Thursday Stuff


I know it’s not exactly an original observation to say that we’ve been in 25th Amendment territory for a little while now with Generalissimo Trump, but I would say that the events of the last day or so in particular have put a bit of an exclamation point on that…of course, don’t expect this scandalous cadre of thoroughly compromised lickspittles running our executive and legislative branches of government to do much of anything about it; if we needed more of a reminder about the importance of the November election, I would say this is it (NSFW mainly at the very end)…



…and I like Jimmy Kimmel’s theory about the author of the New York Times Op-Ed – sure would fit…



…and Cenk and Ana of TYT give Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh the treatment he deserves, but Jeff Flake to me has no guts whatsoever – he gets zero points from yours truly…



…and Farron Cousins tells us more idiocy (to say nothing of fraud) involving Repug U.S. House Rep John Culberson of TX, who blames climate change for his own corruption (the trifecta of “duuh,” apparently)…



…and RIP Burt Reynolds – I always thought this award was thoroughly deserved for “Boogie Nights”…no idea what his politics were, if he had any, and I don’t care (“The old Stradivarius plays better than the new ones.”…nice touch - and I thought this was a nice tribute)…



…and I don’t think it’s time for torches and pitchforks yet, but what do you say to a little peaceful civic disorder?
