After the Tacoma boat fire, I have been thinking about why it got so much less attention than East Palestine. It got plenty of attention locally, and it wasn’t ignored nationally. But national media and activists just haven’t run with it the same.
The visuals are as compelling, and the toxicity is probably worse. It will effect more people, because it’s in a city.
It might be as simple as it is in a city, and people have pretty fucked up notions about cities are dirty already. It might be Tacoma specific: A very diverse place, with a certain reputation plays different from a heartland town. There are also some left activists who are obsessed with blaming everything bad on Pete Buttigieg, and maybe a fishing boat isn’t an excuse to complain about him winning the Iowa Caucasus. Maybe I am too cynical.
Anyway, please wash your hands right now. And get vaccinated or boosted if you’re eligible.

Hey Carl, since you’re making an inane comparison, why not compare the Tacoma boat fire to the Gulf oil spill that went on and on and on until it was finally capped off?
At least both involved petroleum.

Gee, there certainly are quite a few Hunter Biden stories this week. The whistleblower story did some damage.
And yesterday we learned that the Hunter Biden laptop disinformation effort in 2020 was led by Tony Blinken.

Scotty “We gotta toss out the impolite negroes’ Campbell resigned the TN legislature over the acknowledged sexual harassment of an intern or three.
House Speaker is now ducking TN media over what appears to be a misappropriation of state funds to move the intern out the building Campbell also lived in and into a hotel for the remainder of the session to cover up the abuse.

@ 5
How much mileage ya think that’s worth?
This week two Biden cabinet officials have been implicated in corrupt political acts:
1. AG Merrick Garland is blocking the indictment of POS Hunter Biden.
2. SoS Anthony Blinken got the 51 names letter about POS Hunter Biden’s laptop being Russian disinformation going, Mike Morell testified, because it would help Biden’s campaign.
So yeah, a TN GOP assemblyman was inappropriate with a pair o’ interns. Although so far there is no evidence that he Bill Clinton’d on the clothing worn by either of them. He also wasn’t forced to pay 800 large to either of them, nor was he disbarred before the Supreme Court. I guess y’all are saving that for next week.

There is a Dumbfuck thinks tossing out lawmakers for DARING to speak up on gun violence is a winning issue because GUN VIOLENCE in another state.

Also, sexual harassment/assault by a legislator and a cover up by the GOP head of that legislature is not really the same as trigger happy random civilian who needs to be found and locked up.

Remember when I had that ‘Whistleblower’ in to testify and it turned out they voluntarily left the FBI and weren’t in a position to have direct knowledge of anything so I waived some papers in my hands about all the depositions of other ‘whistleblowers’ my committee had talked to behind closed doors that we were unwilling to provide any information to for Democrats on the committee or the press?
That was what…February. Was AWESOME FOR MY CREDIBILITY!

Seems weird to me that any Republican would call attention to Tennessee House GOP right now. But it doesn’t just go to how the GOP is continuing to make themselves toxic to Black voters, where this definitely gets traction.
Republican Tennessee House Speaker Cameron Sexton (perfect fucking name btw) who drove the campaign to eject two elected Black lawmakers for a “lack of decorum” following yet another gun slaughter of children, has amassed an impressive record of blatant corruption for a dude seeking a national spotlight.
First we discover that he broke the very same rules he cited in ejecting the two elected Black lawmakers in railroading through the motion. Then intrepid internet sleuthing discovered his official sworn property records proving he has not resided in his district for years. Then his voter registration is revealed proving voter registration fraud. Then stories break of his using his district “love nest” for his serial extramarital affairs. Then we learn that Sexton has billed Tennessee taxpayers for years for travel to and from his “home” that never took place. Then we learn that a senior protege in his House leadership team has been sexually stalking young interns for months with Sexton’s awareness. Then we learn that Sexton misappropriated Tennessee taxpayers funds to relocate one of the stalking victims to prevent investigators from finding her.
It looks like it’s too bad for Sexton that this record extends so far beyond his thoroughly racist and utterly reprehensible campaign to disenfranchise Tennessee voters by taking away their elected representatives. He’d surely have gotten away with that.
But now the national media have scented his pure Aryan blood in the water. And even the local media are calling for his resignation.
Let’s hope his soon-to-be ex-wife gets the fancy house in Nashville.
