Colbert on Dump's border closing

The US Chamber of Commerce notes that trade with Mexico involves $1.7 billion in goods daily and involved 5 million US jobs. So let's close down this necessary trade over paranoia and racism? Seriously?


Ann Coulter v. Stephanie Miller

Debate the Mueller Report, impeachment, the wall and Jussie Smollett. I find Colter's blindness to the many facts already proven by the Muller indictments amazing. If you can sit through Colter's inanity you're a better person than I am.

Reich on progressive populism

The free market is a myth. It was created by Big Money rigging the rules in its favor by buying politicians. Is so doing it decimated the middle class. Capitalism can only work with countervailing power in the people, e.g., unions and the like. When Big Money destroyed the unions there went any equitable distribution of wealth. Progressive populism is the necessary response to restore balance. I appreciate that he recognizes one path to achieving results is researching and spreading the truth, which includes small blogs like mine. See the video for more details.

Zimmerman's song Secret Agent Manafort

On Hartmann's program today. He did two other songs before this one if you want to hear them.

Hate, a most powerful drug

We'll just have to continue countering it with love at every opportunity. That means we can still hate the hateful behavior and the ignorance and sometimes stupidity from which it arises. But we still love Dumpsters as human beings in that our policies genuinely aim to help them in their lives with better wages, benefits, opportunities etc., despite their hatred toward us through misinformation and lies. Yeah, they'll also hate that we love them and want to help them but we'll do it anyway.






Lauren Yakima on World of Dance

They saved the best for last, scoring a 95.7 and moving on to the next round.

Buttigieg: Take back the meaning of freedom

This Dem Presidential candidate has this one right.

Majority beleive Dump obstructed justice

We the people, even former Dumpsters, no longer believe his lying BS. New polls show that only 29% believe Dump when he says he's been exonerated by the Mueller investigation, which means that 71% believe he is full of shit.

House to subpoena full, unredacted Mueller Report

This is what we the people want as supported by electing these reps to the House. Finally,  a House that represents we the people.

A different organizing paradigm

In this article by Mascolo it notes that "multiple strands that weave in and out of each other" requires "higher-order skills" of "constructive differentiation and inter-coordination of skill elements from diverse task domains." It is much more in line with my theurjism hier(an)archical synplexity, and Edwards' et al notion of syntegrity. It is the way the collaborative commons operates, a different organizing paradigm.
