If Ya Can’t Beat 'Em, Leave 'Em

…a strongly worded letter in your empty seat…

The “America First Tour” is back! Greene & Gaetz continue to be a sad mess anywhere they can. Greene is back to using the Holocaust as her stock comparison, & denying responsibility for anti-vax Americans who have lost their lives to COVID. They also (more so Gaetz) got epically trolled by comedian Walter Masterson at a beach rally. & as a cherry on top, at least 3 SoCal venues cancelled their events, at least one of which cited community backlash.

The Texas House Democrats have turned it up a notch! Greg Abbott really wants his voter suppression bill to pass, so the House Dems denied quorum by leaving the state & going to DC, even amid Abbott threatening their arrest. Plus, Corporate Democrats in Congress are scared & trying to protect their own. So-called moderate Democrats Hakeem Jeffries, Josh Gottheimer, & Terri Sewell have started Team Blue PAC, a group designed to help incumbents against progressive primary challengers, because party unity.

Plus, we talk about the upcoming 2nd season of Wu-Tang: An American Saga, & the change that reflects a former cast member joining the cast of Power Book III. And in a small update on Cuba, we react to an NBC interview with Rodolfo Davalos Jr, son of the President of the Cuban Court of Arbitration. & in January 6th news, McCarthy has chosen his 5 for the commission, but Pelosi spotted 2 Trump loyalists & gave ‘em the can.

Other topics include artificial weather conspiracy, weather vs. climate, 2000s telenovelas, Lindsey Graham’s hypocrisy, the absurdity of the Thin Blue Line mantra, & what beliefs say about a person.
