The Coverup Continues. In a midnight court filing, Justice Department claims unredacted e-mails protected by executive privilege.
What Trump’s ‘Regime Change’ Policy In Iran Will Likely Yield. Short answer: Not what Trump says he wants.
Murkowski Blames, Wait For It, Elizabeth Warren For Murkowski’s Craven Votes. How does CNN swallow that horseshit? Rhetorical question.
Trump Returns To Unjustified Attacks On Immigrants. This time, mostly black immigrants from African countries. I’ll say it. Trump’s Republican Party is the most dangerous political movement since Hitler in Germany. A would-be dictator has been completely unfettered to do what he wants. Including stealing a second election.
Robert Reich: Democrats Failed To Fix A Rigged System. Today’s must-read. I think it’s also why we must nominate a progressive.
What do you want to talk about?


“Elitism is a typical aspect of any reactionary ideology.” –Umberto Eco, ‘Ur-Fascism’, New York Review of Books, 1995
“Robert Reich: Democrats Failed To Fix A Rigged System. Today’s must-read. I think it’s also why we must nominate a progressive.”
Don’t worry. When Biden is sworn in Republicans will return to “norms” like swallows returning to Capistrano.
Murkowski Now Blames Elizabeth Warren For Her Craven Votes. *shared*
Read that. Utterly disgusting.
POLITICO Playbook reports today that Trump will be attending National Prayer Breakfast on Thursday.
This National Student Leadership Forum post shows Coons and preznit from 2019 as in we expect Mr. Coons to preside again this year.

Will Chris Coons have the temerity to bow his head in prayer with the greatest of evil fuckwads in the history of the USA again this year? Haven’t seen who are the co-chairs this year. And Coons claims to be pro-choice, pro-women. hmmmmmmmm

Good catch, Nancy.
“Will Chris Coons have the temerity to bow his head in prayer with the greatest of evil fuckwads in the history of the USA again this year?”

Hold onto your hats.
FYI. These aren’t party ass lickers doing their duty.
Do you see?
Bend the fucking knee now. United on our terms. Get onboard for the big win.
I wish I were making this up. Joe Biden, who is dodging interviews with real journalists, granted one to a college journalist in Iowa.
Biden emphasized in the interview that his two major priorities as president will be to stop violence against women and to cure cancer.
Next time someone tells you that progressivism isn’t pragmatic, remember that their “pragmatic” candidate wants to end cancer and violence against women, two things that the presidency was not designed to address and in fact can do nothing about.
