[Autocracy rising, even more.  Two California docs dared cross the hallowed political divide of rope-selling capitalists at Google’s YouTube and give a reasoned criticism of California’s C19 lockdown diktat.  It made it on to YouTube, and then was promptly taken down by its corporatist toadies. (more here)  Meanwhile, Gov Nuisance appears to start seeing a difference between rural and urban counties in his promised new look at how to release the state from its insane economic self-immolation.  gjr]

    Today, the transfer station had its 200th customer at 9:18 AM. One would think that they could handle another 300 cars buy closing time since they got 200 through in 2 hours and 18 minutes. Wonder what they are doing out there until closing time at 3:00 PM? Their webcam shows the gate closed and a sheriff’s unit parked in front of it. Is Waste Management paying for the patrol unit just sitting there?

    I guess we know why Trump wanted his John Hancock on the Covid checks, and why he did not want his check on the Stormy Daniels check.

    CORRUPT LECHER TO HELP SELECT FEMALE RUNNING MATE FOR BIDEN
    “It’s not surprising that Dodd’s lechery and corruption don’t bother Biden. There is substantial evidence that Biden too is a corrupt lecher.
    Biden’s tone deafness in selecting Dodd isn’t surprising either. It’s tempting to say that the man is clueless, but he has always received a pass, so who is really clueless?”

    ‘Portland Goes Full Totalitarian, Will Close Streets To Encourage Distancing’
    “Eudaly channeled her inner control freak Rahm Emmanuel as she crowed about supporting a sustainable future, by exploiting this crisis and not letting it go to waste. Reading the entire statement on the PBOT website, it becomes crystal clear that they want these changes to become permanent, and that the pandemic crisis presents a real-time opportunity for them to define a new normal.
    The three main changes proposed:
    Block off 100 miles of Neighborhood Greenway streets to car traffic, or implement traffic reductions where closures are not feasible
    Install pop-up walking and biking lanes to encourage local trips on foot or by bike.
    Business districts: reserve space so customers can line up while maintaining appropriate physical distancing; create dedicated loading zones for pickup and delivery.
    At the end of the statement, PBOT leaves no doubt about their intent to make these changes permanent and encourage social distancing even after the pandemic ends:

    I agree it will be an non-event. Biden was on the Sunday shows and nary ‘the question’ raised. His campaign has access to all of Biden’s Senate records and have gone through the years.
    What amazes me is with all the interviews on Lamestream media, Joey Fingers has not been asked the question once. Reminds me of Hillary thinking she could go nine months without holding a real press interview. “What, you mean like wipe it with a cloth?”

    Well, I can answer that one. They’d rather get rid of Trump.
    In the Orange Man Bad Wars, people like Flynn are just collateral damage. Rapists like Clinton and Biden are the good guys. American citizens are less important than foreign nationals. Everyone could live for free if we just levered out all that billionaire money. Western history is whatever you feel like it should be. The folks who constructed civilization should be enemies of the state.
    In the meantime, we can all wear fishermen’s hats, sing protest songs, hang out at the coffee shop, and do and think nothing practical or real…a 24/7 poetry slam for simpletons. It’s a sweet deal if someone else pays the tab. On the big screen, the Left’s version of Alex Jones is on every channel running the Two Minutes Hate every hour on the hour.

    The Post’s Adam Entous discusses a 2016 conversation of GOP leaders in which House Majority Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) made an explosive claim. (Video: Bastien Inzaurralde/Photo: Melina Mara/The Washington Post)
    KIEV, Ukraine — A month before Donald Trump clinched the Republican nomination, one of his closest allies in Congress — House Majority Leader Kevin McCarthy — made a politically explosive assertion in a private conversation on Capitol Hill with his fellow GOP leaders: that Trump could be the beneficiary of payments from Russian President Vladimir Putin.
    “There’s two people I think Putin pays: Rohrabacher and Trump,” McCarthy (R-Calif.) said, according to a recording of the June 15, 2016, exchange, which was listened to and verified by The Washington Post. Rep. Dana Rohrabacher is a Californian Republican known in Congress as a fervent defender of Putin and Russia.
    House Speaker Paul D. Ryan (R-Wis.) immediately interjected, stopping the conversation from further exploring McCarthy’s assertion, and swore the Republicans present to secrecy.
