“F you, if you can’t handle the truth!” spews a smug Joe Scarborough, who readies his hundreds of viewers for the truth bomb he’s about to drop: “This version of Biden, intellectually, analytically, is the best Biden ever.”

BOOM! Can’t handle it? EFF YOU!

If you don’t believe that this senile warmonger, as Chas Freeman called him, is the best Biden ever, you’re actually among the majority of the country, even the majority of Democrats, but you’d all be wrong, because, and here’s the proof, Morning Joe adds: “If it weren’t the truth, I wouldn’t say it.”

And if you continue with the theme of believing the words of raging propagandists, you’re gonna feel really bad for John Kirby, who wishes so hard that he had the strength to stop flooding Israel with weapons. Hear him refer to the millions of starving Palestinians as if the food shortage is some unavoidable natural disaster, rather than his personal handiwork.

But it’s not all good news for the warmongers…today we’re pouring one out for one of America’s most dangerous (and most bipartisan) neocons, Victoria Nuland. Her sudden exit comes just days after she threatened Putin (with whom, if you recall, the US is not currently engaged in war) with “some very nasty surprises on the battlefield in 2024.” No word yet if that’s the reason for her surprise departure.

It’s a busy week, with even some visits from Useful Idiots favorites Brian Stelter and the Chuckster. You won’t want to miss it.

It’s our Thursday bonus episode. Let us know in the comments what corporate media monologues, interviews, or anything else you want to see on the next Thursday Throwdown.
