Well…finally, the SC today told Lindsey Graham that he has to testify to the grand jury that is investigating the attempts to overturn the results of the 2020 election in Georgia…and it wasn’t just the idiot trump doing it..ole lindsey called the SoS there, too, and asked if they could “look at” certain absentee ballots that are detrimental to trump’s election…and those certain ballots were all from a minority area of Georgia where it was almost a certainty that the majority of votes there were for Biden…so poor lindsey…you’re going to have to pay for your un-American bullshit and the sooner you and the rest of the maga assholes are gone the better…geez…

57 Russian bots…
Well…when ole elon said that nothing would change on twitter after he took over, he was either stupid or lying…since he took over last Friday, I’ve had 57 Russian bots follow me when I had a total of about 8 followers who were real people before…and there is really no reason for anyone to follow me on twitter, I don’t post there very often and when I do, it something about music or riding the bike or some such nonsense that it would not interest anyone but me…but now I have over 60 followers and the funny think is the pictures they have attached to the accounts are all good looking women…kind of a clue to the fact that they are Russian bots. So, again ole elon is doing Russia’s work for it by cutting the content moderation and the bot detectors back to the point that most of twitter is going to be bots, not anyone you want to hear from…and that will mean that Russian disinformation and lies about our elections is going to explode over the next week…basically making twitter useless…good job elon…geez…
It’s bullshit, twitter has changed…
Well…you know, I had to laugh when ole elon tried and tried to convince people that twitter wouldn’t change when he took it over…but it has already…I used to get a lot of topics for my political stuff from the news feed I had set up on there but as soon as elon took over, my entire feed disappeared…every person I followed, every news site I read was gone and I’ve spent the past couple of days trying to recreate it but it’s not the same…there used to be surprises every day from random websites that ended up in my feed, but that doesn’t happen after elon…it used to be surprising when their algorithm saw what I was interested in and found other sites that fit right in…like music users that would end up reminding me of music that I had forgotten so I could go find it again and listen to it…and the right wing bullshit and lies that are now allowed on the site when moderators used to kill that crap is inching me ever closer to just saying the hell with it and deleting my username and trying to find somewhere else to get my news and a few smiles every day…and a lot of the lies are from elon himself since he is a maga asshole who just loves trump…if there was ever a good reason to tax the shit out these billionaires, this is it…they are being allowed to ruin this country and steal everything that is not nailed down…if there is anyone out there who enjoys alternatives to twitter, please let me know…I’ve had enough…
The repubs did this….
Well…I’m sure you’ve read by now that a maga asshole attacked Nancy Pelosi’s husband with hammer in their home Friday, putting him in the hospital with a skull fracture and brain damage…and this criminal was looking to kill Nancy and was radicalized by the repubs incessant pushing of the big lie that trump won the election and that Nancy and the rest of the dems are pedophile groomers who eat children and that Nancy is the ringleader….and the repubs are so bad that not one of them said anything about this attack, nothing, not condolences, no condemnation for the attempted murder and even went on to attack Pelosi and her husband while he was in surgery with the possibility of dying. Now, this is exactly where the repubs knew this was going as they rile their crowd of troglodyte morons every damn day…this is what they want…they can’t convince anyone to vote for them on policy since they have none but tax cuts for the rich so they cause crime and then blame it on the dems…and the moron voters eat it up even when most of these voters are old and on SS that they are going to take away…fear is the only thing they have and the problem is it works for them and has for decades…so don’t listen to them…the only crime that is up is caused by the repubs…and that is a fact…geez…
Let’s wave our stupidity like a flag…
Well…just when I think the repubs can’t get and dumber, they do shit like sit out all night “watching” ballot drop boxes for some damn reason…what the reason is, I don’t know…are they trying to stop people from shoveling millions of ballots into them? Do they think that sitting there in their cosplay camo with their guns is going to intimidate anyone from dropping off a ballot? God, these guys are dumb and have been spoon fed the stuffing drop boxes lie by fox news, Oan, and the other right wing lie sites that they exclusively listen to and now they are sitting out there in the middle of the night thinking they are “protecting the vote”…hey guys, I have a clue for you…do you remember stamps? You know those little things that you put on the corner of an envelope and that allows you to drop a letter, postcard, or even a ballot into the US mail…are you going to watch all of those, too…you are some dumb sons of a bitches…at least you’re not shooting up some school somewhere…and that’s a good thing…
Doctor shortages are coming to red states…
Well…with the Dobbs decision from the SC that killed Roe, the intended consequence is that all red states have passed laws or had them on the books that would ban abortion…and some of them have already passed laws banning teaching doctors how to perform them…and that has had the unintended consequence of setting up a conflict with the organizations that set what doctors need to be trained in to be able to have an MD…meaning that doctors trained in red states will only be able to practice in red states, and that is causing an exodus of top MD candidates out of the red states…but it is not only limited to those choosing OB/GYN as their speciality but a recent poll shows that almost 70% of those heading into med school, no matter what they are specializing in won’t learn or practice in a red state that bans abortion….and what that means is that there is a massive doctor shortage coming to red states since most doctors want be able to live and work anywhere they want and that means they need to be accredited to do that. With their religious zealotry, the repubs are setting their citizens up for substandard care if they can get any care at all…but I’m sure they don’t care…after all, if they did they wouldn’t have taken rights away from more than 50% of the population in their states…and this goes along with the closures of hundreds of hospitals in red states that are closing since they refused the money that comes with Medicaid expansion that would have saved them….so I guess it doesn’t matter that they won’t have any doctors…they won’t have any hospitals to work in anyway….just frickin brilliant, repubs….
This is how you tell…
Well…with the explosion of political ads running up to the election on the 8th, I really need to give you a little primer on how to decipher them and make them easier to understand…it’s very simple…if the ad is attacking a dem, it’s a lie…and if the ad is supporting a repub, it’s also a lie..see, that’s how easy it is….so don’t be confused or let some repub lie filled advertising sway your vote…you know one true thing, and that is the dems work for the people to make their lives better and deal with society’s problems while the repubs only work to make people’s lives worse as they give the country away to their big donors and take rights away from everyone but their base…and you can take them at their word for that…they’ve already taken the rights to privacy away from women and they are now going to gut SS and Medicare to give tax cuts to the rich..those are facts that no amount of lies in advertising is going to change…so tune out the ads and vote with that one truth in your mind…the dems will make things better, and the repubs will make things worse…that’s all you need to know….geez…
Any PA friends out there?
Well…have some time on my hands this morning with the temp dropping to 30 outside right now and that is way too damn cold to go out and work on the leaves…so I thought I’d come here to talk to my PA friends about the senate race there…the other night, there was the one and only debate between the carpetbagger Oz, and John Fetterman and if you listen to the modern media, the only story coming out of it was that Fetterman, who is recovering from a stroke just a month or so ago is not able to do the job as senator since he has symptoms of the stroke still and at times haltingly speaks and takes time to formulate answers…now, is the media trying to do the repubs work for them? I would focus on the policy that each candidate has put forward, and on that it was shown that Oz is just another repub who wants to take rights away from women in PA and showed it with this comment from the debate…when asked if women’s healthcare choices should be only between her and her doctor, Oz responded that the choice should be “between the woman, her doctor, and local government officials” yeah, you heard that right…for the most intimate medical decisions that a woman can make, Oz wants her to have to go to “local government officials” to get approval to save her life if there is a problem with a pregnancy or even if there’s not….now, PA men, how would you like it if you had to go to “local government officials” to get approval for a colonoscopy that could save your life? Or get approval from these same officials if you want to get a vasectomy or be treated for an STI? Do you have to bring one of these officials with you to your doctor’s appointment? Yeah, I know I’m using a little hyperbole but there is only one person in this race that will protect the privacy of all Americans and that is John Fetterman….and he will help to restore the rights of over half of this country to what they were under Roe…and Oz won’t…it’s that clear…vote Fetterman for a better US….geez….
Remember this before you vote…
Well…with the repubs screaming their heads off about gas prices and inflation and trying to pin it all on the dems, you just have to remember this before you vote…they were given the chance to attack the main cause of inflation, price gouging by corporations, especially oil companies whose profit are up by almost 100% over the past year, and every damn one of them voted against doing anything about it…this shows they don’t care at all about any of this…the only thing they want to use the inflation that is hurting their constituents for is to attack the dems. Have your heard any policy plan they have to deal with inflation? Nope, didn’t think so because they don’t care about it…just like they don’t care about doing anything for the people…they just want power to reward their big donors with another tax cut…and these same donors are pouring hundreds of million of their money into these races to elect more repubs…and there is something wrong when a rich guy can give 30 million to elect repubs and get a 250 million dollar tax cut…I think it’s become the new investment for most of these folks…buy a legislative seat, get money back…and that has got to end….and the only way that will happen is to elect more dems…so vote..and not for repubs…geez…
I’ll bet Putin didn’t see this coming…
Well…yeah, I’m running late this afternoon getting to this one…had lunch with T that turned into a laugh fest and lots of fun an just got home a bit ago…after reading an article about natural gas supplies in Europe and that the price is crashing, all I can say is I’ll bet Putin didn’t see this coming. Since the start of Putin’s illegal invasion of Ukraine, he has used the threat of cutting off natural gas to try to keep Europe and the rest of the world from supporting Ukraine…saying it was going to be “dark, cold winter” for them this year…but then, something happened and natural gas storage in the EU is at almost 94% filled which would keep the area going right through the winter even if they never got another btu…and you have to remember that Germany used to get 60% of it’s gas from Russia before the invasion happened and now it is at zero…what happened is they turned to other sources like the US and have built new LNG terminals across Europe to be able to handle the ships hauling it…and, unlike the US, the EU is undergoing a crash program for increasing renewable energy like solar and wind and even the weather is cooperating with warmer than normal temps so far this fall and winter….so now that leaves ole putie selling his gas to India and China at a 50% discount and Russia will be even more broke than it is…and all the blame is on the moron who launched this invasion…I wonder when the generals and oligarchs will get tired of this crap and say bye, bye to ole putie? It can’t come too soon…geez…
