Driving the ribbons of highway in Oklahoma, Texas, and even California I have been glad I like country music. Near Apple Valley one day his show was on four of the five stations I could get.

I think Senator McConnell MAY have planned his excuse on January 9th when he wrote this in a letter to GOP Senators, "If the House votes to follow through with articles of impeachment against the president before Jan. 19 -- the day before Biden's inauguration -- the Senate will receive a message indicating that the House impeached the president while the Senate is in recess." All 100 senators would have to agree to conduct "any business of any kind" during the two pro-forma sessions to begin assessing articles of impeachment before the next regular session on Jan. 19, the letter states. He also wrote, ""Assuming such unanimous consent is not given, the following would take place under the Senate Impeachment Rules when the Senate resumes regular session on January 19," McConnell wrote. Therefore he knew the hearings could NOT take place before Mr. Trump was no longer President. IF so he was cunningly dishonest.

Did you hear Senator McConnell's statement? (posted above)

Feb 11, 2021 President Biden announced the administration had secured 200 million additional doses from Pfizer and Moderna to combat the coronavirus pandemic. This will be enough supply for 300 million Americans by the end of July.

I will wait to find out how this goes. And hope it goes well with vaccinations and such.

I'm not ready to have a discussion about President Biden today. Maybe a fellow nurse will want to discuss one of these issues and plans: https://www.whitehouse.gov/briefing-room/

I don't know his biography. I do remember he was a young teen when his father was murdered after winning the Democratic primary. His cousin, Bob Shriver, is the same age. I've seen him when we both surfed and we smiled at each other a few times as he lives a few miles north of our home. I do NOT agree with his belief that vaccines cause autism. I wish he and MANY others could know truth from falsehood.

I do not remember Robert F. Kennedy Jr. running for office. He has neither been elected, nor appointed to political office.

Did I just hear one of former President Trump's lawyers say the House Managers waited too long to file Articles of Impeachment, AND they Rushed to impeach too soon? This young member of Congress was impressive to me. He seems to remember who sat in each seat throughout history. Rep. Joe Neguse, D-Colo., one of nine House impeachment managers prosecuting the case against former President Donald Trump, spoke Tuesday in a hearing about the constitutionality of holding an impeachment trial against a former president. Many Republicans have argued that the trial should not go forward because Trump is no longer in office, an argument that is a key piece of Trump's defense, but Democrats are arguing to proceed. Neguse noted precedents set by past impeachments, such as that of former War Secretary William Belknap, former Sen. William Blount, then-sitting Judge Robert Archbald and former District Judge George English. He argued that when the founding fathers wrote the Constitution they did not exclude public officials after they left office.
