...and the Worst I heard, repeatedly from Republicans, was ?you?re making this into a political issue and you?re going to divide the country !?.

I?ve read there?s 20 Republicans saying they are prepared to vote to convict. I hope many more will join them, to make a solid public statement that this should never repeat (ignoring their blatant hypocrisy, obvs) and to rid Trump from their leadership once and for all.

Hopefully it will come out in the wash how deep the attack on the 6th went. From what I've read there were multiple 'tours' of the building given to outsiders the day before, by GOP representatives. If that's the case and they were reconnaissance missions, those reps should end up behind bars.

If that is so, it was obviously pre-planned so the charges against Trump would be wrong.


By the way, I see the ?stolen? lectern was ?found? and used by Nancy yesterday.

She's going to fine members who disregard security measures and she'll take it straight from their salaries. So she's back and she's on fire.

There are some things coming out from the FBI investigation that at the very least suggest premeditated plans from the more military minded Trump fanatics. But that does not get Trump off the hook. He has been ramping this up ever since that first mention of electoral fraud, which it has to be pointed out, began BEFORE the election day itself. Right from the off, Trump was attacking postal ballots as a legitimate form of voting.


If enough Republicans vote to impeach in the Senate, it will be as much about reclaiming their party as it is from stopping Trump ever running again. The threats have already started against those brave enough to do it - from the very same Trump fanatics that are exonerating Trump from an culpability. What a mess of a party.

That is of course a possibility DR



And yes Blah Blah, it is a mess. It didn?t help of course that some states were changing the rules during the election for when postal ballots could be received but that might have been justified with Covid.

Accidently came upon a QAnon thread on twitter yesterday


They think that brooch that Nancy Pelosi wears signifies she's the leader of the deep state. She didn't wear it earlier this week and they suggested she's been toppled.

The Q Anon rabbit hole is a joy to behold. There is a branch that believe that Trump will command the army to stop the inauguration too and that everything so far is all just part of the plan. They are heavily into symbols just like every cult though. Everything is a sign of something.

He?s refusing to pay Giuliani?s fees for the last 2mths.

($20k per day x 60 days = $1.2m)

There will be no DoJ or White House legal team to hide behind in this 2nd impeachment.

He?s having a hard time finding a legal team to represent him.

I commend Sidney Powell as his attorney, she?ll do a great job defending him (yes I?m being vindictive !)

      GALA 2025

      By fishboy · Posted

      That's odd, one of the claimed benefits of the Gala money is - "The site hire fee goes directly to supporting the delivery of the council’s Events service, which supports the delivery of up to 100 free-to-attend community events per year" I've asked for a list of these events, as without this I feel it can't realistically be used to justify the disruption. Can anyone name even 10 of these events? 5?

      Unusual white/grey cat in my garden

      There’s an unusual cat in my garden that appears a bit lost and hungry. White and fluffy with grey parts and blue eyes. Seems like a house cat. I’m behind Goose Green off Ondine.

      GALA 2025

      By malumbu · Posted

      As far as I am aware you have shown no interest in the Gala thread but anything you find to knock a local authority, and no doubt hope that it applies to Southwark LTNs, then off you go. I'd love to hear what you enjoy.  I've been to multiple festivals big and small, in life.  The line up at the Lambeth Show looks good.  Steamdown anyone? It's a balance between many factors, amenity Vs loss of amenity, disruption including noise during the event, damage to the park, income to the local authority during difficult times.  What is your view on these matters, or is it just a case that you smell meat? I cycled in the Massif Central when there was a big creative festival and that smelled of BBQ meat.  Similarly a Portuguese festival at Kensington Park. There are some people round my way who used to complain about the music at the Horniman on a summer Sunday afternoon.  This is not comparable to the disruption due to the Gala, I hasten to add.  But I was stunned at the time thinking how could they have issues with some soul/jazz/afro beat/samba/Latino etc  Shane they don't have the same number of free events any more.  I digress....

      But I think there are striking similarities between the way Lambeth has managed the Brockwell events and residents therein and the way Southwark has with Gala..... It's how it pastes when you take text from another website (BBC) and is a good way to show that these are someone else's words and not something written by the author!
