We can make light of the obvious and transparent stupidity of FOX, OAN, Breitbart and Newsmax, but make no mistake, there is nothing funny about their racist propaganda. It is designed to create hate and fear in people and then proceed downward from there.
One of the biggest myths of authoritarianism is that it is "good for business." With this in mind, the Republican Party's persona as the "party of business" begins to look more and more like a facade.
The Police Benevolent Association of the City of New York claimed that 10,000 officers would resign if forced to comply with Mayor de Blasio's vaccine mandate. The real number turned out to be tiny.
The move to prevent Medicare from negotiating with Big Pharma and giving that job to for-profit companies was a stroke of greed-genius that would have made Gordon Gecko giddy with pride.

Joe Manchin is now infamously quoted as saying he "Does not want to see us becoming an 'Entitlement Society.'" Too late Joe, we're already there and have been for many decades.
Molnupiravir, another pharmaceutical mouthful, sounded like a nice breakthrough and very needed. Good news for a change. But it turns out to exceptionally good news for the executives and shareholders at Merck—from a profit standpoint.
We have lawmakers and office holders who technically do not qualify for their posts: they violated their oaths of office. This is the law of the land, Section 3 of the 14th Amendment of the Constitution.
To quote Dennis Miller, "I don't want to go off on a rant here." No, really, I don't. I could go on for a long time on the negative factors of Facebook and the damage this company has done. Truly, they have a lot to answer for. But there is more to this.
