QUINTANILLA: According to the filings, the president has been trading some Intel in the quarter
JIM CRAMER: Yeah, uh, yeah, hmm
FABER: Got nothing to say?
CRAMER: Uh, uh, yeah, whoa, yeah.
FABER: Don't worry. We're not having technical difficulties, but we gotta go

Definitive answer: It wasn’t.
I seem to have missed the Biblical prophecy regarding the establishment of the 1st Ballroom.
I think we need people across aisle to pause here to note our acting attorney general is going on network TV spreading falsehoods to please the President and in doing so undermining our election integrity. Not much worse to harm our democracy than this.

It’s a real shame that two US Catholic Bishops are speaking at this White Christian Nationalist event.
The blasphemy is just off the charts.
Lindsey Graham, January 6, 2021: "Trump and I... we've had a hell of a journey. I hate it to end this way. Oh my god, I hate it... but today, all I can say is 'Count me out. Enough is enough. I've tried to be helpful.'"
Watch the speech. This is what it means to have no principles, no self-respect. Sad and infuriating at the same time.

checking in for a brief moment on the Rededicate 250 blasphemy fest and yep, it's beyond parody
It has been six years. Every single "stolen election" theory — from 2,000 Mules to servers in Italy to Georgia suitcases — has been debunked, crushed in court, painstakingly explained, and none of these guys ever have the goods cause it's all nonsense to please POTUS. It's embarrassing for Bartiromo that she is still giving this airtime, and anyone who still falls for this chasing the next new reveal needs to get away from their computer.

FWIW, these bozos have been promising "evidence" for five and a half years. We know they aren't very sharp, but even the biggest clowns on the planet would have found something by now, if there was anything real.

WELKER: Your decision to reopen the Clinton email investigation 11 days before voters went to the polls in 2016 -- knowing what you know now, would you make the same decision?
COMEY: I think so
WELKER: Do you think your decision played a role in the election of Trump?
COMEY: I hope not. My goal that year was to stay out of politics. I'd have to do the same thing again.

Holding someone accountable is not trying to destroy them. This is how Trump gets away with nearly everything. He’s always the victim, never simply facing natural consequences for his actions. And now he has an entire party and movement running cleanup for him. Disgraceful.

1. These threats remain insane and impeachable and we should resist normalizing them
2. How many bluffs will it take before Axios stops reporting them credulously?
BREAKING: President Trump told me in a phone call that "the clock is ticking for Iran" and added: "They better get moving fast (towards a deal) or they are not gonna have anything left". More details on @axios soon

Trump's bizarre pre-recorded message to Rededicate 250 ended up on abrupt note, but that didn't stop the follow-up speaker from worshiping him as a false idol
Trump sent in a pre-recorded video for the Rededicate 250 blasphemy fest instead of speaking in person, and he still could barely read it cogently
(also, note him covering up the disfigured back of his right hand)

Mike Johnson is treating the Strait of Hormuz like it's a natural disaster. It's not. Trump launched a war of choice. The Joint Chiefs warned him it would close the strait. He did it anyway. Kitchen table issues are a consequence of that decision.

Put it on a bumper sticker
A holy ballroom!
"It's hard to believe that it would take two centuries for the Lord to raise up a great man to bring that ballroom finally to stand where it needs to stand."
At last, the ballroom we've all been praying for lo these many years.

So much for being a party with a platform, with a set of ideas.
