Articles of impeachment against the president are dozens of items long. Many of his cabinet members are also impeachable. The fact that it hasn't happened means that Dems are too cowardly to push, and Republicans are too far up his ass. "Trivially obvious to the most casual observer."

ProPublica published children's letters and drawings documenting their sadness and suffering at Dilley. And Dilley staff are now retaliating by confiscating kids' letters and drawings.

How many of you remember this Dan Hicks song? I performed it live last night with some of my friends: Steve on guitar, Tim on bass and harmonica, and Susanna (of Susie and the Blue Dots) on backup vocals. No, there were no rehearsals! youtu.be/CCBZHd4FYhk

Last night, I performed this Tracy Chapman classic with my buddies Tim (on the left, acoustic bass and harmonica) and Steve (electric guitar). What fun to be on the stage with good friends, especially since neither of them had previously performed this song. youtu.be/MrFdu8SPNbQ

My theory is he gets a lolly every time he does something evil. A blue one when he violates the Constitution and gets away with it. A red one for breaking the law. An orange one for corruptly making money for himself, and yellow for his friends. And a chocolate one every time the Dems freak out.

Valentines Day, bought tickets to chamber music show at CU. Show was cancelled last minute due to performer's medical emergency. So, went to Dairy Art Center to see latest exhibit. They were between exhibits. And sold out that night's movie and comedy show. So went and got a pizza and took it home.

I maintain that abusing the pardon power is impeachable. Pardoning your own coconspirators, or taking money or other benefits in exchange for pardons, fits squarely into treason, bribery, and other high crimes and misdemeanors.

I don't know what "transgender for everybody" means, but I feel cheated because I sure haven't gotten mine yet. Maybe it got lost in the mail along with my George Soros check. Maybe that's why they broke the post office.

Remember, Bannon said their strategy was "to flood the zone with shit." Don't get used to the smell. Just pick one issue and focus the energy you do have on that issue. Don't worry, they're plenty of us around to make sure the other issues don't get forgotten.

Yet another reason these deranged fools need to be removed from power as soon as possible. Every ton of carbon released into the atmosphere is a commitment to additional warming that cannot be undone. Dem Congress in 2027 must put ending this Republican madness on their agenda.
Today, the Trump administration repealed the endangerment finding: the ruling that served as the basis for limits on tailpipe emissions and power plant rules. Without it, we’ll be less safe, less healthy and less able to fight climate change—all so the fossil fuel industry can make even more money.

Pardon power may be "absolute", but abusing the pardon power is absolutely impeachable. Both pardoning your own coconspirators and selling pardons is impeachable as treason, bribery, and other high crimes and misdemeanors. The problem is congress giving up their own power to their cult leader.

This proves that trump's move to steal Venezuelan oil is not just criminal but also stupid.
More than half of the world’s new electric cars are now plugging into Chinese sockets instead of lining up at gas stations. By 2024, it is estimated that China’s EV sales were growing about 40% year on year, even as some Western markets stumbled.

China sold 11 million electric vehicles in one year, leaving less room for the oil it used to buy from Venezuela
But there is a basic question lurking behind the headlines. Who will actually need that oil in the years ahead? For years, China has been one of Venezuela’s

Watching the United website daily as the price of the flight we wanted went up or down $100 daily. Finally went to pull the trigger today, and buying two tickets for my spouse and me the price per seat went up over $100. Why is buying two tickets more than double the price of buying one?
