As Obama used to say, presidents are part of a long-running story. Trump’s paragraph was nasty, brutish and short In so many ways it was all so gloriously, spectacularly, crushingly normal. The ceremonial rituals, the military band, the procession of dignitaries, the sprinkling of stars, and the entirely forgettable inaugural speech. But for the pandemic masks, the death toll of more than 400,000 Americans, and the small army to deter another white supremacist insurrection, the scenes on the west side of the Capitol were the first signs of a restoration of democracy that came perilously close to collapse. Joseph Robinette Biden Jr swore to protect and defend the constitution on a giant family Bible that was bigger than his home state of Delaware. It appeared helpful for crushing large insects and small insurrectionists. If anything survives in our collective memories of Biden’s speech, it will be the 46th president’s commitment to what used to be boilerplate language about the vi...
Donald Trump is refusing to testify at his impeachment trial after House impeachment managers requested his appearance. Trump spokesperson Jason Miller said the former president “will not testify in an unconstitutional proceeding,” the same argument many Republican lawmakers have made in the lead up to the trial. But Trump’s refusal to testify is sure to anger House impeachment managers, who have argued that Trump needs to testify under oath.

A friend just sent me this interview with Lin Wood that just happened yesterday. So it’s very current and very fresh. You’re not going to want to miss this, there is amazing stuff in here. Not the least of which is Lin Wood encouraging everyone to be calm and wait for the process to play out. Wood sounds extremely calm and confident that President Trump will indeed be serving another term in office. Yes, even as dark as it looks right now! And I’m right there with him. (and so is Hank Kunneman and Kat Kerr, to name a couple others) Not only that but Wood went on to talk about how the plan could very well involve dissolving America, Inc. and heading back to a republic! There has been a LOT of talk about that recently, and it’s sounding more and more likely to me. And if that’s the case, Wood says President Trump may also be unrestricted by a two-term limit! Oh baby! You just need to hear Lin Wood lay it all out…. out….
She has to go. She is a corrupt low life
