2020 the year from hell!

Gov just called state of emergency

Guitarist from the National got misidentified on the social media as a protest organizer, posts statement saying he is living somewhere in the countryside.  Conspire theorists continue to make comments claiming he's lying. 

the best being of course
“Explain the membership with The National”  ::)

DC Mayor Announces 7pm Curfew for tonight and tomorrow (Monday, Tuesday)

Well it's a good thing we don't have any shows to complain about missing

They have moved on from the guitarist in the National to the entire band including this scintillating observation "Never Seen A Gr0up Of Men Eat By Candlel1t before"

seems legit to me…hope they get those bastards!

can someone tell me what I'm suppposed to do with this?

not that it really means a hill of beans
but I do like that a lot of Democrats and members of the religious community are calling out this heinous photo-op moment

Rep. Don Beyer @RepDonBeyer
Donald Trump had peaceful American demonstrators, journalists, and clergy violently attacked and gassed to get these profane images of himself holding a Bible in front of a church

Friends, I am ok, but I am, frankly shaken. I was at St. John's, Lafayette Square most of the afternoon, with fellow clergy and laypeople - and clergy from some other denominations too. We were passing out water and snacks, and helping the patio area at St. John's, Lafayette square to be a place of respite and peace. All was well - with a few little tense moments - until about 6:15 or so. By then, I had connected with the Black Lives Matter medic team, which was headed by an EMT. Those people were AMAZING. They had been on the patio all day, and thankfully had not had to use much of the eyewash they had made. Around 6:15 or 6:30, the police started really pushing protestors off of H Street (the street between the church and Lafayette Park, and ultimately, the White House. They started using tear gas and folks were running at us for eyewashes or water or wet paper towels. At this point, Julia, one of our seminarians for next year (who is a trauma nurse) and I looked at each other in disbelief. I was coughing, her eyes were watering, and we were trying to help people as the police - in full riot gear - drove people toward us. Julia and her classmates left and I stayed with the BLM folks trying to help people. Suddenly, around 6:30, there was more tear gas, more concussion grenades, and I think I saw someone hit by a rubber bullet - he was grasping his stomach and there was a mark on his shirt. The police in their riot gear were literally walking onto the St. John's, Lafayette Square patio with these metal shields, pushing people off the patio and driving them back. People were running at us as the police advanced toward us from the other side of the patio. We had to try to pick up what we could. The BLM medic folks were obviously well practiced. They picked up boxes and ran. I was so stunned I only got a few water bottles and my spray bottle of eyewash. We were literally DRIVEN OFF of the St. John's, Lafayette Square patio with tear gas and concussion grenades and police in full riot gear. We were pushed back 20 feet, and then eventually - with SO MANY concussion grenades - back to K street. By the time I got back to my car, around 7, I was getting texts from people saying that Trump was outside of St. John's, Lafayette Square. I literally COULD NOT believe it. WE WERE DRIVEN OFF OF THE PATIO AT ST. JOHN'S - a place of peace and respite and medical care throughout the day - SO THAT MAN COULD HAVE A PHOTO OPPORTUNITY IN FRONT OF THE CHURCH!!! PEOPLE WERE HURT SO THAT HE COULD POSE IN FRONT OF THE CHURCH WITH A BIBLE! HE WOULD HAVE HAD TO STEP OVER THE MEDICAL SUPPLIES WE LEFT BEHIND BECAUSE WE WERE BEING TEAR GASSED!!!!

I am deeply shaken. I did not see any protestors throw anything until the tear gas and concussion grenades started, and then it was mostly water bottles. I am shaken, not so much by the taste of tear gas and the bit of a cough I still have, but by the fact that that show of force was for a PHOTO OPPORTUNITY. The patio of St. John's, Lafayette square had been HOLY GROUND today. A place of respite and laughter and water and granola bars and fruit snacks. But that man turned it into a BATTLE GROUND first, and a cheap political stunt second. I am DEEPLY OFFENDED on behalf of every protestor, every Christian, the people of St. John's, Lafayette square, every decent person there, and the BLM medics who stayed with just a single box of supplies and a backpack, even when I got too scared and had to leave. I am ok. But I am now a force to be reckoned with.

A senior White House official says when they saw the tear gas clearing the crowd for Trump: "I've never been more ashamed. I'm really honestly disgusted. I'm sick to my stomach. And they're all celebrating it. They're very very proud of themselves."

although…no one resigned

Pastors on the steps of #StJohnsChurch calling for end to police brutality, solidarity with #DCProtests. “God is always on the side of the oppressed. Mr. President, I promise your hands are too small to box with God.”

oh dang…took down that confederate statue in Old town Alexandria

sick burn.

ok this is a little badass


was looking for a good one of the guy doing it with a tennis racket
but found a Canadian doing it the way Canadians should (from 2001)

Snapchat will no longer promote President Trump’s account on its platform, the company announced Wednesday.
“We will not amplify voices who incite racial violence and injustice by giving them free promotion on Discover. Racial violence and injustice have no place in our society."

Facebook has been so horrible on Trump I am thinking of no longer using it but problem is my mom really uses it to stay in touch with us

I find Zuckerberg’s comments completely unacceptable

They are quick to censor anything we post no matter how innocent but can’t do same for Trump!? Laughable

Not this comes as a surprise but a guy setup an twitter account and sent out the exact same thing as our dear leader and it didn't take long for it to be suspended for violating stuff…
