I like this idea, Ron DeSantis! Collect all the unvaccinated cops you can find! Come to think of it, y’all should lure every last unvaxxed American to your state so the rest of us can get back to normal life. We can rename Florida “The Pestilent Peninsula.” I mean, it’s...
Here’s the latest news today out of Pennsylvania: Lou Barletta, the Republican Party’s Donald Trump-endorsed nominee for U.S. Senate in 2018, is running for governor of Pennsylvania. Barletta, 65, becomes the most prominent figure to enter a 2022 governor’s race that Republicans have won every time in the past half-century...
Ron Desantis makes Rick Scott look like a saint. Seriously, who would have thought such a thing. He hasn’t done squat over Hurricane damage and in hiding. He sends out pre recorded messages and the local news has been running on a scroll line how he has lifted all precautions...
From Ashley Reese at Jezebel: Georgia Senator Kelly Loeffler—who rose to national prominence after being implicated in an alleged covid-19 insider trading clusterfuck—has a fast and loose definition of who the second amendment applies to, despite presenting herself as a gun rights champion. And she made this loud and clear during a hilariously racist Fox...
Trump claimed cases would go from fifteen to zero on 28 February. Cases are over a million and he keeps raising his prideful death total now to 60-70,000, Today’s US death total is 63,000. I’m not sure what a “very, very strong” death total means, But over 60,000 lives lost is...
Go down with the ship: When Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) moved to draw the line on sending further coronavirus aid for hard-hit state and local governments on Wednesday, it caused a backlash among Democrats and even some Republicans. But on Friday, one of the most politically vulnerable members of McConnell’s...
Remember when Donald Trump, instead of taking the bull by the horns and helping our fellow Americans in Puerto Rico following Hurricane Maria, decided to throw paper towels at them, blame them for their troubles, whine about the expense their predicament was incurring, lie about the expense itself, and excoriate their...
Giving the GOP emergency powers is another scheme to loot the treasury, much like the attempts to defund social security and Medicare. So much cynicism in the GOP pimping a stimulus package that favors corporate income. x Sen. Jeff Merkley explains why Senate Democrats blocked Mitch McConnell's corrupt coronavirus stimulus...
The Advocate has a great piece out about Dr. Eliz Markowitz’s (D. TX-HD28) special election tomorrow to flip the Texas State House blue: Democrats are nine seats away from flipping the Texas House in November. They are unlikely to gain control of the state Senate, which currently has 19 Republicans and...
Surprising that it’s not connected to the Shreks’ company, “Fraud Guarantee”, and yet sanctions got removed from related Russian companies. Individual-1 Trump obeys his masters, even if there are a lot of folks with similar names. Lavrov may have ordered Trump to *remove immediately* three Russian ‘companies’ connected with Evil...

Today is Indigenous Peoples’ Day, also called Native American Day (SD) or Discoverers’ Day (HI), officially celebrated in 7 states instead of...
One hundred years ago the legislature of North Dakota created a public bank for the state and its people. Today, moments ago, Governor Newsom signed into law legislation passed last month by the Legislature enabling the creation of public banks in California. It is the first such legislation to be...
You have to read this entire joint report by the Kansas City Star and ProPublica to fully understand the story. I will attempt to summarize the report in less than 50 words: Kansas Secretary of State and Donald Trump crony Kris Kobach convinced multiple U.S. municipalities to adopt anti-immigrant policies,...
Originally posted at Eclectablog.com. Republicans have successfully branded themselves as the party that worships “local governmental control”. They want federal regulations repealed and the power given to the states on all sorts of things from the environment to the Affordable Care Act. But, when it comes to actual local control,...
I finally have all the video up from the Effingham public comment hearing on Illinois' proposed fracking rules. Below are the five videos I haven't already posted, and at the end is a playlist of all seven videos together if you'd like to see everything. I didn't get the entire hearing,...
