Saturday Stuff


This is just a reminder that our PA-01 rep Bri-Fi has served our *preznit faithfully over the last two years – not so much for PA-01 overall I would argue (here)...oh, but now Fitzpatrick is claiming here that says town halls are funded by “dark money,” or some such nonsense (i.e., the reason why he chickens out on them...not nearly good enough as far as yours truly is concerned).

Brian Tyler Cohen discusses an utter raging trash fire of a political campaign, and that would be Vivek Ramaswamy’s quest to be governor of Ohio...we learn about Vivek’s typically disgusting attack ad against his Dem gubernatorial opponent Amy Acton...sooo, thanks to Vivek’s garbage, we learn that Acton and her brother were removed from their mother’s custody when she was 12 because the mother’s sick, disgusting boyfriend was accused of statuary r*pe of the now-Dem gubernatorial candidate in Ohio, a rare case of BOTH sides ganging up on the failed off-patent drug salesman, who (as we see) confessed to being responsible for this vile, hateful crap...and leave it to Couch Boy to say Vivek’s horror show isn’t his concern, or whatever (and I definitely don’t want to contemplate Vance’s web browser history, at least not on a full stomach, as long as we’re on the subject)...more on this here...NSFW/H...



...and Sam and Emma of The Majority Report let us know that it looks like Repugs are getting some resistance in Flori-DUUH to the typical “communism” and “socialism” BS even thought that’s pretty much baked in to the political DNA as Sam points out because of Cuban and Venezuelan expats; looks like these people have wised up a bit to the fact that #47’s ICE Gestapo will go after them too, though again, this is the Sunshine State and it’s not as if they’re all going to magically turn into tree-hugging libs...Repug Ashley Moody, running to hold her appointed U.S. Senate seat against Dem Angie Nixon, may be getting some blowback on that...I’d forgotten about Moody’s involvement in laundering (allegedly) dough intended for a kids’ charity into a political PAC for Guv #DeathSantis (and how typical is it for Fix Noise to lead into a “news” segment with “yeah, but Moody is innocent of laundering campaign funds”)...good explanation here from Emma about how those funds from a settlement (to be distributed to sick kids by #DeathSantis’s wife) ended up going to a PAC to defeat cannabis legalization instead...



...and I now give you the latest installment of “This Day In Doomsy History” from 10/24/20, in which we learn more about “Disappointed” Susan Collins falling down on the job as Maine senator – what’s past is prologue, I’d say (and I’ll withhold comment for now on the props handed out here to Olympia Snowe and Bill Cohen)...an update is here; to do something about Collins, click here...



...and Robert Reich and MoveOn discuss a potential AI dystopia...yep, we’re being sold more patently ridiculous BS on AI and related technology, while these data center monstrosities blight our landscapes, consume resources, drive up utility prices and generally ruin our quality of life (and I definitely DO NOT take Apartheid Clyde seriously when he says he favors UBI)...I knew that Alaskans receive dividends from oil and mining businesses, which sounds like a damn good idea to yours truly (and I didn’t know about “surveillance pricing,” yet another dirty trick by our “pay no price, bear no burden” oligarchs)...



...and speaking of the Gropenfuhrer’s mini-me, we get more nonsense about J.D. (“Tell Me What You’re Good At”) Vance from Ronny Chieng of The Daily Show...and I’ll be honest; we’re so hip deep in Trumpian corruption that it is indeed difficult to keep up with it all (and I realize that that’s the point from these cretins)... and I’m pretty sure I already noted that SecDef Kegseth’s boss said “no dice” on live streaming the execution of Nidal Hasan by firing squad, but here is another mention of that (and apparently, televising the state-sponsored murder of a guy in a wheelchair is “a bridge too far” for this regime – got it)...mildly NSFW/H...



...and I thought this was a pretty cool newer number for the weekend – hope it’s a good one for one and all.
