1 rich Libsyn https://www.libsyn.com 90 600 Well, we made it through July 4th weekend! The “Great American State Fair” continued to frustrate and disappoint the weird few who insisted on attending. Or trying to, anyway. Fake “pavilions” filled with half-assed “exhibits” that lots of states wanted nothing to do with. Even so, some were made to look like they were participating, even when they weren’t. And the look was not good! All-in-all, we should just be glad they didn’t burn anything down. Greg Dworkin was here to remind us that there was plenty of other stuff happening this weekend, anyway. Bribery, marching Nazis, FIFA corruption. You know, the usual. Speaking of those marching Nazis, know why it was so easy to get so many of them into DC on July 4th? Probably because they were already there. Interesting developments in the Michigan Senate race, where state senator Mallory McMorrow ended her campaign, leaving just two main Dem contenders in the race. Where will her voters go? Not easy to tell. They’ll probably all turn socialist! But not for the reason you might think: i.e., that they’re socialists now. They probably just want someone who’ll kick a little ass. And there are a lot that need kicking. Meanwhile, the regular onslaught of corruption stories continued unabated. Along with a bunch of people Trump claimed were jailed for “fixing their cars,” he also pardoned (by strange coincidence) yet another Perv-A-Lago fraudster, this time one maybe tied to a wee bit of murder. And just for a bit of semiquincentennial fun, what movies best capture America? Well, hold onto your Uncle Sam hats, because America’s Poet Laureate might just be the creator of Beavis and Butt-Head.
