Francis Maxwell with Meidas Touch brings us the remarks of San Antonio Spurs basketball coach Gregg Popovich regarding the most recent mass shooting in Nashville (not counting Louisville also of course) and some of the related commentary from Big Hair Blackburn in the U.S. Senate; to me, the wonder isn’t that Popovich continues to speak his mind on this, which is commendable, but that more public figures don’t follow suit...
...and with our most recent gun carnage in mind, including Louisville (and is it me, but is it telling that there’s been virtual silence as far as I can determine from Sen. Mr. Elaine Chao and Rand “Fake Ophthalmologist” Paul on that mass casualty event?), the TMR crew tells us that Charlie Kirk sez that mass slaughter is the “price of doing business” to protect our sacred Second Amendment (or at least, Kirk’s ridiculous misinterpretation of it, comparing gun violence to peanut allergies or some such nonsense...and let’s not forget that the NRA is closely aligned with Kirk’s Turning Point USA as noted here)...
...and kudos to Dem Washington state governor Jay Inslee for standing up to that troglodyte Repug governor Brad Little in Idaho who wants to criminalize abortion everywhere (once more, heckuva job with Dobbs, High Court of Hangin’ Judge JR!) – Rachel Maddow explains...
...and Brian Tyler Cohen tells us how Manhattan DA Alvin Bragg gave it back to Gym Jordan over the latter’s typically ridiculous upcoming hearing in The Big Apple (and I think this is exactly what Jordan deserves in response)...
...and Jesse Dollemore brings us the news that, apparently, some idiot named Lance Wallnau says people are going to get killed next month for not supporting Combover Caligula...looks like we’ve got another candidate for the rubber room (and I don’t mean Jesse of course...gee, I wonder if Jordan – allegedly so concerned about victims of violent crime – is going to look into this? Don’t hold your breath)...
...and John and Conscious Lee of The Damage Report tells us about Webster Barnaby, some Repug state rep in Flori-DUUUH!, who thinks trans people are like X-men mutants walking among us, or something...of course, his analogy likely falls apart in his mind when you recall that those comic book characters were the “good guys”...I know there are a lot of good, hard working Dems in that state fighting the good fight, and props to them, but at times like this, part of me thinks that that state can’t break off from our continent and sink into the ocean fast enough...
...and this More Perfect Union clip brings us the story of workers at the Kroger supermarket chain who have dealt with wage theft, something to keep in mind as that giant retailer tries to merge with Albertson’s, which probably would be good for shareholders but lousy for everyone else...
...and I neglected to post yesterday because I got hung up with cataloging my Nazi memorabilia (joke - more here), but I did manage to come across this item where Missouri is apparently not going to fund public libraries any more...yeah, just keep everyone smart enough to work the machines but too dumb to do much of anything else, as The Eternal George Carlin once put it...considering that, I had this “book” tune in mind (and I also give you this insanity from Rep. Mike Moon of the "show me" state).
