56. Good to hear Congressional members are putting pressure on the issue.

I hope the airlines get on this. Just do it. I'm not a fan of the no-fly list overall, but right now we really do need it. Airbnb sounds a little over optimistic about their ability to control things, but good luck to them.

I did hear about the reaction in DC neighborhoods. I feel for them. This video is a gem:




Edit to add text for deaf DU members and non-Twitter folks below. Language alert. Lot o' cussin'.

Man on porch: Get outta town! Fucking treasonous pieces of shit! (distant obnoxious horn honking)

Woman in car: I know. They really destroyed our city.

MOP: They destroyed the fucking city and it's like nobody gives a shit. If that was Black Lives Matter, they'd have tanks rolling down Pennsylvania Avenue, but they let these fucking crackers take over the goddamn Capitol.

WIC: It's true.

MOP: What the fuck is that?

WIC: It makes me teary-eyed.

MOP: (unintelligible)

WIC: Yeah, if it was Black Lives Matter, we couldn't even do none of that or we'd die.


I'm from GA and 'fucking crackers' still just busts me up because it's so true. What a sweet moment of community togetherness there. Love to both of these wonderful people.
