Thom Hartmann tells us about a subsidiary of Chucky Koch’s which refuses to leave Russia, because of course, especially considering that his father had a history of building refineries in that country (family came to despise communism all the same for what it’s worth)...
...and I haven’t seen Cenk of TYT this PO’ed in a long time, and I think he’s completely correct to go off on a leader (unfortunately, given the hateful anti-gay garbage this guy is spreading... not Cenk of course) of the Russian Orthodox church (more here)...I don’t think the answer is to ban religion as Cenk says, but people like this POS need to be held accountable for sure...and I know it’s not exactly the same thing, but I would also chastise “faith leaders” in this country such as the person who gave ashes to Joe Manchin on Ash Wednesday, given the fact that Manchin’s disgusting opposition to the child tax credit put 4 million kids into poverty...glad Cenk calls out that wretched National Prayer Breakfast here too, and a pox for sure on Republicans and plenty of Dems who participate in that also...
...and the latest Second Thought video tells us why “neither right nor left” is right-wing – definitely applies to “No Labels” as far as yours truly is concerned; interesting look at "Bonapartism" (the real payoff here IMO was at about 14:31)...
...and Caroline Johnson of Rebel HQ brings us voter intimidation caught on tape in Otero County, New Mexico (I think Merrick Garland at the DOJ needs to appoint somebody just to look at the garbage related to voting all over this country for potential illegality and referring charges to a grand jury if need be, and I’d love to see Doug Jones in charge of something like that)...
...and as a bit of a follow-up, this Now This clip tells us about voting rights under attack 57 years after the “Bloody Sunday” protests on the Edmund Pettus Bridge in Selma, Alabama (backgrounder is here)...
...and John and Kyla Frank of The Damage Report tell us about Congress profiting from weapons we’re sending to Ukraine (by virtue of stock price increases with Lockheed Martin and Raytheon which is going through the roof, bitches...oh, and MTG shrieked about “profit over peace” when she’s one of the life forms in Congress cleaning up – wondering if the stunning financial fraud will register with her lizard-brained followers? Not holding out a lot of hope on that – to do something about that loon from The Peach State, click here)...
...and how about if we stay below that Mason Dixon line for this report of South Carolina deciding to bring back firing squads (that state, by the way, is #42 on this list of the 50 U.S. states across a wide range of measures, including health care accessibility, educational opportunity, economy, quality of infrastructure, fiscal stability, etc. – of course, trying to address these issues might slow down the flow of people in poverty primarily being the ones cycling in and out of their corrections system, and we can’t have that, now can we?)...
...and consider this my periodic reminder that we all need some help from time to time, and please reach out if you need to do so (this can help).
