Tuesday Stuff

(From here, and a typical wingnut response is here)...

We know K.O. has no trouble bringing the fire, as it were, in these commentaries, but I honestly believe there is some genuine sadness in what he says here, and of course I think he’s right.

There were a lot of reasons why we’re currently stuck with the petulant fraud of a pretender at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue, and we’ve rehashed them more than a few times already. But more than anyone else, the boomers (and that would include Olbermann and your humble narrator) have our metaphorical fingerprints all over this. And even though I fought this development as hard as I could, I also know that I’m partly responsible…



Update: And, inevitably perhaps, it has come to this.

...and as you might have guessed, Trump's ban wouldn't have done a damn thing about this (actually, you could argue that #45 maybe encouraged this behavior indirectly? - and uh, yep)...



Update: As an entity (with the notable exception of Shep Smith), that network is nothing but utterly unrepentant scum (here).

…and Chris Hayes talks to Sen. Sherrod Brown about the Dems filibustering Generalissimo Trump’s SCOTUS nominee (and by the way, I personally don’t have a problem revisiting the Merrick Garland nomination, even though it won’t happen of course...again, not a crime to be rich, but it's just a matter of what you do with it)…



…and given the recent firings, including this (perhaps the ONLY thing that the Gropenfuhrer can actually do well), isn't this interesting, particularly given the person asking the question...


…and in a pretty significant Sessions-related development, good for “Di-Fi” here



…and thanks to our friends “across the pond” for this – makes me recall this tune.
