Love Comes Quickly

After thinking on and reading about things resulting from the elections, I'm feeling better. We got the House of Representatives, and that ain't nothing. We can fight back harder against Trump's pig-fucking stupidity, and make a real show of trying to be the grownups in the room. Let the Senate shoot down everything, but make sure every attempt to make things better and the reason it didn't happen is recorded and shown. Investigate everything. Loudly and publicly. Push hard.

Trump fired AG Jeff Sessions today - officially, Sessions resigned, but his resignation letter makes the truth of the thing clear. Sessions is pretty terrible, but he did have just enough of a fragment of integrity to recuse himself from any oversight of Robert Mueller's investigations. The new acting AG is, from the sound of it, a Trumpist yes-man, and may very well order the end of Mueller's work. Universe only knows what will happen then, and I can't imagine any of it  being good. The new House of Representatives may reactivate the investigation in January.

Interesting times.
