At least we won't have traitor Tulsi Gabbard. Why she left the Democratic party. Former Democratic U.S. Congresswoman Tulsi Gabbard stunned a far-right Fox News host Friday night, falsely claiming President Joe Biden has chosen his cabinet members based solely on factors of "genetics" and "race" – while comparing Biden to Hitler. In a segment attacking President Biden's cabinet, as The Daily Beast reported, Gabbard, a Fox News contributor, suggested he was "proud" to be "hiring people, selecting people...based on genetics, race, based on your blood, your genes. And where do we see that connection? Well, these are the very same geneticist core principles embodied by Nazism and Adolf Hitler."*** Gabbard shared with Fox News host Jesse Watters her theory that "what we're seeing here is [Democrats'] philosophy, identity politics. And this is one of the main reasons why I left the Democratic Party because you seeing how their agenda of identity politics is directly undermining the traditional Democratic values that were expressed so beautifully and clearly, by Dr. Martin Luther King, that we should judge each other not based on the color of our skin, but based on our character." www.rawstory.com/tulsi-gabbard-says-president-joe-biden-s-cabinet-based-on-geneticist-principles-embodied-by-hitler/Well, perhaps, to a point Biden might have weighed race/gender while choosing, but as a single factor among qualifications. BUT I actually think he just chose qualified people and his entire cabinet isn’t a bunch of old, straight, rich, white men so people have their undies in a bunch over it. I can’t recall a single cabinet pick of Biden’s that isn’t qualified for the post. Perhaps Pete Buttegieg wasn’t specifically overly qualified for Transportation specifically but he is no less qualified than the previous person in that post. I have no qualms with the cabinet. Sometimes when people who have previously had advantages & privileges and they are now considered equally with many others they can’t feel begrudged about it. Get over it. Ugh. Trump made sure his appointments harkened back to the days when white dudes were in charge of everything; yet another time here where I guess for people who have always had power equality looks like oppression.

Carlson is off and running with his special on Jan 6 footage Fox News will air a selectively edited "documentary" about the Jan. 6 attacks based on the 44,000 hours of footage delivered to the network's prime-time personality, Tucker Carlson. Carlson will not post all 44,000 hours for the public to view. Instead, he will make his own edits. The move comes after Carlson spent months arguing that there was no insurrection on Jan. 6, 2021. So, FBI operatives were organizing the attack on the Capitol on Jan. 6, according to government documents," Carlson falsely claimed during a June 16, 2021, show. Speaking about the show, MSNBC's Katy Tur aired the teaser aired on Fox to promote the episode that showed footage of the attack and former President Donald Trump's speech. The voiceover says: "False flags have happened in this country. One of which may have been Jan. 6." www.rawstory.com/tucker-carlson-fake-documentary/

Murdoch admits it was all about the 'green'... This was all in the court documents filed by Dominion.. By contrast, Dominion argues that the internal communications and depositions from Fox personnel "prove the network knowingly spread falsehoods about Trump's loss in the 2020 U.S. presidential election in order to bolster its ratings." In one excerpt from Rupert Murdoch's deposition, "Rupert confirmed that he could tell FNN to stop running Lindell's advertisements, 'But I'm not about to.' ... and when asked why Fox continues to give a platform to Lindell — who continues to this day to spout lies about Dominion — Murdoch agreed that 'It is not red or blue, it is green." ... Lindell brought—and brings— Fox a lot of green. He also predictably brought the same lies about Dominion to Fox's viewers that had been peddled on Fox's 'alternate reality machine' for months."*** At one point, the documents have an exchange between Murdoch and the lawyers where he dodges questions about the network taking the position around the election being stolen. Question "You are aware now that Fox did more than simply host these guests and give them a platform, correct?" Murdoch answer: "I think you've shown me some material in support of that." Question: "In fact, you are now aware that Fox endorsed at times this false notion of a stolen election?" Murdoch answer: "Not Fox, no. Not Fox. But maybe Lou Dobbs, maybe Maria, as commentators." Question: "We went through Fox hosts Maria Bartiromo, yes?" Murdoch answer: "Yes. C'mon." Question: "Fox host Jeanine Pirro?" Murdoch answer: "I think so." Question: "Fox Business host Lou Dobbs?" Murdoch Answer: "Oh, a lot." Question: "Fox host Sean Hannity?" Murdoch: "A bit." Question: All were in that document; correct?" Murdoch: "Yes, they were." Question: "About Fox endorsing the narrative of a stolen election; correct?" Murdoch: "No. Some of our commentators were endorsing it." Question: "About their endorsement of a stolen election?" Murdoch: "Yes. They endorsed." www.rawstory.com/fox-news-rupert-murdoch-mike-lindell/

So we know the right is busy trying to rewrite our history. We know the right is bending over backwards to downplay what happened on January 6, 2021.
Now here they are trying to rewrite trump’s response to COVID in an attempt to protect him at the same time try and blame the Biden Administration for what happened with COVID prior to Joe Biden taking office in January 2021.

The Speaker of the House on the ESG rule.
What the ESG does…
“Environmental, social, and governance (ESG) investing is used to screen investments based on corporate policies and to encourage companies to act responsibly.
Many mutual funds, brokerage firms, and roboadvisors now offer investment products that employ ESG principles.
ESG investing can also help portfolios avoid holding companies engaged in risky or unethical practices are held accountable.
The rapid growth of ESG investment funds in recent years has led to claims that companies have been insincere or misleading in touting their ESG accomplishments.”
You see this stuff and yiu get tired of it.

I hate to agree with anything she says but I agree we have a problem with drugs in this country. Contrary to what she says though the fact that border patrol is catching more is a good thing. Of course we don’t know what they miss but it’s not open borders. We know most come through legal crossing points by US citizens. Also I feel for anyone effected by this but blaming Biden because her kids got Covid stimulus checks? She lost two children to this that’s horrible. She admits they thought they were getting Percocets. Unless they started due to an injury they were using to get high then got hooked. Fentanyl deaths started really climbing in what 2019 or 2020 so it’s not just because of Biden and I don’t think it would be fair to blame Trump for this either. I don’t know the answer but we need to do something. The numbers are climbing every year and like she said it can affect anyone. The only thing I will probably ever agree with her on.

despair, lack of opportunities, depression, untreated other mental illnesses, lack of health care, lack of housing.. all contribute to our drug problem.
if you never think you can afford kids, an apartment, let alone a house, what are you looking forward to?
one article I read today is that china has a severe drop in births.. like, worse than in most famines, natural disasters, and war. new hashtag is "last generation".. so we aren't the only ones suffering from large problems in how our society supports people.

Now the threats come... Former President Donald Trump attacked right-wing organizations who were considering backing Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis during a late-night Truth Social rampage.In a post on his social network platform, the former president targeted the Club for Growth over its supposed determination to back DeSantis against Trump in a theoretical primary matchup next year. "Failed former Congressman David McIntosh and his Globalist friends at Club for No Growth, who fought me all the way in 2016, and LOST, and then fought me again in 2020 Senate Races in Ohio, Alabama, North Carolina, New Hampshire, plus more, and LOST AGAIN, are now threatening to spend money against me early because their new boy, Ron DeSanctus, the man who wants to cut Social Security and MediCare, has dropped so drastically in the Polls to me," Trump wrote. "No Growth Members know there will be RETRIBUTION!!!"Hours later, the former president set his sights on Fox News owner Rupert Murdoch for testifying under oath that he did not believe Trump's false claims about the 2020 election being "stollen" (sic) from him. "If Rupert Murdoch honestly believes that the Presidential Election of 2020, despite MASSIVE amounts of proof to the contrary, was not Rigged & Stollen, then he & his group of MAGA Hating Globalist RINOS should get out of the News Business as soon as possible, because they are aiding & abetting the DESTRUCTION OF AMERICA with FAKE NEWS," Trump raged. "Certain BRAVE & PATRIOTIC FoxNews Hosts, who he scorns and ridicules, got it right. He got it wrong. THEY SHOULD BE ADMIRED & PRAISED, NOT REBUKED & FORSAKEN!!!" www.rawstory.com/trump-desantis-2024-2659484649/

Threats from his allies too. Attempts to destroy the lives of hard working House staffers.. A Trump-allied group is demanding in a new letter to Congress that "Hill staffers and their colleagues" should ice out any staffers who worked on the House Select Committee on January 6, cutting off anybody who helped work on that investigation, according to POLITICO on Thursday."In a letter sent to hundreds of recipients on the Hill, the dark money group American Accountability Foundation listed the names of the former committee staffers and their titles — along with their new employers and links to their firms’ clients — all of whom they urged to blacklist," reported Hailey Fuchs and Kyle Cheney. "'AAF has put together a cheat-sheet below outlining their new firms and the firm’s clients so you can be sure you (and your staff) aren’t inadvertently taking a meeting with a company that hires staff that hates your boss,' says the memo sent by Thomas Jones, the group’s president and founder." "In his letter, Jones noted recent reporting by POLITICO on the January 6 committee staffers being hired by law and lobbying shops," the report continued. "'It is important to remember that even if one of these former J6 investigators is not listed as a lobbyist on this specific account, the billings brought in by the clients listed below benefit all staff at the J6 investigator’s new firm,' he added." Asked for comment by POLITICO, Jones confirmed the letter's authenticity and stood by it, claiming conservatives shouldn't have to associate with people who helped a committee that forced Trump allies to “spend tens — sometimes hundreds — of thousands of dollars defending themselves from an overreaching and weaponized government.” www.rawstory.com/january-6-house-staffers/
