Chris Hayes gives us a history lesson on the cost of relying on corrupt regimes for energy (with clips of pretty much every prior president speaking on this going back to Nixon, including The Sainted Ronnie R, who idiotically got rid of the solar panels Jimmy Carter wisely installed at the White House...the person Hayes ended up interviewing was Dem U.S. Senator Ed Markey of Massachusetts, who is pretty damn knowledgeable on the subject of renewable energy...and Biden has banned importing Russian oil as noted here)...
...and that’s probably a good lead-in to this DW report on the Russian military apparently targeting civilians – bastards...also, volunteers are coming from all over the place to help Ukraine, to their eternal credit...security analyst Ed Arnold is interviewed once again...
...and John and Francesca talk about Generalissimo Trump cheering on war between Russia and China (labeling U.S. military planes as if they’re from China, then those planes bomb Russia, then Russia and China go at it and won’t that supposedly be great...unbelievable – yeah, as if that isn’t one of the first things Russia and China already figured out...Francesca makes a lot of good points particularly in the last minute...84 freaking minutes of that numbskull??)...
...and Farron Cousins tells us about the “mighty rodent” in FLA contributing to politicians behind the “don’t say gay” bill...scurrilous monsters supporting that awful legislation – related links are here, here, here, and here...and I guess it shouldn’t surprise me that there’s a bit of an intersection between people supporting awful bills like these and the anti-mask crowd as noted here...
...and with the prior clip in mind, I now give you the latest installment of “This Day In Doomsy History” (more or less) from 3/6/17, in which former Texas sports commentator Dale Hansen (who I believe has since retired) speaks out in defense of trans athlete Mack Beggs – definitely something to keep in mind in light of this...
...and this is probably one of the best clips I’ve seen in awhile on the subject of taxation from Ben Carollo of Rebel HQ (an unidentified guy on TikTok does a good job of blowing up some wingnut talking points on this subject) – I have to admit that I was skeeved out a little at the end, but that’s my problem and I have to get over it (re, the prior two clips)...
...and returning to what I guess you could call more traditional gender roles, Ana of TYT tells us about Joe Manchin joining Repugs to block a Senate bill that would codify Roe (and no, I don’t let Bob Casey off the hook here either; even though the political calculation made that a smart move for an important base constituency for Casey, it was still a crappy move for all the other reasons...I wish I could get mad at Anna for her summing up at the end, but in good conscience I really can’t)...
...and happy 80th birthday to Mark Lindsay of Paul Revere And The Raiders.
