Pinocchio Tucker: Jan. 6 Insurrectionists ‘Sightseers’

One of the big stories today came from Tucker Carson’s Fox News crap-fest last night, using selected portions of the Capitol building’s security tapes from Jan. 6 — Kevin McCarthy gave Carlson full access to the footage — and the Tucker-turd went full bullshit, calling the insurrectionists/rioters as “sightseers,” and not bloodthirsty, coup shitheels.

Climate-Change Melt — ‘When It Rains, It’s Increasingly Likely To Pour, Just Because Of Basic Thermodynamics’

Drizzling rain in way-chilly wind this late-afternoon Tuesday here in California’s Central Valley, continuing this winter’s wettest-in-a-while season of storms and weather-whatnot (chaos and turbulence). Despite the way-wet environment, we’re not that bad off  where I’m located — a goodly chunk of the state is snowbound, along with all that implies, like no power and…
