I talk about Biden's sadly DOA immigration bill and some of the really good stuff in it, the Facebook - Australia story, Ted Cruz's ill fated Cabo trip, Cuomo lying about the number of grandmas and grandpas that dies of COVID in NY nursing homes, my bewilderment at political parties hitching themselves to jackasses, and few other bits

Biden's Immigration Bill, Jerk Politicians, Facebook Turns The News Off

TL;DL - everything is kinda horrible and broken but hey we might be getting some sweet at home COVID tests and another vaccine on the US market.  

Here Comes Impeachment 2.0, At Home COVID Tests, and The Anti-Squad

Well January sure turned out to be a weird month no? This past week capped it off with the rise of meme investing, preparing for impeachment 2.0, and a Texas court blocking Biden's 100 day deportation moratorium.  A heads up - I'll be announcing in the next week changes to my Patreon and Substack accounts going forward, keep an eye out

Meme Investing For Fun And Profit, Impeachment Prep

 The Trump administration is officially over and the Biden administration is gearing up; from the executive orders Biden issued on Day One we get a glimpse into his policy priorities.   Plus, we have an impending impeachment trial and the possible formation of a Trump based political party. 

Trump Leaves, Biden Comes In, What Happens Next?

 The past week brought us Trump's second impeachment, details on the upcoming inauguration, and details on just how stupid (or overly confident) the Capitol rioters were.   I also discuss the upcoming battle over the next stimulus bill and how jamming a $15 minimum wage requirement in it might have poison pilled it.   Don't forget to subscribe to my Substack jenmonroue.substack.com 

Impeachment, Inauguration, Idiot Capitol Rioters

I don't know if this will go down as the week the GOP finally died but after losing Georgia, a riot in the Capitol building, and their leading losing his social media platforms it is on life support

The GOP Loses Georgia, The Capitol Riot, Twitter Boots Trump

 Good news -- it's 2021! Bad news -- January is going to be a hell of a month   We've got a fight over if Congress will approve additional direct stimulus finds (no), a vaccine rollout that's not going so great (eh), the first shot fired in the Vaccine War (yikes), and a last ditch phone call from to get the results of the Georgia election altered (oh boy)   Next week -- the Georgia Senate runoff and the Congressional approval of the Electoral College vote. 

Stimulus 2.0, Vaccine Rollout, Trump's Phone Call

 The last full week of 2020 is officially over! This stupid dumb year is almost over!   We still have insanely high unemployment and no COVID relief package but we do have another vaccine on the horizon.   We also still have Trump and his swampy pardons, plus an unexplained RV explosion in Nashville 

Finally, 2020 Is Almost Over - Weekly Roundup

 In the past week -Barr handed in his resignation -FDA approved Moderna's vaccine for EUA -FDA also approved a completely at home rapid COVID test kit -the federal government kinda botched the Pfizer vaccine rollout -we learned that (probably) Russian state sponsored hackers gained access to federal computer systems and has been rooting around in them since the spring 

Barr Goes Bye-Bye, More Vaccines , The Goverment Gets Hacked

 Bad news - unemployment has once again skyrocketed and the FTC wants to break up Facebook   Good news - the 2020 election legal odyssey has ended and the first batch of Pfizer vaccine is officially in distribution 

Everyone Hates Facebook, SCOTUS v. MAGA, Vaccines Are Coming

 We've made it to the last month of this accursed year! Yay!   However we now have Trump trying to shoehorn a repeal of Section 230 into the NDAA. Boo!   We (finally) got a House vote on the MORE Act and it passed! Yay!   And a federal judge ruled that DACA is to be reinstated in its original form posthaste. Yay but Congress need to do its job!   My Substack is where you will find other fun stuff from this week - jenmonroue.substack.com 

Trump's Section 230 Tantrum, MORE Act Passes, DACA Is Back

Short week that was not short on craziness - from the jettisoned Powell still going forward with the Kraken, a nasty Third Circuit dismissal of a Trump lawsuit, to SCOTUS weighing in on NYC's house of worship attendance caps Don't forget to subscribe to my Substack - jenmonroe.substack.com 

Powell's Crazy Lawsuit, More Trump Losses, SCOTUS Saves The Churches

The Trump campaign continues it push to drag out the election to the bitter end (which is coming soon), the narratives keep getting more and more absurd, and the exodus of talent in the mediasphere continues

Recounts, Lawsuits, The Great (Media) Realignment

It has been two weeks since Election Day and yet the election has not ended yet. It. Just. Keeps. Dragging. On.  Warning - there is a rant in here

Our Neverending Election

 Look at that; we had an election, we got the results in time for the Weekly Roundup, and we managed to not literally set the nation on fire in the process.   Metaphorically, however, the nation is kinda on fire
