Tuesday Stuff


Samantha Bee tells us here about Pfizer and the Sackler family and their role in this country’s opioid epidemic (NSFW – I’m not going to ask how these people sleep at night since these life forms seem to be devoid of any impulse towards human decency or compassion at all, and I certainly am not directing that at the “Full Frontal” host)…



…and Lawrence O’Donnell tells us how Dem New Hampshire U.S. House Rep Katie Porter has stood up again for her constituents, this time on the CFPB (against yet another smirking, Trumpian, unqualified, do-nothing sycophant who was in WAY OVER her head in the hearing O’Donnell described)…



…and Sam Seder and TMR give us a Bernie Sanders flashback from ’89 on climate change as well as the media being swallowed up by conglomerates (and Sam is absolutely right about fixing the ozone layer…I think Michael Brooks and co. kind of push the snark meter here a bit; tongue-in-cheek I know)…



…and Francis Maxwell gives us another “Breakdown” segment about college kids and racism (ugh)…



…and Farron Cousins of “Ring of Fire” tells us how Florida madam “Cindy” Yang (the one involved in the latest shenanigans with New England Patriots owner Robert Kraft) has somehow become a “player” in Republican Party politics all of a sudden (yeah, looks like our corporate media sees this as another snooze-fest…BUT OMIGOD, ILHAN OMAR JUST SAID SOMETHING ELSE!! OUTTA MY WAY – I’M ON DEADLINE!!!)…



…and RIP drummer extraordinaire Hal Blaine of The Wrecking Crew (here) – here is one of his many signature tunes from back in the day.
