Thanks. I'm west coast. 30min from this posting. If Dems win at least I can smile a bit today, in the face of all things Trumpian.

Pompeo as Secretary Of State...... The more that sinks in the more depressed I am.

as for the pompeo-induced depression, you’re lucky to be north of the border. then again you’re also part of NORAD so ayayay. yeah. depressing. |
I feel like hibernating. Wake me up when he loses the 2020 election (fingers crossed) or the golden shower tape is released, whichever comes first.

as of right now democrat ahead in the penn pols by 7000 votes per washington post
-- eta: ny time shows lamb 6% ahead with 62% of votes in. no reliable projection available yet. -- 5 min ago wapo updated saccone closing gap |
I honestly don't even think a golden shower vid would make a big difference. Access Hollywood did fuck all.

correct not with his base anyway |
I'm amazed at how often the vote is so near 50/50. So perfectly divided!! How did that happen?

Pence would do all sorts of shitty things, but he'd do it legally. He actually has respect for basic democratic institutions. Whack-job right-winger vs. authoritarian wannabe. I'll take the whack job. Sucks, but that's where we're at. Quote:
Sitting out the midterms? Pussy. Anyway, 2020 is the Dem's to lose. They probably will. So pack Congress and the states with good people while you can. |
Lamb claims victory, GOP not conceding, according to what I'm reading this am.
Even if Lamb ends up losing somehow, it feels like a win. Y'know? Anything can happen before November. I try to bear that in mind. But I'm pretty sure the 2018 bloodbath has begun. |

I think Penice would be much worse than Trump. He has all of the same bad policy positions, then adds religious intolerance and extreme xenophobia to the repulsive mix. |

Gina Haspel as CIA Director
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gina_Haspel https://www.cosmopolitan.com/politic...win-for-women/ Jeez, she's VILE! What a horrible choice. Should be under threat of arrest by Interpol |
so lamb won in pa but saccone refuses to concede last i read
looks like the shit will be ongoing |
Quote:
I read that and I think "She's right." Does that make me a bad person? Where is she wrong? |
I thought the article took some liberties with conclusions about what she said. I'll do more reading. Of course I don't think Hilary Clinton is perfect, but I've never understood the amount of hate she gets.

It is happening, actually- I thought this assertion was biblebelterbabble but its april fools day every day now. http://www.newsweek.com/immigrants-a...america-664467 "the City Council in College Park approved the measure to allow undocumented immigrants, student visa holders and residents with green cards to vote in local elections," however Voting rights granted to noncitizens in Takoma Park and San Francisco "are limited to local office, not a blanket right to vote for all governmental offices," said Lorraine Minnite, a political science professor at Rutgers University who wrote The Myth of Voter Fraud.

I have a strange feeling that McCabe will get his revenge.

 Julie Christie AND a great soundtrack! |

I'm sick. SICK I tell you. Why am I looking at the early parts of this thread? What am I getting from this exercise? I'm still trying to come to terms with how in the fuck Trump became POTUS. How did we go from there to here? Everyday I turn on the news and just fucking groan. God help me. |
Pro tip for a longer life in 2018, stop turning on the news.
|
The ostrich with his head in the sand isn't well aware of the lion sneaking up on him....
Turn on the news, keep working for change. (it works!) |

See....isn't this fun?
(I was "rather tired" on my previous post.) |
I'm not saying ignore it completely, just don't subscribe to the constant, steady stream. Read in digests in short bursts. You'll be a lot less depressed throughout the day.
|
Yeah, I really don't do news for hours per day, but what I see is horrifying. But I have to take that ex-CIA guy's words as solace: "America will triumph over Trump".

You mean John Brennan, the the CIA Director who oversaw the CIA hacking of the Senate's computers and was reading senator's emails? Who in 2008 couldn't be CIA Director because of his involvement with torture under Bush, but he was sanitized under Obama. If you own a cell phone, you are participating and have no right to complain. |

3 things: 1. I know you are a Trumpist. (I swear I'm not saying that condescendingly.) 2. I'm seriously going to look up the points that you have made, to see if they stand up to scrutiny. (Forgive me, but we are in the post-truth era.) 3. I've never owned a cell phone. (I know, right?) |
