Robert Reich – Danger of Collective Amnesia
Thom Hartmann – Does Too Much TV Create Dementia? Geeky Science (IMO what’s being left out of this summary is that correlation does not equal causation – and, even if it does, it can go either of two ways. I’d sooner believe that people inclined to stimulate their grey cells will seek out stimulating activits, including television.))

Sorry, the comment form is closed at this time.
MT: Can not end well.
NT: Boy, TOT must be sooo jealous!
RR: Will not, ever, forget. Hell, I’d still like get a good right hook into Nixon’s nose!
TH: “Watching more T.V. every day….” What is “more” in this context? “Those who watch the most T.V.” Now, that makes sense. “Cognitively stimulating…,” is the operative issue. Makes sense, as in “Use it, or loose it.”
Princess Lady: Great!
Beau: The politicians care about how they are seen. Tennessee does not seem to care about its image, in my view.
Keith: He’s got it right! and then there is this: https://www.kiro7.com/news/trending/trump-criminal-probe-prosecutor-convenes-grand-jury-hear-evidence-weigh-potential-charges/KIG7FIKYNNHEZPJC53AZUM7ZNE/
I picked the princess one because THIS is you you princess (or just royal). This is the way it’s done. “I couldn’t just say, “Bye now, hope yu work it all out.” This is my family. I have a responsibility.” What a contrast to, say, Ivanka.
MT: “You know, this does not end well.” No, it won’t but hopefully very soon.
NTN: Terrifying. This is what happens when a dictator isn’t held to account and has annihilated what little democracy in the form of elections his country still had. This is the face of the former guy when he gets the chance to secure his regime in a few years time.
RR: Nearly six months in from January 6, and the media and Congress seem to have returned to the times of the former guy. There’s a new government doing its level best to bring America back from the brink, but has of the country couldn’t care less.
TH: Sadly, the people who watch this clip are the people who need no warning; they already watch TV/video that engages their brain.
Beau: It’s not only cheaper to be a good person, but it’s also more profitable. And like the people in every other state, the good people of Tennessee will act in the interest of their wallet. Exactly like their lawmakers have done when they wrote this law according to the wishes of their sponsor. So Tennessee will go back to Apartheid signs like they had in the 50s. Way to go.
KO: I couldn’t agree more with Keith’s opinion on Republicans and on DFemocrats in Congress. Get that special prosecutor out of the mothballs and get going before most Americans truly have forgotten what happened around January 6.
Thanks JD
No vids today. I’m exhausted!

I’d love to sit in on the Biden-Putin meeting in Geneva next month.
Such a relief to know we have someone who isn’t compromised by Putin, won’t be taking orders and will provide a transcript of the meeting.
The Danger of Collective Amnesia
There is NO REASON to “just move on” as the Rethuglicans keep hoping & pleading for.
OLBERMANN VS…”TOO SOON” FOR A 1/6 COMMISSION? FINE. KILL IT. GO STRAIGHT TO A SPECIAL PROSECUTOR.
Sounds good to me!
