I don't think Pence would do [poop] in that general direction, at this point.  He's largely trying to bunker up and get out alive.

They're cop killers.

In a 124-page complaint filed in the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia, Dominion said its reputation and resale value have been deeply damaged by a “viral disinformation campaign” that Powell mounted “to financially enrich herself, to raise her public profile, and to ingratiate herself to Donald [Sleezebag].” The defendants named in the lawsuit include Powell, her law firm and Defending the Republic, the organization she set up to solicit donations to support her election-related litigation.

Well look, I'm guessing about what Pence is "thinking", but I saw him on TV banging the wooden hammer and pronouncing Joseph R. Biden of Delaware President Elect.  You can guess, Easily and with Very High Confidence how that has played to his Tea Party base.

He's dead as a politician now.

My thinking, Wednesday night, was this is his only chance he'll ever have to have it say President on his tombstone.  I'll stand behind that, but that boy done had himself a serious scare, and he's probably figuring it might make a big difference in how soon that tombstone goes up, or at least how hard his Secret Service detail has to work for the rest of his life.  -And he's only 61; probably two or three decades difference we're talking about.

And what with the cabinet resignations and all...

Beats me, but seems to calculate out that if there was zero sign yesterday of 25th happening, it ain't happening at all.

---

And my hopes on the impeachment end are not good, largely the same reasoning wrt promptness.  It needed to happen Wednesday night past or it's just a political gesture -a necessary one, lest future losers try the same stunt- but next week ignores the most important reason, removing the powers of President from a violent Traitor, instanter, and also lessens the chances of Impeachment actually happening and also of the Senate confirming.

---

And with all respect to Mr. Biden, out of an abundance of caution for my own life, I will not be in attendance at the Inauguration.

It was already going to be extremely thin as well as the Parade afterwards being virtual, due to C-19, so...

Been hearing something about a "Million MAGA March" for the 20th...  I sure hope there's at least 1,000 armored po-po waiting, no matter where the ceremony.

If they do show up, there's not really a good outcome.

Agreed.

Nothing like a million, of course, but one percent of that is very bad news.

After events on the 6th, a lot of them will not be there.  Many people from before have lost jobs and with reduced stimulus checks (which was very likely part of the plan for the increased amount that [Sleezebag] wanted), they will not have the additional stones for hotel rooms as well as the 20th is typically one of the coldest days in DC.  My Sister worked one of the First Aid Tents, right at the Capitol Steps, for Obama's first Inauguration.  She was treating Hypothermia and other cold related things...  and it was COLD that day

Any word on Weather Forecast for 20th?

Apropos of what I said about Pence's situation, here's Lindsey Graham at the airport today, not having a pleasant walk.

I saw the alien phalanx coming toward us, and I calmed my mind as Kri'lan had taught me. And what I saw next to the phalanx was a shadow regiment, half-formed from the resonance around them. I cursed the aliens... with power like that, each one could fight as many, and I thanked Planet for sending us the betrayer.
