Sounds good, Sandy.

Yesterday at the Lincoln Memorial.

I think they might have refitted the place subsequent to that date, David.😀

Would they have tiled a raised platform?

Sandy that doesn't explain what appears to be a permanent "tiled" area to the right of the photo.

The thing to worry about is what are Trump and Mitch Magoo going to do during the two months after Trump is booted out of office. This disgraceful pair along with all the supine, invertebrate Republicans in the senate can do an awful lot of damage during the hiatus, following the election in November. Don't understand why, as in the U.K. when a Prime Minister goes, he or she is immediately replaced by the successor, it doesn't happen in the U.S.

What about Comey. The guy has a lot to answer for.

Make that screwed on that two, James.

By gum.

If Lance is such a good lawyer, let's see his reply to Jim's statements. I won't hold my breath.

He might if he knew the car was going to be stopped, Tony.

Thanks Sandy. Works a treat.

Could be an empty coffin was the reason that so much force was used to ensure that it was removed from Parkland against the wishes of the Coroner, rather than let an autopsy take place in Dallas.

Trump's ex-ethics director: The president is in the late stages of an 'authoritarian coup'When Donald Trump was running for president in 2016, he vowed to “drain the swamp” if elected — which was his way of promising to clean up the political environment in Washington, D.C. and make the federal government more accountable. But former ethics official Walter Shaub, in an op-ed for USA Today, argues that Trump’s presidency has been a nonstop attack on accountability.Shaub served as director of the U.S. Office of Government Ethics from 2013-2017. He resigned in the middle of Trump’s first year in office in protest of the White House’s complete disregard for ethics rules. And in his new op-ed, Shaub details some of the many ways in which accountability has been under attack during Trump’s presidency — from his “assault on inspectors general” to “open presidential profiteering” to the firing of officials who stood up to him, including former FBI Director James Comey and former Attorney General Jeff Sessions.“The Sessions firing should have triggered Trump’s removal from office,” Shaub asserts, “but wild-eyed senators were hot on the trail of confirming conservative judges.”As president, Shaub notes, Trump didn’t receive any real “oversight” from Congress until Democrats achieved a majority in the U.S. House of Representatives thanks to the 2018 midterms. However, Shaub quickly adds, “Trump’s hold on the Senate was absolute” — and so, he was acquitted by the GOP-controlled Senate on two articles of impeachment after being indicted by the House.To make matters worse, Shaub adds, Trump has been declaring war on the “inspector general community,” which Shaub describes as “a last line of defense in this war on ethics and law.”Accountability, according to Shaub, can come during the November election — when U.S. voters will have a chance to vote Trump out of office. But Shaub fears that Republican dirty tricks and other factors could help Trump win reelection seven months from now.“The obstacles are tremendous,” Shaub warns. “Trump has the advantages of incumbency, decades of Republican voter suppression, and a third branch that increasingly seems political. A sign of things to come, the Supreme Court ramped up the voter suppression by sending Wisconsin voters into a war zone in our species’ fight against an ancient enemy: disease. A global pandemic has ground America to a halt, complicating the upcoming presidential election.”He concluded:All is not lost. The American people are fired up. But it’ll be hard and the outcome’s uncertain. That’s why we must understand how big a deal it is that Trump is going after inspectors general. This is a late-stage move in an authoritarian coup against the rule of law.https://www.rawstory.com/2020/04/trumps-ex-ethics-director-the-president-is-in-the-late-stage-of-an-authoritarian-coup/ Copied from another forum.

Like his hero, Putin, Orangatrump is getting all his place men in position for an authoritarian takeover. When his idiot supporters realise (and they will however belatedly) that they have been hoodwinked, by probably the world's greatest con man, then he will suddenly take complete control and the putsch will have been successful. Mike Pence and his fellow Cabinet members should enact the 25th Amendment, as he is clearly of unsound mind. "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, transmit to the President pro tempore of the Senate and the Speaker of the House of Representatives their written declaration that the President is unable to discharge the powers and duties of his office, the Vice President shall immediately assume the powers and duties of the office as Acting President."

Hilarious. "When asked about the US's coronavirus testing capabilities by a journalist at a White House press briefing, Donald Trump deflected by asking the reporter about the South Korean capital city Seoul's population. "I know South Korea better than anybody," Trump said. "It's a very tight - do you know how many people are in Seoul? Do you know how big the city of Seoul is? 38 million people. That's bigger than anything we have." Seoul actually only has a population of 10m." However the Wikipedia page on Seoul gives the height above sea level of 38m. Seems the "exceptional brain" gets his information from Wiki. And even then misreads it.

Imagine a sniper saying yes, I will fire through a window, after which the bullet will pass through another window, and then onto the target. He would be laughed out of the room.There too many variables to ensure that the limo would be in exactly the correct position. Afraid this dog don't hunt. IMO.

Wouldn’t it be ironic if Trump was brought downBy a virus from China , named after a Mexican beer? We can only hope.

Trump is blaming the Dems for causing the virus because the word pandemic, is just "panic" with "dem" inside. And finally theWorld Health Organization has just declared that since canines areunable to spread the Coronavirus, they no longer need to bequarantined.So now we know, “W.H.O. Let The Dogs Out.”

Rather apt considering it was the W.C. Report.Down the W.C. is the best place for it.

From HITLER: DOWN FALL 1939-45 by Volker Ullrich ‘Hitler will remain a cautionary example for all time,’ he writes. ‘If his life and career teach us anything, it is how quickly democracy can be prised from its hinges when political institutions fail and civilising forces in society are too weak to combat the lure of authoritarianism. ‘How thin the mantle separating civilisation and barbarism actually is; and what human beings are capable of when the rule of law and ethical norms are suspended and some people are granted unlimited power over the lives of others.’ Perhaps somebody should send this to Moscow Mitch and his invertebrate colleagues.

Posted for Robert's sake. Would hate him to miss it.

Jim, the collar wings on the lower jacket look a lot smaller than those on the jacket worn by Os.
