  • Agriculture Secretary Brooke Rollins said on Friday that the department was looking into program to help “mitigate any economic catastrophes that could happen to some of our farmers.” Asked whether that would include direct payments, Rollins said, “We’re working that out right now.”

    So they’re looking into a mitigation program, they’re working out a payment system… now? After annihilating government programs, starting a trade war with everyone and wrecking farmers’ prospective income?

    Thank goodness the US Govt is now in the hands of such professional, forward-thinking people who care about ordinary Americans and businesses. Such a relief after those radical lunatics who used to run things into the ground!

    We already saw the cognitive dissonance of people gurgling the last words “COVID’s a liberal hoax” as they drowned to death on their own bodily fluids filling their lungs. Literally no amount of reality can sway people who just won’t accept it.





  • IIRC, Chauvin made the plea deal on federal charges so that he would do his time in the relative safety of a federal prison.

    Which would mean that if he gets pardoned on federal charges, then he would have to serve out his remaining state time in a state pen… the very thing he wanted to avoid. He would probably be dead in under a month unless he spent the next decade or more in solitary confinement for 23 hours a day (like he did in his pre-trial detention).

    Which would be a crying shame, of course…
