Yeah, I got it.

I have to agree

We are at this point for a reason. When Nancy Pelosi took impeachment off the table during the Bush regime many of their worst crimes became precedent. Only torture was eventually abjured. The rest--indefinite confinement for unproven terrorism charges, essential elimination of habeus corpus, politicization of intelligence, and the big one the invasion of Iraq--became the norm. So, when Obama took over we saw the results of this--he was unable to close Gitmo because it was now normalized. His administration expanded remote drone warfare against targets that often turned out to be civilians not terrorists. Oh, and one other thing was normalized--stolen elections. I think that history, if it is ever accurately written (remember the winners write the history), will show that the day that the Supreme Court handed the 2000 election to the loser of the election in a stunningly partisan move that was essentially a judicial coup de tat. The stealing of elections was therefore also normalized.

Now we have the logical heir to the amoral Cheney/Bush administration where all norms are being shredded. Trump has no Poppy Bush telling him that he doesn't want to be the one to go down in history as the President that ended the Republic. Trump and his cabal have stolen an election, blatantly violated the emoluments clause in the Constitution, are currently committing crimes against humanity by imprisoning refugees in conditions that have proven fatal to over 50 at this point, seem to be actively trying to destroy our relationships with our key allies etc. The list is endless.

And, again, Nancy Pelosi has taken impeachment off the table.

I think Nancy is a brilliant tactician, but an extremely poor strategist. I think we would be in much worse shape if she was not Speaker, but I think that she is making a terrible strategic error by not supporting articles of impeachment.

Of course

This is what Trump always does.

It is a lie—as is virtually everything he says.

He may ultimately claim that he never met him.

Very glad that you found relief

I have a chiropractor that was a physical therapist. He does things that no other chiropractor does.

That excruciating treatment was to get the fascia of your muscles to release. When it gets tight like that it causes pain and weakness that you describe.

The deep tissue massage that your therapist did hurts like hell, but when it is over you’re essentially cured.

My chiropractor cured my plantar fasciitis while my former podiatrist gave me 3 ineffectual steroid injections and recommended rhizotomy (nerve ablation). It took 5 visits but the plantar fasciitis has not returned.

Old bodies (I’m about to turn 64) do some really weird things that are very serious in terms of mobility and daily function.

Glad you found the right person.

Glorious!

Not a peep out of Trump

The Usurper has been conspicuously silent. He just can’t be the bigger man.

Trump's Brownshirts

I grow weary of Nazi comparisons—but this show fits too exactly.

Usurper

Trump wants to be a king. Let's use the word that is applied to fake monarchs. He is a usurper.

Trump is the living embodiment of the 2 tiered justice system

If Trump was not a rich white guy he would be in jail now.

He has raped, groped, leered at under age girls and according to one of Jeffery Epstein’s victims raped underage girls. He’s also committed tax fraud, money laundering, defrauded many a contractor, and conspired with a hostile foreign power to usurp the Presidency.

His bio is basically a rap sheet.

It sickens me that he has gotten away with all this, but it underscores that we ceased to be a nation of laws some time ago—if you can even string together an argument that we were ever a nation of laws.

If he’d been any sort of minority he would be in prison.

Bishop Swan is spot on.

Weasel

Apparently, Rod Rosenstein is a total weasel. All that crap I read about his moral rectitude and incorruptibility was Washington bullshit.

I’m shocked 😱...
