Farron Cousins tells us that it looks like over $1 billion has been paid out to U.S. farmers as a result of the ruinous tariffs from Mango Mussolini, something ELSE about #45 that has gotten the “memory hole” treatment from our beyond-useless corporate media, as Cousins rightly notes with plenty of deserved outrage (and no, I don’t mind our farmers getting paid either)...and yeah, I think this is yet another mess to be cleaned up by “Dark Brandon” at some point, as well as trying to get the post office commissioners (or whatever their titles are) to FIRE LOUIS DEJOY AT LONG FREAKING LAST!...
...and Richard Ojeda of Rebel HQ tells us about the latest in wingnuttia from Trump rally attendees (“Zuckabuck”? And why the hell would James Woods be playing Biden? He’s a wingnut too!)...
...and when it comes to Our Ochre Abomination...well, believe it or not, there are MORE tapes, with #45 saying he didn’t want to put out a COVID plan until closer to the election, as opposed to, y’know, when it would do the most freaking good (and yeah, the Kim Jong Un stuff is weird, but maybe that’s just his “kink”)...
Update: And speaking of nonsense from Generalissimo Trump, I give you this.
...and Sam and Emma tell us about RoJo’s sweet tax avoidance deal, apparently centered around some luxury condo in Washington, D.C., with the non-inconsequential help of former Repug Wisconsin governor Scott Walker...to help Mandela Barnes running against Johnson, click here...
...and this Lincoln Project video notes the ways that Ron #DeathSantis in FLA is trying to control the vote in that state’s gubernatorial election (a variation of the garbage pertaining to Arizona noted yesterday); to help Dem Charlie Crist running against #DeathSantis, click here...
...and this recent video from Second Thought tells us about the role played by capitalism in Russia’s descent under Vlad The Butcher (I thought this was a terrific analysis of the horror of economic “shock therapy” as a prelude to capitalist “reform,” particularly in Russia, but I respectfully take issue with his claim that capitalism led to the Ukraine war...as far as I’m concerned, that has more to do with Putin’s sick, twisted dreams of trying to reconstitute pre-Soviet-era nationalism, or something like that)...
...and I’m going to try and wrap up this post with some positive news, and it’s this clip from Rachel Maddow (remember her?) telling us that early voting in FLA, Georgia, North Carolina, Ohio and elsewhere is apparently on a par with presidential elections, which SHOULD be good news, but we’ll see of course...
...and here’s a selection I usually include this time of year, and I’d better hurry up and add it since the month will wrap up in a few days.
