Well…I think any of us who have followed Joe Biden at all in his career would have expected more of the same style of centrist incremental politics that he has practiced his whole life…til now. His 8 months in office have shown us a bold Biden, one who has ended the war in Afghanistan without listening to the people who got and kept us there for 20 years….an now he is pushing for 45% of all of our energy to come from solar in the next 10 years…and the one thing we aren’t seeing is him apologizing for any of his actions or trying to cajole people to understand…just yesterday, he gave a speech saying: “we’re going to protect our vaccinated workers from unvaccinated co-workers” as he announce a vaccine mandate for all companies with more than 100 workers…and he wasn’t done there…he went after the stupid repubs who are trying to get people killed with their laws against mask mandates and vaccine mandates for schools and bluntly called out the repubs who are trying to take money from schools for protecting children and promised he had their backs…and he made it abundantly clear that he is done with the bullshit repubs who whine and whine and do nothing but make things worse…and the refreshing thing to me is that there seems to be little political calculation in any of this…it’s just Joe doing the right thing for the right reasons and that is the kind of politician I can get behind…you go Joe!

Biden has done nothing to help people?
Well…I guess Americans are just stupid or ignorant or both…according to a poll that came out in the past few days, over 50% of Americans believe that Joe Biden has done nothing to help their lives get better…cripes, do these 50% have amnesia? Do they not remember the 1400 dollar check they got earlier in the year? I wonder if many of these folks have kids? Do they not recognize the 300 dollar monthly credit they get for each kid? Or how about getting vaccines into the arms of almost 200 million Americans? Or the billions of dollars to fix up schools and help local school districts deal with the pandemic? Or the expansion of the SNAP program that made many more people eligible for food aid? I could go on and on about all of the things this administration has done to make life better but I wonder why no one else knows these things? There are many other things that are in the pipeline that will continue to make life better for working people and we retirees…how about expansion of Medicare to cover dental, vision, and hearing care? I thing the dems have a messaging problem and need to get over it…they need to make sure that people know what they are doing for them and be proud of it….they are making this country better for the little guy and that is a good thing…geez…
Keep taking that horse medicine….
Well….a news story that just came out today made me laugh a bit with the irony of it….it appears that taking horse de-wormer to treat covid is not such a good idea…a study that was done a few months back showed that men who took the drug lost most of their fertility…yep, that’s right, the idiots who are flocking to this treatment have less sperm and most of it is mutated so they can’t reproduce anymore…you know, I just thought of Charles Darwin when I read that article and think it just perfect that these morons will have a hard time having any more little idiots…and with them dying in droves because they didn’t get the vaccine, it thins the herd quite a bit and that is just what this country needs…you can’t reason with these morons so the only way to get through to them is if they die….and I won’t shed one damn tear when they do…geez…
Why isn’t McCarthy in jail?
Well….look, I know that the repubs don’t think that the law applies to them but, damn, is Merrick Garland in on it, too? Just last week, when the House January 6th select committee sent letters to all of the big telecoms telling them to preserve any and all records having to do with the January 6th attack, Kevin McCarthy blatantly threatened them with retribution if they cooperated with the committee…and just yesterday another 13 of the repub conspirators sent a letter to the same telecom companies threatening that they will not be allowed to operate in the US if they cooperated with the committee…now, isn’t obstructing a congressional investigation a crime? Yep, it is and this goes to obstruction of justice, too, and now we have Merrick Garland sitting on his hands when the DOJ should be on this right now to squash these little pricks who are so concerned because these records will probably show that all of the 140 odd repubs who voted to not certify the election results were in on the attack. If Garland won’t bring charges against these traitors, then he needs to resign and let someone who will protect this country do it…it needs to happen today since every damn day these assholes continue to get away with breaking the law, the more they will do it….geez…
Let’s talk about Texas…
Well…I know I talked a bit about the new Texas abortion elimination laws yesterday but I didn’t touch on the part that makes vigilantes of every citizen of Texas and allows them to sue anyone taking part in the abortion for 10,000 dollars…even a taxi driver that can’t know what the women in his or her cab is going to do…or even women that talks to their friends about having an abortion….now the right wing Taliban on the court have said that it’s all peachy keen with them to have the law go into effect right now since it is a “new and very complex law” and would take too long to study it…and this has never happened in the history of the court, they usually put it on hold until they have time to study it and judge it’s constitutionality but these 5 morons said hey, we don’t care if it’s unconstitutional…lets just let Texas try this out for a while…who cares if it infringes on the 1st amendment and many others…it’s just too complex for us to figure out. So this is why the filibuster has to go right now and we need to expand the court by at least 4 justices and Biden can pick real ones that will follow the law and the SC would no longer be the right wing heaven the repubs just love….geez…
Hypocrisy on steroids…
Well…damn, I never thought the right wingers could get worse but then two things happened that revealed them to have hypocrisy on steroids. With the passing of Texas’s new law outlawing all abortions after 6 weeks and the SC choosing to not intervene essentially saying that the state now owns women’s bodies and can control them any way they want…and the right wing protests against vaccine mandates that have appropriated the women’s rights slogan of “my body, my choice”….I can feel the tsunami of hypocrisy from here…I am confused about all of this…no, I guess I’m not…it’s the right wing evangelicals who have turned Texas into Afghanistan after the Taliban took over….and it is eerie how much the proclamations of the Taliban about controlling women and taking away their rights reads just like the Texas law banning abortion…I guess religious fanaticism is the same no matter what religion is doing it….and it is sick that in 2021 women citizens can have their rights taken away from them by a tiny minority of religious zealots who vote every time while our side has to have to perfect candidate of we sit elections out…that is what gave the American Taliban the state of Texas and the SC that thinks it’s perfectly fine for women to have less rights than the rest of us….geez…
More calls for violence…
Well…the repub party has turned into a thug mob whose only purpose is to promote violence and lies. In just the past couple of days, we have the repub county executive candidate from Pennsylvania saying the he will take “20 strong men” and go to any school board that mandates masks to protect children and forcibly remove them if they won’t resign…oh, and this guys name is Steve Lynch and I have a little info for him….doing what he says he is going to do would involve multiple felonies and would open him up to federal charges for interfering with an elected official along with civil suits from those he tried to intimidate…so this blowhard would spend the rest of his life in jail and would be broke if he ever got out…but this leads right into the other repub insurrectionist, Madison Cawthorn who persists in calling the criminals who attacked the capitol on Jan 6 “political prisoners” and told a group of his thug supporters that he is working on “busting out” these criminals and that if they are not released “blood will flow” and his supporters cheered at the threat of violence…I have had enough of these thugs lying about January 6th and the “stolen” election….and the overt threats of violence should land them in jail or at least result in sanctions from repub “leadership”…but it won’t and that’s the problem…just like the noisemakers out here, there are no consequences to their criminal actions so they just keep escalating with people ending up dead….and Jan 6th will happen again….geez…
These people will believe anything…
Well…not sure if you’ve been following the latest bit of idiocy that is going on with the right wing anti vaxxers but it is head shakingly stupid and makes me believe these idiots will believe anything….over the past couple of weeks there have been multiple stories about people buying and ingesting worm medicine that is made for horses and cows….yep, they won’t get the vaccine because they “don’t know what’s in it” but they will take a medicine made for horses that is toxic to the body and can destroy your intestines and make you even more stupid just because some guy on facbook says his brother in law said it works…and now there are thousands of calls to poison control hotlines from people who get sick from eating this stuff…again, that is made for killing worms in horses….not viruses in people. These people are so damn stupid and I think facebook has a responsibility to remove the thousands of posts and pages that push this stuff on these ignorant morons…but maybe this will clean up the gene pool some….geez…
Joe biden woke up this morning…repubs think he should resign for it..
Well…I am just amazed at what the repubs think Joe Biden should resign for….no, not really…those hypicritic idiots are all over the news baying about Afghanistan and how screwed up the withdrawal is so Biden should resign…funny, they never mentioned resigning for the previous guy when he committed treason against the US, or extorted an ally to fake some dirt on Joe…or the fact that over 100,00 people have already been evacuated and we are getting down to the last of them a week before the deadline….if idiot boy had done that Hannity and the rest of them would be proposing he get a Nobel peace prize. Look, these morons are going to keep calling for Joe’s resignation if he wakes up in the morning or has lunch…and the news has to treat it that way….as the ridiculous bullshit that it is….geez….
Eric Prince is still a war criminal…
Well…it appears that Eric Prince has a new scam he’s running out of Qatar…he’s renting planes and charging people 7400 dollars to get them out Afghanistan…you can guess that whenever there is suffering in the world, ole Eric will be there trying to make money from it…oh, and let’s not forget what his Blackwater thugs did in Iraq when they murdered more than 20 Iraqis just because they were scared…and that makes ole Eric a war criminal…I wonder who is responsible for him even being able to use the US controlled airport there? This is just bullshit that he is not in jail somewhere….he has been connected to so many sketchy things including damn near every scandal in the idiot trump years that you know he moved to Qatar just to avoid prosecution since they have no extradition treaty with the US….I think…another one of those born rich assholes who think they can do whatever they want and the law doesn’t apply to them….geez…
