That's all I see here. I'm sick and tired of hearing about him. Seriously, it makes me sick to my stomach.

Could Michael Flynn be Q?

I came across this tweet and thought it was very interesting. Trump can't pardon him this time so he is scared and distancing himself? Who knows but it's interesting.

Joe Biden's Administration Is Starting To Look Like A Mullet

Biden has a centrist front and a very progressive back.



Gautam Raghavan, a former Jayapal chief of staff who also worked in former President Barack Obama’s White House, is playing a key role in many selections as the deputy director of the White House office of presidential personnel, she said.

Former Rep. Tom Perriello (D-Va.), a progressive who consulted with Biden’s transition team, downplayed the ideological differences. He noted the pandemic has prioritized both the need for experience in top positions and Biden’s desire for game-changing ideas throughout the administration.

“You’re getting a lot of people who have the policy experience to guide the next generation of big thinkers,” he told HuffPost. “Throughout his career, Biden has tended to be an incrementalist. But his wisdom and experience are pushing him toward doing big things.”

Some of these pairings are in the White House. Former Secretary of State John Kerry and former Environmental Protection Agency Administrator Gina McCarthy are the leading climate change experts at 1600 Pennsylvania Ave. ― Kerry is the lead envoy to foreign countries on the all-important issue, while McCarthy is coordinating the domestic response.

But filling out the White House climate team are three younger experts with more progressive credentials. Maggie Thomas, who was a top climate policy adviser to the presidential campaigns of Washington Gov. Jay Inslee and Massachusetts Sen. Elizabeth Warren, is the chief of staff in the climate office. Two other younger thinkers ― Sonia Aggarwal and Jahi Wise ― have also secured senior adviser roles.

Protestors force Legacy Salmon Creek Hospital into lockout

These people are completely radicalized.

Deputies noted that several people arriving were open-carrying firearms, and some had gas masks with them. A total of 22 deputies eventually responded in order to prevent an onrush of people at the entrance.

The release from CCSO says that during the confrontation, a number of people affiliated with the patient’s daughter attempted to force their way into the hospital after the doors had been opened to admit another person unrelated to the incident. Deputies physically pushed them back onto the portico.

One unidentified male again tried to force the door open and assault a deputy. After a warning, the man reportedly again tried to force the door and was sprayed in the face with pepper spray. No arrests were made during the confrontation.
