Well…let’s get back to the real world and talk about the Georgia senate elections for a bit…as you can tell by the title, it looks like we won both of them and that means that moscow mitch is no longer going to be able to continue to damage this country with his packing of the courts with unqualified right wing judges and obstruction of the relief package that is needed to get this country to recover from the covid pandemic. We can all thank trump for this great turn of events with his bullshit rants about voting fraud and even discouraging repub voters from turning out. This means that Joe will get his cabinet picks confirmed, he will get tons of judges confirmed and we may even get DC statehood which would give us two more dem senators and shut the repubs out for long time with the favorable senate map for 2022 for the dems. So, bad day on the house front but a good day for our country….and I can take that…

Playing politics with people’s lives…
Well…cripes, who didn’t see this one coming? After the dems in the house passed legislation that would give eligible people 2,000 dollars in relief to keep people from starving and being evicted, once the bill was sent to the senate, moscow mitch just had to start to playing politics with it by adding all kinds of amendments to it that would force the dems to vote against it so he can say “see, it was the dems that didn’t vote for it”…and try to make it their fault that people starve. This is what that rat bastard does…he does not care one whit about anyone but the billionaires that buy elections for him and he really does get his jollies out of hurting people…this is why we need to win both Georgia seats in the runoff next week…then moscow mitch won’t have the power to kill people with his bullshit and maybe we can then get out of this recession without having to listen to his crap anymore…geez…
How terrible are the repubs?
Well…sitting here watching Man U play in Austria in an empty stadium and it is really weird that there is just the noise of the players and coaches…but that’s not what this is about…did you see the debacle of a speech that the idiot trump did last night? I sure didn’t but I read enough about it to know it was the worst speech in presidential history….and the financial markets thought that, too with the dow futures market falling over a thousand points while the speech was going on…and that carnage continued this morning with the dow circuit breakers kicking in and suspending trading about 10 minutes after the market opened and losses hit 8%…it continued to fall until it was down almost 2,500 points and has recovered a bit but it is still down by 1,800 points at 2 pm this afternoon…and you know about that “greatest of all time” stock market that the blowhard in chief has been crowing about? It has lost all of the gains since the idiot boy was installed by Putin…down almost 8,000 points just since Feb 12th…and what did the repubs in the senate do with this carnage and the potential death of hundreds of thousands of American lives? Moscow mitch scheduled a recess that they were supposed to leave on today but the public outcry shamed them into staying in Washington to work on the bills necessary to fund the coronavirus response…and here’s the really terrible part…they are so ideology driven that they just can’t help but try to put abortion restrictions into the bill that they know will be DOA in the House but they don’t care…they are fine with wasting time and killing real people so they can impose more restrictions on women’s lives…these assholes are going to be know as the murderers of millions if they keep playing their games…that is how terrible the repubs are…
Mitch the great strategist?
Well…I know there has been this mythology that has arisen around moscow mitch that he is this “great strategist” when it comes to him running the senate but why? When you control the entire thing and have 53 trump synchophents to support anything you tell them to do, what great strategy is needed…especially when all you have to do is say no? When has he taken a losing situation and turned it into a win? Or when has he been in the minority and gotten what he wanted? This is just a tired shorthand lie that the media is telling about him…what makes him so great? Blocking Merrick Garland? When all he had to do is say a petulant “no” and the vote on him didn’t happen? Or even today, when he is blocking calling witnesses or getting documents from the idiot trump…why is that such “great strategy”? In the short term it may keep trump from getting convicted but it is going to lose them the WH and the senate in the fall…is that part of his “great strategy”? It may even lead to him losing his own seat in the senate since over 70% of the people in this country want to see the witnesses and hear from them first hand…and the dems are crushing the repubs in fundraising partially due to ole mitch’s shenanigans trying to protect trump…another great strategy? All I have to say is keep it up moscow mitch…you and idiot boy just might do what the dems haven’t been able to…destroy the repub party and save this country….
This is what Schiff needs to do…
Well…all of you people who bitched about Nancy Pelosi hanging on to the articles of impeachment until moscow mitch laid out how he plans to coverup trump’s crimes, just take a look at what mitch is doing now…planning to have only two days of presentations that will end up running into the wee hours of the morning, no tv coverage, no witnesses and no documents…so now, the ball is in Adam Schiff’s court and he needs to immediately subpoena Bolton and the rest of them and make them testify to the House…and whether or not this will lead to additional impeachment articles is not the point…the point is that if all of the repub senators lied when they took the oath to be “fair and impartial”, the only recourse for getting at the truth for the American people is to restart hearings in the house and get the subpeonas into the courts, all the while making sure that every damn news organization knows that 70% of the American people want witnesses and documents in the senate trial. Ole moscow thinks that this coverup trial is going to blow over and everything will be just peachy but we’re just getting started…and mitch and his co-conspirators are going to pay dearly for this blatant attack on this country…you listening Steyer and Bloomberg? You want to spend some money to hurt these guys? This is it…hammer it every day that the repubs hate this country and are a bunch of cheaters…and let’s get some of our folks on the news to reinforce how corrupt moscow mitch is…and do it now…
They’re not even trying to hide their interference…
Well…with reports over the weekend that Russia has hacked the Ukrainian gas company Burisma that was in the center of the trumped up charges of corruption against Joe Biden’s son, we can see that Russia is at it again, trying to throw the election to trump. And, this time, they are not even trying to hide that it is the Russian intelligence service GRU who is doing the hacking since Moscow Mitch has made it clear that he is not going to do a damn thing to stop them. Mitch won’t even allow election security bills to come to the floor of the senate, even though there are many of them that have been passed by the House and Mitch has been told by the IC that the measures are critical to keeping the Russians from installing trump for a second term. I am little puzzled by the hacking of Burisma looking for dirt on the Biden’s since we saw in 2016 that actual evidence was not necessary for the Russians to be successful in getting Fox news and the entire repub party to spread the lies about Hillary that hurt her campaign…but, it may be that just the announcing of Russian hacking of Burisma will be enough for the fevered brains of the trump cult to just “know” that there must be something there or why would the Russians waste time hacking them? Sowing doubt is one of the favorite ways that Russian intelligence disrupts elections around the world and to think the repubs would want to give up that advantage…of having an entire foreign government helping you win elections is living in a dream world…they are all evil traitors led by evil traitors….after we win in the fall, there will be no more protecting these criminals by refusing to cooperate with investigations…and the legacies of all of these traitors will be burned to the ground…as they deserve…
Damn, I was right about something…
Well….okay, I don’t get to say this too often but it feels good when I can….Damn, I was right about something…after the impeachment votes last night, Nancy Pelosi came out and alluded to something that I wrote about earlier…that she may delay sending the impeachment articles to the senate until she is sure that there will be a fair trial there…and by fair she means that not one rigged by moscow mitch to guarantee that the idiot trump is not removed even though he is an admitted criminal. I know she couched it in more vague language that I would have, saying that she needs to know what the playing field looked like before she could put together the team to present the prosecution, but Adam Schiff made it abundantly clear that moscow mitch is rigging the trial and that will be a consideration whether or not the articles will be sent. Now, I don’t know how much leverage this gives Nancy but the idea that they can keep hammering moscow mitch in the press for the corrupt asshole he is must be appealing since they have little else they can do. We’ll see if moscow mitch doubles down on his corruption this morning since he is having a press conference this morning at 9:30….that should be good…
