With the recent Limbaugh news, has anyone seen "The Brainwashing of my Dad"?

It’s an excellent documentary on YouTube that details the impact Rush Limbaugh has had on the Boomer generation. It’s filmed by a daughter watching her dad change as a person the more he listens to Limbaugh and watch Fox News, then how he changes back into the loving father he used to be once they cut Fox and Rush out of his life.

I’d highly recommend it if you haven’t seen it.

Ran into a Warren staffer at a Starbucks in Elkhart, Indiana

She was collecting signatures to make sure Elizabeth was on the ballot for the Indiana primary. Joe is my first choice, but I was more than happy to sign my name and tell her that I appreciate everything she and Elizabeth are doing for the party.

I think it’s important to remember that as the primary continues, feelings are going to get hurt as major candidates continue to drop out. If Joe doesn’t win, I’ll be excited to cast my ballot for whoever wins the nomination. We’ll need to come together to beat Trump in November.

If you voted Democratic in the 2018 midterms, pat yourself on the back

Because without your vote, this wouldn’t be happening.

Anyone seen DonViejo lately?

A glance at his profile shows he hasn't posted since mid-October. Anybody heard from him?

If you participated in the 2018 Blue Wave, you are a part of this.

We still have a long way to go in terms of impeachment. But, this would not be possible without taking back the House in commanding fashion in 2018.

If you:

Voted Democrat in 2018, pat yourself on the back.

Canvassed for candidates in 2018, pat yourself on the back.

Wrote GOTV postcards, pat yourself on the back.

Donated to candidates in the 2018 midterms, give yourself a pat on the back.

Or did anything to help the blue wave last year, give yourself a pat on the back.

Thank you. Without YOU, this impeachment inquiry would not be happening.

Awful CNN headline: Trump's self-impeachment may be Pelosi's worst fear

I'm not going to post the story because I don't want to give it clicks, but it's bizarre. Dems seem like they're making serious headway toward impeachment, and CNN's big, front page article online is a story focused on how negative impeachment would be.

Massachusetts prosecutors drop sex assault case against actor Kevin Spacey

Source: NBC News

A Massachusetts prosecutor on Wednesday asked for charges to be dropped against actor Kevin Spacey, who had been accused of groping a young man at a Nantucket bar three years ago.

Cape & Islands District Attorney Michael O'Keefe cited "unavailability of the complaining witness" in filing for dismissal in Nantucket District Court.

The case against Spacey appeared to suffer a fatal blow last week when Spacey's accuser invoked his Fifth Amendment rights after being questioned about his role in the deleting of text messages from a phone key to the case.

Spacey's defense had demanded to examine the accuser's cell phone that he had in the early morning hours of July 8, 2016 when the alleged incident happened at the Club Car restaurant and bar in Nantucket.
