Monday Stuff
Brian Tyler Cohen brings us a clip of U.S. House Repugs chanting “U-S-A! U-S-A!” like it’s a high-school pep rally of course while they gut Medicaid, SNAP and all other manner of government assistance...yeah, those U.S. House Repug lowlifes are just SO PROUD OF THEMSELVES for passing Bronzer Beelzebub’s “Big Beautiful Clusterf*ck”...oh, and here comes Bri-Fi to plead that he didn’t think Medicaid would be cut; again, he’s either naïve or stoo-pid, or both (the last CBO estimate had 10.9 million losing coverage in the House version)...and oh yeah, isn’t it interesting to see how Tim Burchett was for the CBO budget estimates before he was against them...and yeah, I knew Huckleberry Graham was a servile lickspittle, but wow, does that anecdote about the wings and a T-shirt prove it...and not to be outdone, Drunken Van Orden of Wisconsin also fell for the Gropenfuhrer’s “charm offensive,” apparently, when it comes to cutting Medicaid funding for rural hospitals...
...and Sam of The Majority Report brings us the clip of Dem U.S. House Rep Joe Neguse talking about a “whaler tax cut” that bought around Lisa Murkowski, apparently, on this horrible budget bill (and Jim McGovern chimes in also in a snarky but appropriate manner IMO)...and yeah, Brave Sir Josh Hawley did indeed cave on the Big Beautiful Atrocity before he presumably ran away again...and I totally get Sam’s snarky comment about Dem U.S. Senate “leader” Chuck Schumer – again, I can’t think of a word to describe how pathetic it is that he actually took the job once held by Harry Reid, who would have dragged Schumer’s sorry butt all over the place...the fact that Schumer didn’t tell every Senate Dem to get up and walk out immediately after the way Sen. Padilla was attacked is typical...
...and I’m going to digress a bit here and remind us all about the genocide Israel is committing in Gaza (and yes, it is in fact a “genocide” according to the UN and Amnesty International as noted here), bombing a popular seaside café frequented by Palestinians about a week ago...American neurosurgeon Dr. Abdul Basit Khan in Gaza speaks with Amy Goodman and Juan Gonzales of Democracy Now!; Khan said the collective carnage in that area is “the worst thing he’s ever seen” (and just in time for this)...
...and venturing into the theater of the absurd in this country, David Pakman (not him) tells us that State Department spokes-person Tammy Bruce thanks God for Trump (and #47 cares absolutely nothing about Palestinians in Gaza of course; if he does, it’s only to see them wiped out)...”the total collapse of honest political discourse” indeed...in a weird way, Bruce is actually right about “the middle east changing forever,” but DEFINITELY NOT in a way favorable to us or basic humanity (see prior clip)...and oh yeah, let’s hear once more about what the Gropenfuhrer has “given up and sacrificed” to be *preznit (here)...and sooo, Bruce knows absolutely nothing apparently about #47’s plans (and he probably doesn’t either), but she “knows to trust him”; Bruce is giving “Baghdad Bob” a run for his money (the language of a cult indeed)...and in case you’re wondering how #47 found Bruce, I think this gives you a hint...
...and Tennessee Brando tells us about MAGA tipping their hand a bit with some “Christian nationalist” pastor saying that only “Christian nationalist” men can be in charge (the guy looks like Matt Walsh a bit)...yep, you can always count on the wingnuts to peel off the mask of supposed moderation the first chance they get...glad to hear Brando draw a link between the Obama “Kenyan Muslim” garbage and attacks against Zohran Mamdani, which to me are two peas in the same disgusting pod...and I’m a fan of Sturgill Simpson too, by the way (mildly NSFW/H)...
...and even though dumb Americans (for the most part, barring Apartheid Clyde and the Palantir shenanigans) elected Pumpkin Pol Pot and not a deity, I still find myself wanting to hear this tune.
