(Pic is from here.)
Mike Figueredo of The Humanist Report discusses the millionaire McDonald’s CEO having a meltdown over a worker wage increase in CA under a new law from Dem Governor Gavin Newsom...and it looks like Newsom’s measure is going to get delayed and end on the ballot for next year, giving the pro-CEO forces long enough to stage some “Astroturf” campaign in order to defeat the measure...suffer the poor, oppressed Mickey D’s franchise owner according to Joe Erlinger...GMAFB!...
...and Ana and Cenk of TYT tell us about Bo-Bo Boebert, CO-03’s U.S. Congressional mistake, prattling on obnoxiously as usual, this time about this country’s ridiculous misinterpretation of the Second Amendment to the Constitution, i.e., once more, the insane number of guns in this country and gun-related deaths...BoBo got her panties in a knot over an ATF regulation about registering guns using stabilizers, or something...and as far as that Boebert family photo at the end – and God help those kids – imagine the response if everyone in that pic were African American...some actual sanity on this issue is here...
...and Emma and the crew from The Majority Report bring us a clip of a parent in Flori-DUUUH! commendably pushing back against this Chris Rufo life form who was put in place at the New College of Florida by Ron #DeathSantis to basically turn the school into another conservative factory like Hillsdale College...”The way we view people overseas is the way we view them here”...certainly true in too many cases...
...and OMIGOD! IT’S THE CHINESE SPY BALLOON OVER MONTANA! WE NEED TO SHOOT IT DOWN!...well, THAT would be a hell of a lot more provocative of an action than just leaving the damn thing alone – it’s not like the thing is going to expose any deep, dark secret anyway, and as Beau tells us, this sort of thing has been going on among countries for years and will probably continue to take place...he correctly notes that one of the many, MANY lessons of history that, as a country, we refuse to learn collectively (partly because of idiots like #DeathSantis who don’t know much about the subject anyway as noted here) is that of the Cold War and the U2 plane with Francis Gary Powers that the Russians shot down near the end of President Eisenhower’s term (more here)...
Update 1 2/4/23: Once more, a free people can breathe a sigh of relief...and yeah, that's a joke (here).
Update 2 2/4/23: Figures.
Update 2/5/23: So, in response to the balloon non-story, Rachel Campos-Duffy wants to execute our farmers? Huh??? (here).
...and if you’re going to talk about collective ignorance, I think that’ s pretty fair transition into this segment with Desi Lydic of The Daily Show, where she asks random people in NYC if a “story” is totally made up or was actually discussed on Fix Noise (the items that people get wrong aren’t off by a lot, I have to say...mildly NSFW/H...not trying to be snarky towards the people Lydic interviews, but only trying to make fun yet again of The Roger Ailes BS Factory)...
...and here is another “green” tune to get us revved up in order to cheer on the Iggles (hopefully) in Super Bowl LVII.
