      I was really hoping the special counselor looked at the Fox video showing the FBI carrying out boxes of documents and said " well, I guess we are charging him?" It would have taken anyone about an hour.

      But it has to hold up in a court of law.
      How about we see some action around Christmas or just into the new year?
      I predict some MoC will be first up, the House majority goes back to Ds and we can breathe a collective sigh of relief.
      Then Congress can focus on matters that benefit the country, the people. Not some fictitious laptop that's been passed around like a joint at a party of 16 year olds.

      That's part of the doublethink of fascism, in the same way that their opponents are always described as both pathetically weak and incredibly strong, depending on what's convenient in any given moment. It all comes down to the point that fascism, at its core, is basically solipsism for toddlers; nothing exists unless they want it to exist.

The windmills are so cute in the breeze and the mountains ...oh, what a view. To feel the breeze on my skin ''' and the sun ... my my ... the sun on the skin is a real thing. The chance to sit ... and to just 'think'...think on these journeys are always a gift. To travel from one place to another and enjoy the ride ... even with the signposts and all ... a privilege. Then the joke I knew was coming arrives, and I was ready for it to happen, and here I am, rocking back and forth in my chair uncontrollably. Doing my best not to let out an almighty guffaw and the obligatory and very unflattering snort ... as if something shocking had just happened to me.
    This, THIS I tell you, is the power of "A Closer Look".
    Seth and the writing team are genii!!
    BTW
    Trump is a dunderhead of epic proportions.
    Imagine living in that head and in that reality.
    Imagine what it must be like to ask an audience, "...do you want me to talk about how the DoJ is victimizing me? ...." and genuinely think that the people in the room are interested in what you have to say. The people in that room., the most loyal of fans, were trying to get out of the room before the end of the speech. Ivanka had sent a message that she would not be involved. That is like saying to the world. I am NOT working with him, so do DON't Ask Me ANYTHING!!
    Also - I have decided that my husband is not working there either. Note that he (former secretary of all parts of the govt) made no such note but has not declared any job with Trump.
    Republicans are in trouble.
    They need ReTrumplicans in EVERY swing state.
    They just lost elections in all those swing states
    Trump is essential for that
    They are done with Trump and his antics
    They need the voters.
    I want to know what McConnel is discussing right now ... or is he just saying 4-letter words all day long???? Hahaha.
    I currently have no clue what will be in the next closer look - maybe "Trump found unconscious on top of Golden Toilet ... as police arrive to charge and arrest him."
