Since it's come up...

Could we get at least one line of commentary per video, please? Here and in General, both.

I have to agree.  I, too, don't have the time to go through 40+ minutes of videos at a shot on the basis of the four or five words that appear at the top of each one.

Furious FOX host loses it on Trump after he announces he's taking Hydroxychloroquine

Yes, a FOX news anchor felt the need to explicitly state that many tests disproved the idea that Hydroxychloroquine helped against Covid19
RE: Politics video madness
No no, I feel the same myself. A lot of these I'm not bothering to watch mainly because 1) not enough time in the day, 2) very little context given, and 3) little actual discussion.

President Trump: "We don't want anyone to do mail-in ballots. Now if somebody has to mail it in because they're sick or, by the way, because they live in the White House and they have to vote in Florida and they won't be in Florida, if there's a reason for it, that's okay."

“We can never undo what we have done. We can never go back in time. We write history with our decisions and our actions. But we also write history with our responses to those actions. We can leave the pain and the damage in our wake, unattended, or we can do the work of acknowledging and fixing, to whatever extent possible, the harm that we have caused.”

RE: Politics video madness
Well, that's pretty standard Republican tactics. I'm surprised he left 'if there's a reason for it' open.

Because, you know, 'pandemic' is a pretty good reason.
RE: Politics video madness
One does wonder if his opposition to mail-in ballots includes service members on deployment.

Cops marching in full bodyarmour behind a Humvee. They actually say "Light 'em up" like they think they're in fucking Baghdad or something, pretending to be soldiers occupying the shit out of a place.

I'd imagine actual soldiers would be a little less cavalier.

I love the smell of rotaries in the morning. You know one time, I got to work early, before the rush hour. I walked through the empty carpark, I didn't see one bloody Prius or Golf. And that smell, you know that gasoline smell, the whole carpark, smelled like.... ....speed.

One day they're going to ban them.

Most presidents age rather quickly as a result of the pressures of the job.

Trump, rather tellingly, has not.

Legal Eagle's analysis on the George Floyd murder, what charges may apply and why, and why a bystander could not intervene beyond filming what was happening, and what charges may fall on the other officers on the scene:

Warning: may include graphic images.

This came up in my Youtube recommendations. It's from Australia, but damned if it does not apply to the US too:
