This video from More Perfect Union tells us What Rail Corps Don’t Want You To Know About A New Safety Request...looks like CSX and some of these other outfits want to go to “automated rail inspections” from 2x a week to 2x a month, using some “track geometry” technology that wasn’t intended to replace human track inspections...and oh yeah, let’s not forget that Couch Boy did indeed help lobbyists push back against Vance’s own rail safety bill that was created after the East Palestine rail disaster (here)...more on David Fink (#47’s nominee to head the Federal Railroad Administration) is here...
...and Tennessee Brando informs us that Ryan Walters (who apparently puts the “O” face in Oklahoma...here) now wants teachers to pass “loyalty” tests, that is, if they’re coming from those allegedly nasty blue states such as NY and CA in an effort to combat...OK, everybody now...”woke ideology” (and don’t ask Walters or any of his fellow troglodytes to try and explain what that means) – and yeah, I’m sure teachers from CA, NY, MA, Illinois, NJ, etc. will just be lining up to teach kids in that red state now (oh please)...and once again, I feel the need to point out that we now have a *preznit who doesn’t have a clue as what constitutes a Bible passage (hell, he didn’t even know how to correctly hold one for display), when, on the other hand, we pretty much just drove out of office a Catholic who regularly attended services (NSFW/H)...
...and Jesse Dollemore brings us the tale of the D.C. judge who released the kids charged in the attack on “Big Balls”...as Jesse says, monitoring these two 15-year-olds to get them to not try anything like this again is the common sense approach...it always gets me that the wingnuts oppose anything short of confinement, even though it’s actually cheaper to do stuff like this judge did (costs more to lock them up) – you’d think the cost savings argument would appeal to conservatives, but it never does on this stuff – punishment of the “other” ALWAYS comes first...
...and it looks like “Disappointed” Susan Collins in Maine has at least one Dem declaring to run for the nomination in next year’s election for her seat, and that would be Graham Platner...yeah, I’m partial to team “D” of course, but on top of that, I’m genuinely impressed by what Platner brings to the table here...
...and I thought the apropos lyrics in this upbeat number were totally deserved, especially in light of this...
...and I don’t know exactly what’s going on with the hobby horses here, but I like this newer tune, so here it is.
