A Kingdom

He can do anything he wants, as long as the justices he installs says he can.

It's too bad Joe Biden is an honorable man. Right now, he could order the assassination of the Lying Liar for fomenting an insurrection,  pardon the killers, and no one could say him nay.

I dissent.

I had my annual check up today.  My blood pressure was 160 over 80, 150 over 80 after an enjoyable conversation with my doctor. Was I exercising?  Was I overindulging in evil foods?  No,  I caught 10 minutes of Nicolle Wallace before I drove over to her office and yes, I could feel my blood pressure going up.

Her advice?  Don't watch the news before a blood pressure check...... and keep track of the numbers for the next few days to help her help me feel better.  

So, for my mental health, I am not going to think about this any more.

The End (for a while, at least)

It's despair that I'm feeling.  It's not a place I like to go.  I've reverted to November, 2019, right after the election, when I could not listen to the news.  I've asked TBG to change the channel, and until he finds something else to watch my innards are in turmoil.  

I cannot do this to myself.

If all this does is confirm that Joe is an old man then I'd say no harm, no foul.  And then I would add this:

When your wife is in the hospital, dying of sepsis, after being denied basic medical care, you're not going to care that Joe Biden is old.

Anyone who believes that a convicted felon should be president cannot be influenced.  The rest of us should focus on policy and implementation and those pesky down ballot races. That's where I'm going to start with Mr. 21.  

It's time to start studying Project 2025 and scaring the shit out of those young non-voters who have absolutely no idea what is in store for them.  

And I can do all that without watching or reading the news.... saving my sanity and democracy one day at a time..
