I tried. Listened to Countdown with Keith Olberman. Couldn't last the whole podcast. Screaming and yelling and bashing is way too much for me. Blood pressure can't take it. His righteous anger isn't fun anymore. Things are too serious.
Tried to watch
Katie Tur and Nicole Wallace after the hearing today. Wow the ladies competitive juices were really evident. They tried to out talk each other and over talk each other constantly. Couldn't understand much of what they tried to say, so turned back to CNN. They are not a good team.
Oh Lord
Henry Kissinger on Morning Joe to push his new book about DeGaulle. Talk about irrevalency!
Several posters
I've seen say RBG wanted abortion left up to states and gave a speech on this. I looked it up and found, once again, the anti choice folks are cherry picking this.
Time Magazine article in 2018:
When Sen. Hank Brown (R-CO) asked about her remarks during her confirmation hearing, she clarified her stance: “Abortion prohibition by the State, however, controls women and denies them full autonomy and full equality with men. That was the idea I tried to express in the lecture to which you referred.”
Ginsburg said that she believed it would have been easier for the public to understand why the Constitution protected abortion rights if the matter had been framed as one of equal protection rather than privacy. And in fact, there was a specific case she had in mind as one that should have driven the national conversation, instead of letting Roe carry that weight.
Re the use of Instagram for Amber Alerts
I'm very divided by this announcement today. Of course, we all want kidnapped and missing children found asap. But the use of my personal social media account by the government without my permission is very troubling. A fascist regime would do much harm with this power. Is no one questioning g this?

Florida man again
Guy shoots a dog at a dog park because his dog and another dog were growling at each other. Gotta love guns and Florida men!

Has anyone seen
A list of who the gun lobbists are? We know what politicians take their bribes, but who are they? Who do they work for? Time to make these anonymous ciphers known and make their lives miserable.
Gee thanks Morning Joe
For that focus groups with Elise Jordan. GOP voters were allowed to spew falsehoods and hate and the Democrat Group was mostly blacks, guaranteed to rile up the racists. MSNBC is becoming unwatchable.
I've been reading
Steve Schmidt's rants on Twitter this week. He's blasting many of his former associates. He seems overly angry. Today he got his licks into The Lincoln Project. Anyone know why? I'm wondering if he's believable or is he suffering from some sort of breakdown.
I'm just amazed
The first four speakers at the Subway shooting presser were women. The Police Commissioner, Fire Commissioner, Governor and Deputy Mayor! Well done New York!
