Tuesday Stuff


Yep, nothing to see here all right – just Wisconsin Repugs trying to “burn it all down” after voters in that state told them to get out of the governor’s office (and actually, pretty much the state “lege” too despite the gerrymandering as noted here and here)…Rachel Maddow talks with Dem state senator Jon Erpenbach…and as noted here, it looks like the “party of Lincoln” is trying to do the same thing in Michigan…



Update 12/5/18: And yeah, this fits the profile too.

…and I know I’m a little late with this, but it looks like Temple Professor Marc Lamont Hill dared to advocate for the Palestinians, so OF COURSE he must be attacked, censured and fired from his job, right? God forbid ANYONE in our media communicates ANYTHING but lockstep fealty to Israel (so Hill saying he wanted to see a Palestinian state “from the river to the sea” is a firing offense? Did I fall asleep and wake up in the Ministry of Love? John of TYT comments along with Michael Shure, Brooke Thomas, and Maytha Alhassen)…



…and speaking of suppressing free speech, Farron Cousins tells us here that federal workers aren’t allowed to say the “I” word when discussing our Treasonous, Tiny-Handed Orange Dictator (heh)…



…and CNN’s Poppy Harlow talks to Carmela Denno, whose family members lost their Youngstown GM jobs and who apparently knows other folks who will experience the same horrific loss, and just in time for the holidays of course…it would be easy for me to ridicule her for voting for Trump, and God only know why anyone would do that given his conduct in the 2016 campaign, but I’m sure she’s a well-meaning person and I hope things work out for the better somehow…if you elect Democrats, you at least have a shot of hanging on to what we once called a fairly secure middle class way of life…you have NO SHOT AT ALL if you support a Republican…



...and here are two more seasonal selections.
