71 Commands in 13 Minutes - Total Bullshit

https://www.nytimes.com/2023/01/29/us/tyre-nichols-video-assault-cops.html

The five thugs, and that's what they are; who beat Tyre Nichols to death gave conflicting commands, commands that were impossible for Mr. Nichols to meet and no time to adhere to them if he could.

This was a violent mugging of the highest order and all five of these violent animals should be imprisoned for a very long time!

We are in a state of war.

The attack on the power grid in Washington and Oregon is a declaration of war, as was the attack in North Carolina. Anyone paying attention to postings by MAGATS knows who is responsible for these atttacks.

We can no longer pretend that this is business as usual. These right wing extremists have already declared war and we better take this shit seriously. For them to take a page out of their hero's (Putin) playbook and go after our power grid demands that we bring the full force of our justice system down on their heads. It is long past time that we bring corporal punishment to those who sow chaos and promote violence.

Whether we want to admit it or not, we are in a state of war!

Let's send a barrage of emails to the two Cochise County Republicans who are breaking the law.

Two Republican members of the Cochise County, AZ board of supervisors are breaking AZ law by refusing to certify the vote.

https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2022/nov/30/arizona-county-refuses-certify-midterm-results-legal-battles

Their names are Tom Crosby and Peggy Judd. Their email addresses are as follows:

tcrosby@cochise.az.gov

pjudd@cochise.az.gov

I sent the below email to both of these dirt bags today. Please join me by doing the same. Let's flood their inboxes to let them know their actions are bullshit!

Stop playing political games with the certification process.

You have already committed a class 6 felony and I hope that you’re punished for refusing to meet the responsibilities that you have been entrusted with.

We are a democracy and no political party should hold precedence over the right of the people to have their votes counted.

DO YOUR JOB!

I'll bet my life savings (as meager as they are) the CO shooter is a right wing hate filled MAGAT!

No word yet as to who the perp is in this despicable act of mass murder, but I'd bet my life savings, house, car, and all worldly belongings that this dirtball is an extreme right-wing hate-filled MAGAT.

The amount of blood on these peoples' hands (the NRA, Fox News, GOP, Trump, DeSantis, Talk Radio, Washington Examiner, et al) is mind-numbing.

My heart breaks for the victims and their families.

Just freaking EVIL!

The 117th Congress has a lot of unfinished business before the crazies take over the House.

The looming obstruction by the GOP-controlled House means we've got no time to waste in legislating for the American People because we all know the last thing Republicans want to do is actually govern!

A call to arms from Michael Moore to the 117th Congress on Friday afternoon:

"Every waking moment between now and the installation of the 118th Congress on January 3rd, you have to get this legislation passed: DACA. Universal Pre-K. Paid family leave. A minimum wage increase. Ending gerrymandering. Did you forget abortion??!! Either some of these or all of them. Show some courage. Show some fight. Your actions today will inspire a massive turnout in 2024 because you will have shown the majority of Americans who support you on every single one of these issues that you had the fortitude to get it done when it mattered most.

You’ve got to make this happen!

And in the meantime, over at the White House, Biden, as a Catholic seeking redemption, can start making amends for something he did when he was back in the Senate. He and the Democratic Congress can repeal the 1994 Clinton Crime Bill — the “tough on crime” law that created the mass incarceration of Black and Brown Americans in the 1990s and 2000s. Both Clintons have since denounced their own actions in passing their Crime Bill"

Move over Sam Rayburn...

Move over Sam Rayburn, you've got company!

Hats off to the Speaker of the House, Nancy Pelosi. We shall be forever in your debt.

The difference between pre-election messaging and post-election plan...

As McCarthy and Scalise get ready to exercise their huge edge of three votes in the House of Representatives it appears that their post-election plan differs greatly from their pre-election message.

Pre-election message: "Inflation, inflation, inflation"!

Post-election plan: "Investigation, investigation, investigation"!

The question to the MAGA crowd out there is can you possibly be this stupid?!?

The GOP is going to totally overplay their hand and that will lead to the party that actually governs taking back the House, keeping the Senate and the Presidency in 2024.

Like the bottom-feeding pond scum they are, they just can't help themselves from being slimy.

Josh Hawley is a total idiot!

Josh Hawley called for burying the "old party" and while I agree with the idea of the end of the GOP, meathead Josh and I could not be further apart when it comes to the reasoning.

Josh in his infinite wisdom doesn't see a problem with the vile hatred and extremism of today's GOP, he thinks the party needs to double down and that any semblance of the party that was formed under Lincoln and that elected Teddy Roosevelt and Dwight Eisenhower should be buried.

I say the GOP in its present form needs to be put to rest and conservatives in this country need to embrace democracy and put their country above their worship for demagogues like Trump, DeSantis, and Hawley!

The Red Wave that wasn't!

It would appear that the freaking circus that is the MSM has been served a big large helping of humble pie as their prognostications of gloom and doom for the Democrats failed to materialize.

While we have a ways to go to make certain we hold the Senate (quite likely at this point) and we hope for a miracle to hold the House (not so likely), the predictions of a massive Red Wave were totally unfounded. The people refused to be bullied into submission and showed up when America needed them most.

Meanwhile, in Mar-A-Largo a large storm showed up to rain on Dayglow's misguided victory celebration and he was humiliated to the point they ushered out the media shortly after midnight to allow tRump to slither away to his glorified condo to hide for the night.

Add in the likely defeat of gun-loving air head Boebert in Colorado, Fetterman's victory in PA, Lake's likely defeat in AZ, and LePage's butt-kicking in Maine and we have what is a historic mid-term election upset.

As Dandy Don Meredith used to sing on Monday Night Football, "Turn Out the Lights, the Party's Over"!

Trump appointed Judge Michael T. Liburdi says armed thugs in AZ...

Are just exercising their First Amendment Rights - WTF!?!

This no holds barred interpretation of the First Amendment is insanity. There are limits to Free Speech and camping out by voter lock boxes to intimidate voters is not what James Madison had in mind when he drafted the first amendment.

What's next it's okay if a RW screwball shoots you between the eyes because he's just exercising his freedom of speech???
