Well…as time goes on, I am getting happier with Joe and how he’s handling the presidency….after repairing the broken vaccine system that the idiot trump left him and getting almost 150 million shots in arms by today, and then going big on the covid recovery plan to the tune of 1.9 trillion dollars ( that I still haven’t seen a dime of by the way) and now starting to work on infrastructure that has been ignored since the moronic tax cutting that started with Reagan, Joe is showing a spine behind that smile…especially when it comes to trying to get the repubs to come along and help with getting this country going again….I wonder why they are still trying to play by the obstruction playbook when the entire country wants to get things going, including almost 60% of repubs? Just the other day, Joe made the point to them that they could do something good for the country by working with him to repair the crumbling roads, bridges and electrical grid…along with helping more people who are struggling with child care and the new normal of working from home that requires high speed internet everywhere across the country….or he will do it with just the dems so get off your hands and pitch in in that folksy way that you just can’t get mad at…although the repubs are doing their best to do just that, playing to their ever shrinking base. It’s pretty damn nice that we have a functioning government again with competent people running it….but the repubs will never admit that….they are just too stupid or cynical to get onboard…geez…

Boycott everything Georgia…
Well…if you thought that the repubs could get any worse with voter suppression, man, you were wrong. Just yesterday, the repub dominated legislature and the governor, Brian Kemp, signed into law a bill that would make the architects of the old Jim Crow voter suppression laws green with envy…after minorities and suburban whites came out and voted en masse to elect two dems to the senate powered by mail in voting, the repubs couldn’t have any of that so the bill signed into law does away with all of the legal methods that the dems used to make themselves heard…and these assholes even made it illegal for people to bring food and water to people who are waiting in line for hours to vote due to the previous voter suppression tactics that the repubs installed but the dems worked their butts off to still exercise their right to vote. Now imagine that…their fellow Georgian citizens working their butts off to figure out how to navigate the previous maze of voter suppression and cast their legal votes now have to stand in the hot sun without the relief that a bottle of water or a snack would bring just because these white racists don’t have anything to offer to any Georgian so they need to make sure they can’t vote or they will lose the white supremicist domination of the state. So now, we must boycott any business that is based in Georgia to make sure that these businesses, who invariably donate to repubs, pay for this support of the revival of Jim Crow that discriminates against those who don’t vote for repubs…I’m going to start with any product that is produced by the Coca Cola company and I will not buy another thing from Home
Depot until they put pressure on these repubs to repeal this un-American law….how can this be happening in 2021?
Doesn’t this look like a bribe?
Well…I guess those of us who live in the ethical real world thought this deal was fishy from the start…but repubs were perfectly fine with it…damn, buried the lede again…okay, let’s back up…you remember last year when moscow mitch mcconnell spearheaded the removal of sanctions from the Russian aluminum company Rusal in return for the bribe of Rusal building an aluminum plant in Kentucky? The owner of Rusal, Oleg Derispaska, was under sanctions since he is part of the Russian organized crime families that support Putin in everything he does, including throwing the 2016 election to the idiot trump. So now, Rusal has pulled out of the project and you can guess why…moscow mitch is no longer in charge of the senate and the idiot trump can no longer give Putin everything he wants so this bribe will no longer work…and the Russians have cut their losses in Kentucky and are going home with the sanctions still lifted which is what they wanted anyway….they really had no intention of ever investing 200 million dollars in Kentucky and they either duped ole Mitch or he was in on it and knew that dangling the jobs from this vaporware project would help him get re-elected even if not one of them ever materialized. Now this would be a good time to start an investigation of how this all came about to go along with the investigation of mitch’s wife who used her government position at the Commerce department to help her family shipping company in China…what a damn corrupt family….geez…
trump’s cronies are still sabotaging Biden…
Well…now I know why I haven’t received any of the latest relief checks and it is worse than anyone can imagine….when the relief package was passed back in early March, even two weeks before it was passed, the IRS asked the Social Security administration to provide them with information on those of us who live on SS and who don’t make enough to file a tax return…and the trump cronies who are still in charge for some reason decided to try to hurt Biden by ignoring the request from the IRS and not sending the requested info that the IRS would use to issue checks to those of us who most need these relief checks. After 5 weeks and under pressure from the media and, of course, only dems in congress, the SSA lied that they would provide the info yesterday but not a bit of it has shown up at the IRS….and the SSA commissioner, Andrew Saul, has stopped even showing up for work so the letter to him was probably not even read since no one can find this asshole. So now my question is “why haven’t this guy and his deputy who is his right hand man in this sabotage been fired?” At least I know why I haven’t gotten the 1400 dollar check, but what about the 600 dollar on that I had to file a tax return for? That still hasn’t shown up when turbotax said it would be here by the end of March since I filed in February…I guess there are still 5 days in March that it could get here but I’m not holding my breath…crap…
Don’t they have anything better to do?
Well…with the latest manufactured controversy that is spreading like a fungus across the right…the thought comes to my mind..”don’t they have anything better to do?” This time…just like the other thousands of times, the right is going off the rails with the fact that Kamala Harris didn’t salute the soldiers who were standing guard at the foot of the stairs of AF2 when she was boarding…and they are going on and on that she doesn’t respect the military and is too aloof to perform that simple courtesy…hey right wing assholes, I’ve got news for you…VP Harris is a civilian and it is not proper for a civilian to salute or to return a salute from a military person…in every damn military code the only people who are supposed to salute are other military members in uniform but that doesn’t matter to the ignorant morons on the right…the Biden admin is so competent and scandal free that they spend their horrible lives trying to invent something, anything that would allow them to fuel the outrage meter that was a daily occurrance when the idiot trump was in office…so sorry assholes…she is right and you are just pathetic losers…try again….
Confiscate all the damn guns…
Well…when is it enough? How many damn people have to die from shootings here in the US before we do something about it? 20 more dead just this week and we don’t even get to absorb what happened in the last one before another one happens….and that is just too much. I think we truly need to start thinking about repealing the 2nd amendment since no one on the right will go along with even the popular, basic first steps to regulate who can buy a gun and what kind…so, let’s just buy back all of them and make guns illegal…okay, I don’t want to go that far but when AR-15’s have been used in almost every damn mass shooting over the past 5 years there is a reason…and that is you can get huge magazines and they are rapid fire…and will empty the mag just as fast as you can pull the trigger….and don’t give me the bullshit that they are necessary for “protection”…from what? The Taliban coming across the East Beltline? I’ve just had enough of the gun fetishists being so damn scared that they need to be armed everywhere and then the rest of us suffer the stress from seeing these idiots carrying guns around and not knowing if this is the time that the idiot goes off and starts shooting. If they won’t compromise, lets just get rid of all guns…no guns, no more mass murders…I’ve had enough…
Why shouldn’t DC be a state?
Well…with the hearings that are taking place in the house today on making DC the 51 st state, my question is “why shouldn’t DC be a state?” It has more population than Wyoming and they get a rep and two senators and get the right to vote for them…so why not DC? Since the district was formed in 1790, not one resident of the area has been allowed to vote for a rep or senator…they pay all the same taxes as the rest of the country but get no representation and they are ruled by congress who can overrule any laws passed by the city council…so, basically the residents have no say in how they are governed at all….and we know why repubs are so against statehood…the district is a majority black/brown area and the repubs are doing whatever they can to make sure that minorities can’t vote all across the country….and, with the prospect of the 51st state sending two dem senators to the senate, the repubs chances to take control of the senate in 2022 goes way down….but, this is all about fairness and one of the reasons we fought the revolutionary war…”no taxation without representation”…and that is just what is happening to those American citizens…so, I think this needs to happen…there is no reason why almost a million Americans should be treated differently than the rest of us….let’s get this done, dems…
Ted Cruz truly is a terrible person…
Well….after the repubs lost the two senate races in Georgia and others across the country, their response was not to ask why people weren’t buying what they are selling when it includes hate and misogyny…nope, they are pefectly happy to continue to have no policies that people want…or no policies at all other than a blind allegiance to the idiot trump and tax cuts for the rich….and their big takeaway from the huge turnout of voters both on the left and right is that they can’t let that happen again….so in state legislatures across the country their have been almost 300 bills that would make it harder for people to vote even though this last election was one of the most secure and accurate in the history of the country and the only purpose for these bills is to make sure dem voters can’t vote since it is the only way that repubs can win. The dems response to these bills is HR1 which would codify a minimum set of voting rules that states would have to adhere to such as any reason absentee voting, 15 days of early voting, election day registration, and other things that the repubs just hate…and now we get to ole Ted…last week, ted was caught on tape saying that if HR1 passes, the dems will control the government for a “hundred years” and we will have rampaging socialism that will ruin this country…all that just for making it easier to vote and taking the ability to gerrymander out of the hands of repubs…and, of course, cruz is lying his ass off when he told the group that “illegal aliens” will get the right to vote along with child molesters and rapists…and not one word about any policy that will help the American people like the dems passed recently, but just more and more of the terrible bullshit that spews out of ole ted’s mouth….this is what happens when the repubs have nothing to offer, no policy, and nothing else…just hate and white supremacy…and I do kind of like the idea if HR1 passes the dems will be in control for a hundred years…won’t happen but it is nice to contemplate…
He’s too boring?
Well…okay, I know I did one on this before and I don’t like to repeat myself since that feels like cheating…but damn, I laughed my butt off with comments from idiots on the right from the past few days that Biden is just “too boring” and not giving them anything to be outraged about like trump did for four years…and one far right moron, Dan Bongino, went so far as to say he thinks being boring is just a plot by Biden to lull people to sleep while he enacts a “radical” agenda…yeah, if he means by radical agenda one that helps most of America and not just the one percent and bringing competence an truth to government. One of the big complaints from all of the right wing media swamp is that Joe is not giving them anything to run like trump did all day and now they have to work for a change and they don’t like….they seem to think that the atrocity that was the government under trump was normal and they just can’t understand that someone really does have empathy and cares about more than taking credit for things he didn’t do and lying all the time…get used to it morons…eight more years….
This is what happens…
Well…damn, another mass murder, this time against Asian women in Georgia…this is what happens when you have the asshole trump going on and on about the “China virus” Kung flu” and the many many other racial slurs his filthy hole spouted over 4 years that were amplified by every damn part of the right wing media cesspool…6 Asian women are dead because some white asshole decided they weren’t paying enough attention to him so he’d get even by killing as many as he could find…and this goes along with the daily attacks on Asian Americans across this country that are up over 150% in the past year…and the worst part of it is the right wing Georgia sherriff who does a press conference and says that the murderer had a “bad day”….yeah nowhere near as bad as the dead you asshole…god, I just hate these goobers that are part of the good old boy networks that will do their best to excuse any action that is done by a white guy…it’s just a “bad day” that made him murder 6 Asian women…and it’s been revealed that this sheriff has been part of this Asian hatred, liking t-shirts that denigrated Asians and making a joke about it. I’ve had damn enough of these assholes who think just because their life hasn’t worked out to the delusions they have it’s an excuse to take it out on other people…if your life isn’t what you wanted, do something about it…get off OANN and Newsmax and do something about it…I guess it’s easier to just play the victim all the time just as all the damn repubs do than it is to make something of yourself…I’m a non-vioIent person but I hope they fry this asshole…and every damn other one who pops his ugly loser head out from under their rock….geez…
