I already announced I would write a post for International Women's Day instead..

I had enough videos about Rudy Guiliani acting silly in Closer looks at the January 6th Committee hearings from Meyers, Colbert, Kimmel, and Noah, so I left this on the cutting room floor.

A tweet comparing Tulsi Gabbard to AOC made me wonder if they were that close politically. On a left-right axis as calculated by Voteview (DW-Nominate), they're pretty close.  On the other hand AOC and the rest of "The Squad" are much more "down" or anti-Establishment than Gabbard.

Hipster heaven.

I only left two comments on other blogs last month, both on the same politics blog.

My comment on Wingnut Wrapup for January 10, 2022.

I haven't read one of these since before the pandemic hit and I can tell the effect of QAnon on what passes for American conservatism. These statements look like rejects from Weekly World News, not the National Review in a foul mood on a bad day. I expect to find Bat Boy here.

My comment on What They Really Fear.

You're right about Republican politicians fearing a Night of the Long Knives. I'm worried about a version of the White Terror from the Spanish Civil War.
