I have an idea

Why doesn't the press call a moratorium on all coverage of Trump & Co. until 2022, unless it's to announce indictments. Happy Holidays!

I predict the chances of Justice Clarence Thomas resigning in the next year are high

Given what we currently know, that his wife, Ginni, gave public support to the Jan 6th insurrection, I've been wondering what we don't know. As the investigation moves closer to the nexus of insurrection, it may get too "hot" for the Thomases.

"According to Independent, Mrs. Thomas is allegedly a member of a network of conservative activists called Groundswell. The group has close ties to Trump and his senior officials, according to the report. Thomas reportedly helped craft lists of “disloyal” government officials, and detailed memos are said to have been written by Groundswell over the past year-and-a-half."

A Little Inflation Isn't All Bad:

You may receive the first interest payment in years in your savings account for the holidays. Just saying.

About Joe Biden and Merrick Garland

I'm just an old woman esteemed by no one other than my children (most of the time). This is my take on these two men, who have met their moment in history, and of which much is expected by Americans and the world. Yes, the DOJ,operates independently of the White House, but let's be realistic., these two men have talked, at least to some extent. No, they likely don't discuss cases, at least not much, but I'm certain they did talk cases during their meetings before the nomination. I would go so far as to say they had a meeting of the minds about how the corruption of the last administration and especially the Jan. 6th insurrection was to be handled. These are two men, each in their own way, who are patriots, whose entire lives have been in the service of their country and ours. Like Churchill and Roosevelt, they will not let this abomination stand. I trust them to do the right thing for the country.
Just An Old Woman.

Michael Flynn is using what he learned from Al Quada to agitate in the U.S.

Yesterday Raw Story reported this from Flynn: "If we are going to have one nation under God, which we must, we have to have one religion," Flynn said at a ReAwaken America event in San Antonio. "One nation under God, and one religion under God." https://www.rawstory.com/michael-flynn-2655547552/
This is what he said about fighting extremism as an Intelligence Officer in the U.S. military: “Over the course of all those interrogations, I concluded that ‘core Al Qaeda’ wasn’t actually comprised of human beings, but rather it was an ideology with a particular version of Islam at its center,” Flynn said in the recent interview. “More than a religion, this ideology encompasses a political belief system, because its adherents want to rule things—whether it’s a village, a city, a region or an entire ‘caliphate.’ And to achieve that goal, they are willing to use extreme violence. The religious nature of that threat makes it very hard for Americans to come to grips with.” https://www.politico.com/magazine/story/2016/10/how-mike-flynn-became-americas-angriest-general-214362/

Question about DOJ strategy regarding Jan 6th insurrection

To the attorneys among us: Do you think the DOJ is waiting until the Special Committee completes it's investigation to make a public move on any of the major players behind the insurrection?
