Cin? Is the article I found today on ABC news (link) speaking to the same nature of events, mention in your article link? If this is true, then I hope this becomes part of the resultant investigation into crooked members of the GOP and further implicates them so charges can be filed. Maybe all this horrible stuff they've been doing all along will force their political party to 'clean house' and rid themselves of rogue members of their party.

I like Clyburn's idea for our National Anthem: Lift Every Voice & Sing (James Weldon Johnson poem).
Link: https://abcnews.go.com/Politics/act-...ry?id=75221927 I also think it is high time we change the name of the WH because White Supremacy just needs to go. Maybe change the name to somthing more reflective of the diversity of race present in our country: maybe, House of the People.

Who knew so many elected officials are members of militant groups looking to overthrow the government. Isn't that a conflict of interest?

Why can't elected officials be forced to follow the rules? That's half the problem right there. White privilege and white exceptionalism.

ABC News
Trump plans to leave Washington Inauguration Day morning; Pence, Harris speak JOHN SANTUCCI, MOLLY NAGLE, KATHERINE FAULDERS and ELIZABETH THOMAS Fri, January 15, 2021, 3:04 PM President Donald Trump plans to make the unprecedented move to depart the White House next Wednesday morning, just before President-elect Joe Biden's inauguration, ABC News has learned. Trump has requested a large sendoff to be planned for the morning of Jan. 20, sources said, after he choppers via Marine One to Joint Base Andrews, where he is expected to give remarks to supporters and departing members of his administration. Sources add that Trump has requested his departure ceremony to have a "military-like feel," although details are not finalized. He hopes to depart to the blare of a military band, with a red carpet and military honors, according to sources briefed on the plans. Even some sort of military flyover has been suggested, they said. Just go already! |

I read a couple of news articles, over on CNN, this morning.
One article (found here) concerned itself with if there was anything that could actually move the public opinion needle, concerning the litany of lies and terrible things this person (tp) has done. And the other article (found here) talked about the many lies uttered by t---p and their toxic political enablers/supporters. I couldn't help but think of the forum thread started by Aj (Dreadgeek), back in 2010 (eleven years ago, now). In Aj's opening post, Aj tabled certain propositions to think about, which can be found here (http://www.butchfemmeplanet.com/foru...00&postcount=1). That is what I have been thinking about lately. And the up and coming post-impeachment trial by Senate.

In less than 24 hours Trump will be out of office and Biden & Harris will be sworn in. I hear he is leaving town quite early so by the time I wake up tomorrow morning he will be gone, gone, gone!
I am nervous about tomorrow but also very hopeful and looking forward to it. I was so relieved there were not any big attacks on our state capitols over the weekend, so hopefully, the insurgents realize they are well-prepared for now. I just hope everyone is kept safe. It's also a bummer there can't be big crowds to celebrate but the important thing is that our country will be led by honorable, competent people as of noon eastern tomorrow. I am really looking forward to seeing Kamala Harris sworn in by Justice Sotomayor using Thurgood Marhsall's bible. That will be amazing. We did it. We saved our democracy using democratic means. Our country is in tatters and those of us still standing are lucky to have survived. I mourn the loss of all who have lost their lives unnecessarily to COVID-19 due to Trump's inhumanity and incompetence and anyone else who is no longer with us. I think the biggest lesson of all is to never take anything for granted and that the fight for justice and our rights will never end. Tomorrow starts a new age. There is much work to be done. Thank goodness we will be in experienced and competence hands. God Bless America.
