Ricochet is the best place on the internet to discuss the issues of the day, either through commenting on posts or writing your own for our active and dynamic community in a fully moderated environment. In addition, the Ricochet Audio Network offers over 50 original podcasts with new episodes released every day.
Join Jim and Greg as they unload on New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio for his horrific lack of leadership that paved the way to another night of looting and destruction in his city and his massive double standard on who can gather in public. They also react to the Democrats in Fairfax County, Virginia, retweeting a message saying “riots are an integral part of this country’s march toward progress.” And Jim has a surprising reaction as Clinton White House spokesman Joe Lockhart suggests the Minnesota Vikings should sign Colin Kaepernick as a response to the death of George Floyd.

Yes, let the Vikings do some expensive virtue signalling.
Minnesota went through their Chris Kluwe Social Justice Warrior period in the 2009-2014 period. Did not go well for either side, but you can be sure the Vikings aren’t going to court any woke players anytime soon
Local political parties, even for large counties, are mostly run by volunteers. I would expect the vice chairman for communications (or whatever the title is) to be a volunteer. If they really gave the twitter password to some 18 year old intern, that would be foolish. But I wonder what position this volunteer had.
