Well…I wonder how the media is going to spin this one….the numbers for first time unemployment claims came in at the lowest since 1969 last week with only 190,000 people filing…but the media will either ignore it or gin up some fake scandal and spend days reporting on it…like corded earbuds or 350 dollar pots….or the headline will read: “190,000 more people out of work!!!” You get what I’m saying…and I’ve bitched about that a lot lately but it is so frustrating that we are on the verge of the best two year economy in the history of the country if the big bank’s projections are correct…and yet people still think that the economy sucks really bad even though they are doing okay…and child poverty is down by 40%, and wages for the lower third of workers are up by 13% this year and are on track to rise more next year…and more people are changing jobs than ever before…and yet, crickets from the media…if the idiot trump had done even one of the many, many things that Biden has done to help the people, they would have run article after article about it and called it a miracle….but no, it’s like the media want Biden to fail or to make it look like he failed…we know the repubs want more people to die from the virus to make Biden look bad, but the media is supposed to be objective and report the news…and the economic numbers we’re seeing are good news…just no one knows it yet…geez…

I was right…
Well…as you know, one of my big bitches is that it appears that media coverage of Joe Biden is much more negative than it was for the idiot trump…anecdotal evidence of course, but there is now a new analysis from the Washington Post that shows what I expected is true….that the media doesn’t cover any of the good things happening with the Biden administration but they reported any damn thing that idiot boy did and tried to slant it as being positive. Finally, the press is starting to realize their part in this slanting of news stories and some big names are beginning to sound the alarm about the damage this is doing to the mood of the country…especially since people don’t seem to know that jobs and wages are up and that the pandemic is now in full bloom in red counties where most of the people are not vaccinated. It’s not cheerleading for the Biden administration when you report the truth and the progress that has been made, and if you report that the repubs are still trying to rig the next election and take away women’s rights…and those kinds of things are damn serious and people need to know about it….it seems that idiot boy damaged the media along with the government in his 4 years of a criminal administration….and all of us need to do our part to repair it…at least vote…and not for the damn repubs…geez…
What the heck is wrong with the media?
Well…judging how the media covers Kamala Harris, you would think that she is the worst person in the world…after all, she bought a 350 dollar pot a couple of weeks ago that was “news” for a couple of weeks but now, there is even a bigger scandal that erupted yesterday…she uses corded earbuds instead of bluetooth ones! Yeah, that was sarcasm but the media has been on the “scandal” for two full days now after Harris said that bluetooth ones are a security risk and can let people listen in to her calls….so when idiot boy used his non-secure personal cell phone to call everyone, the media just shrugged it’s shoulders and said so what….and now a female VP follows the rules on security, it’s a story that lasts two days? This is the kind of thing that just irritates the hell out of me about the media…when it’s dems in charge, every damn thing is a scandal, but when the previous guy tries to overthrow the government it just gets another shrug….no more “bothsiderism” media….do your damn jobs right for a change….geez….
He admitted it live on tv…
Well…I wonder if this will be enough for Merrick Garland to at least investigate trump now….just yesterday, on live tv, the idiot trump admitted that he fired James Comey because, if he didn’t, the were going to “get” him….now, I’m not a lawyer but damn, if that’s not obstruction of justice, what the hell is? One of the things that Garland said was that the law applies to everyone…so why hasn’t idiot boy been indicted yet? This is what happens when you don’t hold people accountable for their crimes…they continue to break the law in plain sight and this has been the case for rich people in this country for a long time….I know I expect Biden to stay out of the business of the DOJ and not use it as his personal law firm like trump did…but, there had to have been discussions on what the priorities of the DOJ were going to be under Garland, and restoring the rule of law had to be in the top 5…so why isn’t it happening? It’s been almost a year since the attack on congress and only the little fish have been charged and convicted…what about the planners and financiers of the attack? Why have none of them been charged? I am losing faith in Garland and his approach…the people of the US needs to hear that something is happening to finally hold people accountable, damn the political fallout….and it needs to happen now….geez…
We have a winner!
Well…in the continuing contest on the right to try to be the dumbest person in the country, as of this morning we have a winner! Marjorie Taylor Greene even beat out Louie Gohmert and that takes a lot of doing…and how did she win? With a tweet this morning comparing covid to cancer and it went like this: “1. every single year more that 600,000 people in the US die from cancer….the country has not once shut down….not a single school has closed….and every year, over 600,000 people, of all ages and all races will continue to die from cancer.” Okay, now this is the dumbest way to go after covid restrictions and vaccines that I have ever seen…I wonder if she even went to grade school because, by third grade, I knew the difference between a disease like cancer and an INFECTIOUS disease like covid….marjorie you idiot…you can’t get cancer from just being in the same room with someone with cancer…cancer is not transmissible….oh, that’s too big of a word for you? Let’s put it this way, you can’t catch cancer from someone else that has it…is that more understandable to idiots? I am constantly surprised how stupid the modern repub is and they wear their stupidity like a badge of honor and their voters love them some of that stupidity since most of them are just as stupid…they’d have to be to listen to this moron and electing her….geez….
A tale of two headlines…
Well…if you believed all the bullshit coming out of the righties that the media in this country has a “liberal bias” and always favors the dems….I have a couple of headlines I want to read and try to figure out which one was written about a repub president, and which on was written about a dem president…”US added a strong 200K jobs in January..” and “US employers added a sluggish 210K jobs in November..”…you know where I’m going with this…the same news organization, Associated Press, wrote both of them and the first one was about the idiot trump…and the second one was written about Biden….gee it would appear that they are trying to tear Biden down for some reason….like maybe he doesn’t give them scandal upon scandal to write about….look, the bottom line is that, under Biden, more jobs have been added in 10 months than with the last 3 repub presidents combined….so if job growth slows down a bit over a month, you would think the media would say something like “to make it a trend, we need to wait for next month’s numbers”….but no…that wouldn’t help the repubs that own most of the media in this country…and you see the same thing on CNN now…it has turned into fox news light and the stench of bias is all over it…geez….
Isn’t that perjury?
Well…with the women’s right to control here own body hanging by a thread because of the three stolen seats on the supreme court voting against women…I have a question…during the confirmation hearings for the three new far right justices, each of them were asked if they would uphold Roe and all three of them spewed the same bullshit that roe was “settled law”…so now we know all three of them were lying…isn’t that perjury? Or at least lying to a congressional committee? Isn’t that reason to impeach and remove them? The newest one, Barrett, even came out with the stupid idea that women can just carry the fetus until it’s born and give it up for adoption so why do they need to have the right to terminate a pregnancy? So now we have a SC that says you can’t force people to get vaccinated but you can force a woman to carry an unwanted fetus…and that reveals this is not about abortion at all but about control of women and that’s it….and Sotomayor was blunt when she said overturning Roe would taint the court with the “stench” of politics that it may not survive…what about you John Roberts? What is going to be your legacy whey you overturn a ruling that 76% of the people in the US don’t want you to….and you will always be the chief justice that ruled over this travesty…and you can’t escape that….geez…
This makes me sick…
Well…another day, another school shooting, and this time right here in Michigan over by Detroit….some punk 15 year old took daddy’s pistol that he bought last Friday and decided to go kill his fellow students….but there is one strange thing…all of the victims are either black or young women…along with one teacher….3 dead…6 more in intensive care that may not make it and all because some hate filled little shit had access to daddy’s gun…and when they searched his house, they came out with three armloads of other guns that this moron had just laying around his house…and I am going to make a wild guess that this asshole’s father is a trump supporter and goes off on racist rants all the time…and has no respect for women at all…how else would this 15 year old get these ideas? They are taught all over this country by these right wing assholes…that only wimps talk things out and men take action…being a racist just doesn’t happen…kids pick up what they hear and see and when daddy is one, it’s a safe bet that the kid will be one….I’ve had enough of this crap…repeal the 2nd amendment…it has no use in modern times…
A little rant….
Well….you know, I wonder why every damn corporation has to be so greedy…just last week, the dollar store that I go to announced it was going to raise prices by 25% to 1.25 per item, and the reason why was to ensure the profitability of the company…yeah, right…the company, Dollar Tree, had profits of almost 2 billion dollars last year and paid it’s ceo over 11 million dollars….so my question as always is: how much is enough? Is it 3 billion or 10? If everything else stays the same, they will make another 500 million dollars in profit that will go straight through to the owners that really don’t need it and it will act like a tax for those of us that shop there…while I don’t have to, what happens to the people who are forced to shop at these types of stores because they can’t afford anywhere else? I wonder what would happen if just one of these assholes would say “hey, I’ve got enough…let’s hold the line to help our customers”….yeah, never going to happen…every one of them is just too damn greedy…geez…
Go to hell anti vaxxers…
Well…with the emergence of the new omicron variant, all I have to say is go to hell anti vaxxers…if it was for your stupidity, this mutation wouldn’t have happened since everyone infected so far has not been vaccinated…but, with the strain first identified in South Africa where they are having problems getting enough vaccine, it’s more of a logistic issue than truly anti vaccine ideology. That still doesn’t make it any better, though, since it appears that this new strain spreads even easier than the delta variant that took over the world in the last year….first reports coming out of SA are hopeful that the symptoms are milder than delta but it’s still early to know that for sure. One thing that is for sure is that the racist right wingers at all over it with one of the dumbest takes I have ever seen…I guess these morons think South Africa is the same as South America since fox news and the rest of the stupid party are yapping about South Africans coming across our southern border…yep, they think that people are walking across the Atlantic ocean to Texas I guess…I am still amazed at the ignorance of these people…by second grade I could tell the difference between Africa and South America…but these morons can’t….I would say I can’t believe it…but with these idiots, I can believe they will do or say anything…not even caring how this crap makes them look….geez…
