Some Things "People Should Look Into"

Here's Seth Meyers on the latest chaos unleashed by neo-fascist moron Donald "Rump" Trump, including his tinpot authoritarian attacks on a free press:



BONUS:  Looks like another Republican Senator is "looking into" what Rump is doing, but the question is, "So, what are you going to do about it, Senator?" Or are we in "thoughts and prayers" territory?

Mr. President:
Are you recanting of the Oath you took on Jan. 20 to preserve, protect, and defend the 1st Amendment? pic.twitter.com/XLB7QXM3bQ

Question of the Day

Posed by Walter Pincus:

When will journalists take responsibility for what they do without circling the wagons and shouting that the First Amendment is under attack?

Clearly, not an outlook shared by some at the New York Times, and CNN's Jake "Tippy" Tapper, self-appointed guardians of journamalistic purity.

Buck: No Separation of Church and State

Colorado Rethug candidate for Senate Ken "*uck" Buck has opined on the issue of separation of church and state (you know, First Amendment), joining with tea bagger luminaries Sharron "Obtuse" Angle, Christine "No Dildos" O'Donnell and no doubt countless other American talibangelists in denying this fundamental premise of American democracy. While there has always been a push and pull with those, mainly on the right, who want to have (Christian) religion integrated into every aspect of American civic life, this election cycle seems to have brought out more than the usual number of numbnuts running for office who claim adherence to the Constitution but who have no real idea of what the Framers intended and what the courts have upheld over the course of two centuries.

We would be happy, if he doesn't "agree with the concept of separation of church and state," to direct Mr. Buck to a few countries where no separation exists and see how comfortable he is living there.
