What’s the take on the Raphael Warnock domestic violence allegations that were revealed last night?

I am plutonium level hot about the Blackwater pardons I've seen so many headlines talking about these politicians and I'm just... WAR CRIMINALS. Screw the money laundering or whatever, innocent people were gunned down in a public square! He pardoned war criminals. They murdered children.

I think we all knew all his buddies would get the pardons. But actual war criminals and killers of kids?

This story is weird as hell. If he ran over her foot with an entire ass car how would every bone in her foot not be broken? I am passing no judgment in either direction on this one.

I’m off work for the next 12 days and I nearly cried with relief last night. It’s been such a challenging year professionally. Some really great accomplishments but some really trying times. I’m going to take a screen break and spend time looking lovingly in the eyes of my family (lol). So if I’m not around much over the next 1.5 weeks, that’s why.
I love you all dearly and wish you so much happiness and peace this holiday season. We did it. We made it though the dumpster fire and lived to tell the tales. And oh what tales we will tell. I don’t think we even know the half of it yet and look forward to all the gossip that will be revealed as soon as the orange baby is relocated.
Xo my friends.

I don’t know why FB is showing me Trumper cousin after I blocked her, but she shared a daily wire article about how trump is going to block the stimulus and wants more. She’s praising him as for the ppl and the responses are all “good, people need more”. Do they not follow that Rs have been the ones not advocating for the people but instead corporations?!

Is there anything documenting who asked for what in the relief bill? Or do any of you know? My super trumper BIL is blaming dems for "gender studies for pakistan and fish studying grants". Just wanted to see if those pieces were truly something we asked for but I haven't been able to find that breakdown.

I saw this story on Warnock - I find the timing of the accusation suspicious, as well as the medical findings. And, taking a moment away from Christmas cheer, I'd like to take a look at the ex-wife's bank deposits of late. There's always at least two sides to a story, but this wouldn't change my vote without quite a bit more substantiation. link

Just wanted to see if those pieces were truly something we asked for but I haven't been able to find that breakdown. Any bill this large includes lawmakers' pet projects. Always. It's just part of the process. There's virtually no way anything that small actually held up the bill; The direct payments, the liability shields and the actual size of the stimulus were the sticking points. Anything else tacked on is just sausage making. For example, there's money in there to clean up Long Island Sound. It would be really hard to get Mitch to put that on the floor as a standalone. But he DGAF if it's tacked on to this.

It’s also a super bill that combines covid relief and the omnibus. Something Trump seems to be confused about.

I've been sort of checked out this past week and only grabbing headlines

The COVID is just a very small part of it. This is literally the bill to keep the government running. If it doesn't pass, there is a shutdown

I love this group too jaygee. I have learned so much, and you've all kept me (mostly) sane during this truly ridiculous/horrible administration. Some days I'm still like, holy shit I am *so grateful* that Biden was elected (though I realize there is so much to undo and do).
This morning has been great- yoga with adriene, I got a whole foods gift card from my boss so I splurged on Christmas treats, and I don't have to be at work until the 4th. I'm going to write some more postcards this morning to Georgia voters, and blast my favorite radio station. I wish you all nothing but happiness and thank you for being such a smart, funny, kind corner of the internet!

I hope it’s clear I don’t support the pardons- I absolutely don’t.
The conflicted feelings are coming from watching the video of him greeting his little girl- she is 5 and SO excited and joyful. I’ve met the daughter a handful of times and she is darling. I’m happy SHE is happy, and I know this means a return to a more “normal” life for her. They have been visiting her dad in prison since she was teeny.
But he and the others still deserve to be in prison. They murdered innocents. And children. Ugh.

I'm laughing at the guy who asked what a Jumbo was and how he wanted it. Turns out it's a giant ass poster of Trump and he was like, I really don't want a Jumbo now.
