com/bobcescashow.
