...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 !)

      There are so many variables. Good chefs can having bad nights, post-Brexit staff shortages, your dish might be brilliant, your friend might order something that's inedible. In the end I think the best option is just to go to the restaurant which has the best overall reviews. If all the reviews are bad then avoid, but even if all the reviews are good that's not a cast iron gaurantee.

      The trouble is that pub management and chefs are constantly changing, so what might be fantastic on one occasion  becomes terrible a short time later, and vice versa. Two of the worst pub lunches I've had locally were at the Dog in the village and the Plough, but both those were some time ago. We had an absolutely appalling Christmas lunch on Christmas Day at The Cherry Tree, which was also exorbitantly expensive, so unless their chef (I use the term loosely) has changed, I wouldn't advise eating there. The menu looked amazing. We thought we would treat ourselves. Never again 😭

      If you've seen the original longer post then you'll know that you've taken that out of context. I don't charge but didn't feel I even needed to say that – you've made it sound like I do charge and that's why I deleted this part of the post saying I don't charge. When I read back what I'd written it sounded like I was defending myself against criticisms that hadn't even been made so i cut it out. And now you've made that kind of criticism anyway I should've left it in.  What do you mean "not charging people to read your reviews of their local restaurants."?  You make it sound like i'm sneaking into SE22 from somewhere else. I live here - they are reviews of my local restaurants!
