Balloon Juice | Late Night Horrorshow Open Thread: GOP Death Cult Tiptoes Around Its Loudest Speaker

… House Majority Leader Steny Hoyer delivered an ultimatum to McCarthy on Monday: Either Republicans move on their own to strip Greene (R-Ga.) of her committee assignments within 72 hours, or Democrats will bring the issue to the House floor.
The Democrats’ move, while highly unusual, comes amid intense fury within the Democratic Caucus over Greene’s long record of incendiary rhetoric, including peddling conspiracy theories that the nation’s deadliest mass shootings were staged. Greene also endorsed violence against Speaker Nancy Pelosi and other top Democrats before she was elected to Congress.
Last week, Greene was officially awarded seats on the House Education and Labor Committee and the House Budget Committee.

January saw the arrest of Alexei Navalny spark massive protests across Russia and an incredibly brutal response by the authorities. It saw injustice continuing to flourish in Turkey and another blow against women in Poland. It was also a month of fairytales and aqua discos.

Balloon Juice | Late Night Open Thread: Missed Like An Aching Tooth

Maybe it’s my mood, or the fact that I can’t even really risk talking to my neighbors and have to work so I get to wear a mask for 8 hrs a day or that nearly half a million people have died due to his fucking bullshit, 5 people died in an insurrection that he was involved in, etc, etc, etc, etc……..
Sorry, maybe I shouldn’t comment on any thread about shitforbrains and take some solace that my first shot is scheduled for Friday. I’m just pissed at the people put in the electoral college so that land was a bigger vote getter than people, at the people who voted for such a worthless fuck of a human being, at the people who still support him after all this time because they are racist as fuck and look to blame everyone other than the shit they see in the mirror – oh wait, that may be what they like most about shitforbrains, nothing is ever his fault, like nothing is ever the racist’s fault.

Balloon Juice | Sunday Evening Open Thread: Well-Crafted Maledicta

First, let’s look at all the Great Accomplishments he and the cult love to boast about. The wall? If it doesn’t fall down into the Rio Grande by 2025, it will be forgotten by 2026. The economy? Sorry, this shit’s gone to trash with the pandemic. Trade wars? Already forgotten…
Jerusalem and the Great Tremendous Abraham Accords? Give me a fucking break. The Wonderful Very Talented Highly Respected Justices? Depends on what they do, but even so, justices are not remembered for who appointed them. Who appointed Taney? Who appointed Marshall? Nobody cares.
Likewise, you might hate Trump, but history won’t remember most of his stupid tweets, his embarrassing behavior at the rallies, his constant lies and name-calling, the tax break for the rich, “shithole countries”, “fine people on both sides” and defending Confederate statues…

Balloon Juice | Wednesday Morning Open Thread: Festivus In Action

Because 2020, one of my crowns popped off last night, so either I’ll be spending some squeezed-in time at the dentist today, or I’ll spend the long weekend trying not to chew on the side with the exposed metal bits sticking up (which would be easier if it wasn’t a first molar).
Elsewhere, in the GOP version of a Festivus miracle, the Squatter-in-Chief has found another way to throw sand in the financial gears:
Republicans repeatedly refused to say what amount the President wanted for direct checks. At last, the President has agreed to $2,000 — Democrats are ready to bring this to the Floor this week by unanimous consent. Let’s do it! https://t.co/Th4sztrpLV

Balloon Juice | Late Night GOP Clown Car Open Thread: There Are People You Can Count On

A letter to the Post
Back around 1992, then-Attorney General William P. Barr ordered published a Justice Department broadside, “The Case for More Incarceration,” in which prison was described as the best antidote to crime. Mr. Barr repeated in public the report’s bottom line: “The choice, then, is simple: more prisons or more crime.”
Mr. Barr’s ideologically driven bent drove the United States to achieve its place as the nation that incarcerated more of its population than any other: With one-twentieth the world’s population, we held one-fourth of its prisoners. Mostly brown, Black and decidedly poor. Many locked up for years to meet the demands of the “war on drugs” that Presidents Ronald Reagan and George H.W. Bush advanced. No evidence backed Mr. Barr’s claims, and time proved Mr. Barr wrong: Crime ended up decreasing as imprisonment decreased in states such as New York, California, New Jersey and Connecticut.
