Needs to be on every channel, not just news channels, every 15 minutes until MF45 resigns

In other words within the tweet "frame". It should take you right to the tweet.

I had a similar issue using Firefox--problem seemed to be with its Enhanced Tracking Protection. left end of the address bar, the shield icon allows you to adjust those settings (toggle it off or on), and that may allow you to see what's actually there.

I'm not familiar with Chrome--never used it. OTOH, problem may be something along that line for you. Sorry I can't be more help.

This is BY FAR the most thoroughly corrupt political party in the history of our nation.

RepubliCONs have become a truly fascist party, with absolutely no respect what so ever, for the Constitution or Rule of Law........

Dictionary: Fascism, a merging of Corporations and Government.

Goodbye USA, and welcome to the UCA....United Corporations of America.

AKA: United Grifters of America

Does anyone know who is responsible for them? They really pack a powerful emotional punch. I have seen almost all of them, I think, and they really tear Trump apart.

MeidasTouch makes the best ads this cycle imo. Honestly, I think Biden's digital ad team is slow. They probably have more overhead and need more approvals to get ads produced. MeidasTouch are better on their own. They just need more funding in order to broadcast there ads to TV or get ppl to view their ads.

The best ads are from independent sources like MeidasTouch and Lincoln project.
Unfortunately, I don't think that Biden's digital team is best to handle ads. Most of the ads that produces are either too long or not effective imo with few exceptions. Also there are no underlining message in all their ads and no slogans. I also think Biden's team is way too slow to produce ads. If I had to guess they use focus groups too much which slow the process. This could also be an issue at the managerial level. Even if MeidasTouch brought in I think they will be neutered. This is my speculation of course, but I don't see any of this changing anytime soon. So imo I think it better to fund this group with a chance to see these ads on-air.

I try to stick to transcripts only, or descriptions. I find that hearing him speak the words makes my BP rise.

JFC, I thought I hated George W. Turns out, it was a vague disdain, compared to how I feel about this walking trash heap.

to whom "What have you got to lose?" sounds exactly like a warning rattle. Do people really fall for that?
