THE GOP HAS SHAT ON THE DEAD CHILDREN OF NASHVILLE - 3.30.23

EPISODE 165: COUNTDOWN WITH KEITH OLBERMANN A-Block (1:45) The gun cult of this country, led by Fox News and the right wing media hatred factory, has metaphorically shat on the dead children of Nashville. They are trying - at this moment - to use their poor, destroyed bodies, as a rationalization for the purging of the LGBTQ community AND its allies on the fallacious pretext that, as the filth Tucker Carlson said, "The Trans movement is targeting Christians." Simultaneously these sadists are using the murder of these nine-year olds as the final, ultimate excuse to not merely do nothing to stop the madness of Gun America, but to INCREASE the number of guns they own and place them ubiquitously in this society. This cult of death with its AR-15 Murder Machines must be stopped. As always, the first step to halt evil is to call it evil, and do so loudly. And yesterday, two Congressmen began the loud attack on evil: Jared Moskowitz of Florida, and Jamaal Bowman of New York, whom I am proud to say now represents the town in which I grew up. B-Block (24:06) The cornerstone of the Republican/Fox/Gun Cult lie is its perversion of the 2nd Amendment to the Constitution of the United States. To understand that lie you must understand that the Constitution is in actuality a property document that decides what the government can own and what the people can own. Forms of the word "vote" appear just 37 times in it. "Right" and "rights" appear just 15 times. Terms of money and ownership are included 103 times. The Constitution is about OWNERSHIP. Yet the 2nd Amendment does not contain the word "own" nor any synonym for it. And as the former Chief Justice of the United States said, "The gun lobby's interpretation of the 2nd Amendment is one of the greatest pieces of fraud...on the American People..." Let the lying begin. C-Block (42:44) From February 15, 2022, after the shooting at Michigan State. (57:30) Every Dog Has Its Day: as we try to save the country let's save a poor puppy named Junior.
