Gary Markstein for January 10, 2021

How can you “see” something that is not there??

;-)

Pence won’t do it. To do so would, quite literally, put a bullseye on his chest. The crazed ones have already said they want to hang him for his “ treachery” for defying Trump on the Senate certification.

If he did ( he won’t) too little to late !

As if Pence hasn’t seen it before.

Ouch!

Shouldn’t he be flashing Mitch & Lindsay? ;-)

It’s just the way trump is.. humor him. Its worked so well in the past, hasn’t it? Surely insurrections and a runaway pandemic would have happened anyway even if the senate had stepped up and completed that little impeachment thing. Surely there are no republican senators thinking.. perhaps we shoulda.

Thank you, Mr. Markstein, almost spit out my coffee laughing on this one. Quite an image.

A pudgie? yipes!

Pence almost found a vertebra on Jan 6th. But he came back to his normal toady self. He’ll NEVER make that bold of a statement.

Pence hasn’t done squat.

When did Pence change his mind? Up to now it’s been reported that Pence does NOT want to invoke the 25th amendment.

Ain’t gonna happen.

might as well see that side we’ve seen him showing his ass for 4 years.

It seems as if most people associated with the president develop a conscience or, at least, reach their moral limit after a while and then resign.

OGG Gary I can’t stop LMAO !!!

Pence invoking the 25th? Without consulting the chinless turtle? Jesus! Stop it! You’re killing me. And as if the rest of the Republicans would go along with it any way. They only uphold the constitution when it suits them.

Reminds me of the joke where two cops spot an older guy flashing in a park. The say, “Don’t you think it’s time you retire ?” “No”, says the flasher, “I’m only 61 and I’ve got to hang it out another year before I can collect Social Security”. Often wondered what he did for a living.

If he hasn’t done it now, he never will. I guess being the target of a lynch mob isn’t enough for him.

I seem to recall that “enemies” is mentioned in the Constitution as “enemies foreign and domestic”.

I find myself wondering for that reason if the individuals who stole classified data during the attempted coup can be charged with espionage, too. Certainly, if domestic ISIS members had done this such charges would occur if at all possible, as well they should.

As to the elected officials involved:
