Hypocrites all…

Well…on the MLK day, I am sick of the repubs all quoting him and twisting or cherry picking his words to make themselves look like they are not the white supremacists they are…after all , once this day is over, these hypocrites will go back to trying to keep black and brown people from voting and will continue to support the racists like the proud boys while they try to tear down the social safety nets that the less well to do depend on…people like me…and none of them will again mention him until this day next year unless they are lying to say that MLK would be a maga repub if he was still alive…I’ve got news for you repubs…MLK was a socialist and proud of the social justice he advocated for and not one damn maga asshole supports that. So, let’s just agree that if you aren’t going to do anything to promote social justice, just shut the hell up…geez…

It’s not the same…

Well…the damn news media and the repubs are all breathless since they found 12 classified documents in Joe Biden’s house and office and the repubs are really trying to equate these documents with the 1100 that trump stole…first, as soon as the Biden documents were found, they followed procedure and notified the government and promptly returned them…and they were found in secure areas…and didn’t need to be subpoenaed…now lets contrast that with the idiot trump…he purposely picked and stole 1100 documents, left them where anyone could get to them, lied about having them, would not return them when asked, went to court to keep them, and finally the FBI had to raid his tacky Florida club to get them back…and they still don’t know if they have them all…so these incidents are not the same no matter what fox news says or the repubs say…finding the material in Biden’s home and office is part of the normal functions of government where trump is just a thief who wanted to profit off the material he stole….so shut the hell up…

Settle down, people…

Well…after it was announced that the idiot trump’s company was fined 1.6 million dollars for years of ongoing fraud that it was convicted of, immediately the cries of outrage that the fine was too small exploded everywhere I went on the internet today…and, at first, it even raised my outrage meter a bit that the fine was so small…but, settle down, people…that 1.6 million dollars was the largest fine allowed by law so the sentencing judge couldn’t raise it higher than that…so let’s look at this another way…it not very often that any lawbreaking organization gets the biggest fine possible…it’s usually quite a bit under it so I think the judge did the best he could in this instance to make sure people knew that these crimes were serious enough to merit the top fine…now they just need to lock the criminal in chief up…geez…

The Missouri taliban….

Well…when the Missouri legislature started today, guess what the first piece of business was? The repubs running it just had to propose new rules restricting what women can wear in the chamber…I guess the taliban there was too excited seeing the bare arms of women so they had to make a rule that said that women can’t wear anything that shows their bare arms….what’s next? Are these backward assholes going to propose that women have to wear skirts or hijab? Or veils covering their faces? This is the modern repub party folks…trying to treat women as second class citizens who have no innate rights but only those the men give them…and this is just a part of the repub plan to keep these uppity women in their place across this country…and the only way to make it stop is to stop voting for these pricks…geez..

Poor Rudy…

Well…just saw a bit of good news that the special counsel brought in to consolidate all of the investigations into the idiot trump has brought in a public corruption specialist to be part of the team…and that he has just subpoenaed ole Rudy Giuliani for his role in the 250 million dollar scam that trump pulled when he fleeced his supporters, saying the money was going to be used to contest the election but he never spent any of it for that…and folks, that is called fraud and it is something that idiot boy’s company was just convicted of in NYC. And it looks like everyone else that was involved have been served as well and I sure hope that this means that Jack smith is moving this case and every other case forward and maybe, just maybe he will get to trump soon…and get him the hell out of public life once an for all…geez…

Pretty revealing…

Well…with the repubs only controlling the House and the fact that they won’t be able to get any legislation passed through the Senate, it is pretty revealing that the only thing they are doing is setting up their “investigations” into almost everything that Biden has or hasn’t done over the past two years…and they are just salivating at investigating the January 6th committee and the justice department but especially the FBI who is investigating all of the criminals who were in on the January 6th plot…including the people who will be running those “investigations”…so Merrick Garland has to get off his butt and charge these assholes before that happens….or before they figure out how to derail all of the real investigations into the traitor  trump….I still think this is going to backfire on the repubs in the house…and their infighting has already started the downward spiral of their approval ratings that are going to keep dropping if the talk about cutting SS or Medicare which they will never get through the senate, either…and in 2024 we will take back the house, hopefully for good and then back to repairing all the damage these morons are going to do…

Things are moving in Georgia…

Well…for the past few days I have been having a heck of a time finding topics in politics that interest me enough to do one of these about it…but today, it looks like things are starting to move in Georgia with the disbanding of the special grand jury there that has been investigating the idiot trump’s election interference and the conspiracy to substitute fake electors for the real ones…they have delivered their report to the court and it has accepted it and there will be a hearing on the 25th of this month that will decide whether to release it to the public…the next step should be indictment from a regular grand jury that has the power to do so, unlike the special who couldn’t. So, now the waiting starts to see if idiot boy will be held accountable for at least some of his crimes…and it pisses me off to hear pundits say that there is not enough evidence to indict the idiot for stealing government documents…cripes, the FBI confiscated them from his tack resort and he admitted taking them…what the hell else do they need?  I just need them to do something about this criminal…and do it now….geez…

Bring it….

Well…with little kevvie getting the gavel as speaker of the house, the moron repubs are now spouting about all of the damage they are going to do to SS, Medicare, and the ACA along with the investigations they are going to push…and all I have to say to them is bring it…everything they want to end is popular in the US, a hell of lot more popular than they are and they are going to shriek it from the rooftops and just drive even more people over to our side…and imagine the ads that are going to be run using all of this crap in 2024…and look, they control the house only so basically the only thing they are going to be able to do is investigate everyone and everything…but what they are too stupid to realize that not everyone is crooked like them, and they not going to find anything….and one of their biggest “investigations” is going to be of the January 6th committee…yep investigating an investigation…what a waste of time and our money…

Two years ago…

Well…I sure hope everyone remembers that two years ago, right wing repub thugs attacked this country to try to overthrow the duly elected government…and yet, the chief thug and his minions are still not in jail and are still running around spreading the lies that led to the attack…I know there has been some movement on the investigation and two more prosecutors were added to the 50 or so who are working on the case, but damn, with what we know from the January 6th committee, there is already plenty of evidence to charge the idiot trump and his minions with multiple crimes so why hasn’t that happened? On this dark anniversary, wouldn’t it be the perfect day to indict the ringleaders? And while they are at it, how about kicking the repubs out of congress who voted to overturn the election? As we get farther out with that happening, it just emboldens the repubs to do it again…there has to be consequences for this criminality or they will just keep doing it….geez…

Debbie Stabenow is not going to run in 24

Well…one of our dem senators has decided to not run for re-election when her term ends in 2024…not sure if it surprises me or not but she has been a good senator who has done good work not only representing the people of Michigan and was the first woman elected senator from Michigan. she has done great work as the chair of the agriculture/ nutrition committee that sets agricultural policy for the US…when she was a state senator, I worked with Debbie as the parent representative of Kentwood schools as the repub controlled legislature and Engler tried to screw over districts that wanted to spend more money on their schools….and that gave us proposal A that took school funding out of the local school districts…and is still screwing public schools to this day…and you know who backed that? Yep, the DeVos’s dirty fingers were all over it….so, thanks for your service, Senator, and good luck with the rest of your life….
