Minyard & Minyard Do The Resistance

The news continues to come at us fast and furious.  We discuss the big changes at MSNBC in prime time, and how Tucker Carlson didn't miss the opportunity to toss a bone to his best fans after the subway shooting in NYC.  Also, Florida just asked Texas to hold its beer on the question of "which state will be the most draconian on abortion?"  Don't worry rapists and fans of incest...Florida has you covered.  And Georgia Republicans are poised to nominate a U.S. Senate candidate who once held a gun to his wife's head and threatened to blow her head off...because he played football real well.

We hear the term "Strawman" a lot, and perhaps finally have come up with the best definition of how this concept is being played out every day in front of us.  Also, some alarming polling numbers indicating that a third of our population favors an Authoritarian Democracy rather than the Liberal Democracy that we have so far enjoyed.  We discuss.  Also, we uncover perhaps the most glaring example of Christian hypocrisy disguised as compassion for Ukrainian refugees.

Turns out that psychopath Marjorie Taylor Greene, Aka: QAnon Queen, is doing just a bit of projecting when she claims that Democrats are the party of pedophiles and sexual deviants. She apparently forgot that the internet knows all.  Oklahoma has returned to the "good old days" on abortion, while Tennessee tries to find a way around gay marriage, while all but endorsing pedophilia.  Our Hillbilly Liberal Trae Crowder, himself a Tennessean, shares his thoughts on the matter.

A majority of Republicans think Joe Biden stole the election.  (When you think about it, they're giving a guy who they call "senile", "incompetent" "out of his league", etc. a whole lot of credit for being better than they are.)  41 million Americans believe in QAnon.  22% of the country believes that Sandy Hook was either definitely or possibly faked.  Has America as we know it run its course?

Also, we discuss the latest from Madison Cawthorne, Marjorie Taylor Greene, Ron DeSantis declaring war on Disney, and define the meaning of "Woke".   And finally, just what advantage do transgendered athletes really have?

With all of the issues facing the world being addressed pretty well by President Biden currently, and an economy that continues to steam ahead, conservatives have found their issue: transgendered athletes!  We discuss.  Also, Bill Maher builds another strawman.  This time, he tackles the up side of toxic masculinity.  And are billionaires finally going to be paying a fair share in taxes?

Elected Republicans are generally assholes. This isn't a controversial statement.  But rarely do we have such a constant stream of examples happening over a single weekend. Between Trump again offering praise to dictators, dim bulb Marjorie Taylor Greene's homophobia, Mo Brooks trying to reinvent himself, Indiana Senator Mike Braun wanting to take us back to the pre-Civil War era, and the wife of a Supreme Court Justice being a full on QAnon disciple, it's enough to put anyone in a bad mood.  Oh, and the GOP is clutching its pearls over President Biden saying what everyone on the planet, except perhaps Trump, is thinking...that Putin needs to be removed from power.  God help us if we put these idiots back in power.

The GOP Senators on the Judiciary Committee who actually think that they have a path to the White House...and Lindsey Graham...made complete and total fools of themselves in their questioning of Ketanji Brown Jackson. If there ever needed to be more evidence of the racist vein running through the party, then look no further. We discuss. Our Hillbilly Liberal has some choice thoughts on this as well.

Also, our latest thoughts on the War in Ukraine, and how low Fox News is now having to go in order to find criticism of President Biden.

The former California Governor and world-wide celebrity has appealed via social media to the Russian people and Russian military in a direct message that is trending heavily in Russia.  What is the definition of a war crime exactly?  And signs that the 1/6 Committee is getting close, and that surprises await.

Republican elected officials who are on the record as ignoring and downplaying the Russian interference in our 2016 elections, and subsequently ignoring the extortion of Zalensky and Ukraine by Trump are now offering standing ovations and pressure to go beyond the support already being offered.  This puts them squarely in the mainstream of world opinion.  However, it also is at odds with their right-wing media and its audience.  In an election year, will the Democrats take advantage of this?  Also, there are signs that Merrick Garland is moving towards charges against Trump and his cronies.  This and more...

Fox News and Stephen Miller get caught manipulating the sound from the press conference that VP Kamala Harris and Romanian President Klaus Iohannis conducted over the weekend.  And the moron Miller got the name and country of the European ally wrong, while completely misstating what Harris said in response to a series of questions from the press.   Meanwhile, Tucker Carlson quite simply is an agent of Russia and Putin at this point.  There is no mistaking the fact any longer.  

Finally, is it ethical to change your will if your heirs have developed views or beliefs that contradict your own?  We discuss...
