Lina Khan’s rise was heralded as an antitrust revolution. Now she has to pull it off
Highlights!
"What these people are doing, it’s just wrong … It’s insulting, because it is intellectually so unjustifiable.”
.
Defenders of [Reagan's focus on price alone] have argued it’s led to decades of cheaper prices for consumers and created more stability for businesses. Khan and her allies have argued, by contrast, that an excessive focus on price overlooks how companies might harm competition in less obvious ways, affecting everything from labor markets to product quality to consumer privacy.
.
I had heard about Amazon shitting their pants when she got appointed, but I didn't know she's going after Meta (aka FaceBook) and Microsoft, too!
.
Since Khan’s appointment, the FTC has investigated or sued to block more than three dozen proposed mergers
.
Other major steps Khan has taken include proposals to ban noncompete clauses in employer agreements the FTC estimates have cost American workers $250 billion a year.

Bail to The Chief
With The Don banished, silenced on Twitter and other social media, and left only to spread lies about his golf game, this was the time to cut the head off the orange snake. After all, the snake was being served up on a platter with the sign: Convict and Banish.
Mitch McConnell, a snake of different color, saw an opportunity to lead the beheading. In his conniving manner, he intimated he would be willing to consider bringing the ax down. But a funny thing happened. Talk of challenging his leadership role spooked him and he joined 44 other Republicans to try to cancel the trial completely. The “Grim Reaper” also wanted to avoid a scenario where his cronies would publicly be on record with their vote, as for now, big business has decided they won’t throw money into Republican coffers for supporting the “Big Lie” and failure to denounce The Don’s actions. (We will see how long that lasts!)
Though there is precedent for impeachment trials after a public official leaves office, the Republicans decided to continue their odious sycophancy. And anyway, what’s all the hubbub about instigation of an insurrection. Just a few dead police officers (two by suicide), 140 injured, confederate flags carried through the halls of the Capitol, a guy wearing an Auschwitz t-shirt, threats to lawmakers lives and and a lively chant of “hang Mike Pence” for good measure. As I said, what’s all the hubbub?
In fact, The Don’s legal team decided to jump ship because he insisted that they use the “they stole the election defense.” Imagine arguing that the election was a fraud, stolen from The Don, so it was his right to incite a riot to take back what was properly his. So in other words, “Yeah, he did it, but you can’t steal stuff from people and not expect someone to fight back!”
Let’s face it folks, if many Republicans are still propagating the “Big Lie,” that Biden is an illegitimate president, and instigating an insurrection against your own government doesn’t rise to the level of convict and banish, then any hope of sanity and unity is gone.
When members of congress do not feel safe in their work place because of menacing colleagues, we have arrived at a dark place.
At a press conference Nancy Pelosi, someone who was a target of the rioters, stated it very clearly: “The enemy is within.”
This quote from A.O.C. directed at Ted Cruz regarding their mutual support of the anti-Wall street populism of the “Game Stop” stock extravaganza says it all.
“I am happy to work with Republicans on this issue where there’s common ground, but you almost had me murdered 3 weeks ago so you can sit this one out,” she responded. “Happy to work w/ almost any other GOP that aren’t trying to get me killed. In the meantime if you want to help, you can resign.” Talk about speaking truth to power!
Cruz, the poster child for unity, response was to cry foul and state that A.O.C.’s anger stoked further division.
Mr. Unity, what have you got to say about fellow Republican, Qanon lady, Marjorie Taylor Greene, who, in an October 2020 video surfaced recently by Mother Jones, said that the “only way you get your freedoms back is it’s earned with the price of blood.”
What’s that I hear? Umm! Thought so. So you can take your cry for unity and shove it up your ass. You are scum. A sniveling, conniving, morally bankrupt opportunist who gives a shit about no one but yourself and desire for power. And that goes for you too, Josh Hawley.
Lady Q has also repeatedly claimed in multiple videos and social media posts that several school shooting massacres were “false flag” events perpetrated by government officials in an attempt to drum up support for gun control laws.
Lady Q has implicated anti-Semitic conspiracy theories that a Jewish owned international investment banking firm, Rothschild, Inc. was somehow involved in creating the devastating fires in California this past summer and suggested the fire was caused by a beam from “space solar generators.”
Cori Bush, a black, newly elected congresswomen from St. Louis, felt so threatened by Lady Q, that she asked for her office, which was located next to Lady Q’s, to be moved.
And then there is Kevin McCarthy, House Minority Leader, making a pilgrimage to Mar-a-Lago, to lick the soles of The Don’s shoes to ask for forgiveness for ever turning against him. McCarthy’s response to the dangerous conspiracy theory Q Lady was to appointment her to the Education Committee, where she will promote curriculum that promulgates theories that the Jews are behind everything that is wrong with America and for that matter, the world. Heil Hitler, sister Q.
Let’s imagine that conversation K.M.’s conversation with The Don:
K.M. Mr. President.
The Don: It’s about time you showed up. I had you on my list of who to primary.
K.M. Mr. President, Mr. President, I don’t know what got into me. Maybe I was drugged by A.O.C. Marjorie told me that I must have been zapped by a mind control laser beam sent by some Jew that rearranged my thoughts. Do you forgive me? Please forgive me, Mr. President. We need you. You are our fearless leader.
The Don: On your hands and knees Kevin.
K.M. But Mr. Pres..
The Don: Shut up and lick.
K.M: But Mr. Pres…
The Don: Shut up and lick…thatta boy.
K.M. Mr. President. Why are you pulling down your pants?
The Don: Remember all that talk about the pee tapes in the Steele report in the hoax Russia investigation? Well they were true!

The completely unnecessary news analysis
by Christopher Smart
November 3, 2020
CAPTAIN DONALD MORONI TO THE RESCUE
Fun Fact: Captain Moroni was appointed chief captain of all the Nephite armies. If, like Wilson and band, you don't know who the Nephites were, don't worry. All you need to know is that they show up in The Book of Mormon, the gospels of the Church of Latter-day Saints, a.k.a. Mormons. Last week our pious Sen. Mike Lee, apparently after some kind of epiphany, was dancing around an Arizona stage to the cool vibes of the Village People with Donald Trump, comparing him in glorious terms to Captain Moroni, who lived 1,000 years ago. “He seeks not power, but to pull it down,” Lee shouted to the heavens and Arizona Mormons. “He seeks not the praise of the world or the fake news, but he seeks the wellbeing and the peace of the American people." Mormon gospel says nothing about rabbit holes, but Lee may have fallen down one. For Trump's Republican Party, ideology is like poison ivy treated only with a balm of wealth and power. And of course, Trump worries not about praise because his sycophants are there with pompoms 24/7. As for the wellbeing of the American people, well, we know where he is on that one — 230,000 dead and counting isn't really all the big of a deal, is it? Captain Moroni? How about Captain Queeg.
MRS. FALWELL AND FORBIDDEN FRUIT — THE SEQUEL
When last we tuned in, the infamous Evangelical, Jerry Falwell Jr., had been caught with his pants down — yes, literally. A risque photo of the boozed-up former president of Liberty University with a young, blurry-eyed woman eventually led to the realization that his wife was having a THANG with the pool boy. (We couldn't possibly make this up.) Not only were the young, buff pool boy and the middle-aged Becki Falwell getting it on, but she confessed that Jerry liked to watch when they did the hoochi coochi. No surprise, when Liberty University's board of directors recovered from what can only be described as a religious panic attack, they told Jerry to pray and get the hell out. Now, two months and much prayer later, Jerry is suing the university because, he contends, they accepted the false claims by the pool boy and his wife, that they were, well, you know, playing hide the Biblical salami. In something right out of TrumpWorld, Jerry alleges that the university has damaged his reputation. Meanwhile, Becki and the pool boy are keeping a very low profile. There is no further evidence of delusional enchantment, but we won't really know until the next episode of “As Jerry Turns.”
DON'T TRUST THEM SCIENTISTS
See, here's the thing, you can't trust anybody these days. Those stupid scientists telling lies about Covid-19. And doctors — you can never trust them — they get paid more when people die. Trump said. Just look at the mess we're in. We can't go to bars. We can't tailgate at football games we can't go to. No wonder a dozen brave patriots who wouldn't give their names protested outside the home of Utah state epidemiologist Angela Dunn for... for saying stuff about people catching the virus and making the hospitals all full and everything. What about our jobs. What the hell is wrong with her. And all those people supposedly dying from Covid, all while it's down to almost nothing. Don Jr. said. The Fake News is making this pandemic into some kind of big deal. Covid, Covid, Covid. That's all you hear. What about something else for a change. Why can't we just go back to football and the days when Trump was Making America Great Again and you could say stuff, like, White Lives Matter and You Will Never Replace Us. Them was the good ol' days.
Post script — Years from now, people will be telling their children and grandchildren that they lived through 2020, kinda like boomers still reminisce about 1968, when there was a war in Vietnam and Nixon was president and the whole country was being ripped apart. They'll say stuff like, people were dropping like flies from Covid-19 and the president was barnstorming around the country saying it was no big deal and scientists warning of danger should be hanged. Creepy guys in camou with guns and women in QAnon T shirts were looking to thump folks who they thought might vote for Biden. And Biden voters were wondering why those raggedy MAGA people wanted a dictatorship. Half of the country had blood in its eye. And the other half of the country had blood in its eye. No matter which way you sliced it, some bad shit was going to come down. If Biden won the election, Trump would call foul and barricade himself in the White House with a supply of Big Macs. And if Trump won, his secret militia guys would be in the streets with hanging ropes. Yep, 50 years from now, old folks will look back at their youth and say, man, that was a time, Covid was killing people off and Trump president and the whole country was being ripped apart.
Well Wilson, what's the worst that can happen? They can't send us to Afghanistan. And Canada is still there if we have to make a run for it. Alright, then, take us out with a song for the stalwarts and then let's hit the bunker.
Oh, what did you see My blue-eyed son? And what did you see My darling young one?
I saw a newborn baby with wild wolves all around it I saw a highway of diamonds with nobody on it I saw a black branch with blood that kept drippin' I saw a room full of men with their hammers a-bleedin' I saw a white ladder all covered with water I saw ten thousand talkers whose tongues were all broken I saw guns and sharp swords in the hands of young children
And it's a hard, it's a hard It's a hard, and it's a hard It's a hard rain's a-gonna fall
(It's A Hard Rain's A-Gonna Fall — Bob Dylan)
