Let me make this pellucidly clear - Christmas edition😀

Last edited Sat Dec 24, 2022, 06:51 AM - Edit history (1)

The Slobfather is finished. He and his name will live in infamy branded like a beast.

The Jan 6 Committee was the most consequential hearing in American history.

Releasing the Report and all these juicy transcripts is a wonderful Christmas present.

Nancy Pelosi may well have been the most Consequential Speaker of the House of Representatives in history.

2022 was a much better year for Dems than many realize.

Merry Christmas and let’s watch the DOJ lock them up in 2023.

WaterMan was right from day one about the institutions holding. They are way stronger than the branded beast and his goons. Sure reforms and severe punishment are needed.

Oh and raise a glass to absent DUers who would have loved this especially William Pitt who died earlier this year. He would have loved Sixthmas (stolen from a DUer)

As we say here Mek the Christmas Ketch you in a good mood. Dems earned that😀😀😀

Thank you for always posting such insightful things. Merry Christmas and I'd say stay warm but I imagine most DUers would gladly trade places this weekend. You're the best.

Sometimes it’s easier to see the forest from a distance.
Americans are tougher and more resilient than its buffoons - the Slobfather is merely a self made up cartoon character - a criminal Con.
Happy Holidays to you and yours

Great post. Yes, it will come to pass that ‘22 was an awesome year for Democrats.
2023 we may get to see the further crumbling of MAGA’ts, couldn’t happen soon enough.

And I could not agree more--pellucidly so, eh, Malaise!

I was thinking of William Rivers Pitt last night and how much I wish he could have seen the Mid-term result at a minimum and more importantly to be able to continue the fight with all of us for many years to come. To his mother, Jane (Raven), my thoughts are with you and Lola at this time.

to all the DUers who have stood together this year and made some very difficult times a lot less so.

Your "Slobfather" posts are always a hoot! Your optimism helped keep me sane this past year.

Here's to seeing him and his grifting family get everything they deserve this coming year!

...and for the DU community.
We are indeed out of the woods as far as the turd that may finally flush goes. He's circling right now trying desperately to find something to keep him afloat. His desperation and impending doom is a wonderful holiday gift.
Ho-ho-ho!

Joe Biden is right. The best ideas win. That's the whole idea of democracy. And Democrats have the best ideas, they've had the best ideas all along, we just didn't know going back 30 years how to sell them well and were flummoxed by GOP propaganda. Now we know the game, the opposition is in toxic shock and refuses to recognize it, and we still have the best ideas. The only thing that worries me is the judicial system, so divided and populated with right wing morons, but some of those will be laughed into irrelevance and Sam, John, and Clarence aren't dressed in forever robes. Yes inflation worries me too, but the Fed will eventually catch up, and they are doing so faster than in 1975. So take heart, happy holidays to all!

Nancy Peloso was Speaker of the House and had a lot to do with the success of the committee, but she was not the chair. Thank you, Bennie Thompson.
