Friday Stuff
Thom Hartmann reminds us that the infamous “We Will Bury You” remark from former Soviet Premier Nikita Khrushchev is something that Vlad The Butcher is trying to enact for real...so the Tangerine Toddler talks to the Moscow munchkin and, next thing you know, #47 pulls out 5K troops from Germany, and that’s on top of removing sanctions on Russian oil while continuing to block US weapons to Ukraine as Thom says...Thom recounts the utter horror show of the cabinet appointees in this wretched administration...didn’t know that Kari Lake was at the Voice of America – only the very worst individuals...haven’t paid much attention to the utterly awful Chris Wright also at the DOE; only so much time in the day to catalogue this madness...I think Thom is spot-on to call this list of all of the malign Trumpist actors he goes over an “operational blueprint” to wreck our country...
...and speaking of some of the bottom feeders in our ruling cabal, David Pakman informs us that Trumpist lackey Lee Zeldin went on Fix Noise, got asked a tough question from Liz Claman about his agency allowing more natural gas flaring (which, in addition to looking nightmarish, is also utterly toxic), and Zeldin then went all “humuna humuna humana” as a result...sooo, Zeldin starts yammering about increasing water quality standards across the Delaware River basin (which I don’t believe) even though the damn question was about air quality, and then Zeldin starts running his mouth about environmental regs WHICH HIS BOSS IGNORES AND WANTS TO ABOLISH...
...and when it comes to bad actors running agencies under our ruling regime, you really need to include RFK Jr., who announces again here that he’s going after SSRIs (antidepressants, basically)...leave it to the clueless Kennedy scion to get this issue exactly wrong, though, as Page says, it’s not like we didn’t know that this was something he’d try to do...as she points out, all of this is pretty damn enraging all the same, with all of the cuts and layoffs at HHS affecting mental health services, including those provided for our veterans...so many attacks against us and the way we live our lives are laid out here, including deciding not to study food insecurity, which definitely contributes to mental health...also, I don’t give a damn about the heroin withdrawal experienced by “Bobby Brainworms”; he comes from a family that definitely can afford the very best care, which is not true of course for the vast majority of this country...good point by Page to brings up erectile dysfunction medications and the potential side effects and how that is glossed over by the ethically compromised individuals supposedly “calling the shots” for Our Clueless Orange Meat Sack of a *preznit...
...and Steve Harness and Nick Reynolds of Really American tell us about Mango Mussolini dumping a bunch of toxic soil (likely with lead and asbestos) from his stinking ballroom project on a public golf course...and oh yeah, it looks like Cheetoh Hitler bought the course recently kind of “on the QT” – the grift never ends with our ruling regime...didn’t know that golfers are prone to higher cancer rates; genuinely sorry to hear that...and once more, taxpayers are going to be on the hook for a billion over that ridiculous ballroom, courtesy of Sen. Chuck Grasshole of Iowa (vote out every POS responsible for this, people!)...NSFW/H...
...and Jimmy Kimmel lets us know that “Little Marco” was sent off to meet with Pope Leo at the Vatican, and I’m sure Rubio wore his Florsheim big boy shoes on the orders of Cantaloupe Capone...and of course the big topic was our *preznit’s Not-So-Excellent Adventure in Iran (“Operation Trust Me Bro”? Looks like Iran is winning the trolling war too)...and in true Putin-esque fashion, it’s not a “war” as far as Cheetoh Benito is concerned; it’s an “excursion”...in other news, FBI Director Ka$h Patel took a break from alcoholic binges (allegedly!) to sue The Atlantic for reports of his drinking (love the bottle joke also; audience Mother’s Day skit is clever too...interesting “person in the street getting interviewed” bit as well)...
...and happy 75th birthday to drummer Chris Frantz of Talking Heads and the Tom Tom Club.
