Writing Sunday, McCord noted that the move by the Justice Department to dismiss charges against Flynn because prosecuting him “would not serve the interests of justice.”

Good article by McCord, though.

3. This entire mis-administration

STINKS to high heaven and it is going to take YEARS to clean up the mess and destruction that they have done to our government.

We WILL need a functioning Senate to work WITH the House of Representatives to regain the "balance of power" between the three branches, especially since it does not seem to be a safe bet to count on the Supreme Court to be working in a true "constitutional" manner.

Our number one task: GET OUT THE VOTE!!!!!!!

4. This is said in complete jest...UNLESS YOU ARE FROM CALIFORNIA

since Trumpo and his wimp AG threaten to disenfranchise the entire state over mail-in ballots.

I am going to get brain damage from constantly shaking my head.

Thank Dawg for Gavin Newsom for quietly doing what's right in the face in The Orange One's bluster.
