In Other News...





















Mike Pence is still a lickspittle. 

Imagine that. 

Have a good weekend.

Orange Man Holding His Breath Until He Turns Blue



























Maybe he's also hoping to be proclaimed a modern day Augustus

Who knows?

But time to stop indulging. He's no modern day Augustus. 

He's an asshole.

Gaslighting, Hissy Fits, and Abuse
















































Not to spotlight only Rand Paul and Tucker Carlson -- it's an entire GOP thing -- but Paul's reaction to the Fauci emails and Carlson's daily embrace of white supremacy are good if not perfect examples of how they expect the media (Carlson's NOT media -- he's a propagandist), anyway, they expect the media to uncritically accept and amplify baseless allegations. 


But thanks to decades of both-sides reporting, "Fauci's emails" will get at least a few media cycles if not the full Hillary. 

And neither Carlson or Paul will face consequences for pushing bullshit. 

That's also how we've been force fed decades of supply side economics, despite clear evidence it's also...bullshit.

That's also how the GOP can insist they're only "concerned about voter fraud" instead of racing to enact knee-jerk, lockstep voter suppression laws because they keep losing in free and fair elections, and can only "win" by anti-small-d-democratic devices like the filibuster, gerrymandering, and the Electoral College. 

And that's also how they can get away with inciting a riot when, even with all that, they lost.
