Morning

Question - IF Northam finally gets his head out if his ass and resigns, and Justin Fairfax becomes Gov, does that mean Fairfax can't run for Gov since VA is a 1 term state?

Asking because I have a theory.

Mornin' all!

That was the craziest defensive game I've seen in a good long time. Totally unexpected.

He can run again because he did not run for Governor. Lt. Gov is not on the Governors ticket.

What's your theory?

The website that leaked the pix, I heard had links to Corey Stewart. If this thing took both Fairfax out of the running for Gov then it could clear the way to Stewart to have a better shot at the seat. Its just a theory that popped into my head, have no proof behind it.

Stewart siad he's leaving politics and I really don't know how he'd get anywhere near the gov position since he's (I think) on the Fairax county Ds. Of Elections.

I can totally understand wondering if something is behind this.

These days I'm now suspicious of everything even remotely linked to the GOP

This is terrifying. I missed this over the weekend.
Citing multiple in-person episodes, these intelligence officials say Trump displays what one called “willful ignorance” when presented with analyses generated by America’s $81 billion-a-year intelligence services. The officials, who include analysts who prepare Trump’s briefs and the briefers themselves, describe futile attempts to keep his attention by using visual aids, confining some briefing points to two or three sentences, and repeating his name and title as frequently as possible.

What is most troubling, say these officials and others in government and on Capitol Hill who have been briefed on the episodes, are Trump’s angry reactions when he is given information that contradicts positions he has taken or beliefs he holds. Two intelligence officers even reported that they have been warned to avoid giving the President intelligence assessments that contradict stances he has taken in public. (snip)

The National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency (NGIA), which oversees the spy satellites that map and photograph key areas, had tried to impress upon Trump the size and complexity of the North Korean site. In preparing one briefing for the President on the issue early in his administration, the NGIA built a model of the facility with a removable roof, according to two officials. To help Trump grasp the size of the facility, the NGIA briefers built a miniature version New York’s Statue of Liberty to scale and put it inside the model.

I think a more likely scenario is that Northam resigns and Fairfax becomes governor. The VA Senate then selects a replacement Lt. Governor, who would likely be a Republican (since Republicans control the Senate).

Then they smear Fairfax to hound him out of office, and boom - Republican Governor.

Was just seeing hints of that with a link to a story on twitter about an alleged assault by Fairfax. He already came out with a statement of denial and that the WP already looked into this over a year ago.

It does seem like further proof that Republicans can't win without cheating or stealing.

This is the stuff of nightmares....

I won't embed the tweet, (link is above) but here is the text:
To visualize Trump’s natural appearance, awhile back tried matching the rest of his artificially tanned face to the natural skin color around his eyes.

They should have also made his hair all white

Afternoon,comrades!

Well, with some kind of smorts parade going on in this city, we won't be giving trolley tours tomorrow.

We do get to park two trolleys at a prime location along the parade route; we'll have a large contingent out there.

Believe it or not, with all the championships in this city recently, the last parade I personally went to was for the 1986 Celtics. Should be fun.

Oh yeah, I'm sorry you hate us. But then again, nobody on this blog is from LA, right?

So, a trio of neighborhood kids who like to stop by and say hi to our furkids on the way home from school decided to tell me they had the 'Sex talk" at class today.

I hope I did well when I told them sex is biological and very different than butterflies they have when they see someone they like.

This was two young women and one young man.

It was very awkward for me, as I am not a parent.
