"Most of the ads are not about issues. They're sort of like the debates," the CBS CEO said.

Moonves said he was joking. Yeah, the joke's been on all of us who hate seeing the world blowing up around us, and where vigilantes can 'guard' voting drop boxes in Arizona thanks to tRump, his cultist party, and enablers That so-called liberal, but is mostly right-winged, greedy for ad dollars, views and clicks media.

And gods help us, Marjorie Taylor Green has made it clear he owes her big-time and that she’ll be at his elbow.

We have been so lucky to have Nancy Pelosi (“She’s too old!” ) and to have Joe Biden (“He’s too old!” ) in these perilous times. But the natural course of age and elections means we won’t have them forever, so I surely hope the exciting young hotheads are taking binders full of notes on how those jobs get done.

All the best to Mme Speaker and her family.

In her 80's, she deserves rest and to just sit back and enjoy two hundred freezers full of ice cream with husband Paul, her grandchildren, 🍦🍧 and if she wnats to sit back and scarf down a pint, hellyeah 🍨

But I feel if her husband makes a good recovery and if Dems hold the house/senate, she will fight back and tell those who tried to kill her and who ended up almost killing her husband, "I'm not afraid of you," and she'll have one more term as speaker. Leave on her own terms, but all depends on her husband's recovery.

Nancy's a tough chick, If I can call Madame Speaker that

… the presidency.

That Nancy Pelosi has been demonized from coast to coast just for being a woman and a Democrat and an effective member of Congress definitely plays into it. But the overarching fact is that by virtue of her position as Speaker she is in a very special place indeed — and the RW fascists want to assassinate her.
