This is what happens when you know that Trump will give you a pardon, this is a sample of what you get back when you request Postmaster De Joy daily schedule, 

A typical day at work for Postmaster General Louis

The absolute abuse of power. I hope he goes to jail too. All of them. Call it prison reform, GOP Edition. Or, Cell Mates: Washington..

It sounds like Trump will try to get his new AG to have a special prosecutor investigate Hunter Biden, Trump needs to be very careful with going after someone's kid not that he cares about his except for Ivanka

If he goes after Biden's son then watch them come after his family once he is thrown out on January 20th. My hope is Trump has to deal with criminal charges & lawsuits the rest of his miserable life.

Trump can, and probably will, pardon this turkey, but it ought to be possible for the USPS to civilly sue him for non-performance of his duties and thereby taking his salary under false pretenses.

How is it that after reading this statement about a sitting Senator, that several dozen names come to mind...”He is the most destructive, worthless, moronic, cowardly swine to ever disgrace the halls of the senate.”

Think about that.

In this case, it happened to be Ron Johnson.

Well, its nice to have choices, don't you think?

Trump Lashes Out After Mitch McConnell Congratulates Biden: 'Too Soon To Give Up'


"Republican party must finally learn to fight," Trump tweeted, one day after the Senate majority leader finally acknowledged Joe Biden and Kamala Harris' win.

President Donald Trump called out Sen. Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) in a frenzied tweet on Wednesday, one day after the Senate majority leader finally acknowledged the victory of President-elect Joe Biden in the Nov. 3 election. 

In his tweet, Trump shared a report from The Daily Mail detailing how some of his supporters — like former aide Sebastian Gorka and right-wing broadcaster Nick Fuentes — criticized McConnell for congratulating Biden. The president stressed that he had received 75 million votes, said it was “too soon to give up” and added that the “Republican Party must finally learn to fight.”

Trump actually received about 74.2 million votes, with Biden surpassing him to hit 81.2 million. Trump has alleged without evidence that many of these votes were “fraudulently or illegally obtained.” 

(Awww....Moscow Mitch and Donald Dumpster aren't best buds any more. Another rodent tries to save his credibility.)

Yeah well..  It's pretty obvious at this point that he's going to be president.  The bigger threat is maybe his health or scandals but in that case it would be Kamala who gets sworn in. 

No, he would still be sworn in. What "scandals" exactly would prevent him from being President?

Meet the Dangerous QAnon Figure Doing Whatever It Takes to Win Trump's Approval


On Monday night, President Donald Trump retweeted a message posted by Ron Watkins.

Watkins, who for years has been running the site where QAnon lives, has been indirectly boosted by Trump before, but Monday night’s retweet marks the culmination of a rapid ascent for a man who has become the right wing’s go-to conspiracy theorist in the wake of President-elect Joe Biden’s election victory last month.

As the administrator of 8kun — previously known as 8chan — Watkins is seen by many experts as being instrumental in the perpetuation of the QAnon cult, a movement that has destroyed families and led to real-world violence, including murder.  

But in the last month, Watkins has sought to step out of the shadow of QAnon and forge his own identity as a star witness willing to say whatever it takes to win the approval of Trumpworld.

On Election Day last month, Q, the anonymous persona behind the QAnon cult, posted a generic update including a quote from Abraham Lincoln and a short message: “Together we win.”

On the same day, Watkins announced that he was stepping down as administrator of 8kun, the fringe message board when Q posts their updates.

When asked why he was stepping down, Watkins at the time told VICE News that he “fell in love with woodworking and plan on focusing all my efforts into mastering it. Also want to finish a book I’m writing about constitutional law.”

And while Watkins has made some references to woodworking in his public tweets since the election, the vast majority of his posts show him positioning himself as something of a conspiracy whisperer to the growing ranks of right-wing figures and groups that have aligned themselves with Trump and his outlandish and baseless claims of election fraud.

Watkins, who now lives in Japan, has tweeted incessantly during the last six weeks, jumping from one conspiracy theory to the next.

I don't view it so much as preventing him from being president but moreso as an easy way out. Im talking about the Hunter Biden Scandals which involve Joe Biden in the role of "the big guy".  My view is that Biden never really wanted to run for President but that he kind of got roped into it and that at some point the plan is for him to step down and have Kamala Harris take over so that she is the incumbent in the next election and doesn't face opposition in her own party.   I would imagine that scandals or health issues will be the reason provided for Biden stepping down.

Humpf. Haven't you heard that Biden single-handedly corrupted the recent election?

Hohoho.. Biden had nothing to do with the voter fraud. He's lucky if he can dress himself.
