Sunday June 16, 2013: FINAL Up With Steve Kornacki Tweets

This is the final #Uppers. It's just not worth my time and Lord knows I tried. They had Rick Perlstein on and didn't go into what I prepared for, via his BS attacks and misrepresentations of Glenn Greenwald's articles on PRISM. It was immigration reform, gun control, and more election demographic crap. It's not policy.

Hello. A programming note: Today was a decent show, but sadly, Saturday's shows are kind of a waste of time for me since there is meaningless Congressional baseball talk(without the same caliber talk of reforming it or killing the filibuster) and hour long discussions about New jersey politics and Chris Christie I think are unwarranted. So therefore, I am going to be doing strictly a Sunday series on this now. That is when we talk about real shit like warrantless phone-tracking, warrantless surveillance, and the NSA as we did today.

Today was about vacancies in the DC circuit courts being blocked in the Senate, the filibuster for once, Harry Reid, and the Justice Department obtained access to the emails of Fox News reporter James Rosen accused him of being a likely criminal "co-conspirator" in the leak of sensitive material regarding North Korea, and violating the federal Espionage Act. All this now on #Uppers.

Today's show was about immigration reform, Oklahoma disaster relief, Apple tax shelters, Apple, Congress, tax law, and corporate taxes. #Uppers is now.

Man, I was pissed off this morning. more about that meaningless BS speech from the President that was just bluster because the word is getting out about the forced feedings in Gitmo. This speech seems to give all MSNBC hosts orgasms as if it's the DNC in 2008 again. It was a rather sickening display all week, until today. Michael Hastings called out everyone's BS and showed how like Bush/Cheney this speech was even with some of the more loftier meaningless rhetoric which will have 0 action. There was also a lot of fear mongering about how we need drones or we're all going to die.

Today we are talking about the scandals again. I was getting kind of annoyed that there was a long talk about Obama's pol numbers not going down and how silly all the scandals are as if the AP scandal was small. BS. There was also a talk about Bangladesh worker safety, workers, regulations, and wage which was good. I am not a fan of Karl Smith's neoliberal claptrap though and that comes off now on #Uppers.

Today's #Uppers was on the 3 scandals that the Obama administration is dealing with right now via the IRS, Benghazi, and the one that matters, the AP scandal where the DOJ ignored post Watergate regulations in seizing their phone records because of a leak they knew was going to be released. This problem with overzealousness over leaks from this administration has implications for everyone given what has happened to Bradley Manning and more whistle blowers than any other administration, especially one claiming to be the most transparent ever.

Today was about gun control, NRA, marriage equality, and state laws with regards to all of that as red states try to nullify what gun control is left. Today's was a Mother's Day #Uppers.

The issues discussed today were the death penalty, Innocence project, austerity, Social Security, and taxes. Much better than last week. It was issues based instead of Congress baseball card talk. #Uppers was pretty good today.

Hello. Today's #Uppers was also pretty disappointing. You get the feeling Steve Kornacki still thinks this is 2008 and elections have hope. But we don't have a functioning legislature and it's either going to be about filibuster reform or nothing. Not the baseball card stats of 2014 and specifically not 2016 which always pisses me off talking about it because it's so sensational. It was also about the Syrian civil war and that Israeli bombing in Syria, and for some reason Anthony Weiner.
