Wednesday Stuff


Rachel Maddow tells us more on what I guess you could call The Madness Of King Donald, in which he’s raging with disgraced NatSec operative Michael Flynn about using the military to invalidate the election, issuing what appears to be a virtually unending stream of pardons coming from An Oval Office...and oh yeah, totally botching the response to the deadly COVID pandemic raging out of control (and the attendant economic misery)...



...and speaking of pardons, I’d like for you to take a look at this face (sorry to be "Danny Downer," but I have to say this).

In this season in which many of us anticipate and celebrate the birth of a particular child, I think it’s safe to say that this little boy could be pretty much from “anytown USA.”

Well, he isn’t (or wasn’t, more precisely). He was from Baghdad, Iraq.

His name is Ali Kinani. He was sitting in the back of his father’s SUV with his 2 cousins when Blackwater security guards opened fire on the vehicle and riddled it with bullets, killing Kinani (I’ll leave the graphic details up to you, dear reader – you can read more about what happened from here). And no, there were no weapons in the vehicle.

The four Blackwater guards are Nicholas Slatten, Dustin L. Heard, Evan S. Liberty (seriously), and Paul A. Slough. And yesterday Our Treasonous, Tiny-Handed Russian Operative of a *president pardoned all four of them.

Merry fucking Christmas!

...and turning to last month’s elections, David Doel tells us that it looks like Lou Dobbs and Maria Bartiromo “got the memo,” as did “Dr.” Gorka here, on the Smartmatic voting machines; basically, they all received cease and desist orders to stop lying about alleged purposeful malfunctions in favor of Biden (actually, though, on this subject, I think we need to look at the Election System and Software machines based on this)...



...and returning to the Georgia special elections, I apologize for taking awhile to get around to this great Jon Ossoff clip...



...and this spot-on new Really American ad tells us more on how Kelly Loeffler and David Perdue are cleaning up while Georgians suffer, including businesses in that state that desperately need help (in response, to help Jon Ossoff and Raphael Warnock, click here)...



...and we're winding down with the seasonal selections - here are four more.
