Well….this one is going to be a little jumbled since I have a few things I wan to talk about….first, just as I predicted, the repubs are back in their districts after Biden signed the infrastructure bill touting all it’s going to do for them…conveniently lying about the fact that none of them voted for it…or I should say not many voted for it…there were a few who participated in writing the bill and then voted for it and I thank them for that…and the response of repub leadership? You can guess this one…they want to censure all of the repubs who voted to help the people of the US and get started rebuilding the crumbling bridges, roads, buildings, and other infrastructure….and most of them will be primaried by far right nutjobs who will probably win and then lose in the general…kinda smart, huh? Explain this to me….consumer sentiment is in the low 30′s even with consumer spending reaching all time high….and the economy added an additional 700,000 jobs from June to September and real wages are up as well…so what is making people think the economy sucks? Could it be that the media doesn’t know how to cover good news anymore? Sure looks that way when you see the headlines screaming about inflation and how long it took to get the infrastructure bill passed…but it did pass but not much was written about what the benefits are going to be for the country….and that is wrong….geez….

Dems getting things done…
Well…over the past few days, we have seen what can happen when a political party that actually wants to do things for the American people get things done…just yesterday, or this morning at 3:41 am, the dems got the 3.5 trillion dollar bill that will benefit everyone but the rich and corporations and that came after getting a skinny infrastructure bill passed in the senate…and will be followed by the John Lewis voting rights bill that will nullify the 400 repub sponsored voter suppression bills that have been passed on the “big lie” of voter fraud in the 2020 election. All of this in the first 7 months of the Biden administration and with little of no help from the repubs…okay, a few of them voted yes on the infrastructure bill but then went right back to being the assholes they are on every other measure and not one of them voted for any of the other bills that were put up this week…that’s to be expected since the repubs don’t give a damn about anyone but the rich….and you’ve heard me bitch about that before but it’s still true….let’s hope the dems keep the pressure on and finish all this work…personally it will mean I can get the thousands of dollars of dental work done I need with the expansion of Medicare and only be out a couple of hundred in co-pays….so get it done dems…..
