As I type, it is only about 10:30 am in Portland – which would have been more than enough time for TC to have posted normally, but quite possibly not enough time for a computer tech to have arrived, or, having arrived, to have finished. I’m going to put up the video thread early and wait before putting up a placeholder.
I know I’ve been kind of pushing Glenn Kirschner, and his videos run longish (this one is 9 minutes), but he is so articulate and really knows the Constitution, I find every second I spend with him is educational and profitable. The Fourth Amendment, people.
Really American – “Teen Love”

John Fugelsang is really on a roll! “The Matt Gaetz Prison Podcast”
Parody Project (and TFT) respond to YouTube taking down their video not too long ago. Brilliant. Also, a link to a new location!
Beau – President Biden is nominating many extremely qualified people, including some whose credentials are not exactly expected (spoiler: and probably better than the usual.) This pick is a case in point.
Now This News – Infrastructure Plan, Readers Digest version. No, it’s not enough, but it’s a heck of a good start.
Really American, now crediting Chip Franklin (makes sense to me)
OwlKitty vs. Godzilla. Short dialog at the beginning: “We need OwlKitty to stop what’s coming.” After that, just some sound effects and a little purring.
How could I post a video thread today with out a prank? And this one is epic – an epic fail, that is.
Sorry to be so late. I had a grocery delivery which I couldn’t schedule for tomorrow because we’re expecting snow (well, I could have, but they aren’t paid enough to deliver in the snow IMO.)

Here’s something nice: Senator Martin Heimrich (D-NM) speaking in favor of the nomination of Representative Deb Haaland (D-NM) to head the Interior Department.
Congresswoman Haaland has lived experience–as a single mother, as a small business owner, and as a Tribal administrator–that will serve her well and bring real representation to President Biden’s Cabinet. As many have noted, Congresswoman Haaland will also make history as the first-ever Native American Cabinet secretary, something that frankly should have happened a long, long time ago. Deb is uniquely qualified to restore the Department of Interior’s nation-to-nation relationship to Tribal Nations and to help Indian Country recover and rebuild from COVID-19.
This was Thursday. Under 7 minutes and – professional – and personal.
Also Thursday. To quote “Mineral Man at Democratic Underground, “This Is How a Real President Signs a Bill. Maybe the most important one so far. No crowd of grinning assholes behind you. No holding up something to show your illegible signature. You say a few words, sign the bill, and go back to work.”
All the REAL former presidents make a PSA for vaccines.
