Monday Stuff


John and Yasmin Khan of the Damage Report tell us about the Biden White House wanting to take a kid gloves approach to U.S. Senate alleged Democrat Joe Manchin because Biden and company are apparently worried about having negotiations with Manchin on the climate blow up, or something – as stated in this clip, you’re assuming Manchin is a good faith actor on this stuff; HOW MANY DAMN TIMES DOES HE HAVE TO SHOW YOU THAT HE ISN’T??!!...



...and gee, it looks like that Brave Sir Josh Hawley Bravely Ran Away, you might say...and yeah, I know that clip has made multiple rounds on the internet by now (I thought this was a pretty good comeback), but of course, that Repug U.S. Senate mistake from Missouri remains unbowed, yapping about alleged PA election fraud in 2020, which didn’t actually take place despite all of the damn lawsuits (with Cenk, Jayar and Jessica Burbank...and I DEFINITELY hope Cenk is right about John Fetterman, but let’s keep working to make that happen)...



...and Matt, Emma and the TMR crew tell us about Harvard-educated former pro football center Matt Birk, who is definitely spouting some wingnut nonsense, running for lieutenant governor in Minnesota, speaking on 6/24 when Roe was overturned – after watching this clip, I wonder if Birk has some CTE going on, and I’m not trying to be flip...I hope he gets checked out, and also decides to have ABSOLUTELY NOTHING WHATSOEVER TO DO with running for public office...yeah, watch me talk about rape, rape and rape, and then make a joke about women drivers; what a “laff riot” (mildly NSFW/H)...



...and David Pakman tells us about Texas hospitals not treating patients with serious pregnancy issues out of fear of violating the post-Roe abortion ban, seeing as how at least one of the drugs used for abortion is also used to terminate crisis pregnancies (oh, but let’s not interrupt “I Like Beer” Kavanaugh at his waffle house, because that would be rude...GMAFB!)...



...and according to this clip from the German TV channel DW, Russia’s military is suffering “hundreds of casualties every day” according to a U.S. military analyst...glad to see Russia is apparently not advancing, thought there’s nothing to celebrate when it comes to war because it involves wholesale ruin, and particularly since there really is no “safe space” in Ukraine from Russian attacks – with correspondent Nick Connolly...



...and don’t look now, but here comes a newer tune for a change while we await what hopefully will be some much-needed rain in these parts.
