A Fiery Kamala

... is a very good Kamala

1. She applauds the Tennessee Three for using a bullhorn, which will likely mean we're going to see lots of MAGA assholes show up at public assemblies with bullhorns, just to be asshole-ish about it.
2. And that will just as likely be the perfect opportunity for lots of Press Poodles to do lots of tongue-clucking, because of course it's all Kamala's fault that MAGA assholes are behaving like a buncha MAGA assholes - which also makes for a perfect opportunity to Both-Sides the shit outa this thing.

Just remember, this is the lady who bested Bill Barr, and made Brett Kavanaugh cry. If you think she's not up to the task, then you're only fooling yourself.

So fuck all that

other shit - 

go get 'em, Veep

It's About Time

NYT:

Time magazine on Thursday named President-elect Joseph R. Biden Jr. and Vice President-elect Kamala Harris as its persons of the year, citing the weight of the pandemic and racial injustice that will be shouldered by the history-making Democratic ticket.

Bruce Springsteen, who narrated a television ad for Mr. Biden during the campaign, revealed the magazine’s choice at the end of an hourlong television special on NBC.

Mr. Biden, 78, the former vice president under President Barack Obama, and Ms. Harris, 56, a U.S. senator from California who became the first Black woman and the first Indian-American elected to the vice presidency, will appear side by side in a portrait on the magazine’s cover on Dec. 21.

They edged out frontline health care workers (along with the nation’s leading infectious-disease expert, Dr. Anthony S. Fauci), the racial justice movement and President Trump for the distinction.

“Time has always had a special connection to the presidency,” Edward Felsenthal, the editor in chief and chief executive officer of Time, said Thursday night.

Mr. Felsenthal noted that it was the first time that the magazine had chosen to include the vice president as a person of the year.

“Person of the year is not just about the year that was but about where we’re headed,” he said. “The next four years are going to be an enormous test of them and all of us to see whether they can bring about the unity that they promised.”

Notice the little razor blade in the apple. That's Time Magazine and NYT trying to inoculate themselves by including "all of us", but the writing is pretty clear that they intend to do the usual Press Poodle bullshit, telling us that everything bad that happens - and everything good that they think should happen but doesn't (at least partly because they'll refuse to point out GOP purposeful obstruction) - that it's all Biden's fault.

Corporate Media will pay David Brooks and Bill Kristol and Matthew Dowd (et al) a ton of money to shit on the Dems and ask repeatedly "Why won't Biden lead?" while they ignore liberals, and except for a few who pop up once in a great while on Rachael Maddow, keep "the left" completely off camera.

(sorry for that pun in the title - I'll go ahead and show myself out now)
