What Now? A Conversation with Marc Elias

Well. It happened. He’s been inaugurated. He’s pardoned the insurrectionists. He’s starting his round ups and Elon gave, not one but two, stiff arm salutes. Now what?

The mainstream media is a joke. They’re already telling us we didn’t see Elon do what he did. Now, more than ever, we need to support those doing independent work and bringing the truth when it’s harder and harder to find. Help people like me be a counterweight to the lies and propaganda.

THANK YOU to today’s sponsors!

I think the real turning point was how many people didn't bother to vote AT ALL.

[gtalbot]

I agree with Marc. Nobody should read or watch any of the legacy media.

[Threeve]

I think we’ve learned very quickly and very rapidly that legacy media in this country is utterly worthless.

[jdk]

I didn’t/couldn’t watch any of it. It was demoralizing, and disgusting to say the least. I’m ashamed to be an American at this time.

[hopepeace]

I have such respect for Marc Elias, we are so fortunate to have someone who is so dedicated, courageous and smart fighting for Democrats and democracy. Thanks for another good conversation Leigh.

I live right next to the Mexican Border now because I trust these Mexican people a lot more than most Americans, now.

[LisaB-th]

Without a forensic audit, how can one state definitively that votes were accurately tabulated?

[johnlindblom]

I didn't watch either. I walked my dog and went to a MLKjr rally and march.

[marksnyder]

Seems like we’ve went from reasonably sane to insane.

[ScorpioGoddess-]

I agree that we do need an opposition, a very, very powerful, and true opposition that will uphold the constitution work for the everyday working and poor people and move us forward.

[lbw]

He’s the face and the puppet of their cause. So how do you stop the puppeteer? Is the puppeteer the heritage foundation?

[lamiagumbo]

Make it a point to learn how federal/state/local government work. Understand that local/state government is going to be vital in the coming years. Keep up to date on your voting registration, vote in EVERY election no matter how local. Attend your city meetings and do not be afraid to call your representatives and senators. Get involved and stay involved and get others involved. Pass it on

[bigtone]

I disagree with Marc Elias regarding the election being secure but other than that, Terrific show!!👌💯

[lisam]

Let’s financially support Marc and his works!! 😊

[BossLy]

I’m depending on you and other private journalists for my news. I will not be watching anything that has his face or voice on it.

[davidb]

People who I used to think were my Friends I would not trust any farther than I can spit, now.

[johnnieworms]

I think this election was called way too quickly. I've never seen that before...

[JTSA]

Sorry, Leigh - senior disabled couple. Too hard to watch. Too bummed.

[ShutupSharon]

He cheated. I don't know how, but he cheated. He implied elon spent a month in Pennsylvania and he was the reason he won that state. That sounds fishy too.

[rapidraga]

The only thing I don't agree with is him saying the elections were fair. They were not. Orangeman as much as admitted it publicly a day ago.
