While we are focussed on Trumps and the Ukraine...

the markets are robbing us. The market goes up: I lose a few bucks, the market drops: losses accelerate, market rebounds: I'm left behind.

Luckily, I don't have much in there, but if people are depending on their investments, they are in a bad place.

Question about Bannon's Pardon

Isn't Steve Bannon playing with fire by not cooperating? Aren't there conditions that come with accepting a pardon? If he refuses to testify can't the pardon be revoked?

Just askin'

What the Republicans learned from Trump

They will not be contrite, they will not retreat.

They are doubling down.

Biden better do as much as he can in the next two years. If the Republicans regain a legislative branch back in 2022, there will be hell to pay. They want total control. Democracy be damned.

I don't know about any of you, but...

lovely Ann and I went out for dinner this evening. It was our first evening out at a restaurant since August. I found myself examining other tables trying to identify Republican traitors dining near us.

Is wearing a baseball hat in a dining room a tell? Just askin'.

So the Republicans want to heal the nation without restitution...

They want us to forget and forgive without performing anything to make our nation heal.

The burden is on them. They are the ones that need to restitute to the Capitol, to Congress and to the American people.

I hear nothing from them to join us as a society. Let them stay in the wilderness. Impeach Trump. Cast him out!

Impeachment Question:

So if the House impeaches the president, but the Senate starts the trial on January 19, and Biden becomes president on January 20, can Trump's impeachment trial continue after the inauguration?

Personally, I would like to deny Trump the benefits and perks that are his when he leaves office. I don't think he deserves a pension or a library.

No Pardons Today?

I was expecting a Friday dump of about 50 names.

Trump must have lost interest, or he's consumed by Twitter and plans for the second attack.

Remember: Trump is smarter that our generals.

Just rambling'.

No pardons for the MAGA's...

With his statement of peaceful transition last night, Trump indicated that the law breakers should be prosecuted to the full extent of the law.

I guess their hope of pardons is gone. Sucks to be them. For sure its going to cost them some money for attorneys.

Impeach...today!

If he stays, he'll pardon these criminals.

End this now!

Put the Republicans on record.

Was the "My Pillow" guy on the steps?

If he has any brains, he should hide his face from American tv.
