Bullshitters bullshit, that's what they do. Trump Keeps Bragging About America’s Covid-19 Death Rate. It’s Among the World’s Worst.
Great update w/ the WH Coronavirus Task Force. Today less than 6% of Americans tested have the virus, cases have stabilized over the past 2 weeks, averaging 20K—down from 30K in April. Hospitalizations are declining & we’re working closely with states to Safely Reopen America. pic.twitter.com/z9hFwFhmSX— Mike Pence (@Mike_Pence) June 17, 2020
Americans Increasingly Dislike How Republican Governors Are Handling The Coronavirus Outbreak - Because they are not handling it. Also, right-wing government-haters only hate government for others, they like government that works for them. Our current one is only working for a corrupt few.
Lies
Georgia's Covid Improvement was a Big Lie by the Governor Right wingers are finding out that it's a lot easier to go on Fox and lie about vague, opinion-ish things like "cutting taxes is good", "Markets are always the best answer", "Obama is a Muslim", "Her emails", "The Memo", etc. than to have to actually govern and deal with things that don't care about the lie, like COVID and hurricanes or people who see through the lies like the rest of the world.
Israel
Israel has been hammering Iran recently. I'd guess trying to provoke a response to help Netanyahu and Trump. I haven't seen anything in US media about it but just wait until Iran responds. It'll be "Iran Attacks xxxxx !!". We'll blow something up and Trump and Netanyahu's ratings will jump a few points.
At least seven Iranian ships on fire in southern Iran
Media
Which bubble is the real threat?
A good example of misinformation from the NY Post.
Technically the headline is true, Trump did make that claim. But.. the key takeaway for everyone in the real world was that Wallace called out Trump for lying about it. His claim was false.
Next week I'm pretty sure I'll have some Eastern-Indiana Teabagistan native yelling at me that Biden wants to defund the police.
Police State
They are out of control. Trump’s Secret Police whisk Portland Protesters into Unmarked Cars, but allowed Right wing armed militiamen to invade Michigan State House
The best explainer I've found. What the Heck Are Federal Law Enforcement Officers Doing in Portland?
Are we going to wait until a small group of right-wing nut-jobs dress up in their military digs, pull someone off the street and kill them? How can a protester tell the difference?
The best rant.
Portland Becomes the Testing Ground for the Next Level of Trump Fuckery
And while we're a few steps from needing to find decent-sized attics to hide out in, we're damn far down the list of "they came for," getting preciously close to "me."
American Crapitalism
Why does America have such old leaders? One reason, like a business, the cost of winning a new customer far exceeds the cost of keeping an existing customer. Once elected, it's a lot easier and cheaper to win the next race. Name recognition provides enertia, specially here in Teabagistan i.e. Evan Bayh or Greg Pence.
