Sunday Stuff


Sam Seder and Emma Vigeland tell us that the Swanson TV Dinner Heir complained about “privilege” recently – I think Carlson just destroyed the irony meter (interesting "skill," I guess you could loosely call it, to utter such banal and ridiculous pronouncements with such certainty and conviction)...



...and as long as we’re discussing The Roger Ailes BS Factory, I thought I’d offer this clip from Brian Tyler Cohen where Chris Wallace gives his fellow network anchor John Roberts a lesson on COVID and the economy, albeit politely...



...and The Lincoln Project gives House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy the treatment he deserves here...



...and Rachel Maddow tells us more about the role of Generalissimo Trump in the 1/6 insurrection...and do you realize that, if 45 can’t find anyone to argue his case given this, he’ll have to do so in the Senate himself? I can’t think of a word for the absurdity of such a spectacle...



...and John I. and Dave Levinthal of Business Insider tell us more on the Gropenfuhrer and his – now how can you put this – singular legal troubles...



...and with Marjorie Taylor Greene and Lauren Boebert quite rightly generating headlines for their insanity, I don’t think we should forget Madison Cawthorn, another freshman Republican in the U.S. House, as David Pakman tells us (yep, Cawthorn visited Hitler’s vacation house...and yes, he mentioned Hitler was evil, which, yeah, is kind of like saying the sky is blue, but to be honest, I’m more concerned about the other lies Pakman notes here, which go to a general pattern of untrustworthiness as far as I’m concerned...and oh yeah, there’s this too)...



...and this Now This clip tells us that Honduras kept its abortion ban in place, as well as curtailing access to contraception – you want to know what fundamentalists like Amy Coney Island Baby Barrett have in mind for this country? Something like what is described here in that country...



...and I now give you today's regional weather forecast.
