Friday Stuff


Mehdi Hasan gives us the latest on Former Generalissimo Trump’s attempt to set up a shadow presidency (with Asawin Suebsang and Tina Nguyen...kind of a follow-up to the Chris Hayes clip yesterday about that guttersnipe Jeffrey Clark)...



...and Farron Cousins points out that U.S. Senate Republicans want everyone else to pay for desperately needed infrastructure improvements in this country except the “pay no price, bear no burden” crowd of course...



...and speaking of really bad congressional acts from the “R” party, this Really American clip reminds us that U.S. House Rep Paul Gosar hangs out with neo-Nazis, including this life form named Nick Fuentes (or at least that’s what Gosar was doing when he skipped a COVID relief vote in the U.S. House...more here)...



...and this More Perfect Union clip tells us about Prop 22 in Massachusetts, which is an attempt to totally screw over “gig economy” workers (more here)...



...and I would argue that the prior clip is a factor related to this one, in which Robert Reich provides reasons why millennials are broke (more here)...



...and this Rebel HQ clip form Caroline Johnson tells us about LAPD beach raids on the homeless (growing up in NE Philadelphia, I wish I had a nickel for every time I heard about the horrors of “Section 8” housing, even though the Diplomat apartments, which were flea traps also, would regularly catch fire at around 4 PM every day...you could set your watch by the timing of the fire engine sirens)...



...and in a related item, David Pakman tells us that we could be looking at a SCOTUS clash over the CDC’s eviction moratorium...



...and damn, he sings this great new tune about her and she won't even let him in the house? That's cold!.
