A lot of things happened. Here are some of the things. This is TPM’s Morning Memo.
Biden gave his first State of the Union address last night (check out our liveblog here), during which far-right Reps. Lauren Boebert (R-CO) and Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) did … whatever this is:
“So about that trucker “convoy” that was supposed swarm D.C. en masse Canada-style before Biden’s State of the Union address yesterday……”
No matter how much fertilizer you spread, it’s really hard to grow certain strains of astroturf.
OK - this didn’t make it to the MM
I will admit being surprised seeing GOP pols stand to applaud President Biden. It seems they still retain some shreds of humanity and decency, which gives me hope.
NYT making fools of themselves now.
I’m sure there were some ulterior motives, at least for some who have elections pending later this year.
It really won’t look good not to stand for some of the programs for which 78% of the American people are in favor.
Susie is just lucky she isn’t running this year. Maine has a lot to answer for with her head shaking no during some of Biden’s speech, but she won’t be held accountable any time soon.
ETA:
Do not be fooled.
Well, this is interesting:
Dennis Miller to end his RT America show following Russia’s invasion of Ukraine - PRIMETIMER
LOL: I’m sure the U.S. created more jobs in 1800…:).
Dennis who?
‘Build the Wall’ is a litmus test for stupidity; it was always a dumb idea. Their continued support for that nonsense tells you all you need to know about the intellectual capacity of these two Brainiacs.
So nothing’s changed.
Another Miller Low Life.
This also didn’t make the memo this morning.
Democrats nominate Beto O’Rourke to run for Texas governor | PBS NewsHour
So what are the chances he can win? I love Beto, but is he a strong enough candidate to give Abbott his walking papers? And yes, I said walking.
There used to be a comedian by that name. Long time ago. Can’t be the same guy.
The NYT is really an enigma. In some ways it is the greatest newspaper of all time, but is also makes some really stupid decisions. I just subscribed online last month. The subscription was inexpensive and the NYT gives me valuable information for my work that I cannot obtain from other sources. At the same time, I remain flabbergasted by some of their editorial decisions.
Gregg doesn’t look the type to get rolling papers.
I think it is the same guy.
You misspelled “Karens.”
But he’s not funny anymore.
