Monday Stuff


Farron Cousins of Ring of Fire informs us that Jim Farley, Ford CEO, said in a recent interview that Trump’s tariffs could destroy the auto industry, which I suppose is realizing the Repug Party dream of former presidential candidate Willard Mitt Romney (here)...for #47, though, creating confusion is the point, facts and consequences be damned...”oh, maybe we’ll pause the tariffs with Canada for a week or two, but full steam ahead on tariffs with Mexico, and we’ll enact the China tariffs on the third Tuesday of the month,” etc...this is what you voted for, all of you Trumpers out there and anyone who wouldn’t support Harris/Walz...



...and Jesse Dollemore tells us about Our Treasonous Orange Pestilence following the Hitler playbook in remarks that could be a pretext to possibly invading Canada...yep, horrific as this is, it all has to be giving Vlad The Butcher an excuse for an ear-to-ear grin, tragically (and again, as somebody pointed out, this is all noise to hide what DOGE is doing to our government, but it’s still worrying as hell)...the sentence where Jesse uses NSFW/H language is one that I agree with 150 percent...and yeah, “Governor” Trudeau – we already knew that #47 was a piece of sh*t, and this just gives that more emphasis...”a lotta ships out there”...what a f*cking moron!...



...and speaking of foreign nations, Yasmin Khan of Rebel HQ tells us about Denmark trolling Mango Mussolini with a buyout offer for California, complete with quotes about purchasing the Golden Gate state from Lars Ulrich of Metallica and children’s author Hans Christian Andersen (and yes, I know the latter is deceased)...



...and Chris Hayes tells us the story of President Musk and his henchman trying to take $80 million in FEMA funds from NYC – actually, the guilty party is DHS Secretary Kristi (“Unsafe At Any Speed”) Noem...I’m sure it will come as absolutely no surprise that, as Hayes points out, the funds were appropriated properly through an act of Congress signed into law by President Biden, and most definitely the migrants who benefit from that are here legally and aren’t living in luxury high-rise apartments or whatever (and yeah, in “luxury” for $12.50 a night, and in Manhattan no less...and this nonsense move caused a $15 K overdraft fee for NYC on top of all of the other idiocy)...Hayes speaks with NYC controller Brad Lander about this mess...



...and in yet another ad that the beyond clueless DNC should be making, The Lincoln Project lets us know, among other things, that every state/commonwealth in this country has laws about protecting your online data, even if our ruling cabal and grifters and frauds refuses to acknowledge that...sure would be nice to nail King Elon’s wretched ass for poking around sensitive private data and stick him in the slam for all of his DOGE bullsh*t...



...and kudos to Sheryl Crow for performing what I would call an act of patriotism here.
