And I had more generals than I've ever seen, & we were at the bottom of this incredible room. I said, 'this is greatest room I've ever seen. I saw more computer boards than I think they make today.'"

First, what is a "computer board"? Second, WTF.

I believe the Donald is referring to the WAR GAMES MOVIE boards they have.

I personally could only glance at it.

Cheap gas is a tax cut.

Re USA economy, I am told cheap gas is no longer a net positive because of our number one production position.

I do not know that to be a fact, but it is plausible.

“She’ll cut your head off and you won’t even know you’re bleeding,” Alexandra Pelosi said of the likely incoming House Speaker. "No one ever won betting against Nancy Pelosi. You've got to give her credit, no matter what you think of her."

Getting lots of air play, so why not acknowledge the kind of warped respect Nancy's daughter has for her. 8-)

I almost missed that was humor...

The stoping to drink a beer thing with the live Instagram was weird. Hire a director or something rather then be all in on the awkward just a common Joan thing. Looked perfectly natural for her.

Here is the 2019 political agenda.

The really treasonous crap they have on the Donald will come out.

Donald will be removed.

Lots happens next, lets focus on those two steps.

The ptbs say that the Mueller team knows everything.

It is going to be a year to remember.

Nancy Pelosi is Speaker of the House and that's a beautiful thing.

No wall for Trump.

SAD!!!

While we’re looking at mountains of trash, videos of people for wheeling through sensitive areas of national parks, and news reports of families pleading with the government to re-open so they can get paid, there is an AP report a team of government officials headed to Turkey to discuss returning Fethullah Gulen.

People are pretty much awful

Ugh. It's the quiet stuff this administration does that is so much worse than the showy things. Don't get me wrong, the Muslim ban and locking kids in cages is awful, but it's the behind-the-scenes undoing of government protections and human rights advances that are truly damaging in the long-term. If they hand over Erdogan's rival to him for execution, that's simply disgusting.

In the noise I missed this nugget from a month ago:

Conservative pastor E.W. Jackson [on] his radio program [began] with an outraged rant about a rule change that congressional Democrats are proposing that would reverse a headwear ban on the floor of the House of Representatives.

The change would take effect next year, when Democrats resume control of the House and welcome the most racially diverse and most female freshman class in U.S. history, which includes the first two Muslim women to serve in Congress. One of them, Minnesota Democrat Ilhan Omar, wears a headscarf.

“The floor of Congress is now going to look like an Islamic republic,” Jackson said

note: I edited out the 'yesterday' type references since this was December 7th.

Big day. Democrats take control of the house. Hopefully they do something in the next few weeks.

google news link to a new piece this morning about NK sending another 'great letter' to Trump resolves to the story about the Danish train wreck. I do no think it is a mistake.

I look forward to them sending back the previously approved McConnell bill unedited with the exception of a big green checkmark so turtle can refuse to bring it back up to the Senate.

He already stated he won't bring it up, despite it previously passing 100-0, simply because Trump doesn't like it.

It's just a game to him.
