These interviews with Mr. Potter are fascinating. Missed them when they first came out.
Correction…CCC is the abbreviation for The Civilian Conservation Corps (the word conservative is not in there).
youtube algorithm makes it hard to find the rest of this video segments. WTF!!!
This comment is now almost two days late, it now being 1:13 a.m. on Sunday, May 12th, but this 3rd part of the 7-part series is very good. I appreciated parts 1 and 2 so hope the rest will also be good. I don't know what to say to Wendell, but " Thank you " certainly comes to mind. So far, good! I appreciate the frank talk. And keep up the good work TRNN. You've been doing it for many years, evidently anyway, for I hadn't checked for plenty of years and only find the channel to be as good as I had previously known it to be. That's quite steadfast.
Great segment RNN! I am also proud to say I cast my first-ever vote for Sen George McGovern and owned a "Lick Dick in '72" campaign button.
Shitty medicine has no political affiliation.
Interesting learn abput you life. _ preaching to the chior here hopfully its not just about book sales but getting the word out to the Republican in Tennessee letters to editors about the workings of insurance companies and Republicans lobbist a simple but to the point artical so people can understand
@therealnews, where the fuck are the other parts
why is 3/7 the only part I can find?
Great series; Potter is terrific. Jay, too, but he's getting increasingly bipolar about his facial hair. On, off, on, off… 🙂 More seriously, Potter is an impressive guy; that's real ethics in action: he sold out, came to, admits and owns it without being dramatic about it. Great.
Interesting. Looking forward to the next one.
We need more insider-whistleblowers.
