What we are about to witness will be like witnessing an interstate pile up.

It's going to be ugly. A pile of people indicted, wreckage everywhere, many people injured, their lives destroyed.

It sure has been tough being patient, has't it? Soon we will get relief, we will be vindicated. In the long run we will be rewarded for our patriotism, our common sense, Our belief in reality, our belief in the law and justice.

It has been a long two years for the sane.

The Republicans will never cede power willingly. Assholes and bullies never change their stripes. They will not suddenly see the light and join us. They will fight just like they have since Reagan. We are living the result of their long term strategy of shrinking government till they can drown it in a bathtub.

We have to be realistic and see the fight for what it is so we can be effective. It takes committed vigilance and long term planning with goals in mind.

Yesterday there was a horrific flaming "pileup" in Fla, 2 semis, i car, and a church van , 2 adults and 5 kids died in the resultant fireball.
the crash cannot be investigated properly because NTSB is shut down, thanks to trump.

I'm a bit sensitive to the idea of a "pileup" after this hit the news yesterday.

They will claim our criminal justice system is tainted by partisanship as they continue to stack the courts with their activist appointees.
