Friday? (Friday) Friday!

by Carl Ballard — Friday, 10/1/21, 7:59 am

I haven’t been paying much attention to the Seattle mayor’s race since I already know who I’m voting for. But my goodness, Bruce Harrell is so bad on homelessness. Come on.

That said, I do think that as COVID-19 decreases in the region (touch wood) the capacity of some groups dealing with homelessness will increase. So the visible to non homeless people parts of homelessness may decrease regardless.

Anyway, please wash your hands right now and for goodness sake get vaccinated if you haven’t yet.

    Until yesterday when Governor Newsom signed the new law, California was shitty cop paradise. Sport-murdering cops faced little accountability because, unless they were convicted of a felony, they kept their state issued certification. From yesterday forward when California cops receive a sustained finding of serious misconduct they will automatically lose their certification. And they can no longer simply quit and move next door.

    • forgets there are 100 senators, not 50
    • forgets that there are 435 representatives, not 210

    Bernie Sanders
    @SenSanders
    2 senators cannot be allowed to defeat what 48 senators and 210 House members want. We must stand with the working families of our country. We must combat climate change. We must delay passing the Infrastructure Bill until we pass a strong Reconciliation Bill.

    Jayapal says her crew is prepared to walk away if they don’t get what they want.

    Why not Sinema, too?

    en. Kyrsten Sinema’s political allies have some free advice for anyone trying to bully the wine-drinking triathlete into supporting President Biden’s $3.5 trillion budget bill: She doesn’t play by Washington’s rules — and she’s prepared to walk away.

    Pelosi might not hold a vote today. If not, there’s nothing for YLB to cheer for.

    Not to be disappointed, YLB has an alternative cheer tucked away in her cleavage:

    That’s alright
    That’s OK
    We can look foolish

    That’s 400,000 illegal aliens just in October.

    Appeals court keeps Title 42 in place as DHS preps for up to 400,000 migrant surge

    How will Deathfrogg ever get a job with that much competition by similarly poorly educated new residents of the US?

    OTOH, the polling of illegal aliens is the only way Biden can ever see his poll numbers improve.

    Pelosi might not hold a vote today…

    On Manchinema’s “bipartisan” bill that no Republicans will vote for.

    That’s why Sinema can’t “walk away”. Because she can’t deliver votes. And she only has the one to withhold. It might make her your Queen-for-a-Day. But neither you nor McConnell will back her down the line. And she’s there for at least four more years.

    For all the shedding of tears, I have no problem with keeping this spreader out of the classroom and encouraging her to pursue her secret passion of tending bar in a MAGA dive. Who knows, the tips might be more than her teacher’s salary.

    Watching videos like this, you almost never hear a good reason for not getting vaccinated. Just a lot of generalities and platitudes. And “freedom.” It’s always about their “freedom” (and fuck you).

    @2 The shitty Trump lawyer is easy to understand. Why a lawyer of Dershowitz’s reputation would resort to this

    “The suit also draws on a legal theory—that Dominion is a government actor by virtue of its role in providing technology for elections—first put forward by Dershowitz for Lindell’s February lawsuit against Dominion.”

    is harder to understand. (Because, of course, the First Amendment only applies to government actors.) In first-year law school, an argument like this is referred to as “breaking new legal ground.” In second and third year study groups, it’s called a shitty argument.

    “Jeremy Brown, a former U.S. Army Special Forces soldier who ran for Congress as a Republican in Florida in 2020, was arrested and charged for his role in the violent riot at the Capitol on Jan. 6. … Brown was wearing ‘full military gear,’ according to the complaint, including a helmet, radio and tactical vest, and he had visible ‘large surgical trauma shears’ tucked into his vest. … Brown also coordinated travel to the Capitol in December and January, according to the FBI documents, which included messages he sent to others online saying he had an RV with ‘plenty of gun ports left to fill’ and instructing people to follow his ‘Ground Force One departure plan’ to come to his house to ‘route plan and conduct PCIs (Pre Combat Inspections).'”

    I predict a jail sentence will advance, not harm, his political career. Given Republican voters.

    The money they save by not patronizing restaurants instead can be confiscated from them by a cigarette tax.

    There’s the snag: Today in New York City, roughly 72 percent of black residents aged 18-44 have not taken the novel vaccine, meaning now roughly 72 percent of black residents aged 18-44 are banned — banned — from entering dining establishments.

    Statewide, 53 percent of black residents aren’t vaccinated, compared to only 44 percent of white residents who have declined the shots…

    NPR today began softening the beach for the reality assault liberals will have to accept. Some dude claimed – correctly, actually – that $1.5 trillion is actually an astronomical amount of money.

    So the spin is that Democrats won $1.5 trillion in new spending for people who suck the government tit for free dough. Not that it’s only a quarter of what Biden asked them to provide him.

    Manchinema 1
    Biden 0

    Cowards live in fear. It’s what brands them as cowards.

    But, but, but: Progressives say they’ve already compromised from a much higher number — $6 trillion — to the $3.5 trillion bill.

    They’re afraid of helping pass the $1.2 trillion bill and then having their priorities abandoned if the $3.5 trillion bill never makes it to the president’s desk.

    Those who claim that a meeting in the middle is standard are those who don’t have a better argument.

    A stronger president would have given Bernie a stiff cuffing.

    Women’s sports suck.

    NWSL Commissioner Lisa Baird said, “This week, and much of this season, has been incredibly traumatic for our players and staff, and I take full responsibility for the role I have played. I am so sorry for the pain so many are feeling. Recognizing that trauma, we have decided not to take the field this weekend to give everyone some space to reflect. Business as usual isn’t our concern right now. Our entire league has a great deal of healing to do, and our players deserve so much better. We have made this decision in collaboration with our players association and this pause will be the first step as we collectively work to transform the culture of this league, something that is long overdue.”

    Professionalism means business as usual. Not sitting out the championship match because your boyfriend broke up with you.

    Yet another reason, YLB, that nobody takes you seriously.

    Roughly similar to the percentages of Americans who didn’t vote for Trump and those who did, but with lesser moral implications.

    You mean somebody besides Exxon, Jeff Bezos, and the Waltons?

    Such as waitresses, child care workers, caretakers, single mothers, delivery drivers, and the people who somebody will wipe your ass in a nursing home?

    Republicans don’t spend less taxpayer money, or borrow less. They just give it to different people. Mostly themselves.
