David Pakman gives us more details on how Apartheid Clyde lost and is going away, hopefully (setting about $474 mil on fire for the “R” team; MANY arguments for getting rid of Citizens United, but that is the biggest one I've yet heard)...oh, and Musk had enough of a hissy fit to delete election-related posts, huh? Not surprising...and absolutely, all of the DOGE garbage should be looked at from top to bottom, as well as the details on King Elon getting awarded government contracts, as well as the stuff about Musk not enabling Starlink to help Ukraine launch an attack on Russia in Crimea as noted here (I think I got that right)...
...and Sam and Emma of The Majority Report bring us Dem U.S. Senator-Elect Peggy Flanagan in Minnesota and that great speech after winning her seat (“We Will Rip ICE Apart” – awesome; hopefully that will take place)...good for Emma to remind everyone about the role Bernie Sanders has played, along with (once more) Elon spending crazy dough in the Wisconsin judiciary contest in ’25 and losing on that also...
...and David Shuster of Rebel HQ lets us know that more votes are coming in for Dems, including maybe up to 259 U.S. House seats, and potentially 56 U.S. Senate seats (including Scott Colom over Cindy Hyde “Pick Another Protein” Smith, and hopefully Mary Peltola also in Alaska)...shouldn’t forget about Repug losses in state legislatures in Flori-DUUH, Texas and Georgia as we learn...victories were by decisive margins for the most part...also shouldn’t discount PO’ed minority voters in Mississippi getting questioned about their voting status...didn’t know an “affidavit” ballot in that state is the same as a provisional ballot (learn something new every day)...also didn’t know that state doesn’t have a recount law (Wonder why? On second thought, maybe I don't need to ask)...
...and I’ll admit that this is kind of a long, wonky clip, but Bernie Sanders lays out a pretty clear policy agenda IMO here...I think the wealth tax of 7% (start with that for negotiation and likely end up at 5%) should be the first item on the agenda since that will be the toughest fight, and it will provide the biggest across-the-board benefit I believe...
...and in case we were expecting an improvement from Don The Con given the midterm results...well, I don’t think we should be expecting a change in behavior, sadly, based on what Mr. Newberger presents here...
...and today would have been the 80th birthday of Chris Dreja of The Yardbirds.
