It will be important if we hope to guide ourselves through the current morass, whenever a trump supporting republican speaks, to envision hundreds of thousands of corpses hanging around their neck as a result of republican bad judgement and wrongness.

If assigning criminal culpability would help the public in this regard, then prosecution of the evil rat bastards infesting the republican party is certainly advisable.

You know where I stand. I truly believe a lot of this shit was purposeful.

Jared cleverly admitted as much. Covid donald admits to nothing. Admission requires grammatical skills an perspective far beyond his ability as a human being. Fortunately he left lots of evidence on various forms of tape, public and professional, now in the public record.

Trump First to the Last

Thanks LB,  Will get this one inked up tomorrow,  want to make the Fat-assed ShitHead look his best!  Maybe add a little watercolor.

I think the center head captures him amazingly. The right side head reminds me of Brando.

he: "I don't agree with all of his policies and not a fan of his personality but I thnk he has gotten things done.  Peace talks with the Middle East and NK.  Limited Chinese influence and power on the US.  Made all politicians on both sides feel that the status quo must change.  ."

I stand corrected. As I typed that post I knew something was oph but just couldn't put my phinger on it. 

Nonetheless as we give our thanks to the voters of the newly rebuilt blue wall, including Pennsylvania, it brings to mind the timeless words of W,C Fields,

Resilience has docked with the ISS.

They're still doing the connections and other items, so nobody has transferred yet. But it's there!

Good piece, except for the assertion that it's a step that "President-elect Biden can take right away."

Sure, he could indicate that it's among those he will do on Jan 21, but that's still not the same.

Well, warfare continues to go high-tech.
I was talking about the successful Azerbaijani drone warfare against Armenians in Nagorno Karabakh.
Now there are reports that late Summer China won a battle with Indian troops in the Himalayas using a microwave-style device that causes a painful burning sensation under your skin as your water molecules heat up.  Reportedly many Indian soldiers became nauseous from the radiation. 

The US has such a weapon as well, shipped it to Afghanistan, but it's use there was never confirmed.  No doubt this will become a crowd control weapon down the road.  Sounds like the kind of nasty thing Trump would have wheeled out.

Along the Indian/China border, there's a half century old agreement not to use guns and munitions.  So this summer troops from the two countries clashed in a massive brawl using rocks and sticks.  20 Indian soldiers died, and China didn't disclose how many were killed on their side.  Apparently up to 900 soldiers were involved.  Pretty huge and nasty fight to kill a few dozen soldiers largely barehanded or with natural weapons at hand.  Crazy.
Also crazy, how it went from a fist/rock fight brawl to a high-tech microwave attack a couple weeks later.

Did Trump nix the FBI HQ relocation plan to benefit his hotel business interest?

Quote
Murphy took the reins of GSA in late 2017 and soon found herself entangled in a congressional battle over the future of the FBI’s crumbling headquarters in downtown Washington. Trump scrapped a decade-old plan to raze the building and move the agency outside the capital.

Some House Democrats believed that Trump, who operates a hotel on federally leased property nearby, was worried about competition moving into the FBI site should it be torn down and that he nixed the plan out of personal interest. Murphy seemed to give a less than precise answer to a lawmaker who asked about conversations with Trump and his team about the FBI headquarters.

I knew that one...mrs bambu had to sit at her desk and train them to take over her job..."cheap labour" or something...when the company outsourced the dept to there.
Large multinational was only interested in the bottom line.
Another life lesson learnt by team bambu.
