Monday Stuff


I apologize for including so much idiocy from South Carolina Repug senatorial mistake Tim Scott (who somehow is operating under the delusion that he could actually be president), but it is instructive in a way to see his utterly nonsensical answers to the question of supporting a nationwide abortion ban (Janet Yellen? Really??)...Chris Hayes is exactly right in that the “R” party wants the courts to inflict a nationwide ban so political bottom-feeders like Scott can try to escape from this issue, even though it shouldn’t be hard for a Dem to tie extremist judges to Scott and the “party of Lincoln”...one can hope so anyway (and yeah. #DeathSantis couldn't wait to free his fingers from pudding long enough to sign that horrible 6-week ban into law as noted here)...



...and frequent Fix Noise contributor and former detective Ted Williams goes off script while talking to Neil Cavuto after the Louisville shooting and points out that IT’S THE DAMN GUNS!!!, as Brian Tyler Cohen tells us (NSFW/H...as does this guy, amazingly enough)...



Update 4/21/23: Yeah, I think this says it.

...and Ana of Cenk of TYT discuss some Trumpist loon named Seth Weathers launching “woke free beer” aimed at Bud Light of course...and $20 for a six-pack? Too damn funny (more here, and from the “’f’ around and find out” department, I give you this)...



...and Mike Figueredo of The Humanist Report discusses nutball state senator Mike Moon in Missouri, who says it’s OK for 12-year-olds to get married...I linked to this a few days ago I know but I think it needs to be mentioned again (Moon is confronted by Dem Peter Meredith in the clip...and yeah, I love that “California values” remark from this assclown, or whatever that was, as if his lunacy is somehow the fault of an accursed blue state...NSFW/H also)...



...and John and Francesca of The Damage Report bring us up to date on the latest illegality with SCOTUS justice Almost Silent Clarence Thomas and retro-Klan-member-named-guy Harlan Crow...Michael Beschloss reminds us here that liberal Abe Fortas was driven off the court way back when for a hell of a lot less than this (paging Merrick Garland? Can anybody find a pulse?)...I thought this was a good related column from Jamelle Bouie in “the old gray lady”...and believe it or not, there’s more, as noted here...



Update 4/18/23: And this sure was a predictable response from the “party of Lincoln,” wasn’t it? “That Democrat Party is trying to smear a great American again! Corruption in six-figure amounts happens all the time in Washington! SHUTUPSHUTUPSHUTUPSHUTUPSHUTUP YOU FILTHY LIB!”

...and like last year I believe, the tax filing day was moved to tomorrow 4/18; hope you all end up OK – we did all right, fortunately.
