Don’t worry Kamala will be around she is not going anywhere
What’s going on? Is Graham scared ?
Who am I to advise my Democratic colleagues about what to do,” Graham reportedly said, according to CBS journalist Alan He.
Censure would probably gain some bipartisan support,” he said, adding that “the country going through an impeachment trial would be traumatic and I think we should avoid that if possible.” Traumatic for whom? Poor T I think it would be too dramatic for his lies/crimes to catch to T and the “Republicans.”
I’m hoping for the good of the country that it doesn’t come to the Senate,” he added.- For the good of the country is for T to resign and takes his corrupt administration and his wife and kids and be gone.
@baba--and others who've commented today on Kamala Harris' withdrawal:
During our group reading on 11-11-19 when looking forward to Jan. '21, I asked, "Where's Kamala?" and got this:
"I'm shown her wearing red or a deep pink and am told that she has aligned herself graciously and will be a pivotal force."
In previous meditations, I consistently saw her as an important presence during the presidential transition in '21, and throughout the next administration. While I'm disappointed this current run for President didn't work out for Kamala (I went to some of her rallies, I donated, I talked her up to friends!), there are, of course, very strong, very positive, and very wise energies at work. I believe she will continue to be placed strategically, protecting and advancing our democracy by serving in positions of prominence, as well as behind the scenes.
Baba, your meditation practice inspires me--thank you for sharing it! May of us feel the pain of being disconnected from family and members of our communities who have been brainwashed by the GOP/Faux news propaganda machine which prays upon their fears and need for belonging. I will join you in praying that the blindfolds come off and our country will unify to preserve The Constitution and democracy. We will need less division and greater mutual support to get through the coming years of increased climate-related disasters.
Poor T he can’t catch a break. Yesterday while some world leaders were conversing almong themselves some of their conversations was caught on tape.
The clip features parts of a conversation between the three foreign leaders, and though Trump’s name isn’t explicitly used, it certainly appears the men were referencing – and mocking – the hapless American president.
Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, French President Emmanuel Macron and the U.K.’s Boris Johnson, among others, were caught on video.
Trudeau, in particular, took note of Trump's staff and their “jaws dropping to the floor” during one of Trump’s rants.
At a certain level, this isn’t too surprising. Many have long assumed that world leaders privately ridiculed the American president’s buffoonery, so it hardly comes as a shock to see video proof of the kind of private conversations that seemed inevitable.
Trump assured Americans a couple of years ago, “We don’t want other leaders and other countries laughing at us anymore, and they won’t be. They won’t be.”
It’s painful to realize the degree to which he got this backwards.
I think someone’s feelings got hurt Boo boo
Yeah, he left the NATO Summit early in a snit after seeing that video.

I think he makes a very good point about the importance of our allies. I think that is why I lean more towards Biden as a candidate because he has a history, personal relationships with many of the people in leadership, if not their PMs as well as relationships within our state and diplomatic corps-- he will need to ramp up and restaff State as well as rebuild and strengthen international and political alliances.
You were spot on!
I don't know which is scarier; that he wasn't embarrassed to tweet that ridiculous photo, or that he sees himself that way.
I was reading today that a psychiatrist said his lies aren't even lies anymore; they are delusions of grandeur. He is that detached from reality. Terrifying.
As I was doing my daily meditation today sending light to the US and the situation there, I had a very different and puzzling vision towards the end that I noted afterwards:
I see a sea of people gathered around the Whitehouse all in a silent group and all carrying lit candles. It isn’t a boisterous or loud protest but one in which they all strive as a group to bring light to the darkness.
I have no idea what this means but it did not feel like a celebration and the mood was serious. The Whitehouse seemed dark on the inside (don’t know if that was literal or figurative).
If anyone has any thoughts on this, please feel free to share. I felt a little unsettled by it but mostly puzzled about what it means and what would cause this to happen.

This reminds me of a vigil either for someone who has died or someone who is dying(?). Did it feel more negative or positive overall? In this case, it feels like a representation of the national mood right now; those of us on the side of light are trying desperately to save our democracy and preserve our institutions, but so many of us are in the dark and/or prey to the dark forces currently occupying the White House.
