Maybe I've missed it, but where are the stories on cable news about all the artists

baling on trump's 250th Anniversary celebration? I haven't seen one. Granted, it's not the most important story out there, but it IS a story. It's also a ratings grabber as it's the kind of thing that viewers of both parties are interested in. So why ignore it?

It's an embarrassing story for trump, not the end of the world. But if this were happening to Joe Biden, well, forgive me if I think it would be handled differently.

shithole and comrades are requiring military soldiers that qualify "the look (masculine and white)" to attend the birthday bash, but they would have to pay their own way

I don't think many will be there except for the Fetterman, republican congress and republican politicians from across the country and it wouldn't surprise about those 6 asshole from the US SC coming as well.

Taxpayers are funding it as well as the 250th very sad event(

I was 4 when the bicentennial happened so barely remember it. I'd been looking forward to this most of my life. That was ruined Nov '24.

That's how the Rs and corporate media have disarmed Dems and kept them from using one of their greatest strengths. I hope Dems see that and use their celebrity allies in the midterms. If the Rs whine, it;s because they're jealous.

Several times, in fact. I've been out and about today and listen to Sirius XM.
