Goodfellas, the clown version… Cartoons from Cagle:
Donald Trump just said that he would pardon people who tried to overthrow the government if he's president again. This isn't politics as usual, this is a coup happening in front of us in real time.

Wow. I didn’t think I could still be shocked by anything Trump says, but this is shocking. Supporting those have who used force against our own government could inspire future attacks.

"Excuse me, you're housekeeping, right?"
I replied, "no, but I can try to help you if you need something"

When the snow stops falling in some parts of New England this weekend, forecasters say it may have reached record heights in places like metropolitan Boston — perhaps as much as 30 inches. https://t.co/AYUDNYkp5I

Rupert Murdoch has poisoned democracy in every english-speaking country where he has media presence. He gave US Trump and UK Johnson.

He never got a foothold in the two ES nations that have normal politics: New Zealand and Canada

As always, apologies. Canadian autocorrect always changes Fucker to Fucker. (See?).

.@MaddowBlog: I don't care that former President Trump is issuing a bunch of statements with obvious lies. I do care that Trump's statements with obvious lies apparently reflect quite a bit of anxiety about his legal jeopardy. https://t.co/ZU9nAZfqiL

The Worldodometer says we have had over 900,000 Covid deaths in the US. (John Hopkins always takes a little longer.)
It is hard to believe the American response to this virus could be so poor.
I wouldn’t have thought so either, but the anti-science bile of so many is astounding. There’s always some nutcase anti-vaxxers, but they’ve had a population explosion. Those who have been fine with getting their kids vaccinated against measles or tetanus or diptheria, and others who say they accept biological reality are now ranting against science.
WKRP has got to be my favorite old sitcom. Mary Tyler Moore definitely influenced me but watching that show just was all shits and giggles. Johnny Fever was hot!!!
It was a great show.
So many people checking out, it is sad.
BB, I hope you’re doing OK in this snowstorm! I saw that power’s out for parts of Massachusetts.
