Friday Stuff


David Pakman tells us that Trump border czar Tom Homan may be getting ready to try and deploy red state national guard units to blue states to try and get rid of immigrants and others apparently deemed to be undesirable in order to manufacture a crisis...as bad as this is, and it is that, I can definitely get behind Pakman’s recommendations at the end of this clip (once again, heckuva job, all you numbskulls who decided to return Bronzer Beelzebub to power because of paying a few cents extra for stuff at the supermarket and OMIGOD THE SCARY BROWN PEOPLE INVADING OUR BORDER!!!...which, by the way, isn't freaking "open")...



...and John and Francesca of The Damage Report bring us the news that Repug U.S. Sen. Mike Rounds very correctly mentioned the whole “advice and consent” thing concerning the nom of Kash Patel to run the FBI (and yeah, Patel isn’t in the cult, having written a damn KIDS BOOK celebrating Mango Mussolini...not much he isn’t), so OF COURSE MAGA has to attack Rounds, who is a doctrinaire conservative of course...a bit of a scary “truth bomb” from Francesca about going after those deemed to be “political dissidents,” but I think she’s completely right (which is horrifying I know)...



...and I honestly don’t know who this gentleman is, but I think he gives us an appropriate response to our would-be authoritarian...our African American brothers and sisters might say at times like these to “stay woke,” and I think that advice would serve us all...

...and Ben Meiselas of the Meidas Touch Network brings a clip of Dem U.S, House rep Jared Moskowitz laying into the Repug idiots running the House for putting up a tweet that Dem reps were absent from a hearing on our Afghanistan withdrawal, which was a typical lie...also, Rep Gregory Meeks brings some reality to the discussion about our Afghan exit, and kudos to Dem Rep. Gerry Connolly for putting the ruinous Doha agreement with the Taliban in the proper context (an agreement reached by Trump without the participation of the government in Afghanistan, as Connolly noted)...I also didn’t know that MAGA Mike Johnson was dragging his feet on Biden’s supplemental appropriation request for more aid for the victims of Hurricanes Helene and Milton, but yeah, that isn’t surprising either, and yeah, leave it to the incredibly misnamed Bob Good to piss all over the funding request to help these people in need (invoking “middle America” and “coastal elites”? And this guy is “proud” of refusing to do his job? What a POS! And yeah, this “DOGE” committee run by Marjorie Train Wreck Greene will be a joke, but there should be no question about Dems participating on it...kind of comes with the job description, don’t you think? And yes, #45/47 respects our military...sure he does)...



...and yep, you guessed it - time for more seasonal tunes.
