I do miss Scott Simoms' voice on Saturday morning, but I find I do not miss most of NPRs voices.

This feels sad to me, I was a very long term supporter.

What they are normalizing is that Jack Smith and Juan Merchan and Kamala Harris are “the bad guys” and that Donald tRump and his criminal cabal are “the good guys”. I will have none of that shit.
