Rep. Kevin Brady (R-TX) did not expect the pushback he got from Chuck Todd so he died and then changed the subject. The damage was already done. Chuck Todd challenges the lying Rep.

Forgive my fit of pique. Another salvo in the Dr. Seuss Wars comes just as I’d finished training my Seuss-sniffing German shepherds to find, identify, and eliminate all 12 extant copies of McElligot’s Pool. Meanwhile, my stormtroopers are conducting a thorough sweep of Little Free Libraries across the nation. Horton is about...
I wanted to make sure you all saw this: Colorado Sen. Michael Bennet on Wednesday called on the Senate to act in the wake of a mass shooting at a supermarket in his state, asserting in an impassioned speech from the chamber floor that his colleagues have a moral obligation to a generation...
Weird how it’s possible to have presidential leadership that isn’t into gaslighting douchebaggery or mindless grifting off “cancelculture” Still getting reaccustomed to having a President of the United States who is modest, kind and respectful. — Michael Beschloss (@BeschlossDC) March 12, 2021 Cruz is also spending money to run Facebook...
The President wants the Georgia Attorney General to “find” 11k votes.
If Trump vetoes the Covid-19 relief bill, much of the government will shut down: U.S. faces risk of government shutdown as Trump balks at COVID-19 relief deal Americans on Wednesday faced the prospect of a government shutdown during a pandemic as outgoing President Donald Trump, angry at his fellow Republicans...
Trump sells off his private helicopter after losing the election, so perhaps he’s cash-short, even as he’s running another grift, claiming he’d run again in 2024. However, there’s other shenanigans possible in the remaining 70 days, including a small-scale international military action that in itself could cause a continuing problem...
The irony here is rich. How the fuck am I supposed to keep government surplus food down if I’m continually reminded of Trump? Politico: The Agriculture Department last week began mandating that millions of boxes of surplus food for needy families include a letter from President Donald Trump claiming credit...
Likely Trump tweeted because of the haircut protest, much like his comment yesterday that Virginia needed to use the Second Amendment to protect its potatoes. https://twitter.com/marceelias/status/1263087238876889090?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw
Received this e-mail today from U.S. Senator Ed Markey’s (D. MA) re-election campaign: The coronavirus pandemic is exposing and exacerbating the racism and injustice embedded in our economy and our health care system. That's why I joined Senator Elizabeth Warren and Representative Ayanna Pressley to introduce legislation to force the...
Even without a daily COVID taskforce briefing, we’re not starving for incompetent discourse on Easter weekend. First Trump attacks the MSM hobbyhorse yet again with the usual logical fallacy about source integrity. Then Bret Stephens tries to again fill an intellectual vacuum defined by IMPOTUS*’s discourse inferno. https://twitter.com/realDonaldTrump/status/1249045314994081795 https://twitter.com/realDonaldTrump/status/1249046469618864131 There’s...
While Republicans work hard to get elected to offices they decry as useless and impediments to success, I am taking a moment to remember the sarcastic critique of the federal government by former president Ronald Reagan,” I'm from the government and I'm here to help.” Reagan was almost right, except...
The 2.2 million death toll cited by Trump that would occur without any mitigation will become a meme so that the quarter million death toll won’t seem so high. We’re not going to know the real numbers much like Puerto Rico, until much later. So much disinformation in today’s COVID-19...
The government is a good boogeyman. But understand what it means because it is the confusion that the plutocracy wants. The government is “we the people” which means if the government is the problem then we are the problem. That simply isn't true. It is them, not Government x x...
Trump’s first instinct was to delay addressing the spread. Trump kept the numbers down by suppressing information and testing. He tried to reward profiteering rather than meet needs. And then there’s the kind of pathological lying in daily briefings that mimic his campaign hate rallies, including the incessant shifting of blame to a...
The Federal government excels at producing documents, in this case the head of the Executive Branch “looked the other way until it was too late.” This not-yet-released HHS report on COVID-19 projects an 18-month-long tsunami of nationwide disease and death. The Trump administration could’ve stemmed the tide but looked the...
Today's segment on Meet The Press illustrates a technique that uses the media to dismiss administration wrongdoing. Chuck Todd called it out however timidly. Chuck Todd called out GOP hack Hugh Hewitt but … x x YouTube Video Chuck Todd asked if there was anyone left in the administration who could control...
If you watched the Canadian debates on television, you saw an ideological cross-section similar to the US, including anti-immigrant nutters, reactionary crazies and barely a hint of plurality. Some predicted a minority government with some form of coalition. UPDATE: CBC has just announced that the Liberals have won with a...
