Wolf Blitzer today tried to browbeat Pelosi into taking the GOP stimulus deal, even though to my knowledge the Mnuchin 1.8 trillion deal (with UI benefits and stimulus checks) is not even what's on the table - last I checked, McConnell instead wants to pass a 500 billion 'targeted' bill with small business relief and absolutely nothing else.

 

It did not go well. Thread:

Thank you for getting that up, @Vee. I watched, and it was magical. Wolf was furious.

 

"With all due respect, and we've known each other a long time -- you don't know what you're talking about."

 

She also called Wolf out for repeating Andrew Yang's talking points.

 

Her: "Thank you. Your sensitivity to our constituents ..."
Him: "I am sensitive."

    • As another gay woman, I'm interested in what you may be thinking. Does it have to do with Chelsea's newly found interest in a WLW pairing? Or is it about something else?
    • this applies to so many characters through the years, LOL
    • What a terrible opening scene. It was definitely not what we needed after such a great episode yesterday. Luckily, the following scenes were much better. And Doug III and Johnny looked hot

      I’m glad that John wasn’t completely forgotten about today though. The children got to absorb the news about him yesterday but today, it was the grandchildren’s turn. I would’ve liked to have seen Tate, and Johnny go see John, but I enjoyed Johnny and Chanel comforting him after his visit, even though the acting was a little… ehhh. And Johnny’s speech to Chanel about John was a bit of a tearjerker. I’m so glad that they’ve decided to name one of their future kids after John. And I like how happy the two of them are, but I’m looking forward to the next conflict, especially with EJ’s shooting still lingering.  But yeah, it also appears that Gabi has a lot to learn about her daughter. I liked how Arianna hinted that Gabi wasn’t around all that much when she was growing up because that is completely a fact lol and it could play into their storyline in the future. And I really hope that Arianna

      Speaking of Arianna, she and Doug III were kind of sweet together. I don’t mind them going at it so quickly but I still think we should have seen more scenes with them last week. I’m looking forward to seeing what happens for the two of them, and for Tate/Holly, etc. Btw, Doug III is so broke, yet he was able to pay for a room at the Salem Inn And yeah, Paul/Andrew >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Javi/Leo
    •  Lookin’ better than a body has a right to  
    • If it's really that good I'll have to check it out. Where to start? I won't know who half these kids are, Higley and co. added way too many.
    • Right.  The reason we get Y&R a day ahead and have for ages (and I think at one time did with DAYS too?) has something to do with the fact that it airs very late afternoon (it used to be 5pm where I live but now is 4pm) so at some point because it aired after the US air time--or so I was explained--that would default to the next episode.  Or something. At any rate, this isn't the situation here.
    • She looks fabulous. Nothing close to that. 
    • Testament had a unique financial situation. It was originally intended as an American Playhouse production for PBS, then Paramount decided to release it as a film (and then it did eventually air on PBS before the pay channels). The problem was, the cast didn't get any extra money because of this. So, yeah, I can understand why Devane had his mind on his money and his money on his mind.

        Ok yes, the "My Guiding Light" music is so good. I do go back and forth with the overall opening though, as it comes across as a sitcom to me, which I get would have been popular in that era. And honestly not something I was used to seeing on the ABC soaps that I watched in my youth, so it's different. I know Another World has a similar style opening with a great theme song and similar video clips in their opening.  ATWT - ok yep, so it was that late. It's so hard to believe that show didn't have a more updated opening in the 90s. I think their first character opening was originally yellow-toned, but then went to a blue hue shortly after, which was much better. The opening that debuted when I was watching regularly in ~2007 was awful, I don't know what they were thinking with that one. BTG is ok, I'm just thankful it's slower with the cast graphics. The GH opening from the past ~10 years is seizure-inducing with how fast and furious it is. Y&R has always been and hopefully will always be iconic. Not that I watch the show, but I try and keep up with the openings across the board because I'm just obsessed with TV show openings, especially soaps haha.
    • Thanks. I wonder if Lisanti tried to get in contact with her about the book. She would have had interesting perspective.
