Michaelangelo thanks for your report! Only on rare occasions to I hear you on Sirius since I hardly drive anywhere. I did catch you talking about President Joe Biden's dogs and what a wonderful thing that there will be pets in the WH (and a REAL President!!). Yes and I say President because he is being one right now.

One of my favorite indie yarn spinners offered entry to a raffle for each $5 donation to Fair Fight and a couple other organizations in Georgia, which raised over $15,000!! Course I had to donate and buy yarn too. The prize was yarn for an amazing sweater. It will be nice knitting a lovely sweater instead of pink pussy hats.

Also you can find patterns on ravelry.com for a Joe Biden doll, 2020 dumpster fire ornament, and RBG dissent sweaters, hats and other things. (I'm not advertising for Ravelry but love the site) especially when they told Trumpers to STFU on the message boards.

Tristate girl good comments.

In California we are in another shelter in place, I'm fortunate that I am able to work from home though I am a nurse practitioner (I prescribe meds for a VA smoking cessation program). Haven't had to go in on the front lines...yet...though I did callbacks for positive tests as part of our labor pool. And my sleeve is rolled up and ready for that shot!

44 days till the Orange Beast is gone. Maybe even less for the ooozing farting lead "legal" team.

sorry to digress! Too much morning coffee I guess

Thanks Liz! And I'm so, so glad they'll be pets in the White House. It shows humanity. By the way, if you have SiriusXM subscription for you car, you can listen online in the house or on your phone for free, just comes with it. Just either go online on your computer, or better yet, download the app on your phone and listen on your phone. (For others who don't have car subscription, there is an online only sub that can be purchased, just go check out the SXM site).

I made a contribution to FairFight last month. I also have cousins in Atlanta who have bern active in increasing turnout for Black voters.

I would like someone, anyone in mainstream media ask all of these racists a couple of questions: by what means do they think African Americans originally came to this country? Who built the house their beloved racist leader is infecting in Washington, DC? How did their racist ancestors acquire the land in this country when they sailed over centuries ago? I would really like to hear these ignorant humans answer basic American history questions.

Spot on...and another question , why weren’t the slaves compensated by a land grants, at the time they were freed. What a different road to true equality that would have made over the centuries.

Exactly. People like Loeffler, Purdue, Trumps (excluding Mary), Jared Kushner basically claim that we are responsible for our poor treatment and lack of opportunities. Yet how can we be held responsible for conditions we never created from the start? We didn’t ask to be defined as 3/5ths of a human being.

It's like the moderators just didn't get it and none of the media gets it or is too afraid to ask.

People are saying she stood so still so as not to reveal the wire, through which she was being fed answers, hidden by the hair on her left side. https://www.ibtimes.sg/kelly-loeffler-caught-wearing-wire-during-georgia-senate-debate-was-she-being-fed-answers-53972

Watched the Loeffler & Warnock debate. Loeffler used a politically outdated tactic to attack Warnock, this attempt will appeal to the old white Repugnants, whose numbers are diminishing. The south has been changing over the last decade. Georgia in particular has attracted younger more diverse voter who will not be persuaded by old political rhetoric uttered by an obvious superficial wealthy white woman.

Hard to believe that she is part of the party of Lincoln. She looked more like a Stepford wife and acted like one as well!

i could believe how much she didn't move. No emotion, passion of any kind. Just heartless policy.
