Video of a man leaving Gatlinburg is terrifying!

They did make it out. You can hear a dog in the background. I gripped my tablet so tight I thought I would break it.

10000 animals were left behind at the Ripley's Aquarium. The fire is almost on it but it's raining.

Could we get autumn leaves or snowflakes to buy and

distribute like we do hearts in February? I guess asking if people want them would be good. Think it might raise the spirits.

I do not recognize Donald Trump as the President-elect.

Nor will I recognize him as President.
This is not about policy differences. I have had major policy differences with many elected officials. This is not about being a sore loser. I was upset about Bush v Gore and the shenanigans in Florida but I accepted those results.

This is about a foreign government directly and openly supporting one candidate and the possible hacking of votes. In addition, this is about the close ties and conflicts of interest that Donald Trump has with Putin and Russia. Until there is a complete and transparent investigation of this matter, Trump is a clear and present danger to this country.
There should also be a concurrent investigation into Trump's conflicts with other countries. The potential for him to make decisions based on personal gain is unparalleled and huge.

I am not calling for violence. I am stating my position however little effect it will have. I am not repudiating my American citizenship. This is my country and there are many people who represent the ideals it was founded upon even though they have dimmed.

I know this will have little or no effect and it will probably be ridiculed. Be that as it may, this is my position. It is one that I never thought I would ever even consider.

America is better than this and should be fought for.

Donald Trump Jr. Held Talks on Syria With Russian Supporters

Donald Trump Jr. Held Talks on Syria With Russia Supporters
Disclosure of the Paris meetings in October could heighten focus on the president-elect’s desire to cooperate with the Kremlin
By JAY SOLOMON
WASHINGTON—Donald Trump’s eldest son, emerging as a potential envoy for the president-elect, held private discussions with diplomats, businessmen and politicians in Paris last month that focused in part on finding a way to cooperate with Russia to end the war in Syria, according to people who took part in the meetings.

Thirty people, including Donald Trump Jr., attended the Oct. 11 event at the Ritz Paris, which was hosted by a French think tank. The founder of the think tank, Fabien Baussart, and his wife, Randa Kassis, have worked closely with Russia to try to end the conflict.

Ms. Kassis, who was born in Syria, is a leader of a Syrian opposition group endorsed by the Kremlin. The group wants a political transition in Syria—but in cooperation with President Bashar al-Assad, Moscow’s close ally.

WTF?

Could we get "snowflakes" or "autumn leaves" to purchase and distribute like

we do hearts in February? It might bring some needed cheer and needed funds.

Well I'm back on Facebook.

This will be interesting.
How long before I burn my timeline down and a lot of the quislings with it?
I will try to point out changes or destruction to Medicare, SS, etc.
I have a feeling that will be futile.

Any bets?

I posted the Radney Foster video there.

1-Medicare 2-Social Security 3-Aspects of FADA. We have to MOVE NOW!

RIGHT NOW we need to get out in front of these issues and talk about the destruction and changes coming. It needs to be a a complete assault on all fronts.

PFAW, MoveOn, etc need to switch to blasting out the changes that will affect everybody. At every turn, Dems on every level need to talk about the ISSUES that the current appointments will bring about that will affect them.

I would love to continue to call Jeff Sessions a beady-eyed, big-eared KKK stalking horse who has the brains of a pod of okra bless his heart. That just turns this into name calling and deflects from what's coming.

The GOP plans a blitz of legislation that they have NO mandate for. As infuriating as it is, don't argue about the vote. Argue about the issues that will affect those you confront.

We have ONE month to try to build a head of steam against this blitz. If these issues can be exposed and the real affects that the GOP will have on everybody, this will be a chance to really nail Senators and especially congressmen. The House members and some Senators have to answer in two years to the voters. Pick out districts now and find candidates to start hitting those in office. We have to try. This is the level to pound on.

It should begin to peal away those who aren't staunch Trumpers. At the very least, it can begin to make cracks in their plans.

Get out of your stupor if you are in one. Get out of your house. Talk to those who you know personally and point out the changes that they will feel and those that are going to hurt you. I will have to grit my teeth and do this.

The protests going on now need to lead with Trump will change Medicare, etc. if we just call him names like Butternut Turd, his supporters will answer in knee-jerk fashion.

We are better than this. We are smarter than this. We have ONE month to show this and frame the issues in our favor.
