Happy new year one and all! Glitterball Thanks for the splendid perseverance and the tenacity to not turn away but to bear witness and share perspectives and info.

Can I propose two thread resolutions?

  1. don’t let the bastards grind you down
  2. persist

Happy New Year to those who have reached it already Smile
Here in wet windy Scotland we have another 5 hrs and 5 mins to go (and yes, I’m counting... 5 more mins till the wee boy goes to his bed!).

lettuceWrap · 31/12/2017 18:56

So it’s about 30mins till WineGin time Grin

Hey everyone. Just wanted to join in the new year wishes. You are all the most bigly beautiful, clever and most awesome ever. Grin

Cor, lettuce wish mine was going to bed in 5. I will only just be starting the long and interminable process of gently nudging her towards the idea of sleep then. Gah! Wink

"There are many times he has expressed, I'm told by people in the White House, the desire to fire Mueller, the desire to pardon people under investigation including his family,"

That article doesn't surprised me in the least lion. Trump's lawyers know that they have a rabid dog foaming at the mouth on their hands and that they only have a few pieces of plywood on hand to corral him into a corner with. I'd be willing to hazard a guess, since they've made these statements to Bernstein, that they know they're fighting a losing battle and it's only a matter of time.

I'm only hoping that when Scrotus completely loses it, that he does it in such a spectacular fashion that no amount of lying and 'alternative facts' will disguise the truth.

lionheart · 31/12/2017 21:14

Let's hope.

Happy 2018 everyone, and onwards to better things Glitterball (‘tis the glitterball of hope).

cozietoesie · 31/12/2017 22:46

My main hope, Across, is that if he 'loses it', it won't be in a .........south-easterly direction.

cozietoesie · 31/12/2017 23:01

It seems that the Aftermath is already exercising minds. A Beast piece.

What's red, blue and broke all over?

As our Country rapidly grows stronger and smarter, I want to wish all of my friends, supporters, enemies, haters, and even the very dishonest Fake News Media, a Happy and Healthy New Year. 2018 will be a great year for America!

Happy New Year! And advance best wishes for those of you across the Atlantic.

“Hope” is the thing with feathers -
That perches in the soul -
And sings the tune without the words -
And never stops - at all -

And sweetest - in the Gale - is heard -
And sore must be the storm -
That could abash the little Bird
That kept so many warm -

I’ve heard it in the chillest land -
And on the strangest Sea -
Yet - never - in Extremity,
It asked a crumb - of me.

badbadhusky · 01/01/2018 01:22

Woohoo! We made it into 2018. In the present situation, that needs celebrating more.

badbadhusky · 01/01/2018 01:23

PS Happy New Year, all!

Happy New 2018, you fake posters and haters.

The year for Democrat wins, and no nuclear winter.

Happy New Year, Resisters far and wide!
