So I went to FreeRepublic, curious what the brain-trust there was talking about.

Turns out nothing relevant to todays trial. Kinda wierd, as I would think that there would be plenty of opinions about todays events. But really, nothing. Not a frontpage story for sure. So I think they must be moderating the shit out of the Impeachment....like, no impeachment is happening.

So, I checked the rest of the frontpage stories to see what they might be whining about and saw this post-

Fox News cancels Lou Dobbs’ show and is expected to part ways with the pro-Trump host and this was the 2nd comment in the thread.

The force of the drain causes speedy circling. Paladin2 may be onto something.....

That's what I am here for! To get informed and entertain. It's a CV-19 two-fer thing.

It is Jim Robinson's long con. But, to keep the 24/7 fundraising going, he needs to prune the shoots of self-examination and, perhaps, enlightenment.

A dead tree can still be monetized for heat value......
