Darling, don't bold and mad smiley at us, we can't do it. Bold and mad smiley at Pence and the Cabinet (not referring to the 1960's beach band of similar name, Pence and the Cabinettes, whose single notable song "Bikini Beach Girl (Oh Yeah, Yeah)" was later covered to much greater success by Little Richard).

My partner is part of a community watch, blue lives support Facebook group. To no surprise, the majority of fools on there support the MAGA terrorists in the Capitol and are shouting down anyone supporting LE in the Capitol on this day.

More evidence that the Blue Lives Matter group has little to do with supporting police.

What you are blind to are consequences down the road.

Someone that thinks events that happened this day do not matter and aren't yet another cut weakening american democracy (or whatever pass for it in USA) is a fool.

I was around during the Vietnam protests. This is nothing, certainly not a revolution or coup.

This is being discussed on CNN. That this is unprecedented. (When Jake Tapper read, "Police report, 'The Capitol is now secure,'" Tapper said he felt like he was reading a dispatch from Bogota.) That trump has taken no role in restoring order today, that he is not acting as a sitting president. A Republican businesswoman told CNN she thought trump should be removed and removed this evening. That events have just gone too far. Way too far.

Maybe it should be attempted anyway. The Republicans have been complicit in taking us where we are. After today's events, it might be good to have some of them on the record standing against a second impeachment.

No, he has two Twitter accounts. You're looking at his official government VP one, there is also his personal one (which has 6 million followers and is linked to Trump's, so looks legit to me), which has the photo of the back of a white-haired man holding hands with a woman.

Unfollowed momentarily, new banner page installed, re-followed shortly after.

If I understand Twitter mechanics, that would be so Diaper Don would not be advised via Twitter that Mikey's banner image had been changed, thus incurring Toupee Fiasco's wrath. Would that be correct, twitterati?

He's doing it, we can't stop him, no point in complaining about it. 6. We all knew he was going to do it which... makes it okay somehow. 7. It's perfectly fine that's he's doing it.

Judging by the number of red hats in the audience of that photo, I'd say you are right. Here's the pic, by the way: https://twitter.com/Mike_Pence/header_photo

The lighting is poor, and the view is from the rear. If we could see the front, he may have a whole business of flies on his head.

He or his staff are obviously trying to figure out what look to go for. No, he has two Twitter accounts. You're looking at his official government VP one, there is also his personal one (which has 6 million followers and is linked to Trump's, so looks legit to me), which has the photo of the back of a white-haired man holding hands with a woman.
