you can catch up on a number of channels. Live is cooler, but these videos are a full broadcast and you can share them with folks who don't watch You Tube

I watched the first 2 twice just to make sure I got it all

As it is, it allows for different viewing choices. Record and watch later, find recording online, and or watch snippets televised by a network such as MSNBC. I set it to record to watch later if needed. I fell asleep during the early part myself. And will watch the 8:00 with Rachel and others critiquing it.

It is not the same as Watergate when primary stations were local and PBS. Cable was just beginning.

The schedule began with 8 the first hearing and ends the last hearing at 8 too.

We had non stop, the entire OJ trial for months, and this broadcast of the most serious threat to our nation ever is not getting the coverage that it demands........................

I don't understand why it isn't on Prime Time, on every single major network.............

I had attended a big rally for Beto and began to feel bad about half way through. Fever, vomiting and incredible fatigue for about 3 days.

Hope you get better soon.

my neighbor brought me ginger ale, gatorade, imodium, pepsid, crackers and is picking up prescription for me this afternoon...

she left no stone unturned, even said she could test for Covid if I wanted (she's a nurse) wrong symptoms I think

DFW to Albuquerque transfer there to Phoenix

Phoenix to El Paso transfer there to DFW (I love changing planes in El Paso! Smallish airport, AA has new gate area with an abundant supply of charging stations and electrical outlets built right into these nice tables in the gate areas. Soft chairs, small crowds, couple of nice eateries. Anytime I can arrange a transfer there I will)

I schedule my trips with transfers because I use fewer of my miles.
Because I booked far out, my ticket only cost $11. I did buy flight insurance because the airlines are jacking around with flights so much. Worth $35.
I get a free bag check too

Yes but I have to take issue with that quote in this situation...the people who did nothing were never good people to begin with! Anyone who supported Trump, I don't see as a good person!

Seeing trump spew shit can’t help much.
I do agree with some of the trump cult early video today, where one of his face covered assholes said, “the penalty for treason is death”. Yep, got that right bubba. Now let’s get to carrying out that penalty.

get better...


I've got too much to do to be sick... because I have been lying on my sofa for three days, I did just take a short (wobbly) walk to my back treeline and got a terrific treat... a huge Pileated Woodpecker working on my trees... I think they are the king of birds with that bright red head!! it was special... he made so much noise that my first thought was bear, and I knew I didn't have the strength to talk to a bear today my MO with bears that come into my yard is to talk them down and if that doesn't work, I bang as loud as I can with whatever is at hand

and usually a pair will nest somewhere on our little wooded hill each year. When we're out walking, one will manic-screech our whereabouts to the other every 20 feet or so while tracking us overhead in the trees. Not quite the usual quiet walk.

No bears wander here that we know. Sorta sad, but not entirely.

Hope you're better tomorrow. Our problem's not been no good men of course, but too many sitting it out.

Emergen-C's and when I called the doctor this morning, she said potassium and then she called my neighbor to bring me some gatorade and drugs (benefit of living in sort-of backwoods Vermont)

hopefully I'm starting to be on the mend after three days of lying with piles of blankets over me

It really does make you wonder why ANYBODY would vote for trump, except for the psychologically, mentally, and morally challenged..
