Vox Populi, our weekly live chat about the week’s events begins tonight at 7:00pm PDT. Hope to see you then! AdLib 3 hours ago

Hi, Ad! pinkpantheroz 2 hours ago

Hey PPO! AdLib 2 hours ago

How are you two doing? AdLib 2 hours ago

OK, this week, DG. No major upsets or medical dramas. pinkpantheroz 2 hours ago

hey guys Harleigh 2 hours ago

Harleigh, HI! pinkpantheroz 2 hours ago

Hey Harleigh! AdLib 2 hours ago

Glad to hear it, PPO! Fergie had me concerned alst week! AdLib 2 hours ago

Hey glenn! AdLib 2 hours ago

Alll is well. She’s a lot better. pinkpantheroz 2 hours ago

That’s a relief! AdLib 2 hours ago

Good evenin’ gents. Glad to hear Fergie is doing better, PPO. How’s everyone else doing? glenn 2 hours ago

Anyone getting the Sarah Cooper tweets on Trunp? Hilarious! pinkpantheroz 2 hours ago

PPO–Yes, I’ve seen them; she is hilarious. The one on the UV light and disinfectant is perfect! glenn 2 hours ago

She’s very funny! AdLib 2 hours ago

Waiting for the Church reopening one! pinkpantheroz 2 hours ago

Maddow did a piece tonight on how churches that have already been opening are having massive infections and closing again. AdLib 2 hours ago

PPO–Yeah, the TLB is such a “tough” guy, isn’t he? I heard he had to go with the church reopenings because he’s losing the evangelical vote! glenn 2 hours ago

Now, all of you. Please kindly explain why so many morbidly obese women are suddenly going mongrel pinkpantheroz 2 hours ago

And notice, Tresident Plump didn’t offer to attend any of these Death Churches. AdLib 2 hours ago

Ad–Didn’t see that on Maddow, but it doesn’t surprise me. Did you also see where the judge threw out the OANN suit against Maddow? Which, from what I read, means Maddow can recover her legal costs from OANN. glenn 2 hours ago

glenn, I’m steamed that even some of the Real Churches (Catholic/Uniting,etc.) are also starting to moan. Isn’t God everywhere? Not just near the collection plates? pinkpantheroz 2 hours ago

Ad–I like Tresident Plump….(not the person, the label). glenn 2 hours ago

glenn – Yes, OANN is pretty evil and that suit was a joke. so anti-1st amendment, it had to be thrown out. AdLib 2 hours ago

Fox is really scuttling to keep viewers and Frump’s patronage. pinkpantheroz 2 hours ago

The President of University of Notre Dame, who is a Catholic official, declared they will open with students on campus in September. And all these RW religious nuts will simultaneously be preaching “pro-life” as they engage in killing their flocks. This is insane. AdLib 2 hours ago

PPO–Here’s what I’m trying to figure out. The right wingers are always telling us that hurricanes and natural disasters are God’s punishments for gays or whatever. If God is letting the “good” church people get CV19, does that mean that God is pissed off at the churches? Maybe because they’re not following God’s rules? glenn 2 hours ago

PPO–Yeah, foxsocallednews is in search of an identity nowadays. Are they really the TLB’s re-election committee or are they a news organization? glenn 2 hours ago

glenn – I saw many using President Plump after Pelosi outed him as morbidly obese, kind of like this better. AdLib 2 hours ago

Ad–What will Notre Dame do if they have a C19 outbreak? glenn 2 hours ago

Does Fox not realize that as rural areas now get more infected, they are killing off a big chunk of their viewers? AdLib 2 hours ago

Ad–I agree, yours is better, because the TLB is by no stretch of the imagination, a president. glenn 2 hours ago

glenn, if disasters are ‘God’s punishment for gays, abortions’, etc,, Why doesn’t He target gays and the other sinners only? I wonder can any Evilgelical can explain pinkpantheroz 2 hours ago

glenn – Those religious hypocrites will always just make up new lies, VOCID-19 is punishment for the US not making Trump king? AdLib an hour ago

Ad, Fox is also bleeding Advertisers. Boycotts seem to be working. pinkpantheroz an hour ago

Ad–not to worry…their viewers can take hydroxocholorine (or whatever it is), or just drink quinine water; they’ll be fine. glenn an hour ago

glenn – In 3 and a half years, I have never followed the word “President” with his name. AdLib an hour ago

Tresident Pplump is spruiking a product he can neither pronounce nor spell pinkpantheroz an hour ago

PPO–Evilgelicals can’t even explain what Christian principles are, much less what is in God’s mind. glenn an hour ago

Glenn

pinkpantheroz an hour ago

Ad–I’m with you, there is no way I’m calling the TLB the name of the highest office in our land. glenn an hour ago

PPO – I learned that Fx doesn’t care about losing advertisers as much, they make most of their money from the extorted fees they get from cable and sat. AdLib an hour ago

Now I’ve heard everything! on Twitter: The OAN reporter asks if President Trump is thinking about pardoning President Obama pinkpantheroz an hour ago

Ad–that’s interesting about how the foxsocallednews gets its income. glenn an hour ago

glenn – Has to be a majority of those taking Chloroquine are Repubs, so many more of them will die. Fox and Trump are killing their own happily. It is psychotic. AdLib an hour ago

PPO–OMG! Yes, the OANN reporter actually asked McEnany that question in today’s press briefing. How can you pardon someone if they haven’t committed a crime? McEnany’s answer was to tell the press to find the crimes, or something like that. glenn an hour ago

Ad–yes, it is psychotic. However, unless and until republiscums in Congress do something, the psychosis will continue until November. glenn an hour ago

Murph! Hi How are the hands? pinkpantheroz an hour ago

Hey Murph! glenn an hour ago

PPO – It was a setup, the OANN troll clearly worked out with Trump’s people because his shill “coincidentally” had a visual of all the questions Obama needs to be asked. State news channel, should scare real Americans. AdLib an hour ago

restarted Harleigh an hour ago

Glad you’re back, Harleigh. glenn an hour ago

Welcome back Harleigh! AdLib an hour ago

Hey Murph! AdLib an hour ago

Ad, of course it was a setup. Everything the WH does these days is ersatz. pinkpantheroz an hour ago

Ad–Definitely OANN is foxsocallednews on steroids! glenn an hour ago

OANN is fallback for the WH now that Fox is staring at November with dread and desperately trying to undo its years of RWNJ shite pinkpantheroz an hour ago

So, what’s the latest on Pompeo? Has his goose been cooked? glenn an hour ago

And did everyone see that the fraud who accused Biden of sexual abuse, Reade, perjured herself in multiple trials, lying that she graduated Antioch when she didn’t. And her lawyers fired her! AdLib an hour ago

Hey Choicelady! AdLib an hour ago

Happy Friday all! choicelady an hour ago

Ad–Yeah, I saw that about Reade. She’s not looking good as a credible accuser. glenn an hour ago

Ad, and now Defence lawyers everywhere are demanding retrials pinkpantheroz an hour ago

Happy Friday to you, Choice! How are you? glenn an hour ago

CL! Hi pinkpantheroz an hour ago

So all these Trump attacks are failing, Ukraine, Reade, “Obamagate”…he is so desperate, he sees what’s coming and now is trying to hold Russian Show Trials in The Senate against Biden and Obama. It won’t work. AdLib an hour ago

Ad – as a rape and domestic violence victim advocate back some years ago, Tara Reade pisses the HELL out of me. We (I at least) never got false reports, but she’s set up every single woman as someone NOT to be believed. choicelady an hour ago

Hey Ad, gldd, Harleigh, Murph, and PPO!!! choicelady an hour ago

ok I am xaught up. I would love to comment but it is taking me forever to type acouple of lines. Good to see you all. MurphTheSurf3 an hour ago

Reades day has come and gone Harleigh an hour ago

Murph – I get that catch up issue. choicelady an hour ago

HOw are the limbs doing, Murph? pinkpantheroz an hour ago

Ad–I really don’t think it would be good for Obama to testify in the Senate, because of the optics. But, man, sometimes I really wish he would call the turtle’s bluff and say, “Yeah, bring it on.” glenn an hour ago

I went toi Antioch in Ohio for two years, and while it wasn’t my cup of tea, I’m pissed that bitch sullied the name! choicelady an hour ago

I am doing better but with number of breaks, sprains, et. al. it is going to take a while for me to get back to what passes for normal for me. MurphTheSurf3 an hour ago

Murph! What happened????? choicelady an hour ago

CL–I agree. She has set the movement back to “see, no one can believe these women.” glenn an hour ago

PPO – So not only has Reade libeled Biden and tried to blow up a presidential election, she will be the cause for murderers and abusers to get out of prison and victims to have to go through testimonies and trials all over again. She is sick and evil. As are the Bernie nutjobs who promoted her lies and attacked Dems as pro-rapist because they supported Biden. AdLib an hour ago

oh geez Harleigh an hour ago

glenn, I wish bloody Congress would go after Plump harder. They look wimpy. Europe says how come? Just like nothing was done in Hitler’s time until too late. pinkpantheroz an hour ago

Murph–well, we’re glad you’re here tonight! glenn an hour ago

Ad–sometimes you have to wonder who is (or was) paying Reade. glenn an hour ago

glenn – There is no precedent and Obama will not break it, to call a former president in for testimony on a conspiracy theory charge. But he would kick their asses. AdLib an hour ago

PPO – once the GOP Senate found the Occupant no guilty, NOT sure what else we could do. choicelady an hour ago

PPO–I agree. HIs tweets to withhold money to states that sent out absentee ballot applications is another example of extortion. IOW, another impeachable offense. glenn an hour ago

Choice….loading up trucks with food from the co-op….fell and broke my left arm….lots of micro cracks, chips, etc. Long road back if I choose to get natural healing that restores function to the shoulder. Surgery is quicker but even when it works you lose a lot of mobility and if it does not work…lots more damge. MurphTheSurf3 an hour ago

Ad – How is it, what IS the missing issue (thinking, thinking…) that makes Trump totally in charge of everything but Obama guilty of everything. WHATEVER could be the difference? choicelady an hour ago

Sorry about my language, but fuck McConnell pinkpantheroz an hour ago

Glenn….your masks are on the way….. MurphTheSurf3 an hour ago

CL – Reade is such a needy, selfish creature, she has left a trail of wreckage behind her her whole life. She should be sued by some of these entities and crushed. She has hurt so many people. AdLib an hour ago

Murph! OH NO!!!! I am so terribly sorry. It does sound as if slow and steady will be better, less risk, but how awful for you! choicelady an hour ago

PPO – Fuck and McConnell are natural alliances. choicelady an hour ago

cl

pinkpantheroz an hour ago

What do we think of Biden’s “you’re not black” remark last night? MurphTheSurf3 an hour ago

Ad–Precedent doesn’t matter to the TLB and his republiscum enablers. I wonder if they would really stoop so low to subpoena him and Biden. I think they’ve pretty much backed off of it, but it still doesn’t stop the TLB from pushing for it. glenn an hour ago

Ad – Reade is white entitlement exploded. I hope I never meet the bitch because I will cave into my desire to take her in the alley and beat the shit out of her. choicelady an hour ago

Murph, a slip, for which he already apologised pinkpantheroz an hour ago

poor joe needs to stay on his script then STFU Harleigh an hour ago

glenn – Reade’s pandering to Putin and expressing blind love for him a few years ago was very suspicious…and is today when considering who might have pushed her to go public with this lie. AdLib an hour ago

Murph – oddly, Black people thought it was funny., White people were all up in their disapproval. choicelady an hour ago

CL–Because the TLB is a republiscum and Obama is a Democrat? glenn an hour ago

Why so feral about Joe. Plump is a racist bastard in virtually every tweet and speech pinkpantheroz an hour ago

Choice…the co-op (with which I have a love-hate relationship) has stepped up again but I really dislike so many we are helping because they are so steeped in their anger and ignorance. MurphTheSurf3 an hour ago

CL – Such a muystery why there is that double standard against Obama. The answer should be black and white. AdLib an hour ago

glenn – that’s certainly ONE difference…

choicelady an hour ago

Ad – I think you nailed it! choicelady an hour ago

I know glenn did, too! choicelady an hour ago

A Tie! pinkpantheroz an hour ago

PPO–why should you be sorry about your language? It’s exactly how all of us feel. Hopefully, when he loses his re-election, McConnell’s ass will be the one hauled before the Senate. glenn an hour ago

yeah but obama wore a tan suit, asked for spicy mustard and gave his wife a terrorist fist bump don’t forget Harleigh an hour ago

Choice can you say more about the black remark being taken as humorous by blacks. MurphTheSurf3 an hour ago

Harleigh – OMG – I forgot all those things that discredit Obama. choicelady an hour ago

Ad…how do I post an image of me in my CoronaMask. MurphTheSurf3 an hour ago

CL–You go girl! glenn an hour ago

Harleigh, AND FLOTUS44 sent the ‘bare Arm’ signal to the dark militias pinkpantheroz an hour ago

Murph – I’m picking this up from supporters on Twitter. It’s an eye roll, and a snort, and dismissed. They seriously don’t seem to care. ONE man did and got mad at him. But there were 20 people commenting, and 18 were OMG it’s nothing sorts, all of them Black. choicelady an hour ago

deep state plot those bare arms Harleigh an hour ago

Murph – I am not black but I would just say that the way all these people jumped on Biden for a poor-taste joke but said nothing about Trump speaking out in support of the “bloodline” of the racist/anti-Semetic Henry Ford, tells the whole story. Too many people with such ftagile feelings, let Trump off the hook but hammer Biden. Do any of the people who wailed really think Biden would be racist if he was president and harm PoC? While Trump has done nothing but? AdLib an hour ago

CL–Yeah, I’m not sure we’ll ever be able to solve that mystery! glenn an hour ago

Harleigh–yeah, I forgot about those “scandals”. And Melania is as pure as the driven snow! glenn an hour ago

Ad – your point is right on. The defense of Ford, a good employer and horrific anti Semite, is right on. choicelady an hour ago

Choice….I got a similar reaction from a black friend who said that anyone who appears to be black suggests that it is not Trump OR Biden as the essential choice…is not really black…he is a curdled cream oreo. MurphTheSurf3 an hour ago

Ad, that really says it all as well about media reportage. pinkpantheroz an hour ago

glenn – My point is, Obama would rightly refuse to testify at a Repub/Russian Show Trial…like Trump has prevented everyone from doing so. AdLib an hour ago

I used to be a poor black man…. now I’m just a broke honkey Harleigh an hour ago

LOLK!!! Curdled Cream Oreo!!! I almost spit my drink on my keyboard! Too funny! choicelady an hour ago

HArleigh – what an interesting life you’ve led! choicelady an hour ago

my fav of the week was calling eric trump ‘monkey gums’. LOL Harleigh an hour ago

HArleigh have you been at the CLorox again? pinkpantheroz an hour ago

CL – Have you seen all the videos of “Karens” and their white entitlement making them look like lunatics? Reade should be their cult leader. AdLib an hour ago

Harleigh – funny! choicelady an hour ago

Ad, your perspective fits in with the one my friend, a long time community activist in black neighborhoods shared with me. MurphTheSurf3 an hour ago

Ad – yes, and it’s beyond amazing there are that many stupid-ass white women. Tara is, indeed, their leader. choicelady an hour ago

clorox is why I ain’t black no mo hahaha Harleigh an hour ago

Harleigh – and you lived to tell the tale! Trump will be SO PROUD. Please encourage him to follow suit???? choicelady an hour ago

Curdled Cream Orea..to describe that man did seem very apropos. MurphTheSurf3 an hour ago

Ad, is there some sort of competition for morbidly obese Karens – Take the Racist/Taser Challenge? pinkpantheroz an hour ago

Ad–Hmmm, isn’t it that old double standard again? The TLB can say any vile thing he wants; call anyone names; toot out those dog whistles to his base; but OMG! Alert! Alert! Biden said something against blacks! Of course, Biden’s apology will never see the light of day again, yet the original statement will be repeated ad nauseum. I hate our media sometimes. As soon as Biden made that remark, the TLB’s “bloodline” remark should be brought up just as much. As well as all of his other anit-black and anti-Semitic remarks. glenn an hour ago

glenn – right on point, thank you. choicelady an hour ago

Spot on, glenn pinkpantheroz an hour ago

Murph – I saw some of the black folk I follow on Twitter knocking this down as ridiculous too so that was another confirmation of what BS this “story” was. Biden makes mistakes, this was far from a horrible one. AdLib an hour ago

Harleigh – Love Eric “Monkey Gums” Trump! AdLib an hour ago

Ad – same here on Twitter. Nobody who has been deeply in the game for a Black Veep is mad at Biden for that silly, not racist, but silly, comment. choicelady an hour ago

Ad–Exactly. Obama could just continue to refuse until the election when it becomes a moot point. glenn an hour ago

Harleigh – I would have warned you about that side effect of injectng Clorox! AdLib an hour ago

Harleigh – where did ‘Monkey Gums’ come from? Brilliant. \ pinkpantheroz an hour ago

My entire life I look to Black people to understand what impacts Black people. I find it’s a whole lot better than looking to WHITE people to figure out what Black people are thinking! My perspective tends to shock white people… choicelady an hour ago

i drink clorox and shoot up om the lysol Harleigh an hour ago

Harleighn – Oh, you take MadHattans then! choicelady an hour ago

lol Harleigh an hour ago

PPO – Maybe there’s a connection between being Repub, phony blonde, morbidly obese and being one of these Karens. Is it genetic? AdLib an hour ago

I sound like a TLB supporter, but I don’t care how many gaffes Biden makes. He’s not evil; he’s a good man who gets carried away sometimes. That is not why the TLB makes his vile statements; he makes them because he actually means them. glenn an hour ago

Harleigh–well that Clorox certainly worked on your beard, didn’t it? glenn an hour ago

glenn – yup. TLB is, to the BONE, a vile and evil human being. If he’s actually human. choicelady an hour ago

didn’t have a napkin handy so got white beard patch. Harleigh an hour ago

CL–Hmmm, you are so “strange”. Asking the people whom it impacts about what impacts them. How very droll of you! glenn an hour ago

Ad, Must dust off my Incest-in-the-hinterland thesis. I’ll get back to ya! pinkpantheroz an hour ago

glenn – Dems need to be a little smarter than chomping at the bait every time. As soon as the chorus of Trumpers/Russian Trolls howl about Biden having done something horrible, the first response should be, “You’re all proven liars, you’re going to have to do a lot better than an accusation to get me to believe your crap.” AdLib an hour ago

yep Harleigh an hour ago

CL–Is a psycopath considered human? glenn an hour ago

Good idea, Ad. I must use that. I usually just block trolls pinkpantheroz an hour ago

Spanky is totally demented Harleigh an hour ago

CL – What was a bit disgusting was all the white “Democrats” who were on Twitter condeming Biden. It’s as White Privilege as claiming to speak for black people on anything else. Stay in your lane, Entitled White People. AdLib an hour ago

glenn – it so depends on the psycopath… choicelady an hour ago

Ad–yup. You’d think after three and a half years, Dems would learn how to react. Of course, the media still hasn’t either. glenn an hour ago

true Harleigh an hour ago

Ad – it is NEVER good for white people to get all up in their outrage on behald of Black people. It’s more “leading Black people from bondage” stupidity. choicelady an hour ago

*behalf choicelady an hour ago

glenn, I think everyone is now tuned to the ‘Gettem right back’ setting. pinkpantheroz an hour ago

glenn – On one hand we have Trump literally killing tens of thousands of Americans, on the other hand, Biden said the wrong thing. Never do the scales tilt against Biden. AdLib an hour ago

CL–Ok, then I agree. The TLB isn’t human. glenn an hour ago

CL–or black people have to be taught how to react to these “insults”. glenn an hour ago

it’ll be 100,000 by tuesday and the stupid red states are about to implode. Harleigh an hour ago

PPO – I actually propose that mental illness has grown exponentially in folks who are poor and white. They don’t seem to be thinking very sanely anymore. AdLib an hour ago

All – despite Biden’s occasional foot in mouth disease, he still leads Trump pretty much everywhere. The depravity of Trump’s administration and decisions is not going to be overshadowed by an occasional gaffe. choicelady an hour ago

Harleigh -Red state meltdown is scary as hell to me. choicelady an hour ago

Ad, a typical ploy of the Ruling classes everywhere. Keep the peasants poor and ignorant pinkpantheroz an hour ago

PPO–Yes, and that’s what republiscums have brought us to. I do like Ad’s answer, though. We have to learn to dismiss them rather than engage with them on their level. glenn an hour ago

their numbers are going to be really scary despite lying and denial Harleigh an hour ago

CL – I would even suggest it’s covering up guilt of harboring racist feelings there very upset feeling, the white entitled types leaping to declare how black people are offended. A bit of over-compensation, maybe? AdLib an hour ago

I am still here reading alpng and coping with KEYBOARD ENVY! MurphTheSurf3 an hour ago

Biden makes gaffe – uproar! Plump kills 100,000 – crickets pinkpantheroz an hour ago

Murph, it’s great to have you here no matter what! AdLib an hour ago

glenn – one thing I learned years ago while dealing w clinic demonstrators is not to engage with them. We focused on the patients, walked them in ignored the protesters. Why? They’re like POD PEOPLE and feed off our anger. The more you push them back, the bigger they get. When you ignore them, they deflate. choicelady an hour ago

THANKS MurphTheSurf3 an hour ago

Murph, hear Hear1 pinkpantheroz an hour ago

Murph, you do what you can, and it is terrific. I am so awfully sorry this happened to you! choicelady 44 minutes ago

So,does anyone disagree that after Trump loses, the white militias will gather in DC and try to disrupt and “revolt” in dangerous ways in cities and states too? AdLib 44 minutes ago

well i’m off folks. have a great weekend Harleigh 44 minutes ago

Night Harleigh! Have a great Memorial Day wekend! AdLib 44 minutes ago

Though with stay-at-home…holidays are not what they were. AdLib 44 minutes ago

G’Nite H! pinkpantheroz 43 minutes ago

Ad – I think the militias and supposed constitutional defender groups (Oath Keepers, etc.) will indeed group and threaten. And they will be defeated. choicelady 43 minutes ago

G’night Harleigh! Great to see you! choicelady 43 minutes ago

PPO – Biden makes a gaffe, Trump cages children and separates them from their parents. Bad Biden! AdLib 43 minutes ago

Ad, I’d say every Governor will have the Nat. Guard on standby. pinkpantheroz 43 minutes ago

Ad–poor white people have been whipped into a frenzy of hate for thirty years now. They can’t think for themselves anymore. It’s not only poor people, though. There are still many white people who support the TLB because of the economy. That tide may be changing now, because of the economy, though. We’ll see. glenn 42 minutes ago

AD…. I THINK THE MILITARY WILL HAVE THEIR HANS FULL. MurphTheSurf3 42 minutes ago

Could there be a mutiny in the ranks, Murph/Ad? pinkpantheroz 42 minutes ago

PPO – I think that’s exactly what will happen. Murph – yes, it will be a challenge, but they are actually few in number relative to the rest of us. Dangerous yes. Powerful? NO! choicelady 42 minutes ago

CL – We discussed this before but I think an important responsibility for Biden will be to have a hard response ready on day one to slap down white militias and Trump cultists immediately with intimidation. Any scent of weakness could result in a terrorist-style insurgency for a long time. AdLib 41 minutes ago

CL, Cowardly against other armed force? Definitely! pinkpantheroz 41 minutes ago

Ad–that’s a good explanation, too. Overcompensation. glenn 41 minutes ago

PPO – I think Trump has lost virtually all cred with the US military. I know from my own work that the RW religious types are trying to take over, but they have NOT succeeded, and they won’t. The military HATE Trump. choicelady 40 minutes ago

PPO – Yes, Goverors will also need to have a plan ready to go to use the National Guard to take down any armed protest. AdLib 40 minutes ago

Biden has presrnted a p;an for a low key, grt to work inaugural. Small crowds. MurphTheSurf3 40 minutes ago

Ad – I do agree, and I think governors agree. Wise move by Biden. choicelady 40 minutes ago

CL–exactly. I wish more Dems and people in the media would get that ignoring them thing. Except Pelosi–she’s becoming a master at deflating the TLB with her answers. glenn 39 minutes ago

cl, relieved to hear that. Took ’em long enough, though. pinkpantheroz 39 minutes ago

Pelosi ROCKS, glenn! choicelady 39 minutes ago

A Covid inaugural. MurphTheSurf3 38 minutes ago

All – these are the same people who backed Tim McVeigh. They ARE dangerous less as armed militia than as secret bombers. THAT we can be sure will be a problem choicelady 38 minutes ago

Murph – YES!!! choicelady 38 minutes ago

glenn – So true, all the Repubs have fed their needy rural followers for decades is fear and hatred. It has driven many of them insane and Trump would be pleased to see them lose their lives fighting a revolt to keep him in power and end our democracy. Of course, there aren’t enough of them to win but it only took 15 terrorists to turn the country upside down. AdLib 38 minutes ago

Ad–no, I don’t disagree. But if the republiscums in office don’t call out the National Guard, the military, and every other damn body, to arrest them and lock them up, then we are doomed. glenn 38 minutes ago

I seriously think the Occupant will not be here for the inauguration but will flee to a country w no extradition. Then we will discover that he sold our PPE/ventilators for profits he and Jared pocketed offshore. He will be exposed for the vile and disgusting thug he really is. choicelady 37 minutes ago

biden needs to come off as the not-trump….a humble inaugural is a good start MurphTheSurf3 37 minutes ago

Agreed Murph, but the US military can’t operate in the US in a combat mode. They can support though. I think it would need to be local police, state police and National Guard fronting the crushing of this traitorous movement if it happens. AdLib 36 minutes ago

Ad–Yes, from day one, Biden needs to slap down those domestic terrorists. He needs to make sure he is heard loud and clear from the day after his election, BEFORE he actually takes office. glenn 36 minutes ago

Ad – all that is in place. The military will hold the bases and codes secure. They have already HAD the discussion about the point at which top command refuses direct orders. They are on solid ground to do that. choicelady 35 minutes ago

PPO – I think there might be some in the military and police who would support a fascist attempted takeover of our democracy but not enough to withstand the pushback. AdLib 35 minutes ago

cl- not far fetched at all MurphTheSurf3 35 minutes ago

CL–glad to hear that the military hate the TLB. glenn 35 minutes ago

Murph – Best to plan for a small inauguration and it would help prevent Trump Traitors from trying to disrupt it. AdLib 34 minutes ago

glenn – he’s been totally stupid with them, cutting the VA, cutting military families, cutting benefits, cutting even the 90-day right to service based benefits for the Guard. He’s too stupid to see he’s undermining his own strengths. choicelady 34 minutes ago

ad…there are many ways to get around posse comitatus MurphTheSurf3 34 minutes ago

Murph – yes, and I think most states are prepared to do it. choicelady 33 minutes ago

Well, good folks, it’s time for me to call it a night. I hope everyone has a safe Memorial Day weekend. Take care, all and hope to see you all next week. That includes you, Ms. Choice Lady.

glenn 33 minutes ago

Well, great to see all and chat, but I’m away as well. Take care all and stay safe pinkpantheroz 33 minutes ago

Ad…small…so we get to the titanic job of righting the ship of state MurphTheSurf3 33 minutes ago

Never underestimate the power of the virus to take out the protesters one by one. They are too stupid to realize how at risk they are in their demonstrations. choicelady 32 minutes ago

glenn – I think things will really change with Repub Governors once Trump is defeated. They join his treason to use violence and terrorism to pursue a cup, they have to know that they will be tried as traitors alongside him. AdLib 32 minutes ago

Good night glenn – stay safe in your demented state. Just cuz they’re weird doens’t mean YOU have to be! Please take care and stay safe. You’re in our heart. choicelady 32 minutes ago

CL – But I would argue that Trump is so full of hubris, he won’t runaway, he’ll try to build his movement to take back power from within the US. And what country would he want to live in that wouldn’t extradite him? AdLib 31 minutes ago

Ad – I think we are at the point where we are inches away from a “Mussolini Solution” if these RW jerks go much more haywire. choicelady 31 minutes ago

And… my arm is aching….so i am off to ice it….night MurphTheSurf3 31 minutes ago

Ice up, Murph, hope you feel ebetter and sleep well tonight! AdLib 30 minutes ago

Good night, Murph – take care of yourself. We need to find a way to mnake this dictation friendly for you. Hugs (*gently) to you! choicelady 30 minutes ago

Hey Ad – this was fun. I’m so upset about Murph’s arm though! We are none of us spring chickens. I really hope he’ll be OK. choicelady 29 minutes ago

Yes, right as he was recovering from his surgery. AdLib 29 minutes ago

It’s been a pretty bad year for him. Can he get enough help on the farm to keep going? choicelady 28 minutes ago

It’s even more fun when you’re here! AdLib 28 minutes ago

I don’t know but it seemes to be a pretty tight community, I would think they help each other out. AdLib 28 minutes ago

Oh thank you! I made a conscious effort for an EARLY dinner so I could check in. No law says we HAVE to eat at 7! choicelady 28 minutes ago

Ad – he’s cone so much for so many people. I hope they come through for him. choicelady 27 minutes ago

He’s DONE so much… choicelady 27 minutes ago

Nice! Exactly, we’re free to eat whatever and whenever we want! This is America! AdLib 27 minutes ago

LOL – freedom of consumption!!! choicelady 27 minutes ago

CL – Yep, he’s helped them get health care, sell their crops, I would hope they would help him when he needs it. AdLib 26 minutes ago

I feel as if my whole life focuses on huting, gathering, food prep. For someone who now hates to cook, this isn’t a lot of fun. choicelady 26 minutes ago

He deserves the support of the entire community, even the dipshits. choicelady 26 minutes ago

I am actually, for the first time in my life, a little bored with food since it’s been such a focus for months. AdLib 25 minutes ago

We talked about that – we’re eating 2 x a day for the same reason – bored with food. choicelady 25 minutes ago

I made a pont to have plenty of comfort food for the family and now it’s lost its lure! AdLib 25 minutes ago

That doesn’t mean I don’t buy and freeze a lot though. choicelady 25 minutes ago

Too true. And because of our weird diet our “comfort food” is pretty minimal. If you can’t eat wheat pasta, dairy, then mac and cheese loses a LOT in translation. We don’t have a lot that GIVES comfort. We eat to live, we don’t live to eat. choicelady 23 minutes ago

I am getting a generator, since COVID-19 is only growing and is expected by al the top Dr.s to come back in a fury in Nov, I worry that if we have an earthquake or fire or storm that knocks out power, it could be out for a very long time with the state reeling from COVID-19 and bidget problems.

budget AdLib 23 minutes ago

Oh gosh – that is a GREAT idea! choicelady 22 minutes ago

I like Bidget. That’s a very thin budget. You coined a GREAT term. choicelady 22 minutes ago

And keeping the shelves stocked from now on. AdLib 22 minutes ago

And I am SO Stealing it! choicelady 22 minutes ago

Bidget is the budget that Gidget designed. AdLib 22 minutes ago

I didn’t buy huge amounts of anything but do have enough for over 2 months of pretty minimal feeding. I will be thinking upon a generator! choicelady 21 minutes ago

Gidget Bidget – works. choicelady 21 minutes ago

Had to decide between a very powerful generator and one that would just power a mini-fridge and phones and lamps and finally decided on the smaller one. Good news is that the ones I’m looking at are solar powered. AdLib 21 minutes ago

2 months is plenty! AdLib 20 minutes ago

I was going to ask – solar powered is PERFECT. choicelady 20 minutes ago

One thing we do have in the back is sun. That would be great and would protect against gas nonsense. It’s going to be all over the map in price. choicelady 19 minutes ago

I have non wheat pasta, beans, canned fish and chicken plus frozen stuff. choicelady 19 minutes ago

A good friend of mine is in NC and before the hurricane hit them, he bought a big one and connected it to the house line. So he was okay while power was out for over a week or two. I don’t expect it to be as bad here but we should have full earthquake preparedness if one hits during COVID-19. If you think it was hard to get food and toilet paper with just COVID… AdLib 18 minutes ago

That’s for damned sure! I oddly do have a lot of toilet paper, NOT purchased in bulk but slowly over time and stored. I have two months of that, too, but I share with the guys in the back. choicelady 17 minutes ago

Hard to justify spending over $1,000 for a generator that could power the refrigerator but may never be used. So looking at one around $400 and plan on using it regularly anyway to power some of my office electrical devices…solar powered so it will pay for itsef anyway over time. AdLib 16 minutes ago

That is really cool. I will look into it. VERY good info, thanks! choicelady 15 minutes ago

I might have to do the larger one since we power the guys in the back. I’m not averse to that. choicelady 14 minutes ago

My plan is not to go nuts on storing up but again, think of it like earthquake supplies Plus. More food and water in store and generator. And if after November, we also have domestic terrorism going on, so much could be turned upside down. So, I want to be very prepared by this Fall justto be safe. AdLib 14 minutes ago

All agreed – good logic and reasoning. choicelady 14 minutes ago

I can send you the info I’ve researched, I’ve decided on a brand of generator and get the solar panels separately. Interestingly, these are setups that people who are in RVs and off-grid in cabins use. AdLib 13 minutes ago

I have already seen indications of trouble – my car has been riffled twice. Rick, the man in the back, moves it to take out the trash, then forgot to lock it. Nothing much taken, but it’s a sign, a bellwether, of trouble. choicelady 12 minutes ago

Thanks – I’d LOVE the info! choicelady 12 minutes ago

I am absolutely not a “prepper”. I just saw how quickly stores were emptied and supply chains fell apart, realized we’re not prepared for two disasters like COVID and an earthquake happening at once. AdLib 11 minutes ago

I was always interested in being a prepper, but for BLIZZARDS, not for whatever else. Living in Buffalo makes one cautious. So it’s in my blood after 20 years. We survived three major storms and never batted an eye. Now I carry it over to COVID prep – it’s just what I do. choicelady 10 minutes ago

That is another goosd point, crime always rises in bad financial times and with record unemployment, many corps closing for good, some people could become more desperate. And if we can’t get tp and groceries, how will those struggling do it? AdLib 10 minutes ago

Good to hear. I am never one to give into fear but I felt I was far too reserved as COVID came along, we were fine but it just came at a time when we had supplies. I don’t want to take that for granted again. AdLib 8 minutes ago

I work to link people to affordable delivery services in CA, to stores that take EBT by phone (some do), to creating volunteer deliveries via our youth groups shopping for elders, sick people. We are trying to make this community based for those w nothing. When Greg and I got our check, we gave half to the food bank, half broken into smaller amounts to homeless folks we know. choicelady 8 minutes ago

CL – You and Greg are such antidotes for the dismay I have with all these Trump supporters. You guys inspire me! AdLib 7 minutes ago

Even we wiser less panicy people do need to assume responsibility for ourselve and families. We also need to share if we’re called upon. So we do what we can to be helpful and not a burden. choicelady 7 minutes ago

Ad – we live as we see fit. We are fine, so we share. I can see how that might come to be impossible (there are discussions of cutting pensions), but for the time being, we have the ability to be helpful not needing stuff. So we do. choicelady 6 minutes ago

Yep, we check in with our neighbors and they were great when COVID first hit and we were all a bit in shock at being sequestered. People can be so wonderful, that alone could be the best campaign for Biden, after being hammered by how awful people can be via Trump. AdLib 5 minutes ago

I AM selfish in wanting Dems and Biden – they won’t cut Social Security!!! choicelady 5 minutes ago

OPn Twitter I see so many stories of people stepping up to help one another it is truly inspirational! choicelady 4 minutes ago

You also have the goodness to be so caring of your fellow human beings. It is a moral salve in this time. AdLib 4 minutes ago

Hillary was correct – we ARE “STRONGER TOGETHER”! choicelady 4 minutes ago

It sounds SO cliche – but we GET as much as we GIVE. choicelady 3 minutes ago

Yes, there is so much kindness in people, especially in difficult times, it can be obscured by the fewer who are inhuman. But with a leader again who can communicate compassion and morality, we can recover from where we are. AdLib 2 minutes ago

I don’t know, the Tara Reades out there just take, Trump and his crime family just take. We decide what role we play in life, some choose to be the bad guys, many choose to be the good guys. AdLib a minute ago
