The pessimism at this site is not helping the Democratic Party.

I’m not sure how he’ll do but in this environment he might appeal to voters who aren’t happy with the lockdown and also not happy with Trump’s Covid 19 bungling.

Special Counsel Robert Mueller is expected to issue findings on core aspects of his Russia probe soon after the November midterm elections as he faces intensifying pressure to produce more indictments or shut down his investigation, according to two U.S. officials.

Specifically, Mueller is close to rendering judgment on two of the most explosive aspects of his inquiry: whether there were clear incidents of collusion between Russia and Donald Trump’s 2016 campaign, and whether the president took any actions that constitute obstruction of justice, according to one of the officials, who asked not to be identified speaking about the investigation.

More to come.

Mueller needs to wrap up his investigation now!

Focus People! We have a senate election in Alabama and nasty legislation moving through Congress.

*For those of you who weren’t around during the Pie Fight, go look it up in the diaries. It was sexist and offensive then, it’s sexist and offensive now.

I’m not voting for...

President Trump asked the F.B.I. director, James B. Comey, to shut down the federal investigation into Mr. Trump’s former national security adviser, Michael T. Flynn, in an Oval Office meeting in February, according to a memo Mr. Comey wrote shortly after the meeting.

“I hope you can let this go,” the president told Mr. Comey, according to the memo.

The existence of Mr. Trump’s request is the clearest evidence that the president has tried to directly influence the Justice Department and F.B.I. investigation into links between Mr. Trump’s associates and Russia.

Stop retweeting his tweets. Stop cheering the smack down responses to his tweets. He feeds on this attention and these reactions and was able to win an election doing so. You might think he hates how Alec Baldwin and SNL are portraying him yet he still watches hoping desperately that they’ll do a skit about him like they did with all those other important presidents. My fantasy is seeing him turn on SNL and not seeing himself up there on the screen and totally losing it. I also fantasize that no one will react to him losing it — similar to my non-reaction to my four year old throwing a temper tantrum. She loses energy and we can more on.

Thank you.

I'm a born and raised practicing Catholic in a family of Irish-American Catholic Democrats. For me and my family, the Catholic Church isn't just a religion it's our culture: it's how we were raised, educated, interacted with friends, interacted with extended family, and how we will die.

Now I'll be the first to admit that the church has been a really pain in the ass over the last two decades with all the scandals and political games but I still practiced with the faith that the church of my childhood would return. I was raised under Vatican II and I was taught that this Jesus guy was a real decent guy. So decent that we would really have to work hard to be like him - I call him Hard Jesus because he challenges us. But my issue with the church over the past two decades was that the leaders in my church worshiped the Easy Jesus, the one guy who reinforced their inner bigotries and their love of lots of stuff. So how does a church who worships Easy Jesus change to the worship of Hard Jesus?

More below the cloud.

Tomorrow, I am dragging 26 people out of their beds at 7am and shipping them off to beautiful Milwaukee Wisconsin to canvas for Obama. That is me walking across the bridge to change the mind of an avid Clinton supporter. See the woman slugging me? Maybe if I bug her one more time I'll be able to convince her. :)
