Wednesday Stuff
This is your periodic reminder that our PA-01 U.S. House Rep Brian Fitzpatrick has refused to debate his Dem challenger Bob Harvie, which is in keeping with Fitzpatrick’s pattern of avoidance in that he refuses to hold in-person town halls also.
To begin, this clip from CBC News discusses the beyond idiotic anti-Canada rhetoric from the Gropenfuhrer and his utterly pointless trade war with that nation and the economic impact that we’re dealing with over it...we revisit the NAFTA debate between Poppy Bush, Bill Clinton and Ross Perot, featuring the “giant sucking sound” quote from Perot about jobs going to Mexico, which turned out to be prescient...
...and this TYT segment takes a look at #47’s immigration crackdown hitting red states pretty hard – c’est dommage...report discusses #47’s declining support among Latinos, particularly in Texas and businesses along the border including agriculture and construction...not familiar with the concept of “elite over production,” but I have to admit that it makes sense unfortunately...also, though it appears that enrollment in trade schools did decline, it looks like enrollment is rebounding fortunately based on this...glad to hear that the typically disgusting gerrymandering by Texas Repugs might bite them in the ass...I honestly don’t know what the hell Ana Kasparian means by “unmitigated immigration,” but otherwise I think she makes some good points here (I also wish she’d mentioned the Murphy-Lankford Senate immigration bill and how that got killed to help Don The Con two years ago)...
...and Farron Cousins gives us more on the decision to live stream the firing squad execution of Fort Hood killer Nidal Hasan...yep, the Trumpist regime is acting like terrorist outlaws because 1) They can, and 2) That is what they are...Cousins is right that this will encourage further nut jobs who want to publicize themselves while they go out in a “blaze of glory,” and it will ALSO give those who would do us harm an excuse to do this to OUR OWN MILITARY, if, God forbid, any of them are captured – I realize this didn’t occur to any of the alleged adults running our government, but I definitely think it needs to be mentioned...
...and John and Jayar of The Damage Report tell us that it looks like Our Sweaty Orange Bronzer Boy is going to his Russian benefactor to help with gas prices...typical...I have to admit that I didn’t have Brian Kilmeade actually making sense on my Bingo card (and Rachel Campos Duffy is about as “out to lunch” on this as you can expect)...as noted here, those supposedly great numbers on the amount of diesel fuel Don The Con says we’ll get from Vlad The Butcher doesn’t even cover a day of the actual demand for the stuff – more like 12 hours, unfortunately...four Repug U.S. Senators and two Dems actually found spines on this and stood up to Mango Mussolini, which, given that our *preznit certainly won’t listen, is merely a symbolic gesture, though admittedly it is still important...
...and the Onion News Network presents “In The Know” with Dwight Richmond, concerning the matter of #47 running as a “mid-term *preznit” (as usual, messing with us with satire, though probably not by much versus actual reality)...
...and happy 80th birthday to Justin Hayward, the last surviving member of the Moody Blues.
