Tuesday Stuff


Well, it seems the “holy grail,” if you will, for the wingnuts is within grasp unfortunately, and that is to overturn Roe v. Wade based on a Mississippi test case the High Court of Hangin’ Judge JR has agreed to hear (including Amy Coney Island Baby Barrett); Rachel Maddow speaks with Nancy Northrup, president and CEO of the Center for Reproductive Rights...I hope all of you squishy Dems and independent voters who cast their ballots for Repugs are happy now, because this is what you’ve wrought, though many others are to blame also (I've since seen a comment online that the cabal of the Christian Handmaiden, "I Like Beer" Brett and Gorsuch also have their eyes on Griswold, which also figures unfortunately - I've never known wingnuts to merely settle for half a proverbial loaf)...



...and John and Francesca of The Damage Report tell us about Palestinian deaths skyrocketing as a result of the conflict with the Israelis – no goddamn excuse in the world why this shouldn’t be currently undergoing some kind of international peacekeeping intervention...



...and Brian Tyler Cohen tells us about U.S. House Dem Eric Swalwell speaking with Jim Acosta of CNN about Swalwell pushing back on an idiot aide to that utter loon Marjorie Taylor Greene on the subject of wearing a mask...



...and speaking of Greene, Farron Cousins tells us that she apparently committed tax fraud by claiming 2 residences on a homestead exemption instead of the 1 allowed by law – womp womp...



...and David Doel tells us that a guy accused of killing his wife signed her ballot for Mango Mussolini in the 2020 election – if he’s found guilty, he should be made to watch a seemingly endless loop of Biden speaking as president as the sentence against the guy is carried out...



...and this clip from More Perfect Union tells us about the Heritage Foundation working in secret with Repugs on voter suppression bills (“so [they] have that grass roots, from-the-bottom-up type of vibe,” huh? Utterly disgusting, deceitful wingnut harpie...and of course, this cretin is involved also)...



Update: Apparently this woman's name is Jessica Anderson (here), and she and Heritage Action may have violated House ethics rules...nicely done.

...and Robert Reich tells us about getting rid of the stepped-up basis rule loophole (wonky stuff I know, but important)...



...and RIP Pervis Staples.
