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 cheer the latest announcement from Sen. Joe Manchin that he will not support the left’s climate agenda or tax increases in the latest attempt to revive what’s left of the Build Back Better agenda. They also dig into reports that text messages from Secret Service devices are missing from January 5-6, 2021, and that is sparking fierce condemnation from all political angles. And they hammer Arizona Rep. Ruben Gallegos for saying a congressional candidate in his state is not an authentic Latina because she took her husband’s last name.

Here I’m trying to think better of this podcast — and then I hear a misleading commercial by Big Tech in opposition to a bipartisan Senate bill to curb monopolistic abuses.
Greg and Jim should be ashamed of themselves.
Hmmm.
Are you sure that Democrats would be for it, if it actually curbed monopolistic abuses?
Democrats are supposed to be for restraining corporate monopolies, but we don’t know how many will be bought off. For one thing, Chuck Schumer is still uncommitted, last I heard.
Conservative commentators I trust say this is the only chance to do anything, because with the Republicans in power in the Senate the Dems won’t cooperate with a Republican bill.
The Democrats usually seem to be only worried if the WRONG monopolists are in control.
