as noted and amply demonstrated by 'the media', it doesnt matter what policy proposals VP Harris lays out over the coming weeks, economic or otherwise...for one thing, she's not going to stray too far from Bidenomics--imean, ya gotta admit, the post-pandemic economy is working as well as any economy in my lifetime (i'm vintage 1956)....what, exactly, does she need to do?...tweaks and twitches here and there...she's not going to go all "as of yesterday, we're seizing the means of production and confiscating all wealth over $500million because we believe in free medical and childcare for all and that there should be no such thing as sociopathic billionaires like those assholes thiel, musk and bezos"...she doesnt HAVE to say that, the media will report it as that no matter what she says πŸ™„

and color me stunned that the self-righteous misogynist p-o-s lt gov from NC has been known to frequent strip clubs and jagov booths...totally overdetermined--predictable and predicted...what a country, unh? πŸ™„

I demand the North Carolina GOP investigate Mark Robinson for causing a business man to violate the Comstock Act.

Enjoyed your writing as per usual today, with a vintage Planet of the Apes reference, a DeSenseless smack down and for explaining more of Harris' economic plan than will ever be shown on shout-looky-look news.

Speaking of which, I particularly enjoyed your line: "But widely popular measures like those are simply too far out of the mainstream…as policed by group-think media and corporate congressional handmaidens." It expresses so clearly why I am so happy with the glitz TMZ political reporting we get now and why its gotten this bad.

Adding to my joy is my displeasure that the latest version of 'put em in front of a national audience to see who flubs up the most' debatable Debate having David Muir and Linsey Davis as hosts. Two 'interviewers' sure to lob softball questions and never ever follow up a non or way off topic answer with a solid What the hell? Answer my question response.

Lead pipe cinch that neither 'interviewer' will stop jabber jaws from running off mouth garbage that has nothing to do with any/every question. But in the end, the 'news' will find something to have daily round table discussions about, 24/7 that will manage to NOT have anything that REALLY matters discussed. Ugh.
