I think we are about to endure the Mother Of All Shitstorms [View all]

The GOPeePeePenis is fearful in the extreme of losing both houses of Congress. That's why the rush for Kavanaugh, for example. The Court is their Holy Grail. But it is beyond that. They need to protect Orange Don like a hive swarms to protect the queen bee. To that end they will spare no expense, including congressional seats if need be. Rosenstein is the next issue. Listen for names you've never heard of to be tapped for replacement duty in DOJ slots where they can end or short circuit the investigation.

I don't even know what to worry about . . . except for everything.

Some people are saying we are watching to slow moving Saturday Night Massacre. I think a more apt term is to call this a slow moving coup d'etat.
