She needs to listen to some Lyle Lovett:
Leave it to a guy who makes a miserable excuse for a US Congressman to try and identify who would make a good Congressional Intern. Given that Internships often lead to careers in politics, this would surely be a death knell for Democracy.

Alita was beautiful work. Yes, most viewers were slightly unnerved by the big eyes - but the whole point of the film was that even Alita herself wasn’t certain she was a real person. If you want creepy big eyes, watch the midwife/doctor in the opening of JJ Abrams’ Star Trek. Her eye sockets don’t quite match the…

“My History Can Beat Up Your Politics” The only political podcast I’ve been able to listen to for past five years. He manages to remains impartial, yet constantly proves that there is almost no political event in the news today that has never happened before.
