Rachel Maddow speaks with attorney Joyce Vance on the practical effects of Texas’s beyond-cruel-and-ridiculous anti-abortion law, with Dr. Alan Braid performing the procedure, and now some goofball, out-of-state lawyer is suing over it as the law allows...I’m only a layman on this stuff, but how on earth can this nut job have standing in a case like this?...
...and yeah, don’t you just love it when “Christians” like that “Y’all Qaeda” loon MTG think they can inflict their version of spirituality onto others...
...and returning to our regularly scheduled plague, Farron Cousins tells us about kids in Washington state who partly blame The Swanson TV Dinner Heir for their father’s vaccine hesitancy that led to his death – more here...I commend Cousins here for putting out the suggestion of coming up with a law to prevent medical misinformation, but as much as I want to support something like that, I’ve seen too many cases of laws getting turned around somehow to attack the people trying to do good – the answer is for cable TV subscribers to make enough noise to get garbage channels like Fox, OANN and Newsmax off the air (the wingnuts would probably try something in response against, say, MSNBC, but I’m tired of these lunatics and their threats, so my response is “bring it”)...
...and Brian Tyler Cohen tells us about the 3 Dems in the U.S. House Energy and Commerce Committee (Scott Peters (D-Calif.), Kathleen Rice (D-N.Y.) and Kurt Schrader (D-Ore.)) who ALMOST sank the provision in the infrastructure bill to allow Medicare to negotiate drug prices...more here (NSFW/H)...
...and Ana and Cenk of TYT tell us about the women who rage-quit on Wal-of-China Mart on their way out the door...don’t try this at home, kids, but I have to admit that it’s pretty damn cool...I hope they don’t need these Walmart cretins for a reference, though legally the company can only confirm dates of employment...good points by Cenk about “economic dignity”...
...and RIP Philly guy Leonard “Doc” Gibbs – used to watch “Emeril Live” back in the day, and he had a lot to do with making it a great show.
