He Ad, hey twilson. Nice to meet you. Yeah, I’ m here; just not staying. Jyst wanted to pop i glenn 2 hours ago
Hello everyone twilson117 2 hours ago
It’s a tough call, I understand going either way. I wanted to go to college to be on my own, my wife was the same so I guess our daughter inherited it. AdLib 2 hours ago
What’s up, glenn? AdLib 2 hours ago
Everything okay? AdLib 2 hours ago
Well she’s 14 she has some time to decide. twilson117 2 hours ago
Oh yes, she’s got time. AdLib 2 hours ago
She does come out for the summer, but with COVID that didn’t happen last year. Hoping it can happen this summer, but will have to see how it goes. twilson117 2 hours ago
Sorry , doing this on my Kindle, so it’s difficult. Anyway, just popped in to say my biopsy went well. Get results next week. Please say hello to everyone for me; I’ll see you all next week. G’night. glenn 2 hours ago
Biden is saying that we should have 300 million people vaccinated by late Summer so it will hopefully happen. AdLib 2 hours ago
Very tired tonight. glenn 2 hours ago
Hope it does, OK seems to be a hot spot. twilson117 2 hours ago
glenn – I understand. Glad you popped in to share that your biopsy went well. I know folks will want that update tonight. Take care! AdLib 2 hours ago
Yep, OK is not well positioned to tamp down COVID thanks to Trump marrying the ideas of COVID protection being anti-Trump. So insane that his fear that recognizing COVID as a threat was only a fear of losing re-election and yet Repubs are still married to that even though it’s why he lost. AdLib 2 hours ago
Yes, Trump** has really screwed the pooch all the way around. twilson117 2 hours ago
It’s so Trumpian, his first instinct was to lie and cover up COVID because he feared that addressing it as a legit threat could hurt the economy. The idiot never imagined that letting a contagious and deadly disease run rampant through the country could hurt the economy? And covering it up might make people angry and vote against him? AdLib 2 hours ago
Being that the economy was the one thing he could run on for re-election, of course. AdLib 2 hours ago
The only thing a con man knows is the con he’s running anything else dosen’t matter. twilson117 2 hours ago
He was just in it for what he could steal. Never ever about doing anything for the country. And the fools that follow him haven’t figured that out yet. twilson117 2 hours ago
True. And while he has been a very successful con man throughout his life, he’s never had to pay the price when his con blows up. This is the first time in his life he’s ever experienced consequences for his actions. AdLib 2 hours ago
CNN reporting out judge ordering Trump** Org tax firm to turn over more documents. twilson117 2 hours ago
My elderly mother would always ask me when it came to Trump, “Has he done anything good for the country?” And I had to say “no” and explain that it wasn’t why he became president. As you say, it was a con job to grab money and an ego payday which was likely at least if not more the justification. AdLib 2 hours ago
Yes, saw that. This is for the NY AG cases against Trump including what is likely tax fraud and other financial fraud regarding that estate he claimed to donate but actually still treated as his property. He got a lot of tax credits and avoided a lot of taxes, financial crimes like this are easy for prosecutors. It’s all in the paperwork. AdLib 2 hours ago
As far as I’m concerned he has 400K deaths from COVID on his hands and he is responsible for those who died in his insurrection. twilson117 2 hours ago
That’s the cold, hard truth. He intentionally caused the deaths of those 400k and counting because he thought it would help him win re-election by trying to protect the economy from admitting there was a pandemic. He is guilty of crimes against humanity. More dead now from COVID in the US than died in WW II. It’s disgusting. AdLib 2 hours ago

I have a tan suit and I looked damn good in it twilson117 2 hours ago
Trump attacked blue states, rallied racism, incited an insurrection to overthrow the US…but have to admit, Biden wearing a Rolex was the worse betrayal of the American people. Unlike Trump’s gold toilet seat. AdLib 2 hours ago

Repubs say he should be held accountable for riot but they don’t want to do it, cowards. twilson117 2 hours ago
I think Dems and government, especially the DoJ should look at the Qanon subversive crisis like a foreign insurgency. Arrest all those who invaded the Capitol and no mercy, throw them all in prison. Kick out all Repubs beholden to anti-democracy and Qanon, take down RW militias iusing RICO laws as needed. They need to be rooted out and imprisoned, period. Left to flourish, they will make another attempt to overthrow this country and attack Dem politicians. AdLib 2 hours ago

One thing that I am not hearing mentioned much, by the cult followers of Trump in Congress, by news channels assessing that Trump still controls the party, etc., the criminal and civil suits against Trump are going to swallow him up. They won’t start until after the impeachment trial but my bet is that by the week after, Leticia Jones, NY AG, is going to drop over 60 charges on him like a ton of bricks, followed by the NY DA and hopefully GA.

tw, he has been denied bail! pinkpantheroz 2 hours ago
Murph – That’s my big thing. Repubs are still cowering from Trump, the MSM is reluctantly crowning him the continuing leader of the GOP, all without looking ahead to all the prosecutions and lawsuits he’s facing. He won’t have time to order Lindsey Graham to wipe his ass with all of that going on, let alone run for office or control the GOP. AdLib 2 hours ago
Will there be anyone left, I know the Dems will have enought sense to get out of the way twilson117 2 hours ago
Wonder what was the GOP leader doing in Fla? pinkpantheroz 2 hours ago
TW…the pattern appears to be local judges letting them out on bail and fed judges saying “not so fast”….Maddow is a master/mistress of the compelling narrative. The judges transcript is must reading. MurphTheSurf3 2 hours ago

Ad….agreed and there are many GOP kingmakers and bankrollers who are working to dig the ground out from under Trump and the Trumpistas. MurphTheSurf3 2 hours ago
Murph – So it sounds like many more seditionists are being arrested than we hear about in the news. And I am anxious to see charges of sedition which the FBI says are on the way. And I hope any Repubs in Congress who conspired with the overthrow of the country are charged and prosecuted. This has to be no holds barred. AdLib 2 hours ago

PPO – We need a weed whacker to trim out all the seditionists from Congress. It should be easier, seeing that all of them have betrayed their oath of office and the Constitution. If you can’t get rid of Congresspeople for that, what would it take? AdLib 2 hours ago
They have got to prosecute all the seditionists or this will escalate into civil war. seriously Harleigh 2 hours ago
A new Mo. woman member of the House, Cori Bush, asked to move her offices aways from Racist Du Jour in the GOP freshmen class and was granted the request. Very dramatic. MurphTheSurf3 2 hours ago
I agree H twilson117 2 hours ago
TW – It’s a tough thing to do but Dems should get out of the way of the FBI prosecuting Repubs though Pelosi and Schumer should arrange hearings on the betrayal of Repubs and expel any who have proof standing against them. Like MTG. AdLib 2 hours ago
I agree AD twilson117 an hour ago
Absolutely, otherwise the Biden Admin and Congress will be labelled as weak and further mayhem will follow. I’m betting the FBI is straining at the leash to undo all the restrictions and bad press they got for being led by a corrupt fool. pinkpantheroz an hour ago
And the Dems have to act on legislation….dramatically and with certitude…..no repeat of 2009….stall and bawl was the GOP strategy and it almost cost us the ACA. MurphTheSurf3 an hour ago
The fillbuster must go twilson117 an hour ago
Harleigh – Exactly! The Repubs aren’t counting on all the terrible things that are going to come out about Trump from his taxes, from WH aides who were there when he was plotting crimes, and so on. The roof is going to collapse on their Dear Leader but they are too terrified in the moment to stop huddling around him. AdLib an hour ago

tw. the filibuster won’t go, too many Dems won’t vote for it, which is why McConnell is now trying to make nice. pinkpantheroz an hour ago

tw, from my POV here, the US Dems are brilliant at some stuff, but lousy binding together as a United Party. If they don’t fight the GOP, they get stuck in to each other. Very Irish thing to do! pinkpantheroz an hour ago

You know that Dems can use reconciliation twice this year? No budget was passed last year so they have two budgets to pass this year, for 2021 and 2022. They can pass the COVID relief bill with one budget and the Infrastructure bill with the other (they can only be related to budget issues). And if they do so and make lives better by 2022, Dems could get a bigger margin in the Senate, keep the House and have enough Senators to kill the filibuster perhaps. AdLib an hour ago

TW – I have to admit, I was frustrated with Pres. Obama trying to keep negotiating with Repubs in good faith, adding in what they wanted to his infrastructure bill, health care, etc. and then they turned around and smirked at what a sucker he was, never voting for anything. Biden learned and is handling things very smartly. AdLib an hour ago
Murph – If that’s the case, and I don’t fault Pres. Obama for his good faith and optimism in bringing unity but Biden is more effective if he ignores the Repubs and just gets done what he can with Dems. AdLib an hour ago
One highlight of the week is the looks of dismay and the blustering of the Qanon suckers realising their fanaticism was for Sweet FA! Delicious! pinkpantheroz an hour ago

PPO – I think Schumer is taking control now. Not a big fan of him but after messing around with Mitch and getting burned in power sharing, I hope he plows full steam ahead now without a thought about Mitch and his Trump cultists. AdLib an hour ago
Ad…..Barack had a limited experience in the Senate….and the glow that surrounded his 2008 win misled him…..in facing Mitch, he was facing the most cynical of cut throat players and Biden knew it. Now he can act on it. MurphTheSurf3 an hour ago
And a pet project for me is Biden firing the Board of the USPS, letting Dems in The Senate replace them then fire DeJoy like a marshmallow. AdLib an hour ago

TW – True, when Trump was running in the primaries in 2016, most Repubs opposed him. But being Repubs, meaning cowards, they swore their loyalty to him out of fear. They tried to kill the ACA from the start because the RW mentality is to reduce the amount of spending that goes to help the lives of Americans…so that there is no need for taxes and they can be slashed for the wealthy. As you say, now it is too late. It was laughable how so many Repubs including Trump claimed they wanted to protect coverage for pre-existing conditions, while trying to wipe them out by having the SCOTUS overturn the ACA.

And we have lawyers like the amazing Marc Elias who knocked down all of the Trump lawsuits against the election (aside from one that changed number of days for curing ballots from 5 to 3).

Murph – No question, Obama was a little late to making the turn IMO but he finally did pivot to being more forceful about ignoring McConnell and Boehner/Ryan and getting important things done.
