Sunday Stuff


(And doesn't this figure? Also, for what it's worth, I think the Andrew Cuomo stuff should be independently investigated.)

Aida R., Cenk and Jayar tell us about the Repugs and their “golden calf” at CPAC (imagine what would happen, again, if Dems pulled something like this? They’d be pilloried in the media forever, and it would be totally deserved)...



...and Sam and Emma of TMR tell us about the girl at CPAC telling everyone to mask up and getting booed of course – fine...breathe on each other and drop dead; I honestly don’t care what happens to you idiots any more as long as it doesn’t affect me or anybody I know...



...but wait a minute – didn’t Bill Hemmer of Fix Noise say that the libs want to “cancel Bible characters” or something? Well, what does it tell you that, based on the first clip, the wingnuts apparently want to “cancel” the first of the Ten Commandments (David Pakman explains - also a good explanation of how "news" and "opinion" overlap all over the place on that channel)...



...fortunately, The Lincoln Project has an answer for all of this...Qdroxychloroquine...



...and I don’t feature Beau of the Fifth Column nearly as much as I should, but he reminds us here that the COVID relief bill just passed the U.S. House with 0 Republican votes – not surprising I know, but still utterly appalling...



...and John and Brett Erlich tell us about the U.S. Senate BS with the parliamentarian not allowing legislation about a $15 federal minimum wage into the COVID relief bill, though it’s true that apparently you can’t overrule this person if you don’t have 50 votes - to complain, click here and here...I honestly don’t recall Repugs caring a whit about this stuff when they called the shots...



...and even though he’s been president for barely a few weeks, it looks like Joe Biden is honoring another presidential tradition by bombing a Middle Eastern country, though, unlike our Former Orange Pestilence, I’m willing to trust 46’s judgment a little more here, though I know that doesn’t automatically absolve him (and I don’t like giving Mohammed Bone Saw a pass on Jamal Khashoggi either, but again, that didn’t happen on his watch)...Chris Hayes, though, is fundamentally right in saying that we need to end the AUMF and get the hell out of these places...



...and it looks like some California hipsters got together and made not too bad of a newer tune - hope you like it also.
