Right Wing Crackpot to be New Labor Secretary
Right Wing Crackpot to be New Labor Secretary

Replacing Acosta. " Mr. Pizzella has spent years advocating for the interests of businesses.." Pizzella has already been confirmed by the GOP Senate. In the 70's (yeah we can talk about the 70's, right?) Pizzella compared George McGovern, the Democratic nominee for President to Hitler. McGovern, as pilot, survived 35 missions in a B-24 over Nazi Europe, was awarded the Distinguished Air Cross and Air Medal. The right wing incivility, big lies and crazy did not start with Trump! Pizzella has fought minimum wages, workplace regulation, unions and worker benefits. MAGA!

Fox & Friends Host - The Long Con Never End$

submitted by NCD 1 day ago

Ex-Fox & Friends co-host Clayton Morris has left the country amid more than two dozen lawsuits from investors who say he defrauded them in real estate deals involving properties in Indianapolis . Morris and Whalen are accused of covering their tracks by providing fake leases and sending rent checks even though the properties were vacant. Many of the investors say they only discovered the truth when they began receiving code violations and condemnation notices from the city.

Paul Ryan’s Way-Too-Belated Confession
Paul Ryan’s Way-Too-Belated Confession

submitted by artappraiser 1 day ago

From the comfort of retirement, the former speaker remembers that he really didn’t like Trump after all.

By Charlie Sykes @ TheBulwark.com, July 12

Sykes summarizes here what Tim Alberta says in his book about Ryan's history dealing with Trump, noting that

In his extraordinary new book, American Carnage, Tim Alberta captures Ryan’s tortured path from outraged Trump opponent to quiescent enabler. Alberta knows conservativism and he understands Ryan, which makes him the ideal chronicler of Ryan’s tragedy; he recounts the steps and the nature of the bargain in painful detail.

The Reels Brothers Spent Eight Years in Jail for Refusing to Leave It.

Great work, this piece, in pointing out where a major unacknowledged problem lies. Highly recommended.

In the United States today, 76% of African-Americans die without a will, more than twice the percentage of white Americans who do. This leaves their land vulnerable to loopholes in the law.

I know this will sound crazy to some of you, but I really do think Trump has gained a few points with black voters since the election. (He's still in the low to mid 10s.) https://t.co/hNoFPxZAzV

Something it’s easy to forget is that the *marginal* black voter doesn’t necessarily have different views from the marginal white voter even though the average black voter is very different from the average white one.
