I thought this was a pretty decent partial list of the lies from J.D. Vance in last Tuesday’s VP debate from Joy Reid; yeah, Couch Boy does indeed have his whole act patented where he sounds intelligent and doesn’t provide much fodder for his opponent, but you indeed have to dig through what the Repug U.S. Senator from Ohio is saying to find out what a brazen con man he truly is (here)...
...and Farron Cousins tells us about Never Trumper Charlie Sykes pointing out that the Gropenfuhrer’s cognitive decline is getting worse...and yeah, it‘s scary to contemplate that people in this country know they’re being lied to and don’t care; I can assure you that I will NEVER tolerate someone lying to me on an issue, regardless of what political party they represent...clip ends at about 4:38 without the ad...
...and also pertaining to Biden’s ruinous predecessor in An Oval Office, New York Times reporter Michael B. Schmidt discusses how Bronzer Beelzebub wanted to make himself a prosecutor of sorts to go after his critics in 2018, but apparently was stopped by John Kelly and Don McGahn, fortunately (if, God forbid, #45 gets another crack at this, he won’t be told No this time, people, and as Schmidt points out, #45 did indeed go after Schmidt’s phone records as well as those of other reporters)...
...and David Pakman lets us know that Cantaloupe Capone is big mad that Biden delivered hurricane aid to red states (as usual, every accusation from the “R” party is a confession)...and Big Stupid Head Matt Gaetz took a break from trying to solicit sex from teenage girls (allegedly!) so he could vote against FEMA aid to Flori-DUUH! before Hurricane Helene struck...just say “oops” and get out, OK?...I think Pakman needs to do something about his mic...
...and this report from More Perfect Union lets us know about Google and Meta (Facebook) buying up local news organizations and siphoning off billions in ad revenue from these smaller operations...didn’t know how important ad exchanges are to the entire profit-making equation for newspapers and smaller publishers...interesting that Australia came up with a strategy around what Google and Meta are doing (and more on Google’s tactics against the CJPA is here)...as far as I’m concerned, we’re going to have to get serious in this country when it comes to forming some kind of a public-private partnership to fund local news orgs so they can keep people and communities informed (and get through some lean periods of declining ad revenue), but I definitely don’t see enough of an appetite for that, unfortunately...
...and happy 45th birthday to drummer Nate Wood of The Calling.
