David Doel tells us all about those grandparents supposedly posing such a mortal threat as they protested in front of Sh*tty Bank HQ in NYC, given that that organization has so effectively bankrolled dirty energy companies contributing to the climate crisis...yes, I know the cops had to arrest the 29 demonstrators, but it’s still an utterly pathetic gesture (on the part of the cops, I mean)...
...and VoteVets have been hitting it out of the park, you might say, in their ads recently against Our Treasonous Orange Pestilence, and they really blasted #45 once again to their credit over the disgusting mess at Arlington, as David Shuster tells us (and I think the ads from The Lincoln Project are well done, but sometimes too cute for their own good...just sayin’)...
...and I thought this was a good clip from Bernie Sanders, targeted primarily for the up-and-coming (and actually, already here) next generation of voters; would that more folks affiliated with team “D” would follow suit (expanding Medicare and Social Security, allowing Medicare to cover dental and vision, raising taxes on corporations, and getting damn dirty money out of politics by passing a law overturning Citizens United once and for all)...
....and Yasmin Khan brings us a bit of a cheeky campaign ad from Trisha Calvarese, running against Bo-Bo Boebert in CO-04 (or was it 03? Oh, riiight...it’s 04); I don’t know what’s going on in that race, but Calvarese is going to have to find some way to reach the “fundie” nut jobs who are conditioned to pull the “R” lever in the voting booth, even if it’s for the vaping Beetlejuice “queen”...and I don’t understand why Khan mentioned Reese Witherspoon, but I’ll admit that I could be missing something there...
...and every time I think the “land of the yellow rose” can’t get MORE despicable, they manage to prove me wrong; looks like DA Ken Paxton carried out a raid against individuals trying to register people to vote, mainly Latino (I don’t care if Paxton was found not to be liable by that kangaroo court...he’s as worthless a POS as Abbott and Cruz, maybe more so) as Marc Elias (with Brian Tyler Cohen) says...and yeah, this has a parallel to what happened under #DeathSantis in Flori-DUUUH! with entrapping voters...and I completely believe that Paxton, Abbott and the rest of that wretched “R” team in that state were envious of voter purging efforts elsewhere as Elias says, and they wanted to get in on the “fun”...
...and RIP country music session guitarist Pete Wade, who sometimes crossed over to other genres, as he did many years ago on this tune from Joan Baez’s folk record “One Day At A Time” (I personally liked this version of the song from Woodstock better; the studio version was recorded later).
