Monday Stuff


Kyle K. tells us about Stuart Varney trying to concoct some kind of a hit piece on Bernie Sanders and his support of striking GM workers – yes, ridiculous for all of the reasons astutely noted by Kyle in the clip (mildly NSFW...and yeah, supposedly, Bernie's support among African Americans is cratering - uh huh)…



…and keeping with the theme of income inequality, I give you this from John, Cenk and Mark Thompson…



…and boy, this is truly the stuff of nightmares – Sam Seder and the TMR crew present a clip of Naomi Klein telling us that the wingnuts could actually be WORSE than they are now if they come around on the issue of climate change…



…and I’m going to dig back in the archives a bit and present this from last December, with Farron Cousins telling us just how bad Jeff Flake really is in light of this; our bought-and-paid-for Beltway corporate media courtiers just LOVE to shine a spotlight on some supposedly middle-of-the-road Republican to lecture the rabble about staying in line, so they don’t do stuff the elite punditocracy doesn’t like, such as GM workers striking for higher wages and getting their health benefits back as shown in the first clip…



Update: I would be inclined to agree with this.

…and I now give you the latest installment of “This Day In Doomsy History” (more or less) from 9/29/14, and it would be a “Worst Person” segment from K.O. featuring Baby Newton Leroy Gingrich in which he criticized former President Obama for appearing as Disneyworld; the timing of this follows somewhat that of the U.S. Senate’s passage of the Contract on America a little over 24 years ago on 9/19/95, an utterly craven exercise brought to us largely from the disgraced former U.S. House Speaker (a bit of an NSFW update with Gingrich is here)…



...and happy 55th birthday to Trey Anastasio.
