“Politics without policy is a form of tyranny.” You said it! I would go one step further and say it is tyranny. Spotlight on Mitch McConnell.

I agree with all the points that you make in this article. I am exasperated with Manchin and Sinema but my real frustration is with the media--particularly reporters inside the beltway-- those who cover the White House and Congress. Manchin is an issue, but the real issue is the Republican obstruction, dishonesty, and power-hungry corruption that you point out. Over the last ten years I have seen the corporate media blatantly complicit with the Republican agenda. False equivalence and a double standard for Democrats have been the lowlights of their coverage. As a result, I have a few truthtellers to whom I turn as events scroll out on a daily basis. Dan Rather--you are one of my truthtellers. I value Nicolle Wallace and Rachel Maddow as well. I learn from both of them whenever I watch their programs. Keep telling the truth Dan. And making us look at it.
