"Hanging on by a thread!" "Still angry!" "Wishing you a Muellerful holiday season!" "Treasons Greetings!" That's the one

Anyone else find holiday card shopping this year totally aggravating? I looked through 3 different online shops to print our photo cards and everything was "best year ever" and "all merry, all the time!" Like where are my #resistance cards? Are these companies all based in Canada? Ended up with "peace love hope" which was about the best we could find. The ones I've seen that said that are able to be edited for a custom message (at least on minted) I realize now I should have hunted for that option.

John Dowd's insistence on arguing that POTUS can't obstruct justice tells me that he absolutely did.

Stumbled on to a thread of Berners this morning talking about how HRC voted for DOMA. Which passed in 1996. When HRC was the first lady. ::headdesk:: I can't remember if she did support it at the time or not, though. She might have. Even if she did support it...it was 1996. A lot of her views have changed over the years. A lot of Bernie's views have changed over the years. We are all on the same team guys. Besides the first lady totally gets a congressional vote, right? Head. Desk. Repeat.

I didn't mean to give any credence to their argument. I meant what you said and left out a whole lot of words. Views evolve with time, like you said.

He will continue to do this unless someone somewhere holds him accountable. In the meantime it's just the toys r us toy run. The world is the toy store. Trump is running around maniacally shoving all the resources into his shopping cart. Eventually the timer will run out, right? Right???

And like, I am not 100% convinced yet there was collusion, at least on purpose collusion. I just think they were all so dumb. But also the more Trump and people around him say "no collusion" the more I believe there is.

Views evolve with time, like you said. This is how I feel about the people yelling at Joy Ann Reid. She said questionable things in the past. But her actions in recent years indicate that she's an LGBTQ ally. We can (must) hold people accountable for their past words and actions, but if they show that they have changed, and they apologize for past actions, I really think we need to resist the temptation to banish them from accepted society.

Basically, if you tell me that your views or behavior haven't evolved over time I will assume you are either dumb or an ass.

Skippy's going to jail. Skippy's going to jail. Skippy's going to jail.
I feel like the amount of glee this brings me means I'm a horrible person, but I'm still a better person than Skippy, so I'll own it.

So, I’ve been thinking and does anyone think that once skippy goes down, Trump might resign? I feel like someone from his family going down will really drive him over the edge. And I can’t imagine what Ivanka will do.

I honestly feel slightly guilty about the amount of glee people in this administration going down gives me. Like in any normal circumstance, this would be a bad thing. It's still a bad thing. The stability of our country is going to be challenged. It already is.
But dear god, I need these people to get what's coming to them.

I'm trying to figure out who to support in my upcoming primaries. We've got both Governor and Representative next year. We need a strong candidate.

POC from Virginia on CSPAN caller talking about has a POC he fully supports Donald Trump because he is doing a great job and POC in this country should find themselves lucky and blessed that POC make as much as they do here in a non-POC majority country.
Does that sound to anyone else that they he is aiming to low for POC?

It's not on-the-nose appropriate, but we have enough northern VA peeps/ and it's infrastructure-related. They introduced tolls on I-66 inside the beltway (starting today, I think?) and I saw one screenshot that said $30 to get into Washington. Another commenter said she saw it as high as $34.50. I get that roads are expensive, but good goddamn that's high. I actually was driving west on 66 this morning and saw all the new signage. At least tolls going each direction are only on weekdays and during rush hours (west from 3-7 pm, east from 6-10am?) and no fee with HOV-2. There was a lot less traffic than normal heading into the city... I've seen the tolls lanes on 495 around $39. It's crazy. I don't know what I'd do if my options were to pay that kind of fee everyday or drive a long distance out of my way. Did they say if traffic was much worse on 495?

I get that roads are expensive, but good goddamn that's high. Yeah it started this morning. There's been a lot of twitter chatter about it today - personally I just *loved* this condescending tweet from an NBC reporter: There are more than a few who think people will start charging to ride with people - along the lines of "Hey, it's costing $30 to get into the city, I'll ride with you for $15*". Oh, and it's going to HOV-3 in a few years, isn't it? *(assuming you have the EZPass Flex)

The thing about the HOT lanes is that you don't *have* to use them. You can still drive on 66 without a toll, but you can pay a toll to ride in the HOT lanes solo

As much as I want to see Kushner in jail that's definitely not going to happen unless it's a state crime. He- and Don Jr- will get pardoned by Daddy faster than you can blink.

In the SF area, bridge tolls and the fact that they are reduced for carpoolers have led to a program called casual carpool. Basically people who need a ride wait at a designated stop and solo drivers pick them up (you need 2 passengers) and drive them over the bridge. The driver saves money and gets to use the carpool lane AND the passengers get a free, faster than transit ride into the city.

Imagine Ivanka Trump trying to run for president in 2024 if her father, brother, and husband have all been implicated in treason. What am I saying, ppl are voting for Roy Moore, so they will probably support Ivanka no matter what.
