Gentlewomen, start your engines

Pelosi: Impeachment is 'divisive,' but colleague's coarse language is no worse than Trump's
In an MSNBC town hall, the newly elected House speaker said she has a "generational reaction" to the profane language a fellow Democrat used to describe the president.


Trump has absolutely no idea what’s coming. He understands that DC is about to change, but he’s never experienced — and he’s vastly  unprepared for — real oversight.

Welcome, Madam Speaker. - Angry WH Staffer tweet


I'm not crying, you're crying!

Hi Lisa,

How in the world do you do it? It would take me a week to find what you post daily.

Keep up the great work. I need it more than ever for my sanity.

Do you believe there is a pee tape? Haven't seen much on your site about it.

Rudi (not Giuliani)


Thank you Rudi (not Giuliani)!

Twitter is where I find most of the material. It is a great tool for breaking news from the newsmakers to the movers and the shakers. It all depends on who you follow. The rest is done by Googling a lot PLUS I am sick and tired of Republicans ruining this country.

The pee tape? Well, the Steele dossier has been right so far...but, deep in my heart, I hope it isn't true because the world has suffered enough.

Take care,
Lisa
