Competing to Be the Worst

It’s season 2!

Representative Cori Bush spearheaded an effort to get the eviction moratorium extended, as there doesn’t seem to have been an extension plan, & the efforts have successfully led to an extension, much to the chagrin of the housing industry, the people that “shelter America.” Plus, Speaker Pelosi claims the President cannot forgive student loan debt, and stumbles in trying to make a nonsense argument out of it.

Ron DeSantis & Greg Abbott are really trying to one-up each other in serving their true overlord, the virus. Florida & Texas continue to see record daily infection numbers, to the point of filling hospitals beyond capacity & now having to ask for federal aid to combat the rising number of hospitalizations. Also, Marjorie Greene teams up with her partner-in-crime Matt Gaetz on his podcast to talk about “corporate communism,” because in her mind, it’s the politicians buying the corporations and making them “woke.”

Later on, we talk about the 2-part infrastructure bill, consisting on the bipartisan $1.2 trillion bill & the $3.5 trillion budget resolution, both of which have passed in the Senate, the latter through budget reconciliation. Other topics include the effect COVID has had on TV shows & movies, old Disney movies & newer shows, Degrassi, stories getting padded out by lack of communication between characters, Progressive Nina Turner’s loss to corporate Democrat Shontel Brown.
