Rachel Maddow on (and an interview with) the new attorney at SDNY. I think I have it starting at the right place so it will only be 17 minutes, not 38.

The Republican Accountability Project made one of these for each Rep who voted to impeach and each Senator who voted to convict. I just picked Kitzinger because I figured after that letter his cousin Karen wrote everyone would recognize his name.

Really American

Meidas Touch – Parody Parler ad

Now This News – something positive

John Fugelsang as “Jack Haze.” It was only a matter of time before marijuana decriminalization/legalization got into the videos.

Beau on windmills (for a start – and more on Texas)

Meidas Touch – Ted Cruz

Also Meidas Touch

Lincoln Project – “Oath”

Now This News – Mayor of Austin, TX (Yours, Pat?)

Now This News – Cori Bush

John Pavlovitz on “Cancel Culture.” It’s a big story in the world of cable, so it’s likely worth being aware of.

The Alt-Right Playbook – How to Radicalize a Normie – This is about 3x as long as the others – for good reason just alerting you.

Well, alrighty, then. “Q-Anon Anonymous” – a meeting.

Beau on Trump**’s “Love Letter” to McConnell – He can hardly keep a straight face. If you saw this yesterday, sorry. I bumped it (or tried to) to today in favor of one about staying alive in freezing weather with no power. But it was up for a while Again, sorry.

Meidas Touch – from its podcast

Robert Reich on “Bipartisanship”

Axios – You gotta love this:

Trae Crowder

Drew Morgan – “Ouch” satire

Beau on some climate news

I try not to do 2 by Beau on the same day – but this one is different – it’s on how to stay warm with no power with a minimum of danger (at least the first part is) and it needs to be shared.

Keith from yesterday

Just so you know, in case you missed it, the Lincoln Project is having some issues (apparently one of their members turned out to be a little too Republican – Steve Schmidt has left them over it.) So nothing new from them today – and it may be a while, if ever.

Meidas Touch – What is really frustrating to me is the number of (very vocal) people on our side who have no idea what just happened.

Now This News – It’s probably more important to remember the ones who voted to acquit … but this list is so much shorter.

The Damage Report – Nikki Haley

The Alt-Right Playbook – There’s Always a Bigger Fish

Founders Sing – Not a song, but they’re not asking for money – and they’re looking at us.

John Pavlovitz is starting a new, free video course on life skills – this is the trailer, so to speak. For more info, click on the YouTube icon in the far right of the bottom controls line.

John Fugelsang does his impression of Jerry Falwell Jr.

Meidas Touch parody (“Drivers License”)

NBC – TODAY – posted without comment

Nancy’s remarks on MCConnell. She is REALLY angry. This is the nearest I have evre heard her to incoherent (not that it’s very near, but less organized than usual.)

Parody Project – As a big fan of Gilbert and Sullivan, I really love this one. (TC, close your eyes and pretend the picture’s a dog.)

This should help to rehabilitate cats’ image from the parody.

Beau – This has kind of gotten lost in the trial news, but if it should happen, it could be good for us.

Keith from yesterday – I love Keith, but he is not being realistic about this.
