Wednesday Stuff
Jesse Dollemore informs us that nearly half of ICE recruits (about 200 apparently) showing up for training are being sent home because they can’t pass an open book test on the Constitution or immigration law, and some also have prior convictions and apparently can’t pass a drug test; additionally, it seems a bunch of these nematodes were brought onboard without going through the full vetting process (mildly NSFW/H)...
...and Tennessee Brando tells us about MAGA mocking the hungry (here) as Cantaloupe Capone wrecks everything, which is typical for the bunch who yelled about groceries all over the place last year, believing that Their Orange God really would lower prices on day one as Brando points out...great point about the cruelty being what matters for Repugs generally; I don’t say that MAGA are different from other Repugs because they’re not – this Trumpist bunch is just the latest iteration of the same crew of intolerant assh*les...I love Brando’s take on the people who “punch down” the most and how these individuals pretend that they’re something special on every Sunday in particular (mildly NSFW/H)...
...and Farron Cousins brings us Americans sharing horror stories from Don The Con’s tariff nightmare...yep, corporate media in this country will NEVER have a problem finding well-off individuals saying how good economically everything supposedly is, but Heaven forbid that they go to these ubiquitous-during-the-presidential-campaign diners for more “Trump Voter In Trump Country” pieces NOW, because they’re likely to get a dose of reality...fortunately, The Guardian actually did what they were supposed to on this story, talking with 40 people to get the gory details...
..and Rachel Maddow tells us about protesting the Gropenfuhrer so he doesn’t take away the right to protest...”nothing is inevitable” indeed...yep, it figures that Bronzer Beelzebub would use a C-17 cargo plane to export a grand total of FIVE FREAKING PEOPLE out of the country (ahhh, just smell the incompetence, my fellow prisoners...more here)...kudos to Maddow for in particular highlighting Comcast for contributing to that stinking ballroom...not sure why this was cut at the moment Maddow talked about the Chicago protests against ICE (more here)...
...and I guess it was inevitable that our neighbors to the north would respond with their own version of (N)ICE...oh, the humanity! (here)...
...and I realize we’re heading into the time of year for witches and goblins and the like (and the kids are getting ready to head out for candy – hopefully the weather will cooperate)...with that in mind, I present this tune.
