The Loyal Opposition S03 E12

Good afternoon, Sumner County. Welcome to another episode of The Loyal

Opposition, a show based on the American ideal that nations like ours benefit

when government reflects a diversity of voices and makes space for dissent.

That is why we're here. To air the voice of descent to the super majority's

policies and ideas.

I am your host, Len Assante. We've got not one but two guests this afternoon

and. We're gonna get started with Ms. Bonnie in just a minute. I wanna make a

couple of announcements first because if I don't make them at the top of the

hour, I'll never ever make them and then I'll forget.

Sumner County Democratic Party has got a couple of things going on. Some of

y'all might. Be interested in knowing about. Tomorrow is their monthly pints

with progressives. That is Thursday, April 17th, six o'clock at Casa Roja in

Gallatin. That's right off the square in downtown Gallatin. They've got the

whole upstairs reserved [00:01:00] just for them.

So come on out, have a margarita, have some tacos, have some chips have some

fun. Right? That's pine with progressives on, the another Democrat thing they've

got, they've started a book club. How about that, Bonnie? That's nice. They've

got a book club now, they call it. Nevertheless, we read very good, very good.

And that will meet monthly at the party headquarters in Gallatin from six 30 to

eight. And the book this month is an interesting book called On Disinformation,

how to Fight for Truth and Protect Democracy. The author's name is Lee

McIntyre. It's a short book. It's less than a hundred pages long.

So if you are interested in joining the club come on down and each month they

will pick a new book. And you'll have a month to read it. So that is. Tuesday,

April 22nd at six 30 at the headquarters on Main Street in Gallatin, Tennessee.

So is [00:02:00] the book available at Amazon and online? The book is

available on Amazon.

I checked out it's like $11. It's a small and inexpensive book. And you can,

purchase the paper copy, or if you're into reading it on the Kindle, they have the

Kindle version as well. Okay. So you can download it onto your device, which

some people like to do. I ask my students about, because, they grew up in this

digital world, and I asked them, I said, do you prefer to read books the old

fashioned way or do you prefer to read them on your device, on your Kindle or

your reader, or your tablet or your phone? And believe it or not. Most
