Everybody really knows what to do to have his or her life filled with joy. What is it?

Quit hating people; start loving them. Quit being mad at people; start liking them.
Quit doing wrong; quit being filled with fear. Quit thinking about yourself
and go out and do something for other people. Everybody knows what
you have to do to be happy. But the wisdom of the test lies in the final words:
"If ye know these things, happy are ye if ye do them."

Ms. Hutchinson is going to be put through a lot. The other side will do all they can to dis-credit her. That alone says you ( those on the rt. ) have a case with little or no merit. If rational truth was on your side you would not have to dis-credit anyone. Just the reason I'd believe someone, under oath, who didnn't make up a phony direct conversation as such and explained throughly and quietly what she witnessed and heard.

Boy howdy, you can sure say that again.

There were two opportunities to end trumps political career - his 2nd impeachment trial, but Moscow Mitch backed out of supporting impeachment (and rallying the republicans) and the cabinet invoking the 25th amendment on 1/6, but didn’t. No one brave enough on the GOP side to do the thing, except those who voted for impeachment.

Almost nice to see the week-end coming for the fact we will watch a bit less news. Such big issues and seems the SC is set on helping the Reps. all they can to upset things as much as possible. Shame on them.

I almost feel it is in part a reaction to taking on a new justice who might have a very THOUGHTFUL way of looking at things. A voice of reason among the 6 who are trying to shove their whole idealism in big swoops on us. We so need to keep the House and expand ( just by two but I'd be glad for a couple more even ) the Senate. Have to keep Manchin and Sinima out of the way. Manchin has said he'd be for Roe, but not the change of filibuster. Well, then how much is he for Roe since he is un-willing to make his voice surer.

Seems to me that there are a lot of irate women and while it is Roe right now that they are most irate about, I do think they will look askance at anything the Reps. do now. I guess the Reps. think they have done enough to nullify those who will be against them. Remains to be seen -- especially if they keep going so opposite of so much of the U.S. It could be close, but I do pray we will prevail to the extent we can change things for the better. I also think there is a lot of push back going on due to a lot of the impact of the 1/ committee and the items it has shared.

In the history of time few have managed to get away totally clean when they are doing dirty, underhanded and very illegal things. The Loon likely gave them a bit more confidence since he has managed, most of his life ( with great impunity ) to get away with so much. Well, I don't feel a bit sorry for those getting the spotlight for their evil ways. I hope that light just gets stronger and stronger.

Another look at our FREEDOMS. The court should be cautious, eh !

Cardplayer, that is definitely one to share. I am so disgusted by our court for the most part. A relief to see Justice Jackson since I think her intelect and how well she uses it could put many of the others to shame. That would be if they might still have some capacity to feel shame. I hope they do despite the fact that they are not even close to showing it at the moment.

Three decent justices and what do you know -- they're all women. As far as Barrett, it is true she is a woman, but so far gone I can't recognize her as such. She is an escapee frorm the dark ages.

Also, I hope more Democratic ladies will run for some of the local and state offices. It is how the Reps. worked around us in some cases and it would be nice if we had a strong representation going on at the lower levels as well.

I'm dropping some material in here to read if you like. I found it fasniting, but most enjoyed hearing that Ms. Hutchinson has now been backed up for the clains she made. The Loon's folks likely don't know it, but emough people do to continue to make a difference for us. I'm sure ( as was mentioned ) that the Loon likely has some real worries now. Credible stories backed up by 'several' people who were there. There are likely not enough lies now to overcome that much truth -- which indeed is the whole point.

As much as I know that when all of this is done Liz Cheney will go back to a critique of Democratic colleagues which will often not be at all flattering, I still have to take my hat off to her. She ( such a good thing for us that she chose to be vice chair of the committee ), and Kinzinger are Reps. and know how Reps. think. Meaning that they know what to look for and will not be put off by the somewhat constant lies and big mis-representations that come frorm the other side. They ( Cheney and Kinzinger ) just keep marching forward un-fazed.

We haven't heard much about magazine covers since the Loon left for MiraLago.
