The real reason why Noida anchors and liberals are breathlessly lashing out at Congress over Amethi and Rae Bareilly is because extensive programming and articles had been prepared in advance for a high profile battle in Amethi. High profile battles are easy to cover- he said,…

Sleepless, stumbled upon The Cut review, & I think it's an exposition of what's an American epidemic: the belief America is the centre of the🌎& that the individual is the centre of all discourse. I would have thought those women were teens, what's with being so infantile at 26?
