Does anybody ‘really’ care if Mike O, Pelosi, et al attend the inauguration or not?
I know I don’t care… There are only three people that are ‘required’ to be there.
Chief Justice John Roberts, who will administer the oath, Donald J. Trump, and Melania Trump to hold the bible. He is going to use his personal bible and the Lincoln bible for the oath.
And all that ‘globull warming’ is going to be so cold, they are moving it indoors…
I was in Arlington, VA for W’s second inauguration and both Obummer’s inaugurations, and believe me, there was DEFINITELY a difference in the crowds and attitudes. I stayed in all three times, especially the Obumbecause I didn’t want to deal with the ‘stupid’ on display as the flood of $$$, egos, and attitudes came into town.
I do find it funny that millions of $$$ are being ‘donated’ to Trump for access to the balls, meet and greets, and the inauguration itself. A friend got to go to one of W’s balls, and she said it was ‘tiring and overloaded with people’. She did enjoy seeing all the Texans in their cowboy boots and Stetsons, and noted how polite they were, but the tension of everyone waiting for W to show up was ‘irritating’ according to her.
In other bits, Fauxahontas is questioning those same high rollers as to why they are donating to the Republicans, HERE. Funny, they never did that when THEY were in power…
And Xiden commuted even more sentences yesterday, bringing his total to something close to 5000 criminals he’s (or whomever is running things) letting loose, HERE. The administration is doing everything they can in the last few days throw roadblocks in front of the Trump administration, including putting drilling off limits, more free passes for illegals from Guatemala, Venezuela, and I think Haiti. They are doing so many I can’t even keep up!!!
This one… BLM is ‘demanding’ a Safeway in Fillmore (SFO) remain open, even though they are losing $7000 a month in theft, cause there will be a ‘food desert’, HERE… Ummm, if they didn’t steal the store blind, they might have stayed open…just sayin…
Reminds me of when DC tried to strongarm Walmart a few years ago, after they bought land, and were going to open a store in the district. DC tried to tell them what wages they had to pay, jacked up what Walmart would have paid in taxes, and I ‘think’ there was a clause about the minimum number of years they had to remain open. Walmart just walked away from the whole deal, and I think they sold the land cheep!
And this one is just odd. Why now?
When Congress approved the ERA on March 22, 1972, it set a deadline of seven years for the necessary three-fourths of the states to approve it. That deadline came and went on March 22, 1979, with only 35 states approving of the amendment. Thirty-eight were needed, so that was that. In 2017, however, as the #MeToo movement was cresting, Nevada became the 36th state to approve the ERA, with Illinois following in 2018 and Virginia in 2020.
Full article, HERE. 40 years too late…
In the good news category, Israel has approved the cease fire with Hamas to bring the hostages home, HERE! This has been a long time coming, and I can’t help but wonder how much impact Trump’s statements made to ‘quickening’ the negotiations.
And Navy veteran Zachary Young won his lawsuit against CNN!!!
The basic award is $5M, with punitive damages still to come, HERE. Granted, lawyers will get a big chunk of that, but it is a win for the little guy! And it did expose CNN’s dirty laundry about what they think about us peons…
