Monday Stuff


Chris Hayes gives us the gory details on how Combover Caligula is building a police state...thousands of brave folks are protesting across the country against Mango Mussolini in support of the courageous souls in Minneapolis (I know there were a few pundits out there wondering when people in this country would rise up against Dementia J. Trump, and I think that question has been answered)...didn’t know ICE was using facial recognition applications and social media tools to identify people protesting, but that definitely makes sense in a typically twisted way, and OF COURSE Palantir is behind this madness...Hayes notes the arrest of former CNN correspondent Don Lemon, who was released; also, ICE thugs showed up at the door of journalist Georgia Fort in the early morning hours to hold her captive also...whoever this “ICE pastor” in Minneapolis is needs to lose his job, at a minimum...good point by Hayes in particular about Todd Blanche’s attempted whitewash on the Epstein files (and I know I touched on the raid of the election offices in Fulton County, GA already)...



...and Jen Psaki of MS NOW discusses children imprisoned by ICE becoming a flash point, especially for those protesting outside of Dilley, Texas, particularly in response to the capture of 5-year-old Liam Ramos (and once more, as Rep. Joaquin Castro points out, Liam and his father went through the immigration process seeking asylum the right way, but we know what happened despite that)...1100 people are housed (using the term loosely) who didn’t commit a crime – what country am I living in again?...an update on Ramos is here (and I know I’ve included more videos from MS NOW lately as opposed to individual creators such as David Pakman, Farron Cousins, etc., and that’s because I think MS NOW is doing a better job of covering these issues at the moment, though no disrespect is meant towards those other folks)...



...and I don’t want to shock anybody out there, but there are actually signs of life from “Team D” in “the world’s greatest deliberative body” against the ICE Gestapo: Colorado U.S. Senator John Hickenlooper tells us that this criminal rogue outfit doing the bidding of Cantaloupe Capone and Pee Wee German are leaving “death cards” on automobiles where U.S. citizens have been seized...naaah, this isn’t a rogue, out-of-control bunch of thugs, is it? Not much...”cruelty for the sake of cruelty” indeed... Hickenlooper mentions Pumpkin Pol Pot going after law firms, universities and colleges, and our media of course, if they don’t tow the autocratic line... Hickenlooper is also right about “no accountability without transparency,” and I give him credit for that, though personally I think we’ve gone WAAAY past that point...



...and hmmm, death cards, huh? I wonder there our ICE criminals got THAT idea from (NSFW/H)?...



...and RIP Catherine O’Hara, beloved for so many roles, particularly when it comes to SCTV as far as your humble narrator is concerned (for my money, Lola Heatherton is a work of comic genius)...I included this clip previously when Joe Flaherty passed, but I think it works for O’Hara also...



...and happy belated 75th birthday to Phil Collins – wishing him good luck with his own health issues.
