ABCnews:
In blow to Trump, golf’s PGA strips major championship from Trump-owned course
The 2022 PGA Championship will no longer be held at Trump Bedminster.
law not there nor the order. this story portends quite a court trial of reckoning
wapo:
also in wapo, a story of the loss of another officer:
and another wapo story this morning of what happened in re police:
Joe poses a great question- does the new Congress need to pass a law confirming different law enforcement standards for white, blacks, people from the Middle East who wear Muslim garb, Muslims, people on the left, people on the right…? After all, that’s what we have now.
I want to emphasize a portion of one of the WaPo quotes patd posted above.
Piatt should be discharged and court martialed for dereliction of duty and violation of his oath.
Arnold gets an A+…🇺🇸
really gotta wonder if MAGA is a spent force
kinda significant Arnold talked so much about his father, something he always avoided
Craig
No just a name change at best. They have always been there. They will probably always be there. All MAGA gave them was a slogan and a spokesperson. Those two items have never been in short supply.

I always liked Arnold. Forty years ago he was a charming flirt as the world learned with his various sexual infractions, but even when his fingers were tickling up my wrist when I waited on him, he was always a brilliant and fun conversationalist.

The PGA of America voted to move the 2022 PGA Championship from Trump National Golf Club in New Jersey, Axios Sports reports.
So is today the day Dumbass becomes the first president in US history to be impeached twice?

People like Donald and Cruz and Hawley and Brooks and McCarthy have no shame or decency or dignity. It is pointless to call on them to resign and they shouldn’t have the option. Impeach/convict, censure/expel. We cannot blow this—everything is at stake.
pogo, just heard news report the plan is vote on wednesday. i assume that means not enough reps are back in House yet so it’s only in the hopper today, rules processing/bypass committee tomorrow and then on to the floor.
Talk show hosts told to stop saying the election was stolen
Amen. Free speech doesn’t include killing cops.
pogo, now they’re saying that today imp. articles to be introduced and a resolution to get pence to invoke 25th, tomorrow resolution will be voted on and wednesday impeachment vote.
BiD & jamie,
the hill:
Law enforcement officials have opened at least 25 domestic terrorism cases following the riot that broke out at the U.S. Capitol building last week amid pro-Trump demonstrations in Washington, D.C.
Rep. Jason Crow (D-Colo.) confirmed on Twitter on Sunday that Secretary of the Army Ryan McCarthy said during a call that “at least 25 domestic terrorism cases have been opened as a result of the assault on the Capitol,” according to Crow’s notes from the conversation.

I covered his CA governor race and relentlessly asked him about his father at press conferences. He would just menacingly glare at me, saying nothing. Finally hearing the full story in this video I feel kinda bad for bugging him about it.

“Both DeVos and McConnell’s wife were asked to leave to hamper the application of the 25th-no majority of the Cabinet, since it is believed by the Administration that “Actings” can’t vote.” Sent by a friend.
So Nancy is applying pressure. Good.
Wow… both those videos were very powerful.
I think the capital of every state had better be prepared for the MAGA crowd on the 20th. I belong to a FB group of locals that believe in science and reason. One of them joined Parler just to see what was being said. She took screen shots. OMG… those people are absolutely crazy!
I just turned on a local sports talk radio show… and the topic is that trumpty dumpty is giving the Medal of Freedom to Patriots coach Bill Belichick. WTF! The pandemic is raging around us and SFB is busy giving sports figures medals. I love my Patriots… but if Bill accepts that medal… he’s a fucking asshole!
sorry…. had to get it off my chest…
RR, you wouldn’t be the first to claim Bill is an asshole.
Merci, Poobah! Glad to get that straightened out.
One thing about them to know….they WILL double down.
Sturg, there aren’t any rules I’m aware of regarding the majority vote of the cabinet on a proposed 25th removal. I’d say that if a quorum exists at the meeting to discuss it (which could be by conference call, Zoom or whatever) a majority of those voting would satisfy the requirement of a majority of the cabinet. And I don’t think the assumption that acting cabinet members wouldn’t be able to vote – I believe the only restriction on acting cabinet officials is that they can only serve a year. (Of course in reality I don’t know shit, so all of this could be wrong).
For the first time ever, MLK Day is now a paid holiday at my company, and will remain so. I can only assume this in response to last week since it was just announced today.

Welcome to the I Don’t Know Shit club. I just consider it an addition to my membership in the “I Can’t Remember Shit” organization. lol
I was under the assumption that, in case of national distress and the inability to be present, those who showed up would be enough to do the job.
Let the Republicans try to hide from their responsibility. No way to hide. You are against tRUMPsky or you are against the democracy of the USA. Choose!
Jamie, glad to be in the club. It’s large, distinguished and growing. I happen to be in both the DKS and CRS divisions of the club.
The Constitution doesn’t define what posts are in the “cabinet”, but does expressly state that “cabinet” members are “Senate-confirmed”. “Acting” secretaries don’t fit that description
SCOTUS tells Dumbass to pack up.
Got that Donnie? Justice delayed, wait, wrong quote…no means no.
Why is this an “internal” memo leaked to media? Should be a public press release!
Art. XXV, Sect. 25. “Whenever the Vice President and a majority of either the principal officers of the executive departments or of such other body as Congress may by law provide…” “Cabinet” is not a term used in the 25th Amendment. Confirmed or not, acting secretaries are principal officers of their respective executive departments.
Can’t imagine that something bad won’t happen between now and the 20th. Mix delusions, anger, frustration and guns together and what could go wrong?
BTW, I read the Dumbass Golf management comment on the PGA pulling the PGA Championship from teh Trump National at Bedminster facility and laughed my ass off.
Don’t want to borrow trouble but is Secret Service prepared to stop a mob like Jan. 6 when Biden moves into the White House?
whatever the interpretation, i’ll assert successful invoking of the 25th is highly unlikely, after a very cursory examination of who those principal officers are, confirmed or otherwise (a bunch of trump loyalists ofc)
…ain’t gonna happen
An unstable government in charge of the world’s largest nuclear arsenal makes us a justifiable target of invasion by a foreign power
This is the way it’s discussed down home.
Up to 15,000 national guard to be deployed during inauguration
From WaPo (In the “shit flows downhill” category):
Mother’s tits starting to dry up.
Today talked to a retired Secret Service official I interviewed many times years ago when he was in service, asked if they could handle a 30k mob assaulting White House when Biden moves in, he said “If they arent panicking about that they’re not doing their job”
Back in the day I asked him if they ever worried about an agent killing the president or abetting an assassin, thinking he’d bust my chops for asking, but he said “Yes always”, then described their protocols for dealing with it, regular psychological evaluations, time off, stress analysis, background checks, monitoring their communications, political views, who they associate with etc.
Pogo – heard on the radio that the British Open has been pulled from the golf course there too. As bad as the brand was losing a couple of years ago it is now down to just a pillow selling guy.
Craig
I’ve often considered the possibility of a ss assination. I wouldn’t put it past one of these MAGAt types willing to be killed to do it. Biden has requested the return of the agents who used to protect his family so you know the idea has occurred to him as well.
Ya know… now that It has been proven that Colin Kaepernick actually had a point with his kneeling for our National Anthem… doesn’t it make sense that it’s been proven that Hillary actually had a point when she said some of trump’s supporters were deplorable.
Sting operations to get the domestic terrorists to show up at staging area and just bust them all there and then. Can’t get them all, but would take the numbers down. All of these idiots should just be locked away if they are willing to destroy democracy for that orange liar. Idiots!
Sturg – That guy is a comedian (the liberal redneck), but this time it’s not funny. I hope this goes viral so folks know that not every white person in the south is cracker.
Making memes again.
They are arrogant and doing it out in the open. It should make them easier to corral.
…not saying i disagree, BiD, but there aren’t enough jails, cops, troops, or forensic analysts to do all the things you think “should” happen
By the way, observe that we’ve had a over a billion monkeys typing on smartphones, for years, still no “Collected Works of Shakespeare”
Bink, I don’t see it as likely, either, but procedurally it could happen if Pence and half plus one decided it should.
The political world is erupting today. Huge donors turning their backs on the folks who they support, Cumulus Radio telling its hosts to shut up about election being stolen or face firing, GOP AGs group sent out Robocalls arguably organizing the mob (and now deny it – claim rogue staffers did it…), Supreme Court refuses to step in before inauguration, PGA says it won’t hold the PGA Championship at Bedminster, House intros Article of Impeachment, 7 day rolling average of Covid deaths has increased from 2644 to 3201 over the past week and new cases are very close to 250,000 per day (246,351). Some day, eh?
BB, yeah, I saw that the Brits said no Open for Trump. Dumbass that he is. So in one week the sponsors of half the majors in golf pulled their matches from him, and there were never any plans for the third that goes to different venues was going to one of his courses.
Utterly hysterically watching Fox News desperately protecting Trump, digging up noname legal “experts” saying he showed no intent to incite violence, blaming Pelosi for whatever and whataboutism re: Bill Clinton. Big Tech “censorship”. Total nonsense.
Just heard this on the WTOP sports report, reporter read it off the wire (so to speak), Tom Belicheck is not going to accept the tin medal from SFB. Something about a coup attempt he did not care for.
Stolen from Facebook. LOL!
BlueB… thanks for that news. His first name is Bill, BTW.
pogo… good luck to your crimson tide.
Somebody texted me that puppy pic, but I didn’t recognize the phone number and deleted it.

i respect you more for not knowing

Here’s more evidence for you and Fiona, patd:
https://www.thedailybeast.com/stop-the-steal-organizer-in-hiding-after-denying-blame-for-riot
“ For Jan. 6, Alexander claimed in a video, he had some organizing assistance from pro-Trump Reps. Paul Gosar (R-AZ), Andy Biggs (R-AZ), and Mo Brooks (R-AL).
‘We four schemed up putting maximum pressure on Congress while they were voting,’ Alexander said in a video posted before the Jan. 6 protest.’”
from same article:
archive that shit
https://www.cnn.com/2021/01/11/politics/chad-wolf-homeland-security/index.html
Chad Wolf is leaving, but not because of the attack by tRUMPsky’s mob. He’s a loyalist asshat.
Everyone who is not actively working to shut down tRUMPsky is actively working to destroy American democracy.
…”tacitly”
All sponsors should be very aware of the airtime they are buying. What about country radio? Thr tRUMPsky brand is worthless. Sweep the entire crime family into the dustbin of history, along with a growing number of members of Congress who seem to have been brainwashed.

No, I think they are actively part of the ongoing attempt to keep SFB in office and create a GD family dynasty.

Renee, thanks. Bama had a great 1st 1/2. 3rd quarter has been so-so. Defense better wake the fuck up or the next 21 minutes will be less enjoyable.
It was just an innocent game of hang man… Ted Cruz told Fox News that the insurrectionist mob’s repeated chants of “Hang Pence!” were “taken out of context by the radical left Democrat media.”
Corey someone texted me the antifa cartoon, and I forwarded it on to a few folks.
Why risk it? Biden should be inside and stay inside for his inauguration. In light of posts here today, Harris should be further away from him. Safety is safety!
Chad Wolf, newly retired homeland security jerk, lives here, of course. The “acting” jerk that is.
In WaPo today is an article about all the polices departments that should have been at the capitol. The sergeants-at-arms were key to that.
They said they were waiting for approval from further up. Seems it’s their job to protect those further up people without asking to do it. Makes no sense, of course. They just sat on their treasonous hands with their thumbs up their……
Renee, 🧻🌊🧻
ROLL TIDE ROLL.
bears repeating:
-from CC
It was a profound failure of foresight and response. Just another Dumbass administration fuckup. It’s what we’ve come to expect because it’s what we get time and time again.
For those of you who don’t know, Cruz is a pathetic excuse for a Harvard educated lawyer.
Bama snags another national championship. Dominating victory over OSU. Congratulations to Nick Saban (his 7th) and the boys.
How do you take a gibbet with noose and chants of “Hang Pence” from a mob of marauders out of context?
