don't hype yet

Without putting a vote to actually do something from that report (meaning that the report can establish a perfect justification for an impeachment action and criminal proceedings), it's the legislative telling look this mfer is a murderous rear end in a top hat and that's it

that it's even floated as a possibility by a legislator is better than anything America could ever hope for

Something about Anez hiring mercenaries to murder her political opposition and then doing a million :'( photo ops from the window of her cell reminds me of Sinema but I can't really put my finger on it.

Stewart has always struck me as a truth-is-in-the-middle kind of liberal. Not that he agrees with centrists on every single thing, more that he lionizes the very concepts of moderation and compromise and as a result isn't willing to accept that one side might just be completely wrong on everything and not worth engaging with

I think the thing that most disturbed him after 9/11, and the thing his show caught on for criticizing, was the "with us or against us" style of politics that Bush And The Gang pushed hard, and then that the Tea Party-era GOP took to another level by obstructing literally everything Obama did even if they agreed with it on principle.

I will forever remember his Rally For Centrism and Moderation back in 2010 when his metaphor for politics was zipper merging on the highway ("you go, then I'll go") because that encapsulated that he thinks both sides have some good ideas and they should take turns enacting them when they win elections.

It was called The Rally to Restore Sanity

good lord

the hawk's "argument" was "this is inevitable so we gotta support it!" That isn't an argument! The guy who said Bush had no real domestic agenda to help anyone and this was just wagging the dog was more or less right!


I'm more than happy to leave Stewart/Colbert/TDS back in the Bush and early Obama era. They are definitely relics of a bygone time.

That clip is pretty amazing because they didn't even find a dumb-sounding anti-war person and the "good argument" they chose for the pro-war side made zero sense. Like usually when the media is pulling this bit of propaganda they'll find some random college student protagonist who sounds dumb.

Guatemala is wild
https://twitter.com/peoplesdispatch/status/1450960019420233731?s=20

quote:

Economic compensation to veterans who served in the internal war was one of the campaign promises of far-right President Alejandro Giammattei in the 2019 general elections, and won him the support of key sectors. However, with the compensation threatened, these sectors have turned against him.

Meanwhile, the same day, hundreds of health workers also demonstrated peacefully in the capital Guatemala City, in rejection of the emergency law for COVID-19 promoted by the national government. The National Union of Health Workers of Guatemala (SNTSG) denounced that the bill would increase precariousness in the sector as it authorizes the government to hire medical personnel without providing job security or labor benefits.

Earlier this year, during the months of July and August, thousands of Guatemalans took to the streets against the mismanagement of the pandemic by the national government and the widespread corruption in the acquisition of COVID-19 vaccines and medical supplies.

Dispute over a mine has also resulted in police attacks on indigenous protestors
