Lisa Blunt Rochester Would Like You to Know that She Wrote a Letter

Completely fucking useless.

WASHINGTON – Congresswoman Lisa Blunt Rochester (D-Del.), (and bipartisans!) joined in urging the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to do everything it can to ensure that air-monitoring networks and air monitors that are critical to informing public health protections remain in operation during the COVID-19 pandemic.

What fucking planet does this useless fucking waste of space live on?

One consequence of the Trump presidency has been a recalibration of reality, and what is possible within its supposed confines, a condition that is not contained to matters relating to Trump. I can think of no other explanation for the weirdest story of the month, a podcast series by Orwell prize-winning US journalist Patrick Radden […]

Go back to work, serfs

“It isn’t going to touch me, so why should I be inconvenienced?”  

Certain people (and political parties) still think that coronavirus only really kills nurses, cashiers & soulless poultry plant human robots.   Even if it was true, we don’t have an endless supply of disposable workers.

Trump will use pandemic to cancel election

I think we’ve all thought what Michael Moore says outloud to Vanity Fair: “There will be no November 3 election if things keep going the way they’re going right now,” Moore said. “I think he would have figured out a way, even without the coronavirus, but this is a gift to him because I think […]

Billionaires have taken to begging people to go back to work, using every tool at their disposal except higher wages and better benefits. The non-essential jobs, it turns out, are the ones at the top of the capitalism pyramid, and it takes a lot of cashflow to keep the money pump primed and flowing. Why, […]

With all of his whining about how high his taxes are, you’d think blowing piles of money on an ill conceived vanity campaign for Gov would be low on his list of things to do.

What does it mean that there is no “middle” in American politics?

I’m seriously asking. I mean I know that the fact that there is “no middle” (that there are no “persuadable” voters (that there are no magical centrists who are gong to save America with their magical sobriety and even handedness)) is bad news for fucking fuckstick collaborators like Chris Coons.  It also should mean that […]

Trump Unveils Campaign Strategy:  Expand Base Beyond Racists Idiots to Include Very Racists Idiots & Absurdly Racist Idiots

Trump’s poll numbers are terrible. It is strange to think that he hasn’t spent one minute in office trying to win over any voters who are not already Trump voters. It is almost as if he knows something that we don’t know.
