Since February of 2017, every time the SOTU Address invitation is announced, ...

I start binge watching The West Wing on Netflix. This is the fourth time under Trump.

I just finished Season 1 Episode 10.

The scene at the end when they bury the homeless US Marine Corps Korean War Veteran in Arlington National Cemetery, I ALWAYS cry.

This will be the sixth time I have watched this series.

That scene ALWAYS makes me cry.

ALWAYS

I think it has to do with the fact that now, after two decades, we still haven't learned how to take care of our veterans.

Why I Support Joe Biden

This tweet from May of last year is why I jumped on board the Joe Biden bandwagon the day Kamala dropped out

This makes me much more comfortable with a potential Warren nomination

Elizabeth Warren wants to create a Justice Department task force to investigate Trump administration corruption

PUBLISHED TUE, JAN 21 20209:00 AM ESTUPDATED TUE, JAN 21 20206:44 PM EST

Democratic presidential contender Elizabeth Warren said Tuesday she would create an independent task force in the Justice Department to investigate corruption by government officials during the Trump administration.

The Massachusetts senator said her goal is to restore “integrity and competence” to the federal government after President Donald Trump leaves office.

“If we are to move forward to restore public confidence in government and deter future wrongdoing, we cannot simply sweep this corruption under the rug in a new administration,” Warren wrote in the plan.

I must admit, Bloomberg's ads are EXACTLY what the Democratic Party should be running.

Pardon Trump? Yang says he might

I find this stance disgusting...

Pardon Trump? Yang says he might

He wants America to be able to move past the Trump scandals.

A President Andrew Yang might pardon President Donald Trump.

One of the entrepreneur's 2020 rivals, Sen. Elizabeth Warren, has suggested she would appoint a task force to investigate Trump’s wrongdoing if she won the presidential election.

But Yang on Sunday said that would make moving forward difficult.

"You suggested ... that President Yang might pardon President Trump, why?" “This Week” host George Stephanopoulos asked the candidate.

Yang responded that he would listen to the guidance of his attorney general, but added, “You have to see what the facts are on the ground.”

“If you look at history around the world, it's a very, very nasty pattern that developing countries have fallen into, where a new president ends up throwing the president before them in jail,” Yang said on ABC’s “This Week.”

FINALLY, Recoveries exceed deaths in 2019-nCoV (Wuhan Coronavirus) Outbreak

12,024 Cases
259 Deaths
287 Recovered

Sounds like they've locked in effective treatment. I expect the overall death rate to drop now.

7 cases in the US, there was another in California. Shows it is mostly contained here and with flights to and from China stopped, the spread will likely die down in the U.S with only one person to person transmission being recorded in the US.

I see this entire outbreak as having somewhat of an upside now because it is preparing the world for how to react when a worse outbreak comes, and if the history of medicine teaches us anything it teaches that eventually, there will be a worse disease outbreak eventually.

It was a run that lasted almost 233 years, Ben.

In the end, we couldn't keep it.

This Tweet from The Hoarse Whisperer sums it all up brilliantly
