2. We watched him, he was great.

They played some nonsensical clip aired on Fox with a Republican senator (Johnson?) and whatever he said was so ridiculous Franken couldn't stop laughing.

3. He's always the best, I just watched the repeat!

4. Founders?

Trump was Charlie Manson's worst nightmare! Why do you think he lost the will to live and just upped and died in Donnie's first year?

6. Coincidental that you'd mention Manson, his name came up just recently

Since just as Osama Bin Laden didn't actually fly any planes and Charles Manson never actually committed murder himself - but both were adjudicated responsible for what their "followers" did - and that has been compared to Trump's actions before the January 6th terrorist attack on the Capitol.

7. I think manson did though

One early victim and probably Spahn, the owner of the ranch, were murdered by him.

He did go into the LaBianca residence to show his followers how it was done after the Tate murders.

8. I did look it up since I had a conversation about this the other day

But you're probably right since what I read said that it wasn't "thought" that he had participated in any of the murders - and his "followers" certainly wouldn't have testified against him.

5. Love the Franken snicker

[BeyondGeography]

9. The Republicans "won't step up. They just won't."

He’s right, of course. Points for straight talk.

Thank you, Brian Williams!
MoRon Johnson is Wisconsin's em-bare-ass-ment. What WAS he doing in Moscow July 4, 2018?
Al Franken is a national treasure.
Thanks, Rhiannon!
