I believe in a God who is very tenderly explaining some things to Rush Limbaugh right now. Limbaugh I assume is very quiet and taking it all in.

Texas energy grid has been a quintessential example of privatization and deregulation at the expense of public investment and concern for the common good. Now that it’s caused calamity the good old boys behind it are deflecting, lying & spinning to avoid responsibility.

No, *Sweetie*. That lie goes down quickly. Only 10% of Texas energy was green. This entire situation is fossil fuel free market hell and all the lying in the world won’t change that. texastribune.org/2021/02/16/…

Centrist Democrats have told progressives to sit down and shut up - that only they know how to get power and keep it. From their unwillingness to cancel college loan debt to no Medicare4All, boy is the opposite true. Gear up for a new Progressive Era in America. People are ready.

Oh, he knows. He’s trying to avoid blame. There is going to be a whole lot of “Who knew what and when?” after all this. They’re already trying to lay out their defense.

Yep. Deregulation is like a religion for the free market trickle down fundamentalists - and this is where it got us. Cautionary tale at the expense of millions of people now suffering.

Great one. And here’s another that I love: the Good Samaritan sees a beggar and gives him alms, then sees another beggar and gives him alms, then sees another beggar and gives him alms & on & on. At a certain point, the Good Samaritan asks himself “Why are there so many beggars?”

There should be a word for men who give left-handed compliments to women in the most patronizing way possible.
