One toke of Rococo Coffee over the line

Is something going on for Christmas?  It seems like there's a slight uptick in ornaments already.  Maybe people just put them up because they had nothing else to do but as always, I wonder...  It's not like I have anything else to do.

They don't even try to pretend they're doing this for anything other than power.  I'm trying to figure out when this change was made.  I've suspected for a while that Democrats have thrown parties at various funerals, so maybe it would be McCain's funeral that it happened.

Ok, now we're getting to Civil War 2.0.  Alabama, Arkansas, Florida, North Dakota, Indiana, Kansas, Louisiana, Mississippi, Missouri, Montana, Nebraska, Oklahoma, South Carolina, South Dakota, Tennessee, Texas, Utah and West Virginia.  The North Dakota-to-Texas line sticks out, a total division of east-west.

Georgia, Michigan, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin have to respond by 3:00 PM Thursday (tomorrow.)  It's not clear what they have to respond to or how, possibly it's just reporting to the court that they will defend themselves or something along those lines.  This is probably what Trump was referring to about something happening in the 'next few days.'

Is this why there was a Supreme Court change right before the election?  I remember comments after the 2018 elections that keeping the Senate was the important part and obviously they'd be required for the new Supreme Court members.  I don't trust them and I'm not happy that we went this far (and will obviously go farther) but thinking about this suggests how high-up decisions get made.
