What you may have missed on PDR last week.
Following is our end-of-the-week summary of all the topics covered on our Politics Done Right on KPFT 90.1 FM program, which is also streamed on Facebook Live, YouTube Live, Twitter, and Twitch.
IMPORTANT NOTICE:
The election is here, and people are already voting. This is the time when we must reach out to our people and get them to make an educated vote in their interest. The Right-Wing media is well-funded to mislead Americans, and the mainstream media is well-funded by honest and corrupt political campaigns alike. You fund the independent media directly, and our loyalty to truth and informed facts is with you. We are well behind in funding this most important source. We need hundreds more paid subscribers. Would you become one today? It is less than a cup of coffee. Let us all make a difference.
