If I Had The Chance to Address Or Ask The Supreme Court Something,

I'd ask: "EXACTLY, what CAN'T Trump do? What EXACTLY isn't legal or allowed? Murder? Burglary? Seems like everything else is fine with you. Don't you see that you are next? Just look at what he's doing to the judiciary. He is in the early stages of taking your jobs. Burying your 6 heads in the sand will not be helpful to your well being, or that of this country."

Any Of You Ever Get The "American Community Survey" Through The U.S. Census Bureau?

I got one today, and I hope it was legit. The notice I got in the mail said that my husband and I were "randomly selected" to participate in this survey. The notice said that our response was required by law. The purpose of the survey was apparently to "improve roads and reduce traffic, build schools, plan for the health care needs of the elderly. As I took the survey, I documented each question. I noticed there were a lot of questions about "other people" living in our house (We are both retired and are the only ones living here). They seemed to repeat/ reword the same questions. A little confusing. The questions seemed like they wanted to know if we are immigrants (we aren't) or possibly have immigrants living with us (we don't). The questions about jobs were repeated, even though one of the first questions was answered "retired". They wanted to know if we were Mexican/Latino, etc. I answered that we were not, and the next question asked what specific ancestry/ethnicity were were AFTER I answered their question. Color me suspicious.

Katy Turd Strikes Again

She was just on talking about the Democrats "problem" with patriotism. (paraphrasing) She said something about how they (Democrats) don't see themselves as patriotic, and gave examples like wearing flag apparel, etc. Barbara Boxer mentioned after that bullshit, and said non party owns the flag or patriotism, which Turd implied. There was a man there too, who just wrote an article (for The Atlantic I think). I don't remember his comments. As K.T. introduced him, she admitted she botched her intro. I think the author of the article had a tactful response to Ms. Turd.

Just my observation. If I have mischaracterized anyone in the segment, please correct me.

Snakey Mikey Seems Awfully Jumpy & Uptight

He is voting for the discharge petition but yet he's bitching about it in this press conference. He's talking really fast and contradicting his own vote in his little speech.

Heard In A Redneck Bar In Northern Wisconsin

Some guy was bitching about immigration & "illegals". Another guy, a big guy with a beard & hunting cap said "You don't know what you're talking about. We're all immigrants. The only ones who aren't are Native Americans. They were here first." The other guy shut up & went silent.
Edited to add that it was at my husband's pool (billiards) night.
True story.... last night at a pool hall/bar.

Any Of You Use 1441 (A News Outlet)?

I never have, but I don't want to subscribe to something if it's faux "news" lite, etc.
