Wish they would show Don Jr's video

of the rather jolly gathering of trump & his "in" crowd watching the gathering of rioters on TV. They are playing "Gloria" and Kimberly and Don Jr are dancing... trump is watching intently.. but hey.. there is a riot in the making...

I just have to say something



I hate "smarmy" and most of the repubs being interviewed today on the news channels are the epitome of "smarmy"

I am also sick to death of repubs getting away with infractions..like Rand Paul.. if he won't follow the rules, eject the bastard.

I am frustrated with the coverage. When Chuck Todd & Andrea Mitchell come on I turn the channel, but CNN is not much better
I don't know if I will ever ever get over this horror show. I try to give people the benefit of the doubt. I try to be kind and empathetic. But I am furious that they have allowed the co-conspiritors to stay on the jury. I am livid that they are trying to normalize the coup..that I believe is STILL going on. ( Am I over the wire here? - it's hard to tell these days) I am so tired of being angry and frustrated.

I live alone so I don't have too many people to talk to, hence the rant on DU.

Thanks for reading this, if you did.

Also, thanks again for the hearts. When I say they lifted my spirits, I really meant it.

Wow I am blown away!

I started to write this thank you note to everyone who has been sharing hearts and discovered more hearts had been given to me!

It sure seems there is a lot of love going around here. Not that DU isn't supportive and mostly friendly all the time, but I feel a definite vibe this year, like something further is being shared. I read a lot when I come here every day, but feel pretty invisible most of the time, and when I got a heart my "spirits were lifted" and then there were more hearts, just out of the blue! I don't know really know anyone here, but I am truly feeling the love today.

Thank you Thank you

Wow..I am so touched and surprised

Usually, I feel like I'm pretty much invisible here, but some dear person gifted me with a lovely heart.

Thank you.. you really made my day!
