DC is shut down because of protests, Megan McCain walked off The View (briefly) because Ana Navarro told her she didn't need to scream because she's two feet away, and apparently when you're a Republican President you can do whatever the fuck you want.
Happy Monday, everyone!

Trump's farm rescue plan, which was enacted in response to issues his own policies caused, is now more than twice as expensive as the Big 3 Auto bailout in 2009:

Or something.

If I had a nickel for the number of times this morning I have read, “I’m all for activism but not if it inconveniences people...” RE: #ShutDownDC
I’d have at least a dollar.

That asshole is skipping the UN climate summit today I've gotten to the point where I'm glad when he skips shit so he stops embarrassing our country. UN, please note the 4 million youth who took to the streets for climate change last week and ignore the orange asshat in the ill fitting suit who doesn't speak for 75% of us.

Well they can't blame this one on Mueller or Dems when the orange asshole has admitted that he did talk to the Ukraine prez about Biden. So now DEFLECT. DEFLECT AT ALL COSTS. LOUD NOISES! Someone's getting fired this week, I can feel it in my bones.

Schumer is demanding Senate hearings on the whistleblower
That should be an easy sell bc Burr is the Senate Intel Chair and he's usually ok on these things

I'm only half joking, there were actual people on this morning, saying we need to investigate hillz. Also 45 is at this very minute trying to flip the script to how Biden was wrong.

Insert Hillary's "why are you so obsessed with me" Mean Girls meme post Cool cool cool, so I expect to see McConnell regurgitating 45's comments later this afternoon.

We were waiting for him to be admitted (again) which is when we seem to have these and he was all, look I dont like him but the left needs to stop demonizing him.
I'm like DUDE STOP!!! They aren't demonizing him, they are upholding their constitutional duties. Hes committing crimes RIGHT OUT IN THE OPEN!! Are they just supposed to ignore that? Crime is ok if you are upfront and open about it? He has tore to shreds any sense of norms we've had until this point. AND he lacks the shame gene. At least Nixon knew he was wrong and could be shamed. Just because the crimes aren't being committed behind closed doors doesnt make them any less of a crime.
Well they need to stop this and focus on other things.
I went like the background check bills they passed in Feb the MoscowMitch wont bring to the Senate floor? They ARE doing both. But they aren't going to get anything passed if the Senate doesnt pull its head out and toss that turtle on his ass. Quit watching OneAmerica and maybe start watching some Cspan.
I think I made him think a little more.

Something tells me that the same people upset about Biden's son doing business with Ukraine are A-Ok with the Drumpf Boys conducting foreign business while their dad is president.

That’s what’s so depressing is that they don’t care. Any crime committing trash warm body is better than a SOCIALIST in the White House. He told us the truth the first time he said he could shoot someone in public and it wouldn’t make a difference. They will justify any crime he commits. And it just so happens that the American people are too dumb to understand these crimes so it’s all the easier for them to justify it.
Sorry if that is Debbie downer but that’s where I’m at right now.

Some days I'm like, "Warren/ Harris/ sometimes Biden is going to win and we can restore order in this country and try to begin repairing some of the damage caused by this administration!" and then some days I'm like, "Russia is going to help him again, people are still pissed about the Native American issues/ black women/ Biden worked with a black man and the midwest is all going to vote for 45 and if Bernie isn't the nom the other white bros are going to stay home and we're all fucked". So. I hear you.

So. I hear you. During the ER convo, my dad asked me who I was pulling for. I said at the moment its Warren or Harris, with Pete a distant 3rd. I would LOVE for Harris to be a nominee but pragmatically, I dont think this country will elect a WOC in this moment in time. The nurse happened to be in right about then and he started nodding in agreement (after saying he doesnt talk politics). He said he feels like at this point we're baby stepping and its either a MOC or a woman but not both. I was kind of shocked he said that. He wasnt dissing Kamala ftr. And I hope I'm proven wrong about Kamala.

I can't believe this trial hasn't even started yet? The officer who shot Botham Jean in his own home on Sept 6, 2018, the trial is set to begin Monday.
