Thursday Stuff


Chris Hayes tells us that U.S. House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy isn’t going to be conducting a 1/6 investigation despite what he said to the contrary (yeah, I know – shocking!) and apparently today was a doc deadline request that may or may not have been met; I’m betting on the latter, but we’ll see (and of course, this tells us more about the antics McCarthy and his playmates have been up to)...



...and Biden AG Merrick Garland announced here that the DOJ is going to sue the “lone star state” over its Taliban-esque abortion ban, which is in clear violation of Planned Parenthood v. Casey (which Garland explains), as well as basic human decency (gee, you'd think that violation of precedent would have been noticed by Strip Search Sammy Alito, "I Like Beer" Kavanaugh and Amy Coney Island Baby Barrett)...



...and David Pakman tells us that the AZ life form who coughed on people while in a Nebraska supermarket has been fired from her job with SAP...good!...



...and Farron Cousins tells us that, according to the U.S. Treasury, the top 1% get out of paying about $163 billion every year in taxes, and apparently it’s legal (other estimates put the amount at about $1 trillion – Jesus wept)...



...and Beau tells us about our media’s alleged surprise over the Taliban taking over in Afghanistan (very tongue-in-cheek, I have to admit...note the “sarcasm” on his shirt)...



...and 65 years ago today (as noted here), Elvis Presley made his debut on the Ed Sullivan TV Show, though he didn't perform this number I'll admit.
