I doubt Mitch McConnell believes pandemics are real things, even with his personal history.  I just think he's distancing himself from Trump in order to save his Senate seat.

 

 

Couldn't it be both?

I live in a very conservative town in Michigan and it's scary to see that some people are CONDONING the militia that plotted to kidnap Whitmer. I'm already hearing a whole lot of, "Well she asked for it by being a bad governor." (She's a "bad" governor because she wants people to wear masks.) Other comments I've heard are, "She has pushed these people to the edge, what else are they supposed to do?" Others are just calling it fake news put out by the liberal media.

In other political news, Chris Christie has now been in the hospital for 6 days. No one is speaking about his condition, and his last tweet was sent on Saturday.

Truth is stranger than fiction, sadly. I'm ready for this soap opera to be CANCELLED! Immediately! Give them no time for a grande finale, a la Search for Tomorrow, Love of Life, or Santa Barbara.  Don't drag it out for nearly a year like As the Trump Turns. 

 

What's scary is that, aside from a landslide victory for Biden, we won't get our shocking series finale ender on Nov. 3rd. It'll drag out like a Real Housewives reunion or Secrets Revealed episode.

It still feels too far away. The main question I have is seniors, as I don't know how likely they are to not go back to Trump (Sheldon Adelson is running ads saying Biden will cut social security - from material by scumbags like Greenwald). Hopefully they will not go back to him. 

 

A part of me thinks Pelosi may have been better off not doing the 25th Amendment commission as it just riles the right's voter base up even more, but I guess they are always riled up, no matter what. 

 

Trump supporter and champagne socialist Walker Bragman is back to remind us that all white men who are in militias are just suffering from "economic anxiety."

 

One of those militia psychos who plotted to kidnap Gretchen Whitmer also showed up in a photo with human thumb Charlie Kirk.

    • In the current environment, while it's small, there is a crumb of good news: Apparently, San Antonio voted for a DEMOCRATIC mayor, Gina Ortiz, beating the "right-hand man" of Gov. Greg Abbott, former Texas Secretary of State Rolando Pablos. https://thehill.com/homenews/campaign/5337199-gina-ortiz-jones-wins-san-antonio/
    • Love this! You are both adorable. Wow
    • I have not gone back to watch much of 1987, but from what I've seen lately, it doesn't feel like the writers or producers had any sort of plan. The show feels as if it's constantly in flux.  I will give it credit for this. It's watchable for the most part minus Lisa/Jamie which I find nearly unwatchable now.   I don't find Cheryl mousy. I think she has a lot of quiet strength, but she was saddled with the Scott romance which the writers did not invest in. She had a good friendship with Julie (also criminally underused), and her interactions with Ada were enjoyable as well. I also like Layman, but Spencer was extremely talented and when Cass returns, Schnetzer and Spencer have some wonderful scenes. Spencer also fits in with Alexander, Hogan, and Marie.  I'd forgotten just how much I missed seeing Wallingford. IT was so good to see him again. Even when they didn't have a major plot, Felicia/Cass/Wallingford/Mitch always brings a smile to my face.  
    •   Dani’s cute ass party planner. He gave me some tea but I was so drunk I don’t remember it.
    • NBC must have been grateful to have LHOTP, it's only hit and still strong after several seasons. Their next established show was Rockford Files at 45th. They didn't develop any comedies and relied on movies and mini series  which didnt establish viewer loyalty and habits. Their only new hit was mid season's Project UFO which debuted Feb up against Rhoda/On Our Own on CBS and How the West Was Won on ABC. It opened with a strong 36 share beating CBS and close to ABC as HTWWW had a 36 share over 3 hours. The next week UFO saw a respectable 32 share, then a 31 so it was slipping. A 28 share followed but a few weeks later it jumped back up to a 34. So no blockbuster but compared to what else they had, there was potential, So next season NBC sent it to Thursday up against Mork and The Waltons and it bombed.  They were smart to see potential in Chips, which took off on Saturdaysnext season. ABC was on a roll with Love Boat, 3's Company, Taxi, Eight is Enough adding to their hits. Their only real flops were Redd Foxx and San Pedro Beach Bums, an Aaron Spelling misfire. Like Redd Foxx, Harvey Korman was lured to ABC but his series was a filler that did well but was considered a time slot hit. Nancy Walker and Rob Reiner were also given series on the philosophy that not only were they popular names, their absence from popular shows like Sanford, Rhoda and All in the Family might weaken those shows. CBS were relying on old favorites. Betty White was strong the first few weeks then faded. Incredible Hulk was their strongest newbie. It was lucky for CBS that NBC was doing so badly or else some of their weaker shows would have really suffered.
    • That outfit looks like something Martin would wear lol.
    • Omg not we both ran into people from the show this weekend!
    • I guess he was let out the gates, because he's outside. 
    • Yup.  You can hate John all you want, but like seriously he was the cornerstone of the show for years.  So he should get a long ass funeral and burial and all the things because Drake and John deserve that.
