I sincerely hope all GOP & JA supporters tossed & turned all night long concerning the Mattis resignation. They should all be having nightmares about could be happening. NOW, they get concerned...too little too late IMHO. Kind of what happens when you don't have a spine & continue to ignore what's happening in the Oval Office for months on end.

Ruth Bader Ginsberg had planned procedure to remove two cancerous nodules in her lower lung. They were discovered when she was being treated for the rib fractures she suffered earlier this year. Docs are optimistic they got it all. She has had many potentially serious health issues through the years, and weathered them all. Fingers crossed!

XXXXXX'd here too. Heaven forbid something happens that gives JA another opportunity to appoint another SC justice. RBG is one tough lady & I think she will persevere & ride out it out till JA is gone. Hope she rests up & comes back in January full of vim & vigor. She really is an inspiration to so many.

Sending the warmest of wishes for RBG and fingers are definitely crossed here. We NEED you RBG! Speaking of her, I really want to see the new movie that is supposed to be coming out very soon about her. Does anybody know when it is supposed to start? Also want to see "Vice" about Dick Cheney that starts Christmas, although the two subjects could not possibly be more different from each other. RBG is someone to be admired.

Well if anyone had even a faint hope of McConnell growing a spine, those hopes have been dashed. It must be a medical miracle that he manages to stay upright when he walks. As for Paul Ryan, he's most likely dancing out the door as we speak.

Congressman Joe Kennedy III on Twitter, "The self-proclaimed party of âpatriotism & strengthâ is willing to shutdown the American government because theyâre scared of being tweeted at by a bully who gets his marching orders from the hosts of Fox & Friends."

There are many things I fear about having an unqualified lunatic in the WH. The thing I fear most, at this moment, is remembering when he said, "Why have nuclear weapons if you're not going to use them?"
There have been men in the WH I disagreed with. But I've never been afraid of them. I always felt safe and secure. I believed they trusted the people around them and always asked for advice and sought wise council. They knew they needed input and help from others even those who disagreed with them. They listened to others. Not to the voices in their own heads.
He's a monster and a thug that enjoys firing people. Especially people that are smarter and more qualified than him. Which is just about anybody else on the planet.
I'm also ashamed and disgusted with the wimps in Congress who bow down to him and turn their backs on the People they are suppose to serve.
Other than that I'm fine. Lol.

Like you, Pat, I think we're all truly scared of this JA and what he might do, and with good reason. He's shown us he is capable of anything.
It would be funny how he is now trying to push the shutdown off onto the Democrats when he publicly stated he would proudly own the shutdown if it happened, if it weren't just so typical of him. He is such a liar and a coward! But then bullies usually are cowards at heart. Although those who get their news from Fox will never hear it, I would like to see the rest of the media play back that recording in the Oval with Pelosi and Schummer over and over and over again. Don't let him get away with "alternative facts" this time.

A WARM WELCOME Mom to Casey, glad you could join us,the more the merrier. (or is it safety in numbers)
Joyce- So glad you made your move and you now have the grands near by, so good for the heart.
If T (I can't bring myself to say his name or refer to him as President) nominated Putin to take Mattis's place as Defense Secretary, I'm certain that the spineless Republicans would approve. And he recently lifted the sanctions from Deripaska. Is there anyone who doesn't believe that T is being handled directly by Vladimir? Heads must be exploding inside the CIA. What a nightmare. Will we ever wake up from it?

Best lines I heard all week.........
Forgot what show Friedman was on: "Trump drained the SWAMP, right into the oval office"..... Thomas Friedman.
AND
"I knew we needed to âdrain the swampâ of Washington; I just didnât think the drain would literally have to start in Trumpâs White House and the offices of his cabinet secretaries"....... Friedman again in the NYT

Pattybird- I'm with you kid, the nuclear weapons comment takes precedence over just about everything. IMHO. Love mushrooms....HATE MUSHROOM CLOUDS!

Okay, I have a new theory. Trump wants to force the shutdown to show his base he's "strong" and wants to stand firm about the wall. Then after the House is in control of the Democrats he can turn around and blame EVERYONE else for not being able to get anything done. He'll blame the people for voting in the Democratic House, and then blame all of the Democrats in Congress for not being able to get anything done. Conveniently he'll forget that the GOP had control of both houses for the first two years of his presidency.

Just a thought about the "FOX news watchers" that visit our thread.
Maybe our discussions and comments will make them think a little more about what they are accepting as fact from FOX?
One can only hope.......

Good theory and would be very true to form for DT.

One can only hope....... You're right, Anne, that one can hope but I'm not going to hold my breath while doing so. If only they would watch or read something else to go along with the Fox propaganda it would help. It's almost as if they're afraid to hear or read anything that might contradict what Fox has told them.
