Instead of a message of hope in the midst of a runaway pandemic — a self-centered petulant blather (h/t Susie): Beyond the shitty attitude, incompetence and lack of any empathy for any fellow human, the T-Rump is screaming he won the election for a job he can’t handle and is allowing thousand of Americans to…
In the ongoing attempts to dismantle the flux capacitor operating our election system, this morning another hit on the T-Rump and the foolish attempts at pure lunatic bullshit (CNN): ‘Arizona certified its election results on Monday, awarding the state’s 11 electoral votes to President-elect Joe Biden and clearing the way for Senator-elect Mark Kelly, a…
Despite evidence to the way-contrary, the T-Rump continues to lie his fat-ass off about the election, screaming into the void of Fox News and his cult of lie-lovers — Maria Bartiromo interviewed/showcased the T-Rump this morning on her Sunday Morning Futures show, which left no doubt to the phony-as-a-three-dollar-bill future.

Interview with the great Sarah Cooper this afternoon at the Guardian, and a good handle on the way-down, real-scary threat from the T-Rump: “I feel that Trump has bigger fish to fry than Sarah Cooper. I think he has got stuff on his plate and so I’m not super worried that he will come after…

As I performed by daily routine of an early-morning first-sweep of news sites on the Interwebs, which includes one stop at IMDB to check the birthdays — along with Anne Hathaway, Ryan Gosling, and a host of others, including the late-great Grace Kelly, there…
