My last post before noon January 20, 2021 (post #2020)

...will be to simply wish for this country and our world, that the years following will be a stark reversal of the years preceding. That we will learn from the errors of our ways, while standing united against hatred and collective self destruction. Although this year has been scarred with devestating regrets, we can be reminded that there will inevitably be better ones to follow. I hope through our dedication to justice, unity, and love, that the broad transformation to bring us together as a nation will come swiftly and without extensive grievances.

Good luck to us all, and I hope to post again following the inauguration of our first black female vice president.

Republicans blocking court nominees in order to appoint their own justices

Is stacking the court. Just as passing a law to increase the number of justices in order to nominate your own judges is also stacking the court. Just saying..

Wondering if police are realizing these "militias" are not their friends...

And maybe start treating them with more animosity like these groups are trying to kill them, and less like deputies of the law.

One of the first steps of a Biden presidency should be to reinstate the assault weapons ban.

That should help derail the lawless gang movement substantially, I would think.

The morons are nothing without their guns.

My ballot has been received after I mailed it in, BUT

So I checked up on my ballot and was delighted to see that my ballot was received and accepted after it was scanned a couple days ago by the post office to say it was on it's way to the elections office. I mailed my ballot at the same time as my wife and dropped it into the same post office box. I went ahead and checked on hers as well, to find that not only has it not been received, but it still hasn't been scanned by the post office as being on its way to the elections office. What gives?

I don't think Biden should have agreed to the town hall

Or any more debates. Not only is there a danger involved with interacting with more people -especially the covid king, but there isn't a whole lot to gain from it as he is beginning to enjoy 10-15 point leads heading into the mid and sometimes upper fifties. More exposure is probably risking losing some of that advantage.

My dem candidate for state senate is awesome. Running on Edwards' Two Americas

in a purple district with a scandal ridden Senator. California already has a strong filibuster proof majority in the state legislature, but I imagine this guy would be an excellent addition:

Watching Biden's incredible speech in Gettysburg

Some of it brought tears, and I have one thing to say:

Joe Biden -assuming he wins in November, could very well go down as the greatest president of the 21st century.
