      Biden needs to apply pressure and threaten to bring charges against Manchin's crooked daughter (she was at the heart of the Mylan / Pfizer EpiPen price fixing scandal. Not only did she suffer no legal repercussions, she was allowed to "step down" along with a $38 Million "Exit Package". The Intercept did a really good piece on it.

      The current democratic leadership isn't doing a very good job convincing anyone why we should have more Dems in power, unfortunately. Biden has executive power that could fix these issues yet refuses to do anything. If you ask me, he is relieved he has Manchin to take the hit for blocking policies that we all know go against the interests of Biden's corporate backers. Rs will break the law and fight dirty to accomplish their goals. Dems won't even use the power they LEGALLY have to reach theirs. It's extremely discouraging. We need ALL of these Dems who accept corporate SuperPAC $$ to be primaried out as soon as they're up for reelection. Yes, Dems are marginally better than Rs on issues of rights, but the core driver in so much of what ails Washington is rotten on both sides of the aisle.

    Correction: If someone leaving a voicemail message went on too long, you would not hear a message saying that the inbox was full. Instead it would say something about how you've hit the maximum time for recording. It would then give you a few options to see if you want to leave the message as is or re-record. If the inbox was full, you wouldn't be able to record anything in the first place, and the call would get automatically disconnected.

      @@gracebellamy586 You really don't get it. It's amazing what you people will dismiss just to feel that you're "right." You're wrong. That was not merely processing hemp fiber. That fiber enabled the D-Day invasion. It was how America was able to fight and win World War II. It was the reason for the Baby Boom. It was the reason that you are alive today.
      And the government hid the film from your grandparents and your parents so that all of you could be fully and completely brainwashed from the moment that you were born with the lie that "Marihuana" will destroy America.
      This is bigger than the Zapruder film, and you diminish its severity by ignoring the bigger picture.
      *Hemp for Victory* is online at an official US government website. Your taxes paid for government workers to maintain the film online. At the same time, and for your entire life, your taxes also pay police to be equipped like soldiers in war against the American people over the exact same "Marihuana" plant that was legalized to save your freedom and democracy during World War II.
      In 1990, the same year that the film was officially listed in the US National Archives, the US Army joined with police and federal agents in a series of drug raids in northern California called Operation Green Sweep.
      Try to understand the severity of this hypocrisy.
      The US Army was raiding American homes over the same "Marihuana" plant that was used by the US Army to defend American homes through every war from the Revolution to World War II.
      Soldiers were descending from helicopters on ropes into Americans' backyards to eradicate the dreaded, evil "Marihuana" plant that could just as easily be legalized to make the ropes that the US Army was using.
      Does any of this make sense? Does any of this get through a lifetime of DARE bullshit and "Just Say No" propaganda?
      "Marihuana" is still illegal right now. This is not about ancient history or World War II. This is about what is happening right this minute. We are still paying billions of dollars in taxes every year to fund the war on drugs that never would have happened if *Hemp for Victory* had been taught in high schools since the 1950s. And we wouldn't be dealing with the increasingly devastating effects of climate change, either.
      But day after day after day, for generations, the overwhelming majority of American voters have never heard of *Hemp for Victory* because they're inundated 24 hours every day with mindless tripe from corporate mass media. They have you watching everything else except for *Hemp for Victory.* Videos of dorks getting haircuts get millions of more views in a single day than *Hemp for Victory* has had in the last 80 years.
      The legalization of "Marihuana" won World War II and stopped the Holocaust. It will solve all of your petty little problems today, too.
      Learn your history, and more importantly, learn _from_ your history.
      The world doesn't have to be this way. It can be better.

      You need a majority currently all 50 Democratic Senators to agree since there's an even split in the Senate. If there's a 50/50 split then the VP gets a tie breaking vote, which would mean Vice President Harris would be the 51st vote necessary to break the tie.
      But if Joe Leech Manchin (our apparently unelected President) decides he doesn't want to go through with it (for whatever reason certainly not because of bribes by the Republicans) he can side with them and make the final vote count 49 - 50, in that case then VP Harris doesn't get a vote and the bill dies

    I love Squirrel Nut Zippers and I’m so happy when they are referenced! But maybe your graphics dept (those cheeky devils, my favorite on corrections) could have a more recent picture since they are still touring and have different band members now. This band just played a free show at Braynt park in NYC this week. They are still touring and do an amazing show.

    6:03 The irony being that Fanta was made as a coca cola alternative in Germany due to the American trade embargo in 1940, so Mussolini drinking Fanta might not be the *worst* thing the brand would be associated with, and he might've drunk Fanta as it was released 5 years before his death

      Additionally, and I'm just quoting Wikipedia here, the current formulation of Fanta was developed in Italy in 1955.
      I hope all these layers of the joke were intentional.

    This governor just said that if someone breaks the law they should go to jail. Unless they are a politician. Then it's up to the voters.
