Potato head is desparate now and feels cornered. Things are going to get super crazy because

he feels that he MUST win 2020 because SDNY is waiting in the wings to pounce as soon as he is out of office. But he has no wall, immigration policies are falling apart, infrastructure was never begun and healthcare was a dud. SDNY is a bigger threat to him than Mueller ever was, and they have indicated that they might push back on the “cannot indict” thing. Boat is going to get rocky. I feel sorry for asylum seekers.
NYT has article out now about how staff reacts to being asked to do something illegal (Tillerson left and Pompeo is willing to do anything for boss).

Do you think Schiff's powerful reply yesterday had anything

to do with Barr’s statement today about releasing report by mid April? Seems like too big of a coincidence to me. Anyone else, or am I just being paranoid?

My NYT comment has 926 "recommends". Subject is yesterday's vote.

Listed under nyt picks. Name is sharon from tn.

It’s also a NYT pick!


Sharon | Tn
I don’t have words for today’s vote, except that as a public school teacher for 40 yrs, I came to work every day with my integrity intact. My paycheck was certainly different from these so-called “national leaders”, but then I didn’t have to sell my soul to keep my job. I made the right choice. When did it become more important for them to be re-elected than to keep us from the abyss?

Biden Needs To S*** or Get Off

I thought of supporting Biden but it worries me that he apparently couldn’t get small dollar donors (according to knowledgeable people) and would have to rely on big money donations. Sanders, Warren and others have no trouble with small $ donations. I like Biden, but his age bothers me, also (78) I must admit. Appreciate any thoughts.
