Great piece from @wajali.bsky.social on all the "hypocritical outrage" from the GOP over the Hunter Biden pardon. He brings receipts:
Please Spare Me All Hypocritical Outrage Over Hunter Biden's Pardon
The same movement that supports and celebrates a criminal, vulgarian insurrectionist who pardons his criminal friends now feigns outrage. Here's me playing the world's smallest violin.

Can you repost and follow to help me reach others?

I highly recommend the HBO two part documentary on George Carlin.

The most powerful segment was the last 15 minutes where they dubbed many of Carlin's observations about the political power structure in America over scenes of January 6 & other more current events.

He was right.

Is this true?

How did they measure who was “engaged?” Were people “not engaged” because they had decided already?

Still, it’s hard not to think that some people just shouldn’t be voting if they’re not seriously engaged.

Democrats won 'highly engaged' voters and struggled with everyone else in 2024
The final NBC News poll showed Vice President Kamala Harris losing voters who don’t follow politics closely by double digits.

So, RFK Jr wants to get rid of processed foods.

A reasonable thought. I eat a lot of raw stuff.

Only problem? IT'S EXPENSIVE. That's one reason so many people eat the junk.

I may be wrong, but this might adversely affect a lot of folks already unhappy with inflation.

Here’s a kind of dark, but somewhat provocative, classic take from George Carlin:

We need a liberal marketing firm that can micro-target every American on any platform with the exact messages that speaks to THEIR concerns.

Google knows what I ate yesterday and suggests things I might like today. It’s no longer rocket science.

We have good messages. They need to see them.
