Monday Stuff

Good for Joy Reid for spotlighting the ongoing battle here against voter suppression and the effort to secure the vote for people of color and traditional Democratic constituencies (having Ari Berman and Greg Palast on this panel among others tells you that this is a serious discussion)…



…and yeah, I would tend to agree with what Fareed Zakaria says here, but I think we’re a little past the point of flowery, well-worded and well-stated arguments; at a minimum, Generalissimo Trump needs to be impeached, convicted, and removed from office, and you’re either part of that process or you aren’t


…and speaking of protest (were we?), kudos to this man for cornering this Repug U.S. House life form named Tom MacArthur over Trump-scam-care…


…and with the prior clip in mind, it’s time once more for “This Day In Doomsy History” (more or less) from 5/17/11, in which the late Arlen Specter and others are cornered by the Teahadists at town hall events in 2010, in supposedly “spontaneous” town hall outbursts that were orchestrated by “astroturf” outfits, and how, in response, when the Repugs got a taste of their own proverbial medicine, our corporate media paid almost no notice then as now…the Repugs are going to keep coming back with this garbage over and over until they’re voted out of office…



…and this may be the lowest of the low-hanging fruit, but it looks like BIllo is crying to Glenn Beck about George Soros – how the mighty have fallen indeed (if my employer had to pay out $13 million to settle sexual harassment claims against me, not only would I be fired, but I’d be prosecuted also, which I would deserve – NSFW)…



…and I’m pretty sure he’s coming to the W.F. Center with Bonnie Raitt on July 9th – have to put this up for the month and also to remind me that summer is around the corner, at long last.
