Yikes! It is going to be a long season. Hope for a high draft pick I guess and go from there.

Bless her heart. She is so proud of herself.

Starting to seriously think about giving up my tickets. I'm still hanging onto mine for now, but it is a year-to-year decision. I wonder how quickly the Cubs are going to exhaust the entire waiting list with the combination of higher prices, economic challenges, and poor performance. Even in the be...

How about... and hear me out on this... they try to accomplish two things at once!

But how are the schools going to get by???

I'm conflicted about the media "exposing" these nutcases like the "QAnon Shaman". The authorities know who they are, so stop giving the people individual attention. That is exactly what they want.

Still better than not at all.

Keep dreaming, bro. You think 2/3 of the Senate will vote for it?

That is impeachment, and I think it's possible.

As the night goes on, there appears to be growing charter that "something" has to happen with Trump. Will it be the 25th amendment, impeachment, or resignation? Or will Trump repent under immense pressure and concede in effort to stave off further humiliation? Or will he just disappear for...

The 25th Amendment can be invoked tonight.

They won't get enough GOP votes. Its political suicide for any that flip

The party is already in shambles. Either they rip off the band-aid, or let it continue to fester.

Realistically, can this actually happen in time to remove Trump from office?

Looks like a lot of people standing around doing nothing now, including the cops.

True, but there are still people (not Trump supporters) who don't think exercising Constitutional powers is worth the time. I suppose the thinking goes, "unless you do A and it results in B, why bother?" There is seemingly no perceived value in simply doing what should be done, simply for...

Whenever Congress reconvenes, anyone who was planning on objecting to the results of any additional states better horsefeathering reconsider. Stop feeding these people.

Guys with guns right behind those doors. Both doors I’m assuming. This is not going to end well.

After the rioters break down the doors, those armed police may even go so far as to speak to them in harsh tones.

Donald Trump - This is your legacy.

Derwood wrote:Damn, listen to McConnell up there speaking sense.

Spinning this as "we need to take the high road." That ship sailed a long time ago.

Now that the Electoral College doesn't work to the Republican's advantage, they want the Federal government to rule how states should choose their EC voters. Scalise is a piece of horsefeathers. I don't even understand his argument. He is arguing completely about the "process", so is the ...

weren't all/most vaccinated about 3-4 weeks ago now? they should be decently OK, if so.

Yeah, I guess I didn't even think about that. It is going to take a long time to feel comfortable seeing groups of people together again.

Masks or not, that's a lot of Senators crammed into tight quarters.

Is any network going to call anything tonight or are they all going to draw this out into tomorrow? Warnock is a lock at this point.

NY Times now has it >95% for Ossoff as well.

Everyone is asleep now. Quick, dump the votes!

NY Times is up to:
Warnock >95%
Ossoff 83%

Meanwhile, CNN continues to paint a grim picture.
