Elderberry, Sambucol

We should add our own effort to staying safe, and not wait for the Ghoul Corps to tell us "too bad for you." Accordingly, elderberries and Sambucol seem like a promising start to our own research.

Has anyone taken either of these? What do you think?

Pence makes my skin crawl.

I know it's not nice. I should know better, and I'm sure there are plenty of people that I've met that can say the same for me. But, Pence is a public figure, is impacting my life, and is second in command. So, I make judgments.

The guy is like a ghoul. He seems like a reanimated corpse. Honestly, he is devoid of any warmth in his eyes or his face. I watched him on TV today, and his neck inside his shirt seemed detached. Put him in a Nazi uniform, and he could play one without effort.

I am not encouraged at all. And, I remember the shocked look on his face at the presser where he was named the man to run the fight against Corona. That said it all.

Recurring infection

I don't want to be accused of fearmongering. But, have you noticed the post in BN about the Japanese woman who tested positive again after being declared recovered? Here in California there was a news item that someone had gotten through quarantine, was released, and then came down with it. You know, they haven't gotten this quarantine business right.

The Surgeon General

Our current Surgeon General is Jerome M. Adams. Has anyone heard Dr. Adams speaking out about the Coronavirus, or is Trump ursurping his contribution to the discussion?

He has made many videos on health matters, but I would like to know what his office is saying about this current crisis. His term is almost up, but he could be a powerful voice that maybe we need to hear. Where is he? I can't find what I'm looking for.

Summer Olympics in Japan

Scheduled to begin on July 24th.

That's like, 4 months from now, especially when people arrive in advance. 4 to 5 months. How does this fit in with the Coronavirus? Good way to spread it all over the world.

How do you think it should be handled? Remember, Trump thinks warm weather will kill it, since President-for-Life Xi told him so. But, I'm skeptical of that.

I love watching the Olympics.

You know, Pelosi is investigating

the DOJ because Trump and Barr are trying to interfere with the sentencing of Trump's buddy.

So, Trump is tweeting his brain(?) out over the sentencing, then first one, then two, and finally all four prosecutors resign. And, Trump is also tweeting against the Judge.

In doing so, he implicates Barr. It looks like both Trump and Barr could be impeached. Two for one. I think Impeachment No. 2 is on the horizon. There are two many people telling the public that if we wait for the election, too much damage will have occurred. And, Nancy appears outraged over this last attempt to use the DOJ as his own personal weapon against justice.

If you were Barr, and it looked like you were going to be impeached, plus basically being censored by the ABA, what would you do? It could be that Barr is fixing to quit.

And, why has Trump brought back those people previously sent packing?

Hang tough, people.

Now, Barr has basically stated that he can't do his job because of Trump. That sounds like a set up.

I think it would be funny if Barr had Trump placed into custody under 25A. Would that placate the Dems so that Barr saves his own ass?

Hmmm...

This is my opinion only, of course

I want a female President. I voted for Hillary. I won't have any problem voting for either female candidate. But, I will vote for whichever candidate the Dems pick. I am voting Blue.

I think Mayor Pete has an uphill battle under load. I like him, but I am not sure he can win.

I think Trump did the job he set out to do on Biden.

The two billionaires: My first thought was, Oh Gawd, No! Two white, male rich guys battling it out. Plus, I don't know either one of them. But, Bloomberg is starting to grow on me. Why? He isn't going to run out of money. He says some obvious, non PC things about Trump that my heart responds to, and he seems like a hardnosed kind of guy that could punch Trump in the head. Also, I think that Trump will regard him as an opponent to be cautious with; the only thing we have seen yet is that the candidate is short. Trump has made up names to employ for his base, but, likely there are members of his base who are short, and they would be offended.

Those are the main candidates, I think. (Bernie aside.) I would like two of them to pair up as P. and VP, instead of picking an unknown as is traditional. This would require squelching ego in the best interests of the Country. Let whoever wins, win, then take the second winner and run that candidate as VP. Also could attach someone who dropped out, say Kamala, if that would work. Then you'd have two power houses to crisscross the country. They could be one step ahead of Trump/Pence.

Thank you for my heart!

It was my birthday this week! I didn't know what was going on until I discovered I got one! Thank you!

Faithless electors

Do you remember this term, "faithless electors," from 2016? This term refers to those Electoral College members who cast their vote different from what their state voters wanted. I remember passionately praying for them to save our country from Trump.

These are the men and women that can save us from a stolen election. They could vote for anyone other than Trump. There would be nothing anybody could do about it.

The other interesting thing that could happen is, if no candidate recorded the required number of EC votes to attain the 270 needed to win, guess who then decides the election results? The House of Representatives. Guess who controls the House? WE DO.

So, I think it is very important to keep pushing for the revelations of
Trump's malfeasance, so the EC can decide for itself if they want a monster similar to Hitler running our country. They are really the ones we need on our side.

Bloomberg gets around

I can't vote in the primaries. But I have an interest! I will be voting for whichever fine candidate the Dems pick to beat Trump!

I have been watching free science fiction movies with ads on YouTube. And who pops up? Bloomberg! He's putting forth a great effort. He has targeted California along with Steyer and Bernie. But YouTube is everywhere. His ads are about 10 secs long; blink and you miss them.

I want a female President. I wish there was more interest in Klobuchar. She's well spoken in debates and I don't think she would be intimidated by Trump. She seems to do her homework.

But, I am uncertain what kind of candidate will prevail against Trump, as I don't think "not Trump" is going to be enough.
