I just read that Trump has declared that once he's officially "off the hook", it will be "payback

time" and that he's already assembling an "enemies list". I just have one thing to say about that.

PICK ME ! PICK ME! I guarantee you that NO ONE deserves being on that list more than I do! Ask anyone: I have LOATHED you since Vlad fixed the 2016 election for you!

PICK ME, you arrogant worthless clown!

the Cesar Chavez folks in AZ in 67, during the grape boycott.

I was an active anti-war protester attending U of Illinois in Champaign-Urbana and just missed being at the DNC in Chicago in 68 for demonstrations/riots because I was back in AZ again, I think that was the lettuce boycott. No, not that was later.

I was campaigning for McCarthy that summer, in Goldwater country. My fellow students at UofI came back to class that September with broken arms, bashed in heads, highly pissed off at the thugs in Chicago in police uniforms.

I didn't start protesting and supporting the ERA with NOW til a few years after we got rid of Nixon, so I can't add that to my List Resume, so to speak.

And then there were the drugs.....

Mon Feb 3, 2020, 06:07 PM

If that is your position, you'd better be working your tail off to make it happen.

HAND MARKED PAPER BALLOTS
VOTER VERIFIABLE
STRONG AUDIT TRAIL
STRONG BALLOT SECURITY
NO MACHINES, NO WIFI CONNECTION

Those are the necessities to make 2020 election free and fair.

But legislation is sitting on McConnell's desk.

And states are still buying hackable machines and systems.

And Trump's still asking for meddling from our enemies. And Comey, Coats, Wray and Mueller all told us UNDER OATH that election is already rigged "as we sit here"

So..........what is your plan?

voter suppression tactics like--
--gerrymandering
--closing voting locations in minority neghborhoods
--voting roll purges
--voter ID laws
etc,etc,etc.

We have to fight those as well!!

Barbara Res, former Executive VP of the Trump Organization told Rachel (on her show) that, "Oh yes, there will be revenge against a lot of people." (May not be an exact quote.)

If Republican Senators had any brains and some guts, they would get together and on the very last vote (to acquit) they would vote him out. Take away his power, only his big lying mouth would remain. Then he could be indicted, jailed, etc. But that would soon lead to indictments for a whole bunch of Republicans. Obviously, they will acquit or do something like the chickensht from WV suggested, censure him. I can hear Trump now making fun of being censured. Getting lots of laughs and cheers.

He's a big pussy that scares no one.
He has no clue as to how hard of a road he will have to travel from here on out.
He is an impeached President. He has painted a political target on himself, and the GOP.

Nobody cares what that moron has to say.

I know that many gov agencies are rebelling at least a little bit, but nothing too big so far. (Think NOAA and other stuff that has come out recently).

If he does what is predicted, will agencies push back? Will they have had enough? It's a nice thought, but I have been continually disappointed, from Patrick Fitzgerald (remember Fitzmas?), to Robert Mueller (we had entirely too much invested in the outcome, and we didn't get much of we wanted).

I would like to think that feds (the career folks at all levels) who have so far admirably performed their missions and followed usual customs with respect to the POTUS and CIC, will soon have enough. I like this quote:

There are three things all wise men fear: the sea in storm, a night with no moon, and the anger of a gentle man.


But I am skeptical. I no longer have faith in our system.

At 16 years of age I'd had enough of the bullies. Nearly without exception, even those who called me friend before joined in the mob mentality of hatred instigated by relatives of the Westboro Baptist's Phelps clan. The same who had successfully convinced other fathers to murder their children in ways that made it look like tragic accidents. And some murders who the local law exonerated for manslaughter on the "he touched my dick" defense.
I met their parents, grandparents aunts and uncles and was thoroughly disgusted. The toothless scowl of one such prune faced elder, criticizing me with a coughing, brown phlegm-spitting laugh, smashing his filterless cigarette into the ashtray already overflowing with indescribable stench was a sight I have wished all my life I could unsee: "All dat book larnin' d'ohn do ya no guud".
As was the spitting, grunting fanaticism of Fred Phelps, who had specifically, or so I'd been told, visited there to personally condemn me to hell, along with the usual screeching chorus of crazies, including Shirley. It was truly a satanic ritual disguised as something fanatically religious.
I cursed the notion of my parents having moved me to this tiny, religious, uneducated and backwards little town 4 years previously.
The bullies are having their great hurrah, lead by their hateful master. They wear MAGA hats now, even sight unseen I know this. They have rejected anything of well informed authority all their lives.
And they stand in their red hats PROUD that they are astonishingly ignorant, and very likely many of them raising their progeny likewise.
Although there were "redder" counties on the state 2016 election map, the blue in that county looks like the mouth of a red PacMan.
I ran away from there to save my life in 1976 the night after my father attempted to lead me into an electrical death trap, I have never returned, never will. Extraordinary measures to feed and shelter myself under bridges and shared flops thereafter was comfortable in comparison to living with the MAGAt's to-be.
My anger that their vote counts as twice mine, my own rendered as a silently massive blue protest by deference to idiots, sometimes has to be therapeutically released. Thank you for your participation in the enlightened side of our democracy.
