A reporter called out Ron Johnson for faking a phone call. “I can see your screen.” he said. Call someone, and cover the camera on the top of your screen, and the display goes black. This is so you aren’t hitting buttons while you’re talking. I have seen three commentators mention this, and make a big deal about him faking a phone call to ignore a reporter. Maybe he was, maybe he wasn’t, but you can’t tell because the screen is blank. Also, I have protective glass on my phone so you likely couldn’t see anything even if there was something displayed if viewed from an angle.

Stupid rant, I know, but making a big deal about something that isn’t a big deal, then being wrong kinda looks bad.

Maybe I’m missing something.

anyway, carry on.

Are they writing the script for their own end?

Pompeo:

"His regime is morally bankrupt, it's economically incompetent and it is profoundly corrupt," he added about Maduro. "It is undemocratic to the core."

Is the trump administration writing the script for their own removal?

I apologize for the nothing diary, show me where I can place this as a comment and I will delete.

Thanks

It seems likely we will take the House, so investigations and impeachment would be possible.

I’m hopeful regarding the Senate, but even the best case scenario leaves us shy of the super majority necessary to convict, and remove, our idiot in chief.

Without the help of republicans in the Senate, or cabinet members willing to put our country before their own careers, I don’t see how we can remove this dumbass from office before the end of his term.

What if we can shorten his term?

We can start a petition to postpone leap year until 2021, thereby shortening this presidency by 24 hours.

I don’t know how to start a petition, or to whom it should be addressed, but what can it hurt? I’m thinking the Union of Concerned Scientists. They’re the ones that do the doomsday clock, right? Seems somehow appropriate.

Alternately, or in addition to, we could petition Washington D.C. to observe ‘Daylight Saving Time’ starting in mid January, 2021. That would vacate that chair an hour sooner.

If we don’t at least get the control of the House, I suspect the U.C.S. will be busy with the Doomsday Clock.
