This is pretty doggone cute, I must say!

Knowing that Blinken will be America's new Secretary of State ...

Mongo impressed! And VERRRRRRY PLEASED!!!

The adults are back in charge. For REAL. For the first time in a LONG time.

Although it just seems like a long time, when it's really only been four years (of trump). There were adults in charge all throughout the Obama/Biden years.

And remain in denial...

Indeed. An exceedingly worthwhile reminder!

This civilian appreciates it greatly!

I would have gone with something like "I can dream, can't I," but

I wouldn’t want Pence anywhere near the title of President.

Not even for the few minutes on the morning of January 20th on the heels of some deal he made with trump (I’ll resign/you get to be President/then you issue me a pardon/then we’re outta here).

Seems to me, that's a good way to handle it.

Pushback OF ALL KINDS is essential!

Add CONSTANT to that. Even more essential!

As for stopping or backing off or taking a break, they don’t.

And they WON’T.

So we can’t.

Yep! And she deserves an "A" too! An "A+".

Gonna be hard to find somebody to move her off the top. They’d need somebody named Aardvark or some such...

About calimary

Female. Retired. Wife-Mom-Grandma. Approx. 30 years in broadcasting, at least 20 of those in news biz. Taurus. Loves chocolate - preferably without nuts or cocoanut. Animal lover. Rock-hound from pre-school age. Proud Democrat for life. Ardent environmentalist and pro-choicer. Hoping to use my skills set for the greater good. Still married to the same guy for 40+ years. Probably because he's a proud Democrat, too. Penmanship absolutely stinks, so I'm glad I'm a fast typist! I will always love Hillary and she will always be my President.
