  1. And the Qanon nuts make the Tea Party look sane by comparison. Scary.
  2. 10 former Pentagon chiefs issue extraordinary warning to Trump. Former defence secretaries question Trump's willingness to peacefully relinquish power The Associated Press · Posted: Jan 04, 2021 2:30 AM ET | Last Updated: 3 hours ago The former Pentagon chiefs warned against use of the military in any effort to change the election's outcome. (Tom Brenner/Reuters) In an extraordinary rebuke of U.S. President Donald Trump, all 10 living former secretaries of defence are cautioning against any move to involve the military in pursuing claims of election fraud, arguing that it would take the country into "dangerous, unlawful and unconstitutional territory." The 10 men, both Democrats and Republicans, signed on to an opinion article published Sunday in The Washington Post that implicitly questioned Trump's willingness to follow his constitutional duty to peacefully relinquish power on Jan. 20. Following the Nov. 3 election and subsequent recounts in some states, as well as unsuccessful court challenges, the outcome is clear, they wrote, while not specifying Trump in the article. "The time for questioning the results has passed; the time for the formal counting of the electoral college votes, as prescribed in the constitution and statute, has arrived," they wrote. The former Pentagon chiefs warned against use of the military in any effort to change the outcome. (If anyone has any doubt remaining about Trump's willingness to use the US military in a coup, these people do not)
  3. Then he is the perfect leader for the UCP.
  4. Mary Trump, Donald Trump's niece and a clinical psychologist spoke yesterday about her uncle's mindset: Dr. Mary Trump, who is Donald Trump's niece and also a clinical psychologist, has publicly predicted Donald Trump's increasingly dangerous, aberrant and delusional behavior. Her bestselling book "Too Much and Never Enough" chronicles how her uncle came to be the man he is today, and the dire, almost existential threat that he represents to the United States and the world. In this new conversation with Salon, Mary Trump warns that Donald Trump will only become more dangerous as Inauguration Day approaches and he faces the last days of his presidency. She also suggests that Donald Trump is experiencing a severe psychological crisis because of his deeply pathological fear of "losing," and discusses why he seems so indifferent to the death and suffering caused by the coronavirus pandemic, and how he has a deep contempt for his own followers. In conclusion, Mary Trump issues a warning: There is no limit to the havoc and destruction her uncle is willing to cause in these final weeks before he is forced from office.
  5. Maybe his pacemaker stopped?
  6. Can't blame this one on 2020. She made it past the finish line.
  7. It is no coincidence that Mike Pence is leaving the US immediately after January 6th. Pence obviously fears reprisals when he accepts and announces that Biden has won the electoral collage.
  8. Larry King Fighting COVID-19 From Los Angeles Hospital Bed: Reports Talk show host Larry King has been hospitalized in Los Angeles for more than a week with coronavirus symptoms, according to multiple reports. King, 87, is being treated in a region where health care resources have been stretched to the breaking point as patients with severe COVID-19 have filled intensive care units and spilled into hallways across Southern California. His family has not been allowed to visit him because of safety regulations, CNN reported. King has faced a number of health scares in the past, including a 2017 lung cancer diagnosis, past heart-related procedures and a major 1987 heart attack. He also has Type 2 diabetes.
  9. The taxidermists are gonna have to work extra hard to keep her presentable.
  10. Aaaand....counselling someone to commit a criminal offence is called conspiracy to commit an offence and means disbarment.
  11. Sign In A Denver, CO Deli
  12. Its Alberta. Lots and lots of bull is normal.
  13. If what Trump is doing now is not sedition, I do not know what is. I hope that the Democrats use this to try to impeach Trump again, I would love to see him him removed from office and/or witness the GOP toadies defend him after this overt coup attempt.
  14. Obviously your medical expertise is limited.
  15. This coming week is going to be butt-pucker time.
  16. The GOP, as currently constituted and inhabited has passed the point of redemption and McConnell/Cruz/Gaetz bloc and they will not go quietly into the night. Once a limb is too infected, amputation is the only viable option.
  17. This is what happens when someone believes they are above the law and have total immunity. It is also why the Biden regime needs to aggressively and legally pursue criminal actions against all the GOP who have willfully and repeatedly defied the law and convention.
  18. Could it be that the free rein existence of the neo-fascists is coming to an end?
  19. Thank God this, as tentative as it is, has started. So far, the mom of one of my colleagues and the adult son of a friend living in St. Amant have both died of the virus. Rumour hath it that a prominent NHL player is very ill with it as well.
  20. This is the "yellow dog" effect as stated by a Manitoba Tory some years ago.
  21. And yet he sat on the bench for years. It does make me wonder what kind of judgements he handed down.
  22. No surprises here. The GOP made things as difficult as they could for Obama for eight years and now they have the guise of credibility because Trump said they do.
  23. Hard to believe a) that Trump supporters follow the rule of law and b) would have a hard time getting guns in Washington and c) they would be loathe to resort to violence
  24. Rep. Gohmert Calls for Street Violence as Another Legal Loss Sends MAGA World Spiraling. “In effect, the [court] ruling would be that you gotta go the streets and be as violent as Antifa and BLM,” Gohmert, a former judge, said. Far-right conspiracy theorists and ultra conservative members of the GOP—who have less and less daylight between them as the days go by—have gone into collective meltdown mode, apparently triggered, at least in part, by calls for violence by Congressman Louie Gohmert (R-TX) and Trump-allied lawyer L. Lin Wood. On Friday, U.S. District Court Judge Jeremy Kernodle, who was appointed by President Donald Trump, dismissed a hail-mary lawsuit filed by Gohmert and 11 Arizona Republicans that attempted to give Vice President Mike Pence the ability to overturn the results of the November presidential election won by Joe Biden. As the president of the Senate, Pence will preside over the ceremonial counting of the Electoral College votes, which have already certified Biden as the clear winner, on Wednesday. In an interview Friday evening on pro-Trump news network Newsmax, Gohmert falsely claimed that letting the will of the voters stand would “mean the end of our republic, the end of the experiment in self-government." Gohmert then seemed to encourage violence as a means to this end. “But bottom line is, the court is saying, ‘We’re not going to touch this. You have no remedy’—basically, in effect, the ruling would be that you gotta go the streets and be as violent as Antifa and BLM.” Louie Gohmert Calls for Street Violence as Pence Lawsuit Loss Sends MAGA World Spiraling (thedailybeast.com)
