Saturday Stuff


OK, I’m back to try and get this thing going again – had a wonderful week in Bernie Sanders-land…maybe not quite our “blue state paradise,” but pretty darn close.

It seems like this was the main highlight of the week that was, as somebody once said, and that was the testimony of Bill Taylor about the Gropenfuhrer and the Ukraine quid pro quo garbage, as recounted here by Nicolle Wallace of MSNBC (kind of maddening to hear Andy Levin, but to his credit, he’s being true to the process you might say – I believe him when he says this will all be public knowledge eventually)…



…and Brian Tyler Cohen tells us about Matt Gaetz leading his band of Repug clowns in the House to disrupt the SCIF hearing with Laura Cooper, which was a direct result of Taylor’s blistering testimony as Cohen correctly notes…



…and Robert Reich gives us more on the Gropenfuhrer’s emoluments mess, which is a perfectly apt description…



…and yeah, I think this is a pretty spot-on song parody given all of this…



…and Michael Brooks and the crew from The Majority Report minus Sam tell us about the Oakland cops attacking protesting teachers, which has fit their fascist profile for some time now on this and other related matters – on a bit of a side note, as mentioned at the end of the video, it seems like since Elizabeth Warren has risen in the polls the way she has, her policies are going to be scrutinized a little more closely, and that’s a good thing, but I just hope we maintain a sense of perspective about it, that’s all…



...and I might as well return with a great new tune, so here it is.
