My summary of the day - Trump is illegitimate. Hillary should be president. But we all know that.

We've gone down the rabbit hole. This is simply beyond the pale. It is all there - trump's guilt - but Barr and republicans simply don't wish to go there, so that is that.

I didn't watch any TV, this is my first time here today, but I listened to some coverage on NPR. I really have no words for the anger I feel right now.

We have (hopefully temporarily) lost our country.

nails, and knows the routine.
As an aside, how big are your tomato plants so far this year? What strain do you prefer?

Too busy giving talks and transplanting!

I've grown around 4000 different tomato varieties in my 40 years of gardening. I have a top 10 list - Sun Gold, Cherokee Purple, Cherokee Green, Cherokee Chocolate, Brandywine, Ferris Wheel, Lucky Cross, Dwarf Sweet Sue, Polish, Lillian's Yellow Heirloom!

It was hopeful, uplifting and full of facts. It was a damning report for the maggot. Congress needs to impeach, is my conclusion.

I have found several but I am currently using http://watchnewslive.net/watch-msnbc-live-stream-24-7-free/ for free live streaming MSNBC. If that would be too much of a drag on your system I also have a free audio streaming site I've been using in the car for a while now. Let me know if you'd like that url. It's on my phone. I can send it to you from there, no problem.

I hate ads, I hate things being repeated - just dislike TV, period - we use our TV to stream movies - that's about it.

I get all I need reading breaking stories and posts here.

MSNBC was phenomenal this morning. No commercial breaks for something like 4 hours. But that was just this morning. I understand disliking TV. I mostly watched Movies. I'm looking for other options now. Pretty sure We're getting modded fire cube.

We ended up cutting the cord on cable tv yesterday.

I appreciate that you took the time to provide it for those of us who are now in dark.

although it will be a slow and arduous trip. A lot is going to depend on the 2020 GE.
