Short Takes, 3/4/2023

 

(3 minute read.)

 Short takes on a variety of subjects. 

Montana bled dry.

            In Montana the Neo-Republican Fascists (NRFs) tried to make it illegal for people to donate blood if they have been vaccinated for Covid-19.[1]  Their supporting evidence was already-debunked junk science and conspiracy theories.  Not a well thought out plan but they just wanted to make their constituents happy by telling them what they wanted to hear and doing what they wanted them to do.  Turned out other NRFs didn’t go along with crippling the state’s blood supply.

Seemed like a bad idea.

Investigating the dead.

            Neo-Republican Fascist James Comer, Chairman of the House Oversight Committee, is bemoaning the fact that President Biden’s dead son Beau Biden wasn’t charged back in 2008 for campaign contribution violations.[2]  (Beau Biden died in 2015.)  The audio is available here.  The suspect violations were in fact investigated at the time and the decision was that no charges were warranted. 

            Comer is currently investigating Hunter Biden but his real target is President Biden.  The Justice Department is also investigating Hunter Biden.  Hunter Biden has readily admitted that he was/is an addict and here’s a surprise—people on crack don’t make the best of decisions.

            Also Hunter Biden’s laptop will be difficult to use as evidence for anything since so many people have handled it.  They do have the pictures of Hunter naked to look at.

So, there’s that.

Is it the math or vocabulary?

            NRF Marjorie Taylor Greene is upset that more fentanyl is being seized by the Biden administration at the southern border.[3]  Yes, you read that right.  I had to read the article again and watch her again to try and see what I was missing.  But no.

That’s what she’s upset about.

Boebert still praying for Biden to die.

            NRF Congresswoman Boebert is still praying for President Biden to die.[4]  She cited Psalms 109:8.  (KJV)  “Let his days be few; and let another take his office.”  BTW, here’s the next verse.  “Let his children be fatherless, and his wife a widow.”  Then this.  "Let his children be continually vagabonds, and beg: let them seek their bread also out of their desolate places."  Just like in the church crowd in Colorado[5] attendees at the Texas church laughed.  Nothing says Christian Nationalist like praying for our President to die. 

Quite the knee slapper.

Trolling Dems

            A Florida state Republican introduced a bill[6] to eliminate the Democratic Party in Florida.[7]  When they aren’t trying to sack our Capitol some of them are regular comedians.  They’re just having a bit of government fun because they’re in charge.  So far the bill hasn’t come up for debate. 

So far.

Putinistas Unite!

            A NRF candidate Michigan businessman Perry Johnson that addressed CPAC made a comment about the fascist Putin that was not received well.  He said that he didn’t trust him and was met with stony silence.[8]  If he had said that in Russia he would be in jail now or have a fall from a tall building.  His anti-China comment that he made a second before was applauded. 

China bad.  Russia good.

Tennessee Jokester

            Let me see, meanwhile in Tennessee state Representative Paul Sherril the NRF that previously wanted to change the name of John Lewis Way to Trump Blvd wanted to know if he could add an amendment to a bill permitting capital punishment by firing squad that would also allow hanging by a tree.  He has since apologized for the comment.

Message delivered.

Justice delayed.

            Trump wants his civil trial in NYC delayed 6 months.[9]  This would take him into the campaigning for President season.  This is typical of Trump’s past legal strategies.  He did the same thing with the classified documents that he stole.  He drags out our legal system as much as possible by…

Running out the clock.
