Wednesday Stuff



Ana and Cenk of TYT talk about the Biden Administration notifying the archivist that they accidentally came across some classified docs from something called the Penn Biden Center that they apparently found out about last November...you could say there are YUUUUGGGE! differences between this and what the Gropenfuhrer did (Cenk kind of goes off the rails with the Pelosi/McConnell stuff IMO; not saying he doesn’t have a point, even though you should also consider the legislation and policy differences between them, but I think those remarks belong in another video)...



...and gosh, whaddaya know? “All hat, no cattle” Greg Abbott is now begging for $$ from Biden after the Texas guv’s immigration busing stunts (the number I heard on what Abbott did was $12 million, but I suppose it could have been $20, and I forgot about the cost of getting the National Guard forces from other states involved in this nonsense)...



...and Thom Hartmann speaks with Greg Palast about the “secret history” of the 1/6 insurrection, including a lot of discussion about this Ali Alexander character and his rants about violence coming dated from 1/5/21, when he was in Georgia for the runoffs...I think Brazil and Lula offers a lesson in contrasts at a minimum, given this story and the fact that our DOJ (still under Our Ochre Abomination, I realize on 1/6) basically let everybody go home and put Merrick Garland in the position of having to chase these culprits after the damage was done...



...and I know this item is probably about a week old or more, but I’m still pretty disgusted by it, to the point where I checked up on this Cory Mills character a bit, and I found this clip with Jayar and Rick Strom...yeah, I like the “Radical Left Protestors, Philadelphia” thing in his ad where, of course, you can’t verify who it is he’s referring to (and the “Hillary Clinton Protestors” thing is about what you’d expect I guess from a cave man like Mills)...we’re supposed to just take his word for it...uh huh...and as Jayar correctly notes of course, how con-vee-nient that 1/6 protestors aren’t included in that little clip of his with that rock music soundtrack...yep, this sounds like another case of #DeathSantis gerrymandering a Dem out of existence to make room for this troglodyte...something tells me that somebody is going to get the goods on this guy one day, and he’s going to be in a bad way when that happens...we’ll see...



...and the latest from Second Thought tells us Why Corporations Are Evil, or something (on the “B Corp” certification scam...and good job to go after Salesforce, which has been in the news lately as noted here, but not for good reasons...”Under a capitalist system, you cannot be unprofitable, and that will always take precedence over any concern for social and environmental justice.” and “You can always just ignore a protest when you’re in charge.”...yep)...



...and on this day 100 years ago, insulin was injected for the first time to treat diabetes (here)...makes me think of this tune (a bit of a tangent I realize :-).
