Friday Stuff


Brian Tyler Cohen and More Perfect Union bring us the wingnut effort to get RFK Jr. on the ballot in all 50 states along with D.C., noting that the strategy isn’t to get the Kennedy scion elected (which won’t happen), but to help #45 get back to power, God forbid...the segment also tells us who was behind that ridiculous Super Bowl ad for RFK Jr. echoing JFK, some outfit called “American Values 2024”...and yeah, the Mellon family (in the person of Timothy) is right smack dab in the middle of this as you might expect, along with other deep-pocketed plutocratic a-holes...



Update 3/30/24: Sounds like Jr.'s running mate is at least as big of a nutjob as he is (here).

...and David Pakman informs us that Trumpsist lawyer John Eastman has been disbarred (according to a judge) for his efforts to overthrow the 2020 presidential election...good...



...and when it comes to wingnut bottom feeders, Rocky Mountain Gun Owners have to be pretty high on the list for harassing Colorado state senator Tom Sullivan, who lost his son in the Aurora mass shooting, as Kyle Clark explains...



...and I know I already touched on Marjorie Train Wreck Greene’s motion to vacate Repug U.S. House Speaker “MAGA Mike” Johnson, but this clip from Mike Figueredo takes a look at the reaction from other politicos and pundits to all of this, including the inaptly-named Bob Good as well as Clay Higgins, along with Baby Newton Leroy Gingrich...that said, I have to admit that I didn’t think much of Figueredo’s “joke” at the end, particularly on Good Friday...and we should get this guy on the record about this insanity (and to do something about Bri-Fi, click here)...



...and Thom Hartmann informs us that it looks like the effort to ban mifepristone mail deliveries under the thoroughly odious Comstock Act will very well likely fail at the hands of the High Court of Hangin’ Judge JR, though, as we know, those who would seek to steal everything from us and grind us under their heel have plenty of resources to keep trying over and over, which means we need to keep fighting them over and over, especially since “Strip Search Sammy” and Almost Silent Clarence Thomas were as receptive as you might expect to this barbarous insanity (more here)...



...and if you’re looking for an upbeat, newer tune to start your weekend, then you’ve come to the right place.
