John I. and Gary Chambers of The Damage Report tell us about the military advisors quitting on “Curtsy Kyrsten” (good work in particular by Chambers here to talk about the human cost of Sinema’s games, particularly related to the climate)...
...and Ana and Cenk of TYT tell us about Sinema’s obstructionist pal Joe Manchin meeting with a Trump-supporting billionaire, because of course he is (”lean to the green” indeed)...
...oh, and remember that alleged voting rights compromise where Manchin pretty much guaranteed that he could get 10 Republicans in the U.S. Senate to sign on? Well, I think you can guess what happened with that, as Rachel Maddow explains – womp womp...
...and turning to labor news, this More Perfect Union video tells us about Kellogg workers striking for more tolerable working conditions, such as actually getting at least some of their weekends off...
...which (as far as I’m concerned), dovetails into this Second Thought video about what capitalism has done to work (mildly NSFW/H)...
...and Beau talks about declaring the American Bumble Bee as endangered; uh, this is indeed a big freaking deal, people...without bees pollenating, we’re pretty much all dead...
...with all of this negativity, though, I’d like to offer something a little more upbeat IMO, and that is the news of Summer Lee running in our beloved commonwealth to replace retiring Dem U.S. House Rep Mike Doyle (a link to her campaign site is here)...
...and a belated happy 75th birthday to trumpeter Lee Loughnane of the band Chicago.
