There is no news today outside of the usual huffing and puffing from Trump and his acolytes in politics and the media, so feel free to discuss what you want.
In America’s supposedly liberal media, Jeff Bezos hired some British Fleet Street sleaze to run the Washington Post and the New York Times is having a field day running stories about his history of running stories based on illegally obtained phone hacks. The Times isn’t the only media outlet gloating; Politico wasted no time piling on.
You’d think Republicans, having seen the backlash against overturning Roe v. Wade, would soft-pedal their Christianist forced-birth bullshit, but no – they’re actually split about whether in-vitro fertilization should be banned. Keep fucking that chicken, fellas.
Republicans, with Trump at the forefront, keep criticizing voting machines that don’t keep a paper record of votes. Raw Story looked into it and found that except for New Jersey, the states without paper ballots all are red states that voted for Trump. The GOP screwed itself on this one: They’re the ones who rigged the vote whenever possible, and they’ve now made that harder for themselves.
The floor’s yours.
