POTUS has nothing else on sched today but is nonetheless late to Arlington National Cemetery to honor veterans on Veterans Day, keeping decorated veterans, their families, and others waiting in the rain, not understanding the significance of the day, hour, minute of commemoration Image
Stayed for a total of 6 minutes.
And yes this was the split screen.

Guess which ceremony commenced on time? Image

My dad is cooking dinner for a lady friend tonight (I know — ooooooooooooo)

My mother was a self-taught chef. So this whole “cooking” thing is new to him. But I introduced him to the simple-yet-fancy, easy-to-follow recipes of @inagarten, and he’s giving it a go.

So far...
...He’s learned to make a beet & orange salad, like a champ! He asks hilarious questions. Thank god for FaceTime. Explaining zesting is hard.

Btw he has ordered like all 12 Ina Garten cookbooks, because dad

Today he’s trying to do her famous filet Mignon with mushrooms/mustard
Today’s FaceTime questions so far:

- Which skillet to use? Skillet runway show, hilarious
- is this the right mushroom?
- which pan goes in the oven?
- how do I turn the oven on?
- are you sure it’s on?
- how do I turn it off?
- do the shallots have to go in the fridge?

The party that Newt built has no leadership. It is captive to the whims of whichever mob is loudest — an energy cultivated and stoked by right wing media and ideologue billionaires. No one has been in charge for years.

This is why they almost all play along with this madness.
Perhaps the defining moment of the end of the Republican caucus was when Boehner was like “screw this, I’m outta here, y’all have fun with these Freedom caucus yay-hoos, I’m gonna go swill wine and invest in cannabis” and no one — literally no one — wanted his job. No one.
It’s like being the bus driver of a school bus with no steering wheel or brakes: you’re responsible for the safety of the people in the bus, but you’re not in control of it at all, you can just beg them to sit down and tell them to stop throwing boogers at you & each other

The Hallmark Channel has already started nonstop cheesy Christmas romance movies. Just saying.

And yes, I have it on, because my dad watches them, and calls to ask if I am watching. He loves them.
Guys, the small-town bakery convinced the ivy-league consulting-world corporate suit not to automate the factory, love ensued

Next: single teacher mom battling insurance co/crushing medical debt from death of beloved father, finds love

The Hallmark channel is the Marvel we need
The vulture medical debt industry was vanquished by scrappy upstarts and love and Christmas!

Next up: something with a veterinarian. There will be many cute animals, no doubt.

WARNING: Trumpworld — incl
stars Bannon, Flynn’s lawyer, Papadapoulos, Bin Laden’s daughter — are alleging a secret NSA program designed by Obama has been used to “switch 3% of votes”

None of this is real, nor does it make sense. They want Barr/“military intel” to investigate
Of course they are connecting it to the “Russia hoax” and the “Biden laptop from hell” because these f***ing people are the absolute g*****n worst

There is no coup. There is no electronic coup. These people will push an unstable POTUS to do something dangerous in coming weeks.
And hey, let’s make sure we understand this is an attack on the whole system, as they allege Democrats, Republican state legislatures, the intelligence community are all in on the plot/turning a blind eye to the “coup”

No. No no no.

Republicans need to call this sh*t out now.

Don Jr thinks the Black Sea is a country 👍 and also that foreign countries vote in American elections — which explains a lot
He also thinks the Caspian is a country and Armenia is water

Sorry, Armenian voters. You sank.
I guess this piece of Ukraine seceded?

Russian hackers have laid the groundwork for significant disruptions after the US election, including targeting US hospitals and healthcare systems.

“We expect panic,” they say.

Are we better prepared than 2016? Maybe.
