That’s what I first thought when it was reported a while back that an intensive search was being made to “identify” any documents that incriminate Trump.

The election is scheduled December 2. Although everyone in my community, and everyone I know, will likely vote for Van Epps, who knows? Elections can shift in either direction hours before the vote. Support for Trump shifted decisively just hours before Election Day on 11/8/16.

Epstein was a reliable source of psychological insight on Trump, and the Russians were lucky to have him. I’m looking forward to reading more of this document.

Not to mention, he bears false witness very glibly.

I’ll go out on a limb and predict that there will be movement on reopening the government fairly soon. I think Congress was waiting on this election cycle.

I don’t think he’s done any of his rallies the past year. Even when he wasn’t running, he always did rallies.

The great philosopher Stephen Colbert argued that reality has a well-known liberal bias. It was when the Washington Post chose to deny reality, or even the evidence before their eyes, that I knew it was time to cancel my subscription.

Once you reach a certain age, this is a prudent practice. I do it just walking down to the basement. However, like every middle school bully, Trump has made a career of mocking the pratfalls of others who do not have good genes, so he deserved this karmic mockery.

A friend and I wrote a letter to President Nixon (in those days I was a Republican) and received a signed reply. We were amazed that we got his actual his signature. Only later did we learn that it was likely an Autopen, an established practice in the early ‘70s. Johnson is dissembling.

This is interesting; I recently received a COVID booster at Walgreens but did not know (and never thought to ask) what kind it was, or who manufactured it. I blame this on a general information embargo on vaccines.

This was a group that I knew of at the time—due to the Mao reference—but it’s the first time I’ve heard them. There were so many inventive alternative groups then that got lost on radio.

Many articles proclaimed the same during Trump’s first term. His last year was such non-stop crisis that Joe Biden won by barely campaigning. Worse will come now because he is systematically destroying the opposition—with blessings from supporters and the Supreme Court. All we can do is prepare.

Trump is attempting to incite a general rebellion, which will give him the excuse to impose martial law. He’s got about a year to accomplish it, so he’s on schedule.
