Lately, many of us are pretty disgusted with CNN For lots of reasons that I wont go into here. I think most of us already know whats going on.
But Victor Blackwell is not part of that. Some Republican strategist guest named Julie just tried to push a both sides canard regarding the Paul Pelosi attack, and political violence. Victor did not let her get away with it and this is not the first time Ive seen him do this. Was anybody else watching? Ill try to find a video of it and post it if I can, but I thought we should recognize that he is being very courageous.

Or go online to CNNs sites, and his, and post a thank-you.
If only the bad guys are making any noise, or weighing in, in any way:
- thats the only side thatll get heard.
- those are the only talking points thatll get repeated or shared.
- thats the only commentary thatll gain any attention -Or traction.
- thats the only way to shape public opinion - and shape it OUR way.
- thats the way to support and present solidarity to others who may feel timid about speaking up if they think theyre alone in their leanings, or that nobody else gives a damn.
Make NOISE!!! No one will hear, see, read, or care about your opinion if you dont make it known.
If nothing else, PLEASE understand that your remaining silent only gives the opposition more room, more attention, and more clout. Theyll happily take whatever open or uncontested space they find.
