Summary

Why right wing crises face incompetence or cynical exploitation. Bush and “heck-of-a-job Brownie”; Netanyahu and Gaza; Trump and Covid, or his cynically tossing paper towels at hurricane victims. Also, the new Trump coup part 2 has begun..and it involves Jim Jordan, the Georgia legislature & Fox-so-called-News. Crazy Alert! The Daily Wire is making its own Snow White film to counter what they say is "woke" in the new Disney film. I'll let you know what the racist snowflakes have to say. Are we entering a geopolitical dark age? Geeky Science! We may be on the verge on a major breakthrough in treating cancer. Why it's time to ban right turns on red lights? Not all experiments work out well.
