It's no secret that I have little use for the current Metro transit chief but at the District press briefing today a reporter asked him what about the (largely low income) population that rely on Metro to get to work and he did the verbal equivalent of a shrug and moved on. So, ya know, not great Bob. 😬

They’ve closed more roads and bridges into the city. Basically not planning to leave my neighborhood for the next week. We are keeping DD2 home from school Wednesday and considering Tuesday just because of logistics at this point.

Just taking a breath to acknowledge that we have checkpoints set up in the Green Zone in the nation's Capitol. I need a minute.

I hope they plan for snipers on the rooftops and Biden and Harris wearing bullet proof vests.

Good grief. The knots they tie themselves into to continue to make their conspiracy theories work. A third of this country is going to lose it's collective mind when Biden is inaugurated.

It’s a career position, not appointed, so they want him in there before Biden becomes president.

I'll just hold my breath til after inauguration. and for the next few months as the wackadoodles start to realize they aren't going to get anywhere and it starts to feel "safe" for Biden and Harris. Because I just keep feeling like the other shoe is going to drop--meaning some Q idiot is going to be throwing shoes (or bullets) or some shit.

Well this is terrifying if true. I always take comfort in remembering if Twitter knows about it, the *insert tinfoil hat "they're always listening" agency* does too. This time the cat is out of the bag and they wont be concerned about the optics of it all, because they know they will do this crazy shit

It’s been relatively easy how to Google bomb building for years now. AQAP actually championed this tactic, then picked up by ISIS. The Boston Marathon Bombers looked it up, for one example. There’s some sick irony here that these people are using the same information and tactics.
