Trump is Right: The Election is Rigged in Favor of Hillary (and the media is complicit)
Submitted by Steven D on Fri, 08/05/2016 - 2:46pmMy last video at Steven D Talks for this week. It discusses the fixation of the media on Trump's gaffes and the lack of coverage of evidence of Hillary and the DNC's misconduct as revealed by Wikileaks, and the numerous election fraud studies showing the likelihood Clinton benefited from numerous corrupt acts in the Democratic Party's 2016 primaries.

Gender at the Olympics
Submitted by Robyn on Fri, 08/05/2016 - 1:56pmOpening Ceremonies at the 2016 Olympics in Rio are this evening at Maracana Stadium...even though we are already through two days of Soccer competition.
The show was produced by film director Fernando Meirelles (City of God).
I hope that the Opening Ceremony will be a drug for depression in Brazil.

Wait til you watch and hear what Thom Hartmann has to tell us.
It was close, very close.
This hits hard. We worked hard in MA to pass a Right to Know bill. GMA ( Grocery Manufacturers of America) spent money, lots of money, lobbied hard, played the fear card, even the Democrats folded. Very sad.
Of course, this new law will also mean the much stronger VT law will eliminated. Sick. Sad. Scary!
