Anita Hill ready to hold Biden accountable

From CNN:
"I'm ready to move on, but I am also ready to hold Joe Biden accountable. Accountability means acknowledging your role in a problem and the harm it's caused. Acknowledging that you have culpability," Hill said.

No one shows up to Joe Biden debate parties

From the Philadelphia Inquirer, in Biden's home state of Pennsylvania:
https://www.inquirer.com/news/joe-biden-enthusiasm-philadelphia-sad-watch-parties-elizabeth-warren-grassroots-fundraising-20191020.html


"The two men watched in silence and both left before the three-hour debate ended. A reporter turned off the TV on her way out. Bradford’s was one of three watch parties within a 20-mile radius of Center City registered with the campaign. None drew more than seven people."

“What surprises me is, Philly, you’d expect it to be Bidentown,” she said. “It really hasn’t felt like that.”

Enthusiasm matters when it comes to winning elections, whether some like to admit it or not.

Question about Roku and a wired connection

Have a Roku streaming stick plus and picture from wireless is sometimes blurry due to slow download speeds. Would upgrading to a Roku Ultra which has an ethernet port for a wired connection help? Blogs say it could but if the download speeds are slow from the router how much would it really hep?

Thanks in advance.

Rep Raskin: IG briefing paper looks like a hit piece on Bidens

He just said that on CNN about today's briefing. He held up the "document' and said it raises more questions that provides answers, and it look like just unproven charges against the Bidens. I.e., just another clumsy attempt by the idiots at the WH to derail the investigation.
