"We will be back in some form." In handcuffs?
Open Thread II: Until he is found guilty and thrown in jail, I'd be happy if this was the last time Trump is ever mentioned in the media.   I guess many of us are going to be following along with the TV today.  You can put your observations here.

DL Open Thread 1/18/21: Biden’s Looming War on Republican Mendacity and Stupidity & Happy MLK Day

The Delaware Senate Republicans who refused to congratulate Biden and Harris are awful, but the statement on why they voted against a simple bit of civility and decency is appalling beyond measure.  It has the hallmarks of being written by the very appallingly smarmy creep, Anthony Delcollo.   It is meant to signal that Democrats interested in governing and proper order will find only hatred and bitterness if they expect to work with Republicans.  I think we have to the votes, and I hope we have the political will  to utterly ignore these fucking assholes.   They are sorely in need of being judged by the content of thier character.
