Meidas Touch – Texas Law BACKFIRES and accidentally labels Republicans COMMUNISTS (Too funy. Beto accurately knows that “communist” is an economic term [and he isn’t one] – the Texas law isn’t a bad one, but it should have used the term “authotitarian,” or “insurrectionist” – overthrowing the governmetn has nothing to do with communism.)

The Lincoln Project – Peril

Robert Reich – Why Does Krysten Sinema Want to Keep This Tax Loophole Open? [What has happened is that it was replaced by a 1% excise tax on stock buybacks. That is not as good as closing the loophole, but at least it hits corporations rather than normal people. It was John Hickenlooper’s idea and CPR is very proid of that but I’m unimpressed. It is approximately the same amount of money coming in.)

Yesterday, I set up my meds for the next two weeks, because I hadn’t done it Saturday. Oh, well, that’s why I keep a couple of extras filled – so I can miss a day withut actually missing a day. And nthat was pretty much all I did. the weather is what my Aunt Mary used to call “enervating.” (Yes, love of words runs in my family – both sides.) And I want to save as much energy as I can for the hearings which I understand are scheduled for Tuesday and Thursday.

Crooks and Liars – SNEAKS: PA GOPers Advance Anti-Abortion Amendment Last [Thursday] Night
Quote – The first step happened last night, but the long-term plan is to get an anti-abortion constitutional amendment on the ballot next year…. In PA, the process is they need to pass through both chambers twice, in consecutive legislative sessions, then they hit the ballot. If Rs time the anti-abortion one correctly, it will hit the ballot in an off year, low turnout election with least amount of voter participation
Click through for story. Yes, this is one state, but it could happen elsewhere.

[Detroit] Metro Times – We interviewed the guy behind the viral ‘woke’ HVAC ad from Lansing
Quote – ”I can’t pretend like everything is ok,” the ad reads. “Gun fetishes are being prioritized, women are no longer in control of their own bodies. The earth is heating up. Black and Brown people are still being killed, brutalized, or otherwise harassed. Honestly, at this point, who gives a SH*T about HVAC. But if you’re hot, give us a call.”
I’ve quoted the ad. Click through for the interview.
