Monday Stuff
I would say that this Meidas Touch clip tells us all we need to know about the Trumpsters and what “taking the fifth” truly means to these treasonous jackals, our recent ruling cabal of liars, traitors and idiots...
...and Farron Cousins tells us about the threats faced by school board members from lunatic parents all over the country over (checks notes), let’s see now...wearing a goddamn piece of cloth over their kids faces, CRT of course (which isn’t taught in ANY elementary school), books about gender identification...seemingly every goddamn thing EXCEPT FREAKING GUNS!!!! (NSFW/H, but for a good reason)...the now-adult one once went to the Pennsbury School District – THANK GOD we no longer have to worry about his K-12 education NOW, or else we’d likely have to go to these nutty meetings and battle some of these troglodyte flesh lumps screeching their garbage (oh, but Smerky just says it’s because of “polarization,” which is typical for a clueless corporate media hack like him)...
...and as long as we're on the subject of idiotic right-wing attacks, Beau tells us about the wingnut frothing ("Cancun" Cruz and raised-fist-traitor Josh Hawley in particular) against Biden nominee Nina Morrison (for the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of New York) because of Morrison's work on The Innocence Project...ummm, last I checked, everyone accused of a crime in this country is guaranteed legal representation...more here...
...and Richard Ojeda of Rebel HQ tells us about a financial web site (Zero Hedge) accused of spreading propaganda in support of Our Former Ol’ Buddy Vladimir Putin (more here)...
...and when it comes to more nonsense in Flori-DUUUHH (land of Ron #DeathSantis), Chris Hayes speaks with reporter Bianca Padro Ocasio of the Miami Herald on Repugs’ efforts in The Sunshine State to illegally change registration of elderly voters from Democrats to Republicans - one negative from this is that formerly Dem voters could no longer vote in their "closed" primary system, which is similar to PA...
...and Thom Hartmann gives us another important history lesson, this time on the Clinton Administration’s funding of abstinence-only sex ed (caving to the wingnuts apparently, which is always a lose-lose proposition) and the Obama teen pregnancy prevention program, and how the rates of teen pregnancy dropped more under Obama than Clinton (what's past is prologue IMHO when it comes to topics some people stupidly find to be uncomfortable to discuss)...
...and as I’ve said before, I really don’t care about Black History Month, mainly because I think African Americans deserve more than one damn month, but I guess you can consider the latest clip from Second Thought below to be my contribution to this discussion (re, how history of accomplishments by leading figures in this area have been co-opted into a narrative to make whites more comfortable)...
...and I realize that the person we recognize first and foremost on President’s Day is the first person to occupy the office, but just to change things up a bit, here’s a tune about Number 29 (and I think the steel drums are a nice touch).
