    Cue "Twilight Zone" music: JUST last night, I noticed that it had been months since I'd heard a musical evisceration from this talented twosome. Great rhyming, great performance, great stiletto attack of the 1/6 idiots.

    Beautiful voice and talent at the service of Democracy. In the mist of so much misinformation spreaded by the Trumpists...those songs are true patriotism in action... We realized that the power of the people in a Democracy in a treasure. You give us hope and understanding that Americans are awakened . ❤
