...and RIP Daniel Ellsberg, who brought down political and media hellfire by making public the “Pentagon Papers” about our prosecution of the Vietnam War way back when...maybe the most notable of a long line of whistleblowers who courageously tried to keep our country from descending into something approximating corporate fascism (here and here...CBS news with Cronkite is from ’71, with a bit of snark from correspondent Bruce Morton, which I think is fine)...
...and speaking of snark, Emma along with the TMR crew tells us that Glenn Grothman is at it again, sounding off about the alleged commie liberal socialist plot against gas stoves (and “limousine liberals”? That’s at least a 30-year-old catchphrase, dude...you need to seriously update your wingnut-ese...and OF COOUURRRSE Grothman has to attack those “low income” poors also, and gets in the typical white boomer suburban dig at Section 8 housing...and yeah, what Emma sez; NSFW/H)...
...and David Doel tells us that the UK’s Daily Mail has apparently outdone itself with this BS about the supposed negative effects of WFH...yeah, the problems of “Anna” have more to do with our overall lifestyle than whether or not you’re actually in a physical office (sitting in traffic, burning gas that turns into CO2 into our atmosphere contributing to climate change, etc.)...
...and this gives us more background on the origins of today’s Juneteenth holiday...
...and in his quest to avoid anything whatsoever that has to do with passing actual legislation that makes a difference in people’s lives, apparently “Cancun” Cruz has picked a fight with Pat Benatar as noted here – how typically ridiculous.
