- The rollback of reproductive rights, the push to end no-fault divorce, and gun laws that allow domestic abusers to own a firearm are turning the clock back on women’s rights. How can women preserve their freedoms?

Hurray for Katie Porter! She is right that Biden has been a really good president though a mediocre debater. If Couric is right about people just "waking up" and feeling Biden is too old, where the hell were they several years ago when they could have been searching for and "grooming" a Democrat to run in 24?? It is too darn late for them to start whining now (I am disappointed in Couric's comments).
I am also aggravated with her comments.-Susan
Her comments and attitude stall progress to move forward. Perhaps not the best choice for a panel of strong progressive women.
Biden is the Democrats' Presidential candidate. To change now shows fear, trepidation & uncertainty in our own policies & representatives. We MUST all vote blue to protect our democracy - not only for President but for Congress, state & local elections. Biden needs a good support system to surround him - not only his VP & Cabinet, but Congress so that he doesn't have to constantly fight against the GOP's petty crap just to be able to do his job. We also need to be proactive, not just reactive, on the issues & correspond not only with Biden & our members of Congress, but Biden's Cabinet & VP Harris (because they hold the keys to our future also).An email only takes a few minutes to write & corresponding with the VP & Cabinet helps them do their jobs better because they know firsthand, what issues concern Americans.
Mediocre. Is that what you call it. 😂
and this was not about the debate which is all Katie Vuric had on her mind.
I am so glad to see the women push back against Couric.💙💙💙💙
Sad to see Katie Couric throwing the President under the bus 😢😢
@@christaparenteau9430it is sad. I’m really disappointed in her. She absolutely dropped a few notches in my opinion.
💯
Katie’s wrong ..the majority is not waking up angry.. WE ARE WAKING UP READY TO FIGHT FOR OUR DEMOCRACY PERIOD!!!!!
Katie Couric is seeking first her standing with the corporate news machine. She is disrespectful to the guests and thinks the audience is unaware of the role she plays for her income.
Ms Porter is an extraordinary woman. May she bring truth to power forever! Her leadership is inspiring.
Love KATIE ❤💙💙💙💙
It also applies to private industry. What the leadership pipeline process ?
Why can’t we can Biden and replace him with her?
@@lorenzopesce5081 There's no time between now and the election to replace Biden. Maybe she will run next time!
@@sharimeline3077 I’m going to support Biden probably, politically I am a centrist and seriously tired of the democratic game of Trump is so bad so leave our creep in
Katie Porter is amazingly articulate. I would vote for her. Katie Porter and Pete Buttigieg for the next president and VP. I will not abandon Biden right now. We can’t have trump that’s for sure.
Great ticket. 👏🏽
Bless your heart that you believe there will be another election.
@@christinem9183 Yeah, you're likely not wrong...
I would vote for that ticket #2028.
That would be a great ticket. I would definitely vote for them
Katie Porter I so wanted to vote for you for my senator
I did vote for her.😢
I voted for her in primary as did my 18 year old son
Unfortunatly, she lost. What happen to californians?
Katie, please move to Washington (state). We need you.
I wish I could as well.
I am VOTING FOR THE PRESIDENT JOE BIDEN WHO HAS BEEN DOING A TREMENDOUS JOB FOR THE USA, OUR FREEDOM, RIGHTS, INDEPENDENCE‼️
DEMOCRACY 💯 👏 💯 👏 💯
🔵🔵🔵🔵🔵🔵🔵🔵🔵🔵🔵

Exactly
Why can’t people congratulate Joe Biden instead of acting like we need another candidate??
YES! AGREE❤
The THREE BADASS WOMEN on the panel are exactly the kind of leaders we need more of!!! PHENOMENAL!!!❤❤❤
YES!!!
Exactly WOMEN POWER X3
Katie go back to idk
Not impressed anymore
Amen
Totally
@@ashebarley77385 there are two Katies on the stage there, which one were you referring to?
YOUTH OF AMERICA! Your country needs your vote, and you need to vote to protect your fundamental rights ❤
I talked (okay, texted) with my 22 year old grandson yesterday. We both agree on issues and that young people are going to save democracy. Vote Save America is a good place to start learning about how to get started.
Thank you I’ll check that out!
I wish there were more politicians like Katie Porter. We have a few but not enough.
If not Biden, then Kamala!!!Women could and would get behind her if they look at her life experiences etc. Ideally
Agreed
Katie Couric should hace moderated the conversation instead of trying to tell the others what they should be saying.
💯 agree. She seemed often dismissive of others comments but kudos to her and all the panelists for their insights and call to actions.
She was horrible... quoting the NYT?? 🤮🤮🤮
Well said. Agree 100%
I’m not a fan of Katie Couric!
@@JGLy22086I was but NOT NOW
Katie Couric is wrong! Most of us KNOW that we must get beyond the debate. President Biden has done so much! He is not senile!-Susan
I agree with you. Everyone has naturally aged, but at least Joe is getting the job done and he's trying to help the everyday American as opposed to the TFG who spews nothing but lies everytime he opens his mouth and is only out for himself. REMEMBER PROJECT 2025
Biden is not senile, but there is clearly something medically going on at this time. Just because someone has done a good job in the past doesn't mean that they will do a good job in the future if they're not medically able. I think he is in a cognitive decline and a medical decline that's going to impact his ability to hold the office in the future. Whether you like it or not, the majority of the American people are seeing this. If people keep their head in the sand about this, Trump will win.
I'm not abandoning Biden!
Congratulations you just guaranteed Trump will win.
I hope I don't have to either, but he is not a charismatic leader; we need one. There are lots of them in the Democratic party; they're the ones that media need to be covering to carry the people's message.
@StopWhining491 ironic username. Biden has lots of charismatic surrogates and many of those will go on to compete for their names on the NEXT ticket. But Biden and his TEAM are doing great things for our country. And the fact that many Dems or Dem-leaning folks are willing to turn their backs on all that over a single debate performance...that is the worst response possible. Talk about "cancel culture".
@@MZinHIfully supporting Biden here.💙💙💙
I have followed President Biden since he was head of the Judiciary Committee that sent Clarence Thomas to full Senate for their endorsement to the Supreme Court, without actually endorsing him. The Committee vote was actually 7 for and 7 against.
He was always an extraordinary advocate for all Americans, probably the most effective and relied upon vice-president since America was born, and an accomplished statesman. He is currently rated by historians as the eleventh best president ever, in his first term! He would have had an even bigger impact on jobs, uplifting the poor, climate change, redistribution of wealth, and border/immigration improvements if not for total opposition from the current do-nothing congressional leadership.
We would be nuts to not support the best president in my baby-boomer lifetime for re-election.
Ex-President Trump, Former President Trump not President Trump!!!
i hate to be the one to tell you, but there's a tradition of using that title for the remainder of their life - it's weird but that's the way it is
@Medina-bk2fo Traditionally, we don't have convicted criminals as former leaders. Tradition has been broken.
Katie Porter is a national treasure!
Katie Porter is amazing. Wish all politicians were more like her!
🇨🇦 stick with President Biden. He has done a fabulous job.
You want the man who gutted title IX? There's misogyny on both sides. So tired of each side only seeing the problems on the other side.
lollllllll
porter is amazing
❤
I'm like - if only she was running for president. I adore her. She's amazing.
Porter for pres!
How so?
I absolutely love Ms. Porter
Katie Porter is on Fire 🔥🔥🔥
Always!
100% still with Biden. Sure we could have done it differently in the past and had a system of moving women and young people forward into the party. But we didn't. Biden is absolutely the best person for the job right now.
Agree! Support Joe Biden all the way. Support democracy all the way. VOTE BLUE on every ballot. Democracy is on the ballot. GOP wants everyone to go back to project 2025.
Love, love, love Katie Porter!! You're my hero!
Couric you are supposed to be a moderator here .. not rage on about your opinion on the debate
Exactly
SERIOUSLY!
Don’t like her….where has SHE been these past years on the trump issues? I never saw her using her influence to make speeches, join others doing so, etc…….(but she is wealthy…..and so she will be the LEAST affected by trumps reign…..in fact she and all the other wealthy people will gain ANOTHER tax cut(so trump says) when he takes office….i am sick of all the rich “saying or pretending” they know what it’s like to work two jobs, get paid a spit above minimum wage and try to raise a family…..and have adequate health care…😡
she has always come across “to me” as ……she’s above everyone else…😞
OMG Katie Porter I’m so happy you mentioned Pete Buttigieg!
Why aren’t we contrasting what Biden actually said in response to the debate questions with what trump said? Why aren’t we addressing the dozens of lies trump stated and his rejection of several debate questions?
The focus on Biden’s age and voice are far less important than the validity of his statements and the quality of his record as President.
You are 100% correct
True that!!!!
THANK YOU!!
Exactly! There is nothing said about trump and his lies. it is all about Biden.
Exactly
We cannot risk choosing someone new at this point. We should not be in this position but this is what it is. Democracy is on the line and I believe Biden’s sane administration will keep Democracy afloat. Relax, Katie Couric. Thank you, Katie Porter, for keeping your head on straight.
you are right. panic does not win politics.
I’m still for Biden/Harris!
Katie Curic practically begging people to agree with her about replacing Biden. Omg. That was kinda pathetic. 😂
Yes,way too much discussion about replacing Mr. Biden instead of offering ideas on goals to be achieved in the next 4 years by his second administration.
And she is very wrong to boot.
Absolutely love Katie Porter and how she calls people out so effectively - no fooling around!
Couric, shit up! Don't chime in, let people talk unimpeded.
Exactly she knows the least and wants to talk the most…. Hush, Katie.
Couric is more educated than Porter on Biden. Too many delusional about Biden. Own mistakes, yes about Biden too.
I AGREE WITH KATIE MY CALI GIRL. I AM VOTING FOR BIDEN
Katie Couric a huge disappointment. Proud of other three women for not caving into her determination to bash Pres. Biden.
AGREED!!!
How so? She's being honest and providing facts. I'm not a Katie Couric fan. But, she is leading a panel discussion. Posing questions.
Exactly WHAT I THOUGHT TOO! She did a horrible job in interviewing these ladies
NOT IMPRESSED AT ALL
@@denicefetzer5561 I think when couric got her brow lift she reduced blood flow to her brain.
Katie Couric had major boomer energy & not the good kind that supports & inspires (that I'm used to her having), but the kind that results in memes & "ok boomer" responses. I'm extremely disappointed in her too.
92 million eligible voters did not participate in 2020. Find them, register them, and get them to the polls.
Agreed. In spite of that, the Democrats stopped the "Red Wave" and now the stakes are even higher. As I said in a prior post "Spread the word, ladies".
Katie Porter is very knowledgeable, wise and intelligent. A woman for me to aspire to become 💙
@@crazyneedstostop i can't believe how much she is doing, how articulate! She brings in statistics on a white board and Margory Taylor Green shows pictures of Hunter Biden's bottom. On the House floor!
Katie Porter is so good.
Biden being old and slow vs. a dictator? Whats to hesitation? I’d vote for a corpse over Trump.
You voting for a corpse over Trump does not change the fact that the majority of the American people are not feeling the same way. A lot of Republicans do not like Trump either, but with the decline that Biden is undergoing (not because he is too old), those Republicans will end up voting for Trump in the end.
I was so excited to watch this, but I'm very disappointed in Katie Couric's insistence on pushing negativity about Biden in the beginning. It was so off-putting! I'm proud that the other women on the panel tried to put things into perspective. Newsom/Porter 2028!!!
You will find out Couric was right. Much self deception out there about Biden.
Thank you for saying this. We must move forward with VIABLE efforts to defeat the evil. Katie Porter was fabulous!
ME TOO! She was trying to put Biden down!
She has always been this way
💯 ❤
Katie hit the nail on the head. How are we grooming the next generation of leaders?
I’m with Joe 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Katie Porter needs to keep plowing through political bureaucracy - she is spot on for the American woman & family
Porter is right. Pay as much attention to those who do not show up as we do to voters in swing states.
Respectfully, Ms. Porter, a lot of the problem with old politicians who won't move on is two words: TERM LIMITS. Take your term consecutively or when you win between terms, but have term limits. That way you get new blood into the system. And get rid of lobbyists...
This will not get rid of lobbyists, but it’s a start.
@@user-cr4vb4zb6whow can we do it? This is the kind of issue that is beyond my ken.
If you listened to her that’s exactly what she said-Susan
@@mikebootheSusan, I'm curious. Why are you commenting under the name Mike? It's weird, considering the subjects of the panel discussions.
What the hell? Melissa should talk on and on we are privileged and lucky to have her there Educating everybody for free

Katie Couric - don't care for your interview comments
I'm voting Joe
Katie C., you're focused on the wrong candidate.
Katie P. is awesome and I hope she finds her way into biden's next administration. I've concluded after cruising through msm, journalists like drama. This is not the time to make drama. I talked to my daughter about the significance of the crossroads. Let's get through the election... remember we have a VP ✌🏾
Katie Porter was a teacher before she became an U.S. Congress Member. A good teacher creates good students, good students create good communities, good communities create good country.
Based from many comments below, Katie Porter is doing much better now with these forums and conferences than stay in congress. Running for congress, only CA people can vote for her. Doing this forum and conference people around the country can vote for her. For now, this is the best place for her to educate people about what wrong and what need to be fixed in the Govt / Congress / US Supreme Court. Katie Porter will be back to the Congress with a better vision for sure.
She also is a lawyer
Katie Porter for President!!!
I really enjoy hearing from all the women on the panel, especially Katie Porter! She is really a dynamic force!
The moderator is trying to be an intelligent panelist but is so crude and off point. Let's stay with an intelligent wise President, who has aged faster because of the horrendous situation he took on.
❤
Katie, thank you so much for stepping up to support Biden President Biden and to demonstrate articulate how to get more women in leadership roles in the government!!💙💙💙💙💙
Rep Porter is on point every time!
We went 250 years backwards a few days ago.
what event? to what do you refer, please?
@@Medina-bk2fo If you don't know what happened July 1st 2024. I can't tell you the damage. We rejected Kings in America as was the tradition set by George Washington. The Supreme Court has too much power now. Americans are not free to decide their destiny anymore.
what happens in America, including women's rights, influences the world. very important 🙏
Great discussion.
Yes, the religious right, with its tentacles throughout state gov. up to the SC, is working against women.
exactly - THANK you
These intelligent women moved past the debate, Katie should move past it as well.
Thank you all, this was powerfully important. In the 70s, I was dating an abusive alcoholic. When the cops were called, they would say, “ what did you do to deserve it? Or you’re not gonna make us take him to Saginaw are you? You’ll just be back in his bed tonight.” Project 25 will take us back to that time in our history.
The gathering of powerful women like you amazingly wise speaker’s is critical at this time so we don’t go backwards. Now is the time to stand up and speak out.
And Kaite Porter, I would love to see you in a debate with Donald Trump. He wouldn’t know what hit him. I hope you run for president someday, you certainly have my vote.
I’m so glad you got yourself out of that situation. Project 2025 would take us back to the dark ages. I know you’ll vote blue!
@@teschchr122 💙💙💙
What a great talk every woman in the US needs to watch 🗳️💙 for our. Future rights
We are entering even darker times for women….
Confused with Couric’s pursuit in pursuing Biden’s debate debacle. Neither of the three women relented.
All these media pundits have really shown who they are--really despicable people!
President Biden looked tired, but he didn't lie and I thought
trump was as usual a man who lied each time he opened his mouth, he shows how much diestain he has for women. I will vote for President Biden he is the best and we need to stand by him. And I strongly stand by our President. I'm voting blue all the way up and down the ticket.
He lied a lot. How about him saying no military personnel died on his watch. All politicians lie!
CNN said Biden lied many times during the debate.
He may not of lied but did worse. No soldiers died on his watch!!! Forgot Afghanistan withdrawal deaths?
@@gerriperreault6905 I said that, it got removed.
I think you forgot that Trump set up that withdrawal. Biden had no choice but to finish it under the time limits Trump set up!
Katie Porter - Where was I a year ago - voting for the ONLY DEMOCRAT on my primary ticket. We had no choice!
So glad Katie Couric waa on this panel. I often wondered about her listening skills. This conversation demonstrated that her ability to listen to responses is low. Judy Woodruff would have been a better facilitator with her skills to listen and draw out more information based on responses from those she spoke with in conversations.
Thank you Aspen Institute for putting together such an intelligent trio of rockstar women❤❤❤❤
I wish they would have talked about how the Supreme Court may it legal to bribe an elected official.
I love Katie Porter! She’s SO Pragmatic!
I love you Katie Porter. I hope some day I can vote for you for President!
Biden worked on building the most competent administration team even before he won office in 2020, and that team can keep doing a great job even if Biden's health goes to h3ck or even if Biden dies in office. I'd prefer to stick with Biden despite his health issues because I'm voting for a great administrative team that believes in democracy and working together for the people and the planet. I'm confident that if Biden declines, his team will keep it all going, with or without him, and that Biden can be persuaded to step aside and let Kamala do the job when he realizes he can't do it the way it deserves to be done. He already did so once when having his colonoscopy procedure, I've nor reason to think Joe will not hand off power when his health is failing even temporarily, or that the White House team would not use the 25th amendment rapidly to replace Joe if he should become incapacitated and unable to do his job. This is very different from how DJT behaved while in office; when DJT thought he might be dying of COVID and let his doctors bully him into going to the hospital, he did not hand off power to Pence, rather he would have clung to power until he died while in office, and if he had ended up in a vegetative state, the country would have been left without leadership too long while those GOP jockeying for power got around to using the 25th amendment to replace DJT. Also DJT doesn't build a great competent team around himself, only a cult of personality, his admin had the highest turnover and infighting (which DJT enjoyed) of almost any POTUS, and sometimes it was incapacitating. DJT doesn't want highly competent people in office who will challenge what he says, rather he puts people in office who will always kiss up to him, even if that means they are incompetent and don't do their jobs or allow their departments to do their jobs. That is one of the scariest parts of DJT's Project 2025, is that they plan to purge the entire executive branch of anyone who doesn't pass their Trump loyalist test, and they will replace all the fired people with Trump loyalists, even though that means they will be putting incompetent people into jobs that really need highly competent people, such as managing nuclear power plants and the nuclear arsenal.
Team was incompetent on gaza and ukraine
@@gerriperreault6905are you brainwashed? Biden has gotten weapons to those allies with real reason to need them and stopped or slowed offensive weapons to the ally that has been misusing them. And he found work-around, requiring huge efforts by our own service members, to get aide to people who need it. But a huge ship, like the cornerstone of U.S. foreign relations, cannot turn on a dime. I was angry for a time about Biden's reluctance to change U.S. policy when it comes to Israel, but I now understand that facts needed to be verified and a whole new strategy in the region needed to be thought out and negotiated with other powers in the region. And he heard the calls for an end to the bloodshed and the starvation....it is Netanyahu and Putin who haven't.
I agree with all the points on Biden and his great team! I agree he has been WAY to tolerant with Israel on GAZA, but he has stood behind Ukraine 100%, who would have thought the Republicans would block Ukraine funding and support Russia?
Just found this channel, this discussion this AM. REALLY disappointed how few views this video/channel has gotten, especially given the quality of the participants and the dialogue. Way more people need to watch this.
Nancy read my mind-
Nancy Pelosi Says It's Fair To Ask Questions About Joe Biden's Health
But the former House speaker said the same "legitimate" questions about mental acuity should also be asked about former President Donald Trump.
Historian Heather Cox Richardson writes: Gish Gallop, "It's a rhetorical technique in which someone throws out a fast string of lies,non-sequiturs, and specious arguments, so many that it is impossible to fact-check or rebut them in the amount of time it took to say them. Trying to figure out how to respond makes the opponent look confused, because they don't know where to start grappling with the flood that just happened. It's a form of gaslighting". For me as a voter, there was no debate, gaslighting took it. The monitors delivered gaslighting for us shutting off the mich did nothing. Some men just are not civil. Would party policy written, and read aloud for at least this election cycle actually give the voter the chance to know policy proposed? I think so.
That's exactly what happened.. along w/ the president's globe trotting schedule & subsequent cold...
Great comment from Heather Cox Richsrdson -thank you!
Heather Cox Richardson would have been a fabulous addition to this panel. After reading the comments here, I feel much more optimistic than I did after listening to the discussion.
When Katie Porter says that women feel like this in everyday life that they are repressed she is right. All you need to do is go into any type of medical industry. Although there are great women doctors the male to women ratio of power with men having more power. Just see how a nurse is treated when a doctor speaks. And if you've been in a delivery room you know those nurses do most the work. And this is just one major industry. To be a fly on the wall of all the rest this is why women always vote with men.
Instead of a typical presidential debate I would rather have the candidates (Biden, Trump) sit down individually/separately and give long form answers to serious questions that a president would actually deal with. Then show the responses side by side, no cutting or editing, no help, no notes. Two minute answers is ridiculous.
Katie for President
Someone needs to to talk about what Joe Biden had been doing for the last few days Before the debate. He was flying across the world to meet with world leaders and then flying home and meeting with political leaders.
Exactly, and Trump played golf/ cheated at golf
Something I discovered by listening to Thom Hartmann and then investigating on my own is this. Right after the Equal Rights Amendment for men was signed into being, and Equal Rights Amendment for Women was brought into being by the ERA. For almost 40 years it circulated amongst the states, it lacked 16 states fir it to be ratified and placed inyo the constitution!
In 2021 a republican based group brought it in front of a sympathetic Federal judge who dismissed it as expired. Attempts had been made to extend the deadline but were stalled by republican politicians.
Thom Hartmann reported in 2022 that 244 womens rights bills were set to be re-ratified by congress as they have been every 10 years, dome since the early 1900s. Not one House nor Senate republican politician voted for them...not one! These had to be re-done every 10 years because republican politicians refused to vote for them otherwise.
2023 Rowe v Wade was dismissed by the Republican appointed Justices on the Supreme. Afterwards Red states put into place prepared anti abortion laws that they had formated as soon as it was known the Justices had accepted the case.
Now I am hearing politicians state women have too much power, they shouldn't vote, go to college, have control over their own bodies as to how many children they bare and on and on.
They are on a roll to put women back into the 1800s when we had no control over anything!
Great Panel of strong, brilliant women sharing their insights of how they would fix this messed up Country. Thank you Katie for assembling this discussion.
Whoa, why is Katie Couric interrupting so much, trying to turn the conversation? Ugh.
How much more brilliant Melissa Murray looks in the Q&A for nailing the immunity ruling. But final answer if you're a woman in the US, or have a daughter and want her not to be a 2nd class citizen you have to support the Democratic nominee. Which is why I didn't watch the debate because nothing else takes priority.
Accomplished smart women like these 4 will be the change this country needs!! Thank you for giving me a bit of hope ❤
And young people! My grandson (22 today) who lives in Utah agrees on the issues.
Vote BLUE and encourage your family to vote!
I’d love to see a lot less handwringing and a lot more of these professionals actually organizing and enacting a strategic plan that will create justice and democracy. Organize and execute a long range plan on all levels just as the right wing has. Demonstrations and conferences don’t change much. We need long range media plans and all-level elections of democratic minded politicians.
I’m watching this 8 days later and I’m not worried about Biden’s age or health.
I’m frustrated with whoever coached him….he was exhausted from travel and events.
He rested the whole week before the debate. He was sick but his problem may have been that he was trying to make sense of what Trump was saying so he could answer him, but Trump was gaslighting and lying so Biden couldn’t concentrate in the time allowed. These debates are not representative of how a president works. -Susan

We have a standard bearer! Get over the freaking debate!!
Love that point by Katie of having a system to discuss sharing power and having the foresight to prepare for new leaders in the party.
Katie, thank you so much for speaking the truth about Biden and supporting him! For your truths. What would a Congress with a majority of Katie Porter type representatives be able to accomplish? Why can’t this be a reality?
Dangerous to change horses in the middle of the stream. ALL of Katie Porter"s talking points are true in my view. We'll just come out on more solid ground as a country, if we START working on them and not kid ourselves about trying to scurry around to find a NEW presidential candidate for the 2024 election. Dumb. Dumb. Dumb. Change, yes. TIMING deserves attention. I think everything fantasized and projected at this late date, in some insane dash to find 'a savior', reflects that discomfort from such voices reacting this way- NOW. Voices of those who are perhaps (unconsciously) conditioned to avoid FACING the truth, in the (life)time that kind of real change Katie Porter points to, requires. AND that change to stand and confront skillfully requires REAL skills needed by each of us. Reactionism and judgmentalism are OUT, folks. It's personal coping skills building time.
These women are brilliant!
Okay, but don't - PLEASE don't call the orange guy "The President". He is the Former President.
I think they should always refer to him as "Twice-impeached, 34 times a felon, convicted sex offender, business fraud and former failed president"!
Great discussion, thanks for sharing
Great! We absolutely need a path of experience to bring up youthful successors for lawmakers in every lawmaking body. It has been essential and needed for a long, long time.
We also need to restore civics and patriotism in our public schools. Neither of my adolescent grandchildren can recite the Pedge of A. Nor the Preamble to the C.
Four amazing, funny, and intelligent women, talking about the major issues. Refreshing!
Those of us who fought through women's rights movement will never go back.
My opinion is President Joe Biden had to decide , given two minutes to respond , whether to answer the question or " fact check " the lies while in disbelief that the moderators did not fact check ANY of the lies or verbal attacks by his debate rival ... 🇺🇲💙☠️ Ridin' with Biden 2024 🗽⚖️🦅💙🇺🇲
When people were saying Bernie was too old and the DNC wanted Biden instead, I hope the hindsight on this is humbling for them.
Absolutely right Katic Porter.
We need solutions. We need paths forward.
I would vote for Katie Porter in a New York minute! She is clear on the issue, taking no BS from her opponents. Such a loss that we, as women, keep being pushed down!!
