Well….not sure if I’ve seen another human being melt down in real time but we are seeing it right now with ole elon and it is not pretty….and every time he opens his mouth, tesla stock takes another nosedive losing almost 10% Friday…meaning that tesla has lost hundreds of billions of it’s worth since elon started to try to buy twitter and shot his mouth off that he is only going to vote for repubs from now on…and that is really no surprise since the repubs are the party of the pouty billionaires who know they won’t make them pay their fair share of taxes…I wonder how the board of tesla feels about ole elon tanking the stock price by almost 50% from it’s high? And how he is alienating the normal left leaning tesla buyer with his pronouncements that he is now full maga? How many coal rolling maga folks buy teslas? I think all of this stems from him having someone say no to him for the first time in his life and not falling to their knees and worshiping him like he is used to….and his petulant reaction to is is just like a spoiled child that lashes out when he is told no….and let’s remember, ole elon is not a self made man…he inherited hundreds of millions from his daddy who was an emerald mine owner…and remember that he bought into tesla, he didn’t invent them he just brought cash to a product that was already in progress before he showed up….if anyone cares about him, they should pull him aside and call him out on this craziness and try to put him back on at least a quiet path….it costs quite a few people lots of money as he careens around shooting his mouth off….and as much as I like to see rich assholes lose everything, I feel for the workers at telsa that are going to pay the price for elon’s maga conversion…

Let’s look at the numbers…
Well…with all the hyperventilating on the right about Hunter Biden’s laptop and the “explosive” information it may or not contain, let’s look at the numbers here and see if any of it is abnormal in any way. the latest talking point is that Hunter’s firm made 11 million dollars from 2013 to 2018….hmmm…11 million divided by 6 is 1.83 million dollars a year….and the right thinks that is a lot of money for a consulting firm and would make an irresistible bribe? So, what does that make the 640 million dollars that jared and ivanka raked in when the were working in the WH? Let’s remember that Hunter never worked in government while his firm was making 11 million dollars over 6 years and his father was not president yet, so the chance that any of it was a bribe was exceedingly small…but with jarvanka? You just have to look at the 2 billion dollars that the saudis gave jared after he left the WH to see a real bribe…or was it for services rendered? I just can’t figure out why when a repub goes off about Hunter that the media doesn’t ask just this question…ask them if they don’t think there might be a small possibility that the 640 mil that jarvanka made might be considered a bribe? And keep hammering them on it until they answer or run away…and all dems should be doing the same thing…when these right wing morons spout off about Hunter, there needs to be a senator or congressperson go to the media and ask these questions…and ask why they weren’t concerned with WH employees taking 640 million dollars while working there…that should shut them up pretty quickly and would get us in practice for playing hardball…geez…
Now they’re against feeding babies…
Well..is anyone else as damn tired of the repubs as I am? These assholes spent this whole week bitching that Biden isn’t doing enough to fix the baby formula shortage here in the US…of course, Biden has been working with business and the congress to get formula flowing again and he asked for 28 million dollars for the emergency shipping of formula from Europe and Canada….and guess what every damn repub but 9 did when the bill came up in the house? They all voted against it…yep almost all of them voted against any measures to solve the problem, showing that it was all just them being assholes when they bitched about it…and really drives the point home that the repubs don’t want to govern at all…they just want to burn the US down to get their jollies and make their crazy assed base happy. Finally, Biden is starting to get that you can’t negotiate with these pricks, you can’t “partner” with them to get things done, and they don’t give a damn about this country…just scoring political points that will get them on fox news later in the day…and every one of them needs to go…
Looks like the DOJ may have woken up..
Well…just wanted to do a short comment on a bit of news I have been waiting to hear since Merrick Garland took over the DOJ…just a couple of days ago, the DOJ asked for transcripts of all of the interviews that the Jan 6th committee has done so far and that is around 1200 people that were somehow involved in the attack on this country…and I’m not sure but this might have been the plan all along…to let the committee do the work and get these people under oath so the DOJ didn’t have to fight every one of them in court….I’ll be more assured when I hear of indictments for Meadows, Bannon, and the idiot trump in the near future…and I hope some of it happens before the public hearings start on June 9th…and the indictments would go a long way to break through the stupidity of those involved who think they can just run out the clock and are waiting for the fall elections with the hope that the repubs will take control of the house and stop the committee from continuing…but it appears that with this request, no matter what the repubs do, the DOJ is going to continue to build cases against these thugs who tried to overthrow the government….we can only hope anyway…
Ha, ha…Madison Cawthorn lost last night…
Well…just a short one with a bit of good news…Madison Cawthorn lost his primary last night and will be out of congress after only two years…you know the guy…a trump favorite who broke the law numerous time by carrying weapons into everywhere…a primary school, congress, airports…and getting pulled over for driving without a license at least 3 times…and gee, do you think it’s white privilege that he never even got charged with any of it? It’s something that this ass could get away with all this crap and he’s only 26…straight to the fox news grifter’s paradise for this one….and to quote ole Maddy…na na na na, na na na na, hey hey hey, goodbye…and good riddance….
Maybe they should be replaced….
Well…you know, when I hear of all these white supremacist assholes whine and whine about “great replacement theory” and see their actions every damn day to do their best to destroy this country, I really think that maybe they should be replaced…replaced by an immigrant who comes here to start a better life and who will be thankful of the opportunity….not thinking they are “entitled” to success just by being white…and the question I have to ask is “do you know anyone who has been “replaced” by an immigrant? If you do, do you think it was the immigrant’s decision? Or was it the owner of your company lusting after bigger profits for himself that saw a way to cut labor costs? I never see these assholes talking once about the rich white folks who own the companies and don’t give a damn about them…and this is because they can’t scapegoat the owners since they have all the power and the owners know that if they keep their workers stirred up about lies, they can do whatever they want to them with little danger of the workers doing anything about it. To this, add the lies that white losers are going to be “replaced” politically by all of the immigrants voting for dems….did you know that immigrants can’t vote until they are citizens…a process that takes years if it happens at all? And the lies that these white losers lap up about this shows again that maybe they should be replaced by people who can think for themselves and don’t just slavishly react to what tucker tells them every night. I’ve had enough of these racist losers trying to murder their way to a country that values losers and morons just because they are white….and that is why all of us need to go out and elect more dems to stamp out this cancer on the country…or more bodies will continue to pile up as we coddle the racist right.
The repubs are all responsible…
Well…they are responsible for this…they are responsible for 10 people being killed in Buffalo since they all have been in bed with the white nationalist assholes in this country and push the conspiracy theory that there is a concerted effort to replace white people in this country with black and brown people…and this is pushed every damn night on Tucker Carlson’s hate show and was used in ads for the third ranking repub in the house who carpet bombed facebook with them….and then the murderer wrote in his “manifesto” exactly what tucker and Stefanik were pushing…so, if anyone tries to tell you this shooter was a “lone wolf”, it is pure bullshit….this is their plan now…to incite their followers to start killing black and brown people to terrorize them into hiding away and not voting…not different than what the KKK did when they murdered black people who tried to vote…and it will keep happening until every damn repub is thrown out of office….after all they are all responsible…and not one of them has condemned the white replacement bullshit that this idiot used as the reason for killing 10 black people…not a damn one….
Clarence Thomas is an idiot….
Well…after the interview that Clarence Thomas gave yesterday, there is no conclusion you can draw but that he is a frickin idiot…he started out saying that the credibility of the SC has been destroyed by the leak of Alito’s unhinged opinion that will overturn Roe and then went on to praise Mcconnell for keeping Garland off the court and attacked John Roberts being appointed to the chief justice chair and went off on him, saying that the appointment started the decline in the court….and that left is bad…yadda, yadda…the same old bullshit from one of the worst justices in the court’s history. Hey, Clarence, do you think part of the crisis in the court might, just might be because you have a wife who tried to overthrow the government and then you didn’t recuse yourself in cases that she was involved in? Or that you and your unqualified right wing cronies have been ignoring precedent when it gets in your way as you legislate from the bench? Or that you have decided to remove rights from half of the country for the first time in the country’s history? No…it couldn’t be that…it’s the protestors outside Kavanaugh’s house who have done the damage to the court, right? That’s what you said in this crazy assed interview that highlighted the need to expand the court to keep you from destroying this country….you are a major reason for the court losing it’s legitimacy along with all of the unqualified liars you sit on the court with…and it is you that have destroyed the court….no one or nothing else….geez…
The repubs show they truly are evil…
Well…damn, just when you think the repubs have hit peak evil, another day goes by and they are even worse…and their newest racist, evil thing is to play on the baby formula shortage, caused by the FDA shutting down the biggest plant in the US that makes it for a huge contamination problem where two babies were killed by the contamination. The equipment in this plant owned by Abbott was worn out twenty years ago and should have been replaced with new machines that are easier to keep sanitary…but, the company thought spending almost 6 billion dollars on stock buybacks was better for the stockholders and execs running the company so that’s what they did instead. I’m sure you remember that asylum seekers at the southern border come here with their children to escape the violence in their countries, and the US government buys formula by the pallet load and sends it to keep those children alive…but, that is just too much for the racist asshole repubs and they are using the fact that Biden is feeding children who we have a responsibility for to attack him…shouting that those “brown” children should be left to starve until white babies have all they need…yep, they actually said that…now, I may be off base but that sounds evil to me. And the actions of the company that is supposed to be making the formula to pay off the rich guys instead of investing to make sure there is enough for all babies is evil, too…so, do you see the difference between the parties? Our side cares about everyone and our politicians do, too…and Biden is working overtime to help this company get back in production…not sure what a repub would do…surely not give a damn….evil…
Shouldn’t the SEC investigate Musk?
Well… with ole elon manipulating the stock price of both tesla and twitter with his loud mouth, moronic proclamations, shouldn’t the SEC start an investigation into what the hell is going on? Since this moron announced he was going to buy twitter using tesla stock as collateral, the price of tesla is down almost 40% which is the trigger for elon having to pay back the entire loan immediately…and there is no way he can come up with 44 billion dollars in cash…so today, he announces that the twitter purchase is on hold for some bullshit reason, and tesla stock goes up by 10% getting him out of the danger zone….and the kicker is that twitter stock dropped by 12%, making the company worth much less than the amount that ole elon offered for it…if this is not illegal stock manipulation, than what the hell is? This is not the first time he has done this, and with the established pattern of him doing the over and over, now is the time for the SEC to launch a criminal investigation and stop another rich guy from thinking the law doesn’t apply to him…geez…
