And just now the fatal ICE shooting in Minneapolis. We definitely are a demented nation.

Woah. How messed up this all is. You remember an American tail? With the mouse? You brought to mind the mouse for me, which tickled my memory of the good guys winning against all odds. “Wewease the secwet weapon!!!!!!”

This fascist racist corrupt cancer is spreading. This will end very badly for all including the rest of the civilised world. America rogue state! And plenty of wannabe dictators getting inspiration and craving to copy paste. Insane. Time for this announced small asteroïd to fall on washington??

Excellent and horrifying. But I am never giving up hope that in the long run we can save this ship from total collapse.

So the Republican Caucus members just sat there and politely applauded? That mess was worse than the Mad Hatter’s Tea Party! At least one of them could have suggested that “The President” might need a little lie-down.

Thanks for your analysis. Clear-eyed as usual. You give me faith that we can get through this and that America still has people built from the "right stuff." You are such person Jim, and I thank you for all you do to help your fellow Americans and fellow human beings. We will stick together and beat this thing. Never give up, never surrender, celebrate the small victories. This is not easy, but we can do it. The non-demented team has an inherent advantage. We just need too stay in the game long enough, persevere, and keep our sights on the light at the end of the tunnel. Then we need to hold the demented criminals accountable and put safeguards in place so this never happens again.

I'm trying "hopeful" today. It might be coming out as "giddy".

I'm not shocked anymore,Jim. I can't help but wonder, where's the Leadership in Congress?! I'm hoping we can elect and Embold a Democratic majority this year, but I'm not holding my breath at this point. Good hearing from you this evening, Happy New Year to you and your readers, and will reStack ASAP 🙏

I agree, Karen. I’ve been calling my representative daily to urge impeachment again. All of us, in our respective roles, can be using our energies to push in that direction. I trust we will reach a tipping point, eventually. Gandhi said not to worry about the outcome, just take your action every day. 🌻
