Wednesday Stuff


Usually I wouldn’t give Brian Williams the time of day, but I thought this was a good segment with Dr. Mercedes Carnethon discussing why the most recent Mango Mussolini hate fest in Phoenix was a particularly terrible idea…



…and while we're on the subject of supporters of The Gropenfuhrer, it looks like two of these “Boogaloo Bois” lunatics are wanted for the murder of a federal officer, with one in custody…



…and yep, I’m beating the proverbial drum for the third day in a row on the claim from 45 that he wanted to slow down testing, mainly because I think it matters that much…



…and could it be that longtime U.S. House Dem Eliot Engel of NY has lost his primary to AOC-backed challenger Jamaal Bowman? Let’s hope so (here)…



…and Brian Tyler Cohen brings us this recent exchange between Dem U.S. Senator Kamala Harris and Senate Repug John Cornyn over the dueling crime bills in the U.S. Senate; when Obama looked for a VP nom, he looked to the U.S. Senate, and I think Biden would do well to do the same thing (couldn’t go wrong with either Kamala Harris or Elizabeth Warren as far as I’m concerned)…



…and I thought this was a good “Now This” clip with former Ireland president Mary Robinson talking about the global effects of the COVID-19 pandemic (with Robinson representing a country that has already elected a woman head of state)…



…and in a related story, David Doel brings us the latest bad climate change news - “There is no time to debate this anymore” indeed…



…and kudos to the estate of Tom Petty for this; what would a Repug campaign rally be if it wasn’t trying to illegally use music in violation of somebody’s copyright?
