I am SO going to implement this in the habitus at my house: I will clean this toilet, and when it is over, I WILL BE THE HERO. ANYTHING I DID WILL BE PRAISED.

Anyone who takes part in the witch hunt against me ... I will lay an evil curse upon!

This part of Germain’s post is really puzzling me:

What’s your evidence that VP Joe Biden’s work in removing a prosecutor who was blocking all corruption investigations helped his son’s position on the board of a firm whose investigation had already concluded a year earlier?

Yeppers. I am married to someone who is infuriatingly capable of cosplaying the righteous Bernie Bro at random unexpected moments and have had juuuuust about enough of that shit at home, thanksverymuch. lol

Yep. I am truly relishing the probable circumstance that Trump jeopardized his presidency for a competitor who very possibly isn’t even going to run against him.

Not that I’ve seen (not that I’m any expert). I mean, he’s clearly a screwup of a failson who only landed the insanely-salaried position he did because his dad was VP, but this doesn’t distinguish him from any other famous wealthy kids, and there’s no evidence he’s participated in anything actively corrupt like the…

Precisely this.

Don’t worry, he won’t drop out, his ego won’t let him. Warren was already starting to best him in the numbers before this went down. He’ll shuffle his way into second or third place in the primaries and gracefully bow out then.

That video of him grabbing the young woman environmentalist’s hands and thanking her for “admiring him” as she attempts to query his appointment of Big Oil staff is beyond cringe factor 1000000. Thweet thufferin thaints.

Because is shines a light on his son’s cushy posting making $50k a month and Biden’s willingness to push for things to ensure that doesn’t get jeopardized...

you will trip over yourself to correct the blatant lie while verifying that you don’t consider the underlying corruption a problem worth addressing

Oh, I’m fully expecting him to nix any trial at all. Best if we all accept that at the outset, I think, and just focus on what the sheer process can bring.

I can’t see Collins doing it; she’s gone full dark side these past two years and even an impeachment vote wouldn’t save her from her D constituents, they are out for blood after the Justice Rape Train debacle.

We’ve finally (!) gotten it through for the next presidential elections but our otherwise-supportive governor mucked around and delayed it so it won’t be implemented for the primaries. But better late than never. I agree, it’s a brilliant system that gives third-party voters some modicum of power in this otherwise…

Gross. That doesn’t have any ominous historical precedents, or anything.

Ooh, so likely. Their machinations are so convoluted and dumb, usually based off an incorrect primary assumption.  “All the best people!”

I was slayed earlier this week by the perfect description of Matt Gaetz as “a frat paddle in human form”. Who’s got an equally apt one for Lewandowski?
