Trump world: Fox News segment says FBI 'persecuting' Trump fans, pillow guy antics and Sacha Baron Cohen Trumps Roy Moore

In Trump world today Fox News did a segment with Julie Kelly of American Greatness where she pushed the theory that the FBI is purposefully 'persecuting' Trump fans like Robert Morss of PA. Kelly claims that Morss is going to be held in prison for a year until his trial for nothing more than being a Trump fan and trespassing on the Capitol in the January 6th riots. In reality, there's a 28 page affifavit on all the violence Morss engaged in while rioting on the capitol. Fox News along with other operatives are trying to re-write the narrative of January 6th..
Mike Lindell, aka "the pillow guy" is claiming Trump 2021 is a reality because he's seen lots of signs..
Alabama's Roy Moore just had his lawsuit against Sacha Baron Cohen dismissed.. I thought that Roy Moore was supposed to be a smart guy having served on the Alabama Supreme Court?

Trump CPAC Misfit Compendium: the hypocrites and denialists

It really is amazing what Republicans will say at something like CPAC when they are caught up in the spirit of the moment with like-minded denialists and hypocrites. In this Compendium I have clips from Lauren Boebert, Madison Cawthorne, anti vaxxers celebrating and of course, Donald Trump ranting about everything from windmills to spilling the beans on how he deals with bad polls and at the end the ultimate coping mechanism: "we won"..

Trump talks Ashli Babbit and National Guard in a desperate attempt to spin the Jan 6th insurrection

Donald Trump was on Maria Bartiromo’s Fox News Sunday show trying to distract from the January 6th insurrection by drawing attention to Ashleigh Babbitt who was shot trying to enter one of the last ‘safe spaces’ in the Capitol during the Jan 6th riots. Trump even went so far as to repeat his debunked claim that he asked for 10000 National Guardsmen to be present - debunked by the non partisan organization ‘Politifact’..

Ben Shapiro has a meltdown over San Fran Gay Men's Choir parody song

Ben Shapiro is no stranger to conservative meltdowns over the "radical" left.. in this meltdown Ben rails agaonst a song that the San Francisco Gay Men's Choir posted on Youtube (subsequently removed) that, in parody, where they all sing into the greatest fears of the far right that they are coming for your children. Of course it's a parody. Of course it's done tongue-in-cheek but Ben just needs this type of an excuse to spew how that it wasn't a parody and that's exactly what gay men want to do. The Gay Men's Choir relesed a statement, in essence, looking to instill "fairness and tolerance" about gays in America- a simple statement that they have every right to make especially since gay marriage is federally recognized law now in 50 states. This alone is a good reason that children should at least be aware that marriage exists between two men or two women and telling children this does not constitute "indoctrination" as Ben Shapiro would have you believe..

Biden's bi-partisan deal on infrastructure and how this lays the groundwork for America

The New York Times is reporting that Biden has struck a deal on infrastructure with Republicans and I want to discuss this as well as how big this bill really is-- the bi-partisan $1.2T portion is just a sliver of the bill itself which is actually around $4 trillion. Let's talk about why the Republicans are willing to work with Biden and what this means for getting that portion of the bill done as well as the remainder of the infrastructure bill.. it's a big lift by any stretch. 
In summary, folks, this bill in it's totality is laying the groundwork for an America that really has to win the next 'war'.. and I don't mean war in the traditional sense here...

Gov. Parsons won't make Strickland pardon a priority but will make pardoning people no longer in prison a priority?

It's hard to believe that Kevin Strickland of Missouri has servbed almost 44 years in Missouri prison for a crime the lead witness now says was not done by Kevin Strickland. Strickland was imprisoned when he was only 18 at the time and is now going on 62 years old. 
On Rachel Maddow's show last Friday, Jackson County Missouri prosecutor Jean Peters Baker said "Governor Parsons pardoned 36 people on Memorial Day and most of those people that were pardoned were no longer in prison".. You mean to tell me that Governor Parsons won't make the pardon of an inniocent man a priority but will make it a priority to pardon people no longer even in prison? There's something wrong with that folks...

The race for quantum computing will claim everything "secure" today including Bitcoin

It's an interesting race: on one side, we have China and Russia and even Microsoft and Google all racing to create quantum computing which will claim everything we know as "secure" today.. Our online banking that we use, our password security on every website and even Bitcoin won't be immune to being 'cracked'. On the other side, we have people racing to create cryptography to meet the quantum computing challenge before that happens.

When you consider Bitcoin it has several other weaknessess that may make you question whether or not it should be considered a 'store of value' worthy of trillions of dollars..

Bill Maher is ignoring the facts again. This time it's Biden's college tuition plan..

Bill Maher is on a roll lately --and I don't mind that-- but if you are goimg to make a point, please use facts to do it.. in this situation, Bill is desperate to make the point that Biden's free college plan is unfair in that it penalizes someone who chooses not to go to college by making that individual pay for others to 'go to college'. In reality, Biden is paying for 2 years of community college which should be available to everyone and is going to raise taxes on those making over $400k to pay for it. In some cases where loopholes are closed it's the richest, most wealthy Americans that will pay for this. So no, Bill, 'everyone' (including those who choose not to go to college) will not be paying for those who do take the Government up on the offer to pay for 2 free years of community college. If you can't make a point by sticking to the facts are you really making any point?

Another reason to clean house at the DOJ; Milo Yiannopoulis, Caitlyn Jenner and.. Crackhead Barney

Inside Merrick Garland's Department Of Justice, there's quite a bit of housecleaning that should be done after the NYT reported that under AG Bill Barr, the DOJ subpoenaed Apple to gain access to Congressman Eric Swalwell and Adam Schiff.. and 12 other people including a minor! Let's keep in mind that Congress is a co-equal branch to the presidency.. not a subordinate branch. Not only do we need to purge anyone at the DOJ who did this but also ensure that it cannot happen again.. In the crackhead segment today we have Crackhead Barney who had a rather interesting discussion with Andrew Giuliani.. Caitlyn Jenner who still has problems doing the math on the last election and Milo Yiannopoulis who thinks dogs stopped barking at him after he went ex-gay back in March..

Senator Manchin won't support House gun legislation HR8 because of one point..

Another sad mass shooting makes us again question whether or not we as Americans are doing 'everything we can' legislatively to help prevent shootings like this from happening again.. Until we have done everything we can legislatively with common sense laws around background checks for people looking to buy guns- and not allowing 'loopholes' that end up killing people- can we really feel like we have really done enough?
The House recently passed HR8 that has two Bills within it that seek to tighten the background checks around gun sales but Senator Manchin has said today that he 'doesn't like' the House legislation for one reason which I will go into and why it makes sense on the surface but upon deeper consideration really doesn't make any sense at all..
