(Something about “George Santos” displaying the white power symbol here makes me laugh unintentionally. Why do all of these life forms doing the “OK” gesture hold their hands low the way they do? Do they honestly think they WON’T be seen making that gesture if they do that?)
John and Brett Erlich of The Damage Report tell us that the NY-03 U.S. House Rep pictured isn’t exactly getting off to a good start as he begins his career of constituent service, allegedly...office not set up yet, nobody taking calls or responding to emails/texts, etc...and yeah, I get Erlich’s tongue-in-cheek response - more here...
...and David Doel tells us about supporters of election-loser Jair Bolsonaro in Brazil staging their own 1/6-style insurrection...my hope is that this gets linked back to Bannon and Miller and those two cretins end up getting the justice that has escaped them in this country (GREAT point about the Repugs screeching about criminals illegally emigrating to this country over our border...well, what the hell do you call Bolsonaro... mildly NSFW/H...more here)...
...and it looks like the “party of Lincoln” in the U.S. House REALLY has a problem now, not because they care about the 99 percent of this country, but because their donors are apparently mad over last week’s ridiculous attempt at governance from the new Repug majority – Farron Cousins tells us more...
...and Sam, Emma and author and filmmaker Astra Taylor talk about right-wing judges tying to kill Biden’s student debt forgiveness plan – sounds like there are 2 trial cases, one in Missouri and one in Texas (of course) that have bubbled their way through the appeals courts to sympathetic conservative judges who have allowed the cases to proceed even though, in at least one, the plaintiffs don’t appear to have standing...but why bother with trivial details like actual legality when you’re trying to screw Democrats? And Sam makes a great point about how our “shadow docket” SCOTUS is looking for ANY possible excuse to take away any possible benefit from non-rich people (and why does it not surprise me in the least that this nonsense is funded by reactionary corporate assholes like the Mercers and Bernie Marcus of Home Depot...and with that in mind, isn’t this interesting)...
...and here is a compilation of clips from Rebel HQ...first, David Shuster brings us some Republican women being somewhat informed on abortion and others not having any idea of what the hell it is they’re talking about; next, Max Burns focuses on “Christian” preacher Jonathan Shelley wishing for Biden to die and opposing ANY woman running for office, and then back to Shuster discussing the spat between 1/6 insurrection organizer Ali Alexander and Marjorie Traitor Greene (should just lock the two of them in a cage and let them do their worst to each other)...
...and happy belated 75th (!) birthday to Kenny Loggins.
