Thursday Stuff
(The pic reference is to this, in case that wasn't already apparent.)
David Pakman tells us about the right wing nutter who sprayed liquid on Ilhan Omar, pointing out that “this is how it escalates”...and OF COURSE the Gropenfuhrer found a way to blame Omar instead of this life form who assaulted her (actually, it probably counts as battery more than anything else); I can’t believe we could be looking at three more years of this disgusting pig of a flatulent biped residing in the White House (heckuva job, you idiot voters in PA, MI and WI in ’24...remind me once again why we deserve this because Biden looked bad in a debate)...I thought this was a pretty good discussion by Pakman about how our ruling regime exacerbates threats of violence against those who oppose it...we should have had a law passed ages ago against attacks on public officials and judges when Gabby Giffords was shot, and also when Sen. Alex Padilla was manhandled at an ICE hearing...apparently the substance sprayed on Omar was apple cider vinegar; thankfully it was no worse than that...
...and Kyle Kulinski tells us about Jesse Watters of Fix Noise praising ICE concentration camps; apparently, Billo The Clown’s one-time flunky thinks that ICE detention centers are hotels or something – fine...try spending a night there, then...and boy, is Kyle ever right about the wingnuts falling in line with their stoo-pid talking points regardless of what happens...yep, those detained by ICE are deprived of needed medicine and basic health care, to the point where 40 people have died in ICE custody...and yeah, detaining and basically torturing kids sure is a way to make this country safer, amirite? And I’m sure 5-year-old Liam Ramos is now apparently critically ill because his accommodations are so comfortable...uh huh (here...NSFW/H)...
...and Jesse Dollemore informs us of the wife of a MAGA business owner who endorses murdering protestors in Minneapolis and elsewhere (actually, she may be the co-owner with her husband); she deserves whatever comes next (and no, I’m not endorsing violence)...culprit is named Joy Elizabeth Berggren, and they own Furniture Connection in Clarksville, Tennessee, and, as Jesse says, it appears that the wife is now trying to remove any clue of her online existence...and I guess I should give Dave Berggren a pass for his lame ass apology, which he ONLY MAKES HERE TO PROTECT HIS BUSINESS...not a word of support for the Minneapolis protests of course, but only “oh please don’t hurt my employees because they’re innocent” (and referring to his wife as "someone" - sounds like an oh-so-happy household...what a f*cking joke!) (NSFW/H)...
...and this is a few days old, and I was meaning to get to this before now, but here it is...Brittany Page gives us the latest on the tone deaf Trumpers in our ruling regime, including Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent, who isn’t quite a billionaire but is damn close...Page tells us about an interview with Maria Bartiromo where Bessent said that the “average American” owns 10-12 homes to pay for their retirement (Bessent said he supposedly doesn’t want institutional investors buying up homes, which actually gets to the heart of the matter, shockingly enough, even though I trust Bessent NOT ONE BIT to actually follow through on that)...I honestly don’t know what’s more absurd about what Bessent said, though, the number of homes or the actual notion of “retirement” in this end stage capitalist economy...”it is impossible to save for the future when you can’t even afford the present” indeed (oh, and please allow me to break out the world’s smallest violin for “Bongo” – cry me a freaking river...and “microwaved fish”? That’s a new one, I have to admit... NSFW/H also – I think Page has the right to swear in response to this idiocy)...
...and Desi Lydic of The Daily Show discusses Little Marco” Rubio hiding under a blanket to escape Pumpkin Pol Pot (such a mature bunch of adults in charge...ugh); also, it looks like Greg Bovino has been “reassigned” to somewhere where he can persecute immigrants away from the media spotlight...and Kilmeade thinks Tom Homan would settle down everything; at a minimum, I would suggest elocution lessons for Mush Mouth Homan first...and I think it’s pretty humorous that Repugs are allegedly in favor of doing something, whatever that is, about ICE; as soon as the media spotlight focuses somewhere else, they’ll forget all about claiming to do the right thing...and yeah, Newsmax and Greg Kelly pretty much destroy the stoo-pid meter here (with Troy Iwata...slightly NSFW/H as well)...
...and I think The Boss really nailed it with this new tune (more here).
