We really know what they mean
"DEI" is the new euphemism of the moment for the racists and idiots
That was quick
It was only a few hours for the far right and MAGA nutjobs to find a hundred ways to blame anything but an accident for the Key Bridge collapse. This cute one is from perpetual failed Republican candidate Anthony Sabatini in Florida:
Maria Bartiromo managed to connect it to the “open border” or some stupidity. We can always count on the idiots of the MAGA universe to find a way to blame Biden or a person of color for everything. In one sense its funny, but in a real one it’s infuriating and a perfect example of how lies and racism are the basis of the entire movement.
Makes me want to scream. So I had my friend Cliff Schecter on the show this week so we can just kind of scream together and laugh at all of the insanity. From Ronna McDaniels not even lasting a single Scaramucci at NBC to Trump selling MAGA bibles and somehow not being struck by lightning there was a lot to talk about this week.
This isn’t normal
Underneath the mocking is a serious issue though. An entire political movement in modern America has become detached from reality. We don’t even share the same facts anymore and elements that should be guarding our democracy are bending over backwards to try and act like its all normal discourse.
McDaniels hiring at NBC is the perfect example of the hunger by legacy media to act as if she’s just a normal former party leader and was not an active participant in trying to overturn the election. She was on calls with Trump assuring alternative electors and elected officials the RNC would get them lawyers to protect them in their attempts to resist certifying the Electoral College results.
She isn’t just another ex-party operative. Now NBC is paying a heavy price for the stupidity and I have no sympathy to offer them at all. At some point they need to wake the hell up to the reality of our time.
If they don’t wake up we will all pay.
The show
Cliff joins and you should follow him too
It only took about ten minutes for the lunatics on the far right to blame everything from DEI to the border for the accident at the Key Bridge in Baltimore. They have mastered the outrage cycle and that wasn’t even one of the craziest stories this week! Political strategist, podcast host, and bestselling author Cliff Schecter joins the show this week to discuss all of the craziness. You can find him on YouTube at https://www.youtube.com/@cschecter and all the usual places.
I love Cliff so made it a point to watch this interview. He’s got it together and I believe is making a difference. It would be easy to get lost down the rabbit hole of despair but there are voices of reason around if you know where to look. So thanks for having Cliff. You’re doing a great job of getting the word out. By the way, why not have Ben Meiceles on your show since you’re on the Meidas Touch Network? They’re up and comers with significant contributors such as yourself. Just a thought. Have a good weekend.
Geez, Fred. I was trying to work out while listening, & I could barely catch my breath from laughing so damn hard. Ronna McDonald etc. I appreciate that you talk about the hard & serious things w/ your guests, & it can still be fun as well as informative. It’s nice to have a break during this shitstorm. LOVE your show.
