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…..

Chuck Grassley is a traitor…
Well…as the whitewash continues about the repubs involvement in the January 6th insurrection, the latest installment of that gaslighting was done just last week by Chuck Grassley on the floor of the senate when he spent an hour trying to normalize the idiot trump’s behavior that day as just “meetings” that all presidents do. He further went on say that every president has a right to talk to his advisors and that is all trump was doing that day and in the months after the election as trump and his minions plotted how to overturn the election. Yeah, Chuck…that was treason and no president has the right to try to overturn the results of an election…an election that was the most secure and accurate in the country’s history…and you trying to defend a traitor make you one, too….these attacks on the investigation are all part of the plan to make sure no one ever understands how deep the repub party and almost every damn elected repub was involved in this crime…and to make sure that trump is never held accountable for his role in it…but that is not going to happen….Nancy is going to get to the bottom of it and I hope that means the end of the repub party…and Merrick garland needs to prosecute every damn person involved…and lock them up….geez….
Stunning hypocrisy…
Well…I have never been a fan of Andrew Cuomo and with the latest revelations of his boorish behavior toward women that included unwanted touching that can be construed as sexual assault, I really believe he should resign and go away….but I also want the repubs who are calling for his resignation to shut the hell up. They have no leg to stand on to criticize Cuomo after they spent years ignoring the 50 women who accused the idiot trump of the same or worse behavior, and it is just stunning hypocrisy for any of them to open their mouths and comment at all….hey repubs, clean up your own house first before you stick your ugly noses into anyone else’s business…those of us on the left have already called for Cuomo’s resignation and for criminal charges if the facts warrant it…and it appears they do. After protecting a rapist for years and years, repubs have no moral ground to stand on, and this is just a purely political attack, they don’t give a damn about women at all and that is never going to change…geez…
More grifting…
Well…I still can’t believe it’s raining out here and that is keeping me off the bike today….at least this morning so I thought I’d come here for a second one before I make lunch…did you see the new grift that the idiot trump and his minions have cooked up? A ‘trump” card that makes you an official member of the cult that you can carry around with you…for what reason, I don’t know…but, I do know it’s going to cost a donation of some amount…probably 50 bucks and I wonder if they will make them expire so they can re-charge the rubes once a year just like they got caught doing last year when one time donations were turned into a weekly ones and emptied many of the rubes bank accounts. Oh, and these geniuses misspelled “official” on one of the cards by leaving out the second I…do any repubs know how to spell or how to proof read anything? Oh, and these “donations” can be used by idiot boy for any reasons…to pay personal expenses, buy cars, houses, etc. or spend it any way they want….so you know it’s just a grift…one good thing that will come of this is that as trump shakes down the rubes for his own purposes, they will have less to donate to other repubs and you know not one penny of what idiot boy collects will go to anyone but him….but still, I know some of these people will put these damn cards on lanyards and wear them around their necks just to “own” the libs…but what it will do is to help the sane of us identify the trumpites and stay the hell away from them…geez…
Maybe killing your voters is not a good thing…
Well..with the terrible news out of Florida where almost 25% of the new cases of covid are happening is a really bad thing, but to have the governor actively suppress all of the mitigation strategies like vaccinations, mask wearing, and social distancing is looking more and more like a bad political move, too. The latest polls from Florida have DeSantis trailing Charlie Crist by a few points so it looks like “deathsantis” letting the virus kill more and more of his voters is not too smart as he panders to the far right anti vaxxers while leaving everyone else to fend for themselves…and this time, there is no way for him to spin it that he “defeated” the virus with this surge that is much worse that last spring before the vaccines were in wide use….and a lot of the people who are getting sick in the wave are the un-vaccinated youngsters under 12 and how is that going to sound in a political ad for next year….”you have your freedom but you don’t have your kids anymore”, vote Desantis….what an incompetent piece of crap….geez…
Stupid repub of the day…
Well…gee, I guess no one could have seen this coming…after the right wing asshole governors got laws passed that prevent mask mandates, I think one of them, Asa Hutchinson of Arkansas, is having second thoughts on the bill he just signed since his state is one of the hot spots of the revived pandemic….and now he is whining to the repubs that passed the law that they have to come back in a special session and repeal the law so most of the kids in his state won’t get sick and possibly die when the go back to school. Folks, this is what happens when politics replaces science in public health decisions….and this guy was pandering to the far right morons who won’t get vaccinated or wear masks but the virus doesn’t care and most people who are dying right now are the un-vaccinated, and it is a shame that most of them are kids up to 12 years old and these morons don’t care and won’t protect them by being vaccinated…so, the next time anyone says that the repubs are pro-life, just call bullshit on that idea…they are pro life until a fetus is born, after that you are on your own….
Delusion, thy name is trump…
Well…cripes, the idiot in chief is still delusional and is taking all of his cronies with him…they are still having “cabinet” meetings and “making plans and working hard” to quote the ex-chief of staff meadows…trump, working hard? Ha, ha…it is to laugh to quote Daffy Duck….idiot boy has never worked hard in his life and the only reason he is doing anything at all it to keep bilking the rubes out of their cash…and that’s it…since he discovered the group of morons still willing to believe his lies and he can raise 60 million dollars just by keeping them worked up and sending out a few e-mails, do you think he would ever do anything but that again? I guess he is in the endorsement business now but he is not very good at that either since the first two candidates that he put his considerable weight behind have lost their elections….and let’s not forget all of the lawsuits/criminal charges that are coming from SDNY and all over the country…one funny thing to remember, even after raising all that cash, idiot boy is still stiffing rudy and not paying any of his legal bills…and rudy is reported to be almost broke…couldn’t happen to a bigger asshole….geez
Now they’re just trying to kill people…
Well…in any other time, a governor like DeSantis would be in jail for his negligence and outlawing of any techniques to try to mitigate the spread of covid in Florida…and all that in the state that is awash in the delta variant and has almost 25K new cases every day….more than 20% of the total in the entire US. But, not now…he still gets away with forbidding mask mandates for school children so young they can’t get the vaccine along with the teachers who will be teaching them that can’t be required to be vaccinated…I wonder how many of those kids he will murder? Weeks ago, even with the poor showing of Florida in the first two waves with thousands and thousands of Floridians dead from his inaction….this idiot has been crowing that he “defeated” the virus and he didn’t need no stinkin’ mask mandates to do it….but it is all smoke and mirrors where he just stopped reporting all the cases and deaths so no one could check him on his lies…and he continues to lie about how bad it is in Florida with almost a thousand people dying each day from delta…but he is happily running around the country running for president while the people of Florida die…but, I guess that is a badge of honor for the modern repub party…after all, more than 50% of repubs still say they won’t get vaccinated…and this clown just sits there grinning as he kills…geez…
This is big…
Well….this just came across the news a few minutes ago….the DOJ has ruled that the House ways and means committee has the right to the idiot trump’s tax returns….yep, the loser loses another one when Bill Baar is not there to protect him….I’m not sure what this really means at this point but they can now give them to their staff and their accountants can now pore over them to see where he cheated on them….whether or not the House can make a criminal referral, I’m not sure, but whatever is in them can now be released by the committee if they so choose….and that could be the final nail that keeps idiot boy from running again if idiot boy is not indicted by NYC…can’t wait to hear the loser rant about this one…
The new policy is to ignore them…
Well…it appears that there is a new dem strategy tha is being played out int he House right now…and that is to ignore the repubs completely…and I think that Nancy started it when she did not let McCarthy appoint the bomb throwers that he uses to disrupt every damn committee and even the two impeachments….and she called McCarthy a moron yesterday for opposing the mask mandates to try to stem the uncontrolled spread of the delta variant in the House…she wouldn’t have to do that if the dam repubs would get vaccinated…all of the dems have but at least half of the repub reps aren’t and that is a recipe for disaster in any enclosed space right now….and it appears that even though Michigan is doing good against the delta, mask mandates are coming back even for the vaccinated and I am pissed about that…how long do we have to shut down our lives just because a bunch of right wing assholes refuse to be vaccinated? How long do we have to let these pricks screw up this country with their delusional bullshit? I really have had enough of coddling these morons…how about we exclude these idiots from normal life until they are vaccinated…okay, this one veered off course but that happens sometimes…at least I wrote something….
