The Damage Report: May 9, 2022

Brazil's Far-Right President, Jair Bolsonaro, has already started to push the big lie on election validity following news that Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva will run again in the upcoming presidential race. John Iadarola and Francesca Fiorentini break it down on The Damage Report. Read more here: Lula Launches Campaign to Unseat Far-Right Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro - https://www.commondreams.org/news/2022/05/07/lula-launches-campaign-unseat-far-right-brazilian-president-jair-bolsonaro "Speaking to a crowd of supporters and allies gathered in São Paulo on Saturday, Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva officially launched his campaign to unseat far-right Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro, whose three-year tenure has accelerated the destruction of the Amazon rainforest and intensified the nation's myriad human rights crises. "Everything that we did is being destroyed by this government," said Lula, a globally renowned leftist who served as Brazil's president from 2003 to 2010 and departed office with a striking 83% approval rating. Extreme poverty fell sharply during Lula's presidency, owing in large part to his implementation and expansion of safety-net programs that included cash transfers and unemployment insurance. "There is no greater force than the hope of a people who know they can be happy.""

Sen. Ted Cruz flips the script on how he feels about peaceful protests, during an interview with Maria Bartiromo on Fox News, only when protesters are in front of Supreme Court justices' houses.

Ted Cruz seems very confused about the definition of violence. In a Sunday interview, he characterized peaceful pro-choice protesters standing outside the homes of Supreme Court justices as “violent.” But when Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell called the attack on the Capitol on Jan. 6 a “violent insurrection,” Cruz said he strongly disagreed."

Writing on Twitter, the US conservative commentator tried to mock inclusive language surrounding transgender people giving birth by posting this odd ‘joke’ for Mother’s Day on Sunday, and it immediately backfired: While others pointed out that he makes a similar joke every year, and it is never funny."

Mississippi Governor, Tate Reeves, refuses to answer the simplest question on his future lawmaking plans following the Roe v. Wade overturn during an interview on NBC's 'Meet The Press' with Chuck Todd. John Iadarola and Francesca Fiorentini break it down on The Damage Report. Read more here: Gov. Tate Reeves discusses likelihood of banning contraceptives on NBC’s ‘Meet The Press’ - https://www.wlbt.com/2022/05/08/gov-tate-reeves-discusses-likelihood-banning-contraceptives-nbcs-meet-press/ "Governor Tate Reeves appeared on NBC’s “Meet The Press” on Sunday, almost a week after a draft opinion from the Supreme Court of The United States had been leaked, suggesting that Roe v. Wade could be overturned. It comes months after justices heard arguments on Mississippi’s 15-week abortion ban, and as more Republican-led states pass similar laws. Justices heard oral arguments for Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization back in December and the court’s decision would not be finalized until it is officially published. Prior to his appearance Reeves took to his Twitter account to state that he and other pro-life advocates will continue to push for policies that “make abortion unnecessary.”" Watch Francesca on The Bitchuation Room Sundays at 5/8EST http://www.youtube.com/franifio Follow Francesca: http://www.twitter.com/franifio Become a TDR YouTube Member: http://www.youtube.com/thedamagereport/join Follow The Damage Report on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/TheDamageReportTYT/ Help build the Home of the Progressives http://tyt.com/JOIN Subscribe to The Damage Report YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/thedamagereport?sub_confirmation=1 Follow The Damage Report on TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@thedamagereport?lang=en Follow The Damage Report on Instagram: http://www.instagram.com/thedamagereport/ Follow The Damage Report on Twitter: https://twitter.com/TheDamageReport #TheDamageReport #JohnIadarola #TheYoungTurks

Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis tries to brush off the surfaced citations for why he rejected math textbooks claiming there was CRT indoctrination involved. John Iadarola and Francesca Fiorentini break it down on The Damage Report. Read more here: DeSantis accused textbooks of ‘indoctrination.’ Here’s what he meant. - https://www.washingtonpost.com/education/2022/05/09/florida-banned-textbooks-math-desantis/ "Last month, Florida’s Education Department accused publishers of trying to “indoctrinate” the state’s students through proposed math textbooks, alleging that they were sneaking in material, forbidden by the state, about social-emotional learning, Common Core standards or “critical race theory.” School boards are restricted in using state money to purchase these books. “Some publishers attempted to slap a coat of paint on an old house built on the foundation of Common Core, and indoctrinating concepts like race essentialism, especially, bizarrely, for elementary school students,” Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis (R) said in an April statement. The Education Department said it rejected 41 percent of books — “the most in Florida’s history.” At least 24 of the titles scored high marks from official state reviewers for conforming to Florida standards but were turned down anyway."

A drunk Karen in Canada launches a racist attack on a Filipino family, telling them to speak English and making a child cry. John Iadarola and Francesca Fiorentini break it down on The Damage Report. Read more here: The March of the Karens - https://www.nytimes.com/2021/08/12/t-magazine/white-women-karen.html "In recent years, “Karen” has become an epithet for a type of interfering, hectoring white woman, the self-appointed hall monitor unloosed on the world, so assured of her status in society that she doesn’t hesitate to summon the authorities — demanding to speak to the manager or calling the police — for the most trivial and often wholly imaginary transgressions. The name is not entirely arbitrary: It’s a relic of an older, more conservative America, catapulted from relative obscurity to the 20 most popular choices for newborn girls in 1941 and hovering near the top of the list for three decades. (At its height of fashion in 1965, it ranked third only after those stalwarts Mary and Lisa, which means most of today’s Karens are in their mid-50s.) Ubiquity rendered Karen generic, an emblem of conformity, granting her the safety of being thoroughly average. By 2020, its usage, already in severe decline before its hijacking as a term of mockery, had fallen to pre-Depression levels."

The efforts are evidence of Russian President Vladimir Putin’s miscalculation when he decided to invade Ukraine, Jeremy Fleming, head of Britain’s signals intelligence agency, said in a speech Thursday at Australian National University. U.S. and British officials have said Putin, more isolated than ever, was misinformed by his aides, further stoking tensions."

She’s expected to move next to a high-profile role at MSNBC, according to Axios, which reported April 1 “the deal is nearly final” even though no contract has been signed. “I’m glad that she’s found a soft landing,” says Sean Spicer, who served as President Donald Trump’s first press secretary. “But you can’t then continue to serve. You can’t sit at that podium knowing that your future colleagues are sitting there. … I mean, this is so unethical and wrong.” For the ethically challenged Biden administration, perhaps it’s no big deal. But Spicer calls the decision “unprecedented.” Having waited more than two years before becoming host of “Spicer & Co.” on Newsmax, Spicer knows what it’s like to go from the White House briefing room to the newsroom."
