Glenn Kirschner – More on Rudy and Search Warrants

Glenn Kirschner – Judge Jackson and Bill Barr

The Lincoln Project – “Mourning in America” one year later (no CC – and the transcriotion site is borked – I did try)

The Republican Accountability Project – Liz Cheney

Lakota Peoples Law Project – Needed to be said.

Top Ten Cat Superpowers

Beau on spurious correlations (the one I always trot out is that the number of teachers in the United States correlates very strongly indeed to the number of alcoholics in the United States – because both correlate to total population.)

Glenn Kirschner on what might be next for Rudy

The Lincoln project – First 100

Meidas Touch – “Voices” – Quite direct

Corey Ryan Forrester – How QAnon comes up with their theories (remember “Mad Libs”?)

Beau – “Let’s talk about Biden’s speech, autocracy, and democracy” – Illuminaating.

This is 43 seconds and no, I haven’t lost my mind. Stay to the end and watch the faces. You may need to watch the faces a second time to get the full flavor. And no, there’s no CC, and I don’t want to put a spoiler here, but there’s one here

The Lincoln Project – “McCarthy”

Ring of Fire – more on McCarthy (et al)

The Damage Report – I did see this yesterday, but TC was having nausea, so I held it.

Lawrence O’Donnell – “A moral moment.” Also – “The team is still intact.”

Armageddon Update – from last Friday.but worth seeing just for the domino demonstration at the end. Feel free to skip.

Meidas Touch – Depressing – nothing that we didn’t know (or strongly suspect), but now, confirmation.

Really American

The Republican Accountability Project – and here’s the link to the Report Card – https://accountability.gop/report-card/ (Mine got an “F” – no surprise)

The Damage Report – The lying is no surprise, though the apology is

Now This News – Super (Pink) Moon At least this is not depressing. (It also isn’t pink, and the brightness is not due to air pollution.)

Robert Reich – Voting Rights

Beau on Montana’s new law and a Republican “change of heart”

I honestly didn’t get through all “the usual sources,” and still didn’t feel I had room for everything I wanted to share.    So expect catchup ahead.

Meidas Touch – Roland Martin #3 – nothing we didn;t know, but he has the receipts.  I viewed it at .75 speed and found that an improvement.

Really American – Ron Johnson

CNN – Jim Acosta gets it.

Now This News – “Joints for Jabs”

H/T Freya for “Save the Gerrymanders!”

H/T Lona https://www.democraticunderground.com/emoticons/hattip.gif for the Razzie Award show (featuring Mike Lindell – AND Rudy Giuliani!)

Beau – More (detail) on fire preparedness

Really American – “Final Four”

Meidas Touch – Rep. Grace Meng takes longer than Rep Lieu to excoriate ex-Guv Huckabee – and it”s golden

Robert Reich – How Corporations Crush the Working Class

New! Randy! Rainbow!

Dedicated to Karen (with so many memes I recommend going through twice – once forthe lyrics and once for the memes, maybe the second time slowed down with the sound off.)

Beau talked about “tomorrow” yesterday – so this concerns today – and is now already over – for today.

Really American – It finally dawned upon me that these Really American videos with Glenn Kirschner must be speeded up! they are so different from his “Justice Matters voice. There is a way to slow them (or any YouTube video) down through the settings by selecting “playback speed.”

The Lincoln Project – “Why We Fight”

Ring of Fire – Farron is understandably (and justifiably) upset.

Corey Ryan Forrester – THE BUTTERCREAM DREAM THINKS WE NEED TO REDEFINE THE WORD “PATRIOT”

Beau doesn’t really have a crystal ball – anyone who pays attention could have told you this (maybe not so well, though)

Keith from yesterday – There’s CC but it’s in Russian.

There’s text at the site, but it’s not a transcript, so I downloaded on elsewhere. I only cleaned it up a little so there’s still off punctuation and capitalization.
Okay, so I just got my second dose of the vaccine out here at aqueduct, racetrack in new york, where I once bet illegally as a sixteen year old, but everything since then has gone okay. I wanted to talk to you about vaccine hesitancy and I doubt that anybody who’s watching my video would be vaccine, hesitant or vaccine skeptic, but just in case you know somebody who is, a couple of points to make – right after they injected directly into my veins number one side effects that you may hear about: they don’t necessarily get caused by that just happened. I have another friend who got his first shot before his second shot. He had a foot injury. I had a foot injury. That does not mean this causes foot injuries number two too fast: the development of this drug. No, not really. No. Moderna had thisstuff ready on january thirteenth, twenty twenty they spent the last six eight twelve months working. Making sure that this particular vaccine worked against this particular corona virus and it has the idea that there might be tracking micro chips injected into your arm really small ones. I suppose they could tell everybody where you are defies not only logic and common sense and, of course, every conspiracy theory you can think of, but also denies the market forces Right. Now you have a microchip on. You called your phone for which they managed to charge you anything from. Oh, I don’t know four hundred dollars to a million depending on how expensive your phone is. Why would they give you one for free? And lastly, if you are afraid of needles just say, you’re afraid of needles- I don’t know I had corona virus last year. If they told you you had to get the vaccine through your eyeball. I would have said: okay, I’m not going to enjoy it, but give it to me through my eyeball. They don’t they put it in your arm. You don’t feel anything it’s a little sore or later. So just remember. This now means v for vaccines, get the damn shot already. Thank you good night and good luck.

Meidas Touch – Border “crisis” fake

Armageddon Update – Nothing we all don’t know, but his style is – what it is.

Ring of Fire – I don’t think this was a recent decision on the part of Sen. Whitehouse. I think what’s recent is a DOJ he feels he can trust.

A group of California doctors calling themselves Vax’n8:

Mrs Betty Bowers – I missed this when it posted, but it’s not getting stale any time soon.

Beau – Denial is not a river in Egypt.
