Waiting with bated breath to see who President-Elect Biden

nominates for the position of Attorney General ......

December 18, 2020

The House of Representatives...

Guys, I'm not understanding why people are concerned when President-Elect Biden choses a Dem. from the House for a position. He's nominating Deb Haaland for Secretary of the Interior but she's from New Mexico which has a Dem. Governor. Doesn't the Governor appoint someone - another Dem - to take her seat? So we haven't lost anything...what am I missing here?

"The Brainwashing of My Dad" (Documentary) - I was able to finally watch it on TUBI

which is a free channel you can access if you have a Roku stick on your T.V. Machine.....

I can't recommend it enough! The content covers a lot issues and situations that many of us here on DU already know about but (at least for me) still delves into some matters I didn't know about.

It's not "high quality" in terms of presentation but that didn't bother me what-so-ever. From what I've read, the creator, Jen Senko, financed it through a grant and Kickstarter.

"Uncomfortable Conversations With A Black Man...."

This is soooo good. Emmanuel Acho has several videos out and I think this one was especially good:

In your opinion, which covers were better than the original? I'll start......

God Eddie was amazing! And I know David was a handful but I think he was amazing too...

The Fairness Doctrine...

In another thread on DU, reinstating The Fairness Doctrine was mentioned. Who here on DU knows what's involved? I've wondered for quite some time why some of our Billionaires haven't bought some of these stations that spew such hatred that Limbaugh, Hannity, etc. have been engaging in for years.

Thanks for anyone's input....

About Upthevibe

I've been a member of DU since the very beginning....after that horrible fiasco - the sElection of 2000. My first user name was Lindsey, then I changed it to Nirvana555, and now it's Upthevibe. I had devices crash and I ended up having to change my user name. I've never been one to make a whole lot of original posts, but I consider myself a very active member in that I come to DU almost every day and read the wonderfully informative threads. I can't imagine what life would have been like over the past two decades without DU!
