He can do whatever he wants. The media would be wise not to cover it. Nothing would piss Trump off more than to have his departure ignored.

While there seems to be a steady drumbeat for a quick impeachment, Democrats are floating the possibility of putting off a trial for several months. Getting the votes to convict will not be a cakewalk regardless. Maybe Pelosi will cave, as usual, and figure a censure will suffice. Democrats never go for the jugular, so why start now….

Manchin will be the gift that keeps on giving….just the excuse the Democrats need to get nothing of substance that actually helps people done.

Goes to demonstrate they can move quickly when they want to. If they can impeach a President in a couple of days, why did it take them many months to approve a miserly $600 to desperate Americans? Frankly,  January 20th is on the horizon. I do not give a shit what happens to Trump from here on out.

Took selfies, too.

He won’t resign and the Democrats won’t move to remove him or anybody else. The Senate is 50/50. They would never get the 2/3  needed to get rid of him and Texas is still pretty solidly red and a petition asking him to resign wouldn’t be worth the paper it’s written on.

Trump has already sort of backed down saying there will be an orderly transition. I predict nothing much will happen in the next two weeks and he’ll be on the links in one of his clubs soon.

Without a doubt one of the most racist individuals I’ve ever met was a cop. Years ago I worked in a travel agency. Next door was a small gift shop owned by a cop and his wife. He would come into the travel agency and sit for hours at a time shooting the breeze. His favorite word started with “n” and he would fantacize about various ways of taking…[Read more]

He’s behind it, and he’s encouraging it. He is delusional enough to think he can change the outcome of the election this way.

They’ll just say the Republicans have put the country in too large of a financial hole and we can’t afford it. Won’t stop them from ramping up the war machine and being generous toward their deep pocket donors, though.

There’s an anti Trump FB blog someone signed me up for. People there are jubilant thinking Happy Days Are Here Again. Must have short memories. Obama didn’t do jack shit when he had a supermajority and neither will Biden. There will probably be more military interventions and excuses as to why it’s not possible to help struggling people, but I…[Read more]

Being the daughter of a 98 year old, let me tell you what I’ve observed of health care in Southern California– pre pandemic. Once took my mother to the ER at UCLA — an hour away, hoping they could help her. Before they released her, she had broken a finger while under their “care” and put on a med that caused hallucinations. Did a lot of…[Read more]

I take care of my 97 year old mother in her home. I have been in more or less self imposed lockdown since March. Grocery store visits only at 7AM. Medical appointments only when absolutely necessary. Contactless take out or delivery from local restaurants. Right now no outdoor or indoor dining. Hair and nail salons closed. Gyms closed. Retail open…[Read more]

He has friends and family who’ve probably come around. He also has household help who probably go from house to house. When this hit back in March, I cancelled all of the people Medicare was sending around to look after my elderly mom — nurse, lady who bathed her, and physical therapist. It hasn’t been easy keeping her safe, but you can’t be too…[Read more]

A friend who has been cautious e-mailed me that a co-worker attended a large family gathering at Thanksgiving. The co-worker got it along with several others and three died. What is it about keep your distance, wear a damn mask, wash your hands, and don’t gather in crowds that’s so hard to understand? These statistics are so disheartening…[Read more]

No one should go into bankruptcy over medical debt and it’s a goddamned shame that our elected officials allow it to happen by not providing universal health care. And Americans are so cowed they refuse to get rid of these self-serving idiots when given the opportunity. Why the hell are we still looking at McConnell, Graham, and Collins (for…[Read more]

By now we all know the best way to avoid an encounter with the virus. Maintain separation. Wear a mask. Wash hands. Avoid crowds. What is so difficult about any of that? I don’t wish this disease or any disease for that matter on anybody. However, those who choose to deliberately ignore those few simple steps are asking for trouble and I feel a…[Read more]

Just don’t spend it all in one place.

My completely law abiding fearful of authority spouse is more likely to end up behind bars than Trump. Those who think otherwise are delusional.

Why is visiting an amusement park so important that one would risk one’s life to do so? Seems to me once vaccines are widespread and it’s safer to go, that might be the time. But what do I know? My brother was in a snit because my daughter visited only on the backyard patio recently. Her fiance got read the riot act by his brother who questioned…[Read more]
