Last night #45 made some threats and the judge has already responded.

I would certainly hope people wouldn't put our democracy in jeopardy by flipping their vote because of five days in office.
Is it bullshit? Sure, but talk about a privileged tantrum if that's the takeaway.

At the very least, it would likely depress voter turnout in the DMV. Realistically, I don’t see a full return to the office happening in that time frame for the feds. I know H’s office is in a brand new building, planned pre-pandemic and finished during the pandemic, that only has enough desk space for about 1/3 of the workforce reporting there. Everyone shares a desk with at least one other person and they stagger office attendance.

Honestly, I know they get asked and feel the need to respond, but I wish leading Democrats would not make personal comments like the "scared puppy" thing. Comment on letting the justice system and courts follow the process. Don't make personal comments like that because we all know he will lash out and it gives him the media coverage he craves and uses to fleece his base some more.

I parked at IAD terminal parking to drop off DD for her flight to camp. No joke over a dozen diplomat plates in the row I parked and a red car with a very strange black and yellow CA “US Rep” plate 🧐 Nancy Pelosi that you? 🥸
