The money-quote comes from one Dennis Kragness, who owns the 2,400-cow Denmark Dairy in Dunn County. He explains his support for Drumpf thusly:

“I’m not in favor of any kind of socialism,” he said. “We’re a capitalist farm.”

A quick search of the Environmental Working Group’s farm subsidy database, however, reveals that Kragness and his family have benefited from about $800,000 in government subsidies. (And that’s just counting the Kragnesses in western WI; could easily be more if the Kragnesses in MN and FL also own a share of the Denmark Dairy, and I’m totally ignoring people with other last names who may have a stake in the farm.)

Dems should hire Merrick Garland to be their lead impeachment counsel

On Tuesday, Politico reported that President Donald Trump’s administration is planning to render to Congress the full whistleblower complaint to the intelligence community inspector general, and the inspector general’s subsequent report on the matter.

The announcement comes after a weeklong battle between Congress and the White House, with administration officials resisting their legal requirement to hand over the information to Congress.

The complaint stems from, among other things, a phone conversation Trump held with Ukrainian officials, during which he repeatedly asked them to help him dig up dirt on former Vice President Joe Biden — and which Trump himself has admitted took place. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) has endorsed an impeachment investigation in response to the allegations.

After spending several weeks in his room, claiming to be “revising” legislation, the PM has finally been told to put his Johnson down. “Stop proroguing this instant, Alexander Boris de Pfeffel Johnson,” Lady Hale shouted upstairs, “you are not working on your deal, and you know you are not.”

The sheepish Prime Minister has been summoned downstairs to explain himself in the kitchen. Mother Parliament has been complaining for some months about the amount of hardened socks hidden under the Government’s bed, and it has finally come time to address the matter.

The decision was unanimous, with all 11 Justices supporting Lady Hale’s assessment that they were “not angry, just disappointed” by the Prime Minister’s refusal to either do his homework or ask his teachers for an extension. The few remaining grown ups in the UK have accordingly sent the children back to the drawing board.
