Just knowing competent, non sociopathic people are in charge, knowing that every last statement isn’t a lie as insulting to my intelligence as it is outrageous

You nailed it.  Wow.

Thanks for posting the doggie!!

That’s why I clicked through, too, and grinched at the ad block. So very happy Yoda’s Brother posted it! Adorable!

Ugh ugh ugh that Nicki Haley tweet. “Proud of the selfless leadership he has shown in cancelling the convention.”

And he also said he wouldn’t name anyone until August, so not sure why the “still hasn’t tapped someone” is even there. 

From a commenter on the Times interview: “What kind of twisted world do we live in where Dr. Fauci gets threats on his phone because the facts make Trump look bad, and Rush Limbaugh gets a presidential medal for making Trump look good?”
