Good luck with that ask Mr. Zelinsky, but excellent speech, man.
I’m sure that Trump and the party of Putin in America is not very happy about this little Jewish lawyer/ comedian/president’s speech in Congress. It’s amazing that the GOP seems to be taking the side of the aggressor in this war-crime ridden war for territory and domination of a sovereign neighbor. Or maybe not so amazing, considering everything else the party of violence stands for…
He will make “domestic censorship” illegal and make it a crime for any federal bureaucrat to label anything mis or disinformation. What could go wrong?
The man is constant, and as true today as he was back in June when he denounced the partisan thugs on the discredited January 6th committee. SAD!
Now I suppose these November Criminals are going to indict him.
“We’re focused on how political our Justice Department has become — they’re making decisions on a political basis, we’re going to look at all that,” [Ohio rep Jim] Jordan said in a November news conference. “We’re concerned about anything that is being done in a political fashion at the Justice Department.” . . .
. . . Jordan’s counterpart on the House Oversight Committee, however, recently said in a CNN interview that following up an investigation into classified documents found at Trump’s private club and estate in Florida “will not be a priority.” Incoming chairman James Comer (R-Ky.) has been conducting the minority party’s own investigation into the August search warrant executed at Trump’s Mar-a-Lago estate, but he has indicated he favors prioritizing investigations examining Twitter’s handling of reporting on Hunter Biden before the 2020 election and the origins of the coronavirus.

Then with the same level of seriousness and shrewd analysis of what is in the best interest of Justice, the article ends with this blurting from the disgraced former president, our recent 2 year-old in Chief.
“Under the Presidential Records Act and the very well established Clinton Socks Case, the raid of Mar-a-Lago by the FBI, and the taking of documents and many other items, was ILLEGAL,” Trump said Friday on Truth Social. “Everything should be returned, at once!”
You’re goddamned right we’re exceptional, this is the only wealthy country in the world where every old person is guaranteed the right to have no teeth. Every American knows that teeth and dental care are no more a part of a person’s health than the ability to see, no matter what the so-called scientific community might have to say. Insurance carriers have the last word here and even government insurance, unless you’re dirt poor and qualified for Medicaid, does not cover so-called dental and so-called vision.
Two things that rarely afflict seniors anyway, losing teeth and failing eyesight. We salute you here, from the land of the toothless and the home of the blind.
If you live long enough, in the land of freedom loving mass shootings.
From last week’s Washington Post, in an article about Twitter suspending the account of swastika posting genius Ye. Note the pathologically greedy Jeff Bezos’s generous framing of his fellow suremely entitled psychopath
Musk purchased the site for $44 billion in late October, and has moved rapidly to shift the company in the direction of his free speech ideals.
Free thinking idealists, one and all. Democracy dies in darkness, y’all.
Lawrence O’Donnell with a smart analysis of Donald Trump’s five dimensional legal chess strategy:
Because a narcissist like Trumpie can only be the greatest winner in the world or its most humiliated loser, he continues to insist (with all evidence showing he’s lying, he lost by 7,000,000 votes) that he never lost the 2020 election. He has no proof, but he doesn’t need it. He just lies, over and over, and those who love and admire him love him for it. “He’s stronger than the so-called truth, facts, evidence, rules, laws, norms, Constitution, what have you! That’s our boy!”
His latest maniacal move is to call for the abolition of all laws, norms, rules, the Constitution itself, in order to overturn the stolen election that he lost by the same Electoral College margin he called a landslide when it went in his favor in 2016. His party, which rode him to fabulous far right fever dream success, is so far sticking with their man, the leader of their party and its most likely candidate in 2024. Presumably cooler heads within the party are waiting for an indictment and conviction to remove him from the political playing field, although history shows they shouldn’t hold their breath. Here’s a link to Heather with an excellent piece about the latest shamelessness from the shamefully obsequious Grand Old Party. The party of Law and Order.
Jill succinctly wraps up the major democracy related issues that need to be dealt with once the January 6th committee wraps up its work, issues its report and releases all the evidence gathered during its long investigation.
