      @@HummingByrd-b1n what do you mean a dem activist? does she have the personal cell phone number Kamala’s chief of staff so she can text her to advise about campaign and national policy and to BEG Kamala to intervene her supporters from ransacking the capital hill building on Jan 6th, the way Sean Hannity did? Then, no, she isn’t an activist hack cosplaying as non-partisans fair and balanced journalists. Is she part of a “news org” that goes to court for a defamation case and argues that no one of proper and sound mind would take what their star news personalities says as serious? No on that either. So I guess she’s not a partisan activist hack reporting for an activist channel.
