We've started watching a 2-episode documentary called "The Dark Money Game" on HBO https://www.hbo.com/the-dark-money-game . We cut the cord years ago, but subscribed to HBO for a month to watch this. We're only an hour in on the first hour of the 2-hour first episode. Quite interesting. Among other things, I'd never heard of a 501(c)(4)

"We must accept finite disappointment, but never lose infinite hope." ~Dr Martin Luther King Jr.

Please note that several "regulars" show up most weeks, and therefore do not RSVP. Don't worry if you are new and only see a few RSVPs if you look at Meetup :) Anyone is welcome (as long as they are civil), and we talk about pretty much ANYthing -- some of which is political and plenty that is just life in general :)

See ya'll Wednesday, 6:30pm onwards, at The Studio Public House.
