David Shuster of Rebel HQ tells us that it looks like Jesse Watters of Fix Noise made a "joke" about our service men acting like animals towards women, apparently up to and including r*pe (as if that could EVER be funny) in a segment where Watters of course endorsed the plan of SecDef Kegseth to screen for low testosterone in our military...and was Watters SERIOUSLY trying to argue that we “haven’t been hit” in this Iran debacle? I’m sure the families and friends of the 18 (at least) members of our military killed and the 430 (at least) who’ve suffered traumatic injury would argue with that (and God bless Jessica Tarlov – I don’t know how she remains sane dealing with those hyenas)...also, it appears that Crazy Eyes Kash Patel is “in the soup,” you might say – of course, Patel “skated” over that snorkeling business at the U.S.S. Arizona, which is yet another disgusting episode from an administration that provides them on a daily basis...mildly NSFW/H for a completely apt description of Watters (more here)...
...and John Iadarola of The Damage Report gives us more on the donors to #47’s ballroom, which is going to cost at least $600 million, which, given who were talking about here, means that it will likely cost triple that amount at least...with every story about Trumpist graft and borderline criminality, it seems that we learn about some new individual trying to curry favor, and this time it’s Konstantin Sokolov, a Russian-born private equity investor in Chicago who was one of 36 donors, including 21 corporations and 15 individuals and family foundations, who contributed over $350m to this ballroom project...so this Sokolov guy will oversee the TRIPP trade corridor project (something ELSE named after Our Treasonous Orange Pustule)...oh, and 2/3rds of those who donated have gotten government contracts (I guess our corporate media only cares about “pay to play” when a Democrat is involved...I suppose I should know that by now)...
...and Steve Harness of Really American brings us the tale of our “low T” Secretary of WOOOOAAAARRR ordering a “Blue Angels” flyover at a public beach in Pensacola, FL that violated all kinds of protocols and totally messed up the beach experience for families, and likely gave little kids and adults earaches in the process...proud to be an American, where at least I know I’m free...NSFW/H...
...and Emma Vigeland and Matt Lech of The Majority Report let us know that #47’s Not-So-Excellent Adventure in Iran is causing a crisis in our food supply because the cost of nitrogen fertilizers for our farmers has skyrocketed, and we also send that overseas to underdeveloped nations, specifically in Africa and south Asia...another negative consequence is smaller family farms in this country (do we even have any left?) going under and being gobbled up by agribusinesses (who likely donated to the Gropenfuhrer – see how this all works?)...a family farmer is profiled in a local news report – part of me wonders if this guy voted for Cantaloupe Capone (and if he did, what the hell was he thinking?), but more than anything I’m sorry for his circumstance...I don’t know who that guy was who made that statement about allegedly investigating collusion in the “free market” in response to that reporter’s good question, but he should be hounded day and night IMO until he produces results on behalf of our farmers totally getting hosed by this racket...glad to hear an analysis of the bind the Biden Administration was put in by price gouging corporate bastards – not that that does any good now of course (and oh yeah, Koch Industries figures into this somehow)...Emma is about 150 percent right about Biden FTC Commissioner Lina Khan, and she’s arguably right also about what happened after Ron Klain left the Biden inner circle...
...oh, and I meant to get to this last week, but it got pushed aside for other stuff, so please allow me to present this now (some of our most notable leaders having their say on our current circumstance – briefly NSFW/H also)...
...and RIP Joe Melson, who collaborated with Roy Orbison on some of the latter’s biggest hits, including this one where Melson appeared as a backup singer.
