Hi Tess. Our anniversary is Jan 6. On Jan 6, 2021 we had a full afternoon and evening planned to celebrate our 37th anniversary. Made the mistake of turning on the TV. There went the day. Yes they must all be removed!

The idea that he wants to blur the faces of the MAGA insurrectionists further explains what a lawless turd this guy really is. This damaged zealot has no business being Speaker let alone serving in Congress.

I don't know; watching Congress is feeling more like watching an SCTV parody of a soap opera, with Dave Thomas playing Holy Mike, and Andrea Martin and Catherine O'Hara as Sporkfoot and the Boeb. Except if SCTV had done it, it would be a LOT funnier.

Thanks Jeff.

This is just the Republican way.

The January 6th Insurrection: Just excited tourists. If anyone was hurt or killed, not excited tourists, Antifa.

Concentrate wealth to the already obscenely wealthy?: Trickle-down 'economics'.

Billions of dollars of taxpayer subsidies for oil companies? No -it's the "Cadillac-driving welfare queen, or school teachers and their pensions."

Teaching actual history: "No white students hurt feelings left behind."

George Orwell told us we'd arrive here.

I suspect Johnson’s days as Speaker are numbered, he’s pissing off everyone, even his own caucus. However, there is good news today: Kevin McCarthy’s “retirement” (Because why stay when everyone hates you) and the Wisconsin fake electors finally admitting their fuckery (because why not admit it, promise to not be involved in the 2024 election and face no prison time).

Let me spell it out: Oh My Fucking God! Who do these assholes think they're fooling? There is no gaslighting to what everyone in the country WATCHED ON TV! They are ALL a special kind of stupid.

JFK was killed by Lee Harvey Oswald. (Fight me!)

Richard Nixon actually WAS a crook.

The United States landed on the moon.

The Challenger exploded due to faulty O-rings.

9/11 was carried out by al-Qaeda terrorists.

Donald Trump became president with help from Russia.

The 2020 election was free and fair, and Donald Trump LOST.

January 6th was an attempted coup carried out by the idiots that worship Donald Trump.

I'm 65, almost 66, I don't have any more time to indulge in conspiracy theories. Occam's Razor is always at play for me. Fuck these fucking fuckers!

I just turned 59. My one request to Zeus (I'll even take Poseidon in a pinch) is that the world hit a more sane stride by the start of my sixth decade. We will have the November election results by then, there should be several trump verdicts behind us, I want people to be embarrassed to admit they ever voted for trump to be crawling back under the rocks from whence they came, and ... world peace (said in my best Miss America voice.)

Hey, that's what I tell people, too. I want that tiny-handed orange twat to live long enough that he knows his grandkids and Barron all changed their names, including Barron's first name. Being named for your dad's dickhead alter ego is name change territory in my world.

I hadn't yet put together the Benedict Arnold piece, but damn, he will replace that guy! Imagine those hushed family holiday get togethers with family myths being told.

I'm imagining the spontaneous block parties and celebrations breaking out when the big TRUMP letters come off his buildings, especially in Chicago and New York. It'll be like when you finally get rid of that nasty chest cold and you hock up the last gigantic loogie and it barely makes it down the drain.

I've seen the one in Chicago up close and its problem is how imposing it is. It doesn't belong where it is, right on the Chicago River LOOMING over everything. The Big Buildings area is south of where he put his penis replacement, and it's gross.

If Auntie Fah, BLM and FBI were impersonating Proud(less) Boys, 3%ers, etc., wouldn’t Maga Mike want their faces shown to prove it? He’s too clever by half. And the DC pipe bomber will be obscured in the video even though we know it was 3-toes herself; that’s who he’s really protecting!
