Thank you for the link. I was able to find the lyrics. so copy/pasted it into a .doc that I can share. Love it! My local Democratic Club comes to mind. My family, friends, and community are split thanks to [@#@$#$%#@], so I'm limited on where I can share this. Unfortunately, until the evil directly strikes home to so many in our country, we suffer, wait, engage where and when we can, and endure. True. But Music Mends the MInd, so I remain hopeful and optimistic. Our beloved country is too spectacular to perish if left in the hands of our current [QW@$#$%#] !!!!!!

The broadcast license are owned by your local TV stations not by Paramount or CBS News. They just sell their programs to the local stations.

How do I find my local station? I assumed it was CBS but I know it goes through towers etc, I've had an antenna since 2021, got rid of Direct TV refused to get 2 shows if lucky and the renewal was like 2 years otherwise it's law and order SUV on every single network! I get free Paramount plus from Walmart otherwise I'd get rid of them also! Women need to learn how to hook up a outside antenna! I'm on my 2nd one since they changed the digital signal from 1.0 to 3 cuz of the broadcast pirates? Seriously I didn't know they existed 😂 I bought a cheap drill and used the existing direct TV wires including the grounding & wired it to my balcony

America is officially a rogue country. They are no longer a free country. All freedoms to operate as usual are suspended. That the largest corporations in the country are cow-towing to Trump is the nail in the coffin for America. The entire world is watching and find it unbelievable how easily he has done this. I guess everybody is thinking, "well is doesn't affect me" until it does. Soon come.

Yes. Even his Maga Klan are at risk if they don't toe the line. Lets face it, these companies paying him to leave them the hell alone are PAYING BRIBES! Of course they won't admit it. If they want to work in Trump's America then they have to do it by Trumps rules. Putin and Kim Jong taught him well. They go straight to the equivalent of Siberia in America - Alligator Alcatraz. Bet you didn't see that coming either mega-morons!

I'm sure that old AZ ex-Sheriff Joe Arpaio that Trump pardoned during his first admin helped with the idea. He made inmates live in tent city in AZ desert and wear pink underwear and clothing. Finally shut that crap down as inhumane. They busted him for profiling hispanics and Trump rescued him before he even went to court

That's not penal servitude, that's sadism. Also Trumps pardons everybody for things he himself is doing or has thought of doing. Now the courts can't hold him to account as the sky's the limit in his cruelty threshold. Literally!

Your the one who is deluded lying Ruzzian retard, you just outed yourself as Kremlin troll. LA and SanFan are not states methed up Ruzztard.

An American would know this. Only those with sexual attraction to their sister or mother would call themselves a "pilgrim".

Those leaving are morons like you fallowing Cali's meth and frantyenal crackdown, their moving to red states because easier to them in shithole rural drug towns.

Democrat run states and cities are cleaner with less crime, even the smallest red state towns are drugged up shitholes filled with homeless on the government dollar and always high on hard drugs. Mississippi, Louisiana, and Alabama are America’s crime filled white ghettos with high murder rates and drug use. Even when Democrat run cities are removed from the numbers.

You repeat 4chan slogans as fact because you have the IQ of a shit throwing chimp who works in Moscow.

60 minutes was not in favor of this. It was the President of CBS and that is why Bill Owens Executive Producer of 60 Minutes left because he would not be allowed to make independent decisions about the content. Shari Redstone of Paramount is the bad guy who caved to this...

I am a USA citizen born here 60 years ago. The rot in this country that has engulfed about half the population who voted for trump & all those who voted maga gop’s to congress is a reflection of the people that has always bubbled under surface. It just needed trump & maga to release it. The rot is spreading and I have no sympathy for anyone who voted for trump & maga. A horrible reckoning is coming for this country and maga deserves all the pain, suffering & death it’s going to get. I’ll be collateral damage as a never-trumper. Don’t care anymore. I’ve abandoned hope of recovery for this sick & broken country.

I hear ya and feel your pain! I've got a few more years under my belt. Can you imagine how different this country would have been if Supreme Court would have given the election to Gore instead of Bush. That election was a perfect example what 3rd party elections do. Nader being an ecologist with his VW bug stole votes that would have most likely went to Gore allowing the showdown with SCOTUS to get involved. Gore would have started a "green" project then and the world would be so much different. Instead we got Bush that got us into 2 wars that last forever. Obama bailed us out of the financial collapse that Bush left us with, but the majority didn't want a woman president so we got Trump, twice!

It was all about greed and quid pro quo. Trump digs up stuff to use against people. Years ago, no one would have noticed or cared about the 60 Minutes interview. Trump claimed to be the victim here, as always. Good grief! He already won the election. Too much is never enough. For someone who supports banning books and closing education, the likelihood of a presidential library is nil. Trump is a convicted felon, and he is whining about an interview. The case should have been thrown out. Canceling my Paramount when I am done with this post.

The BBB should be dead. Murkowski threw away her McCain moment.

Money for USAID is spent in the US. Trump wants manufacturing back in America, which will never happen. We have moved on. Our economy is service and intellectually based. This hurts the farmers and producers of other products. Life-sustaining food is sitting in warehouses. Trump and Elon - the wealthiest man in the world - are killing the most vulnerable people in the world.

These Americans - those who voted for Trump and for his BBB, those who are in the regime, and those who enable him (including his family) all have blood on their hands. They are responsible for the death of millions of people. Like the enablers and participants of the Third Reich, they may eventually be held accountable, or not. We need to call them what they are: cruel Murderers.

I agree. They do not care. They are like the regime and enablers of the Third Reich, none of whom expressed remorse, some of whom were hung after Nuremberg, some of whom killed themselves, some of whom were incarcerated, and some of whom moved to other countries (including the US). IF there is ever any accountability here in the US (and I highly doubt it), I am sure the cruel murderers would similarly be dispersed and none would express remorse. I guess that is why the concept of heaven and hell exists: To rationalize the injustices on earth in the expectation that justice will be allotted in a different universe.
