THE FIRST FEMALE VICE PRESIDENT!
At least as it looks now. Will “they” let that happen? I am so excited. But cynical. IT REALLY HAPPENED!
Come for the tea. Stay for the shade.

Black and her mother is from India so a twofer of firsts. She will be President soon too because poor Joe probably won’t make four years.
Shut your mouth.
Thank you…
TT &NICOLE TERRY,
On my last reply/comment your name and email (gmail) appeared where my name & entail should be.
I deleted yours but thought TT & you should be aware.
It is only a email so I don’t see a problem but giving you two the info
You’re lovely.
What a horrible thing to say. What do you like him or not is irrelevant. It looks like he’s going to be the next president in this country needs a time of healing and no more upheaval
Should say whether you like him or not is irrelevant
I’m so happy in my soul for our country and women.
Finally the United States after 4 years is Standing Tall again on the world stage.
No more laughing at the USA or shaking their head in confusion.
Lisa, you can not be serious ????? you had a four year temper tantrum!!! ?????
And now you’re about to have one, and I am here for it.
Not a chance, Deb! I fully support Mr. Biden and his goals… be a lamb and remind me of his top three?
I intend to speak up with praise for our President at every successful juncture. It would be detrimental to our country as a united entity to do anything less. Don’t you agree, Deb?
I’m here for you and our country.
Joe has said from the beginning IF HE WERE TO RUN, it would be for only one term.
I really wanted Newsom in 2024!
Right wing radio has consistently been doing a hatchet job on Newsom for months since before Covid. He would start with a large mountain of crap to overcome. Newsom is intelligent and occasionally gets caught up in details and loses his audience.
Yes he would be a good President
That was a shitty thing to say.
Hmm. Worried about yourself making it another 4 years, perhaps? What other reason besides projection could you have for such a tasteless comment?
Speaking of tasteless… where’s Cumalot?
Censorship? Wow.
It’s almost over. It’s really about to happen. It’s been quite the wild week, but at least we’re finally in for a smooth landing today.
I guess we’ll have to wait and see when Biden and Harris make their announcement. I think we already know how Trump will react.
Have any of you every lived in San Francisco, where she got her political start? She will be President, Joe clearly shows cognitive decline-I give him 2 years in office until it is too obvious.
I think you’re the one who is confused. Perhaps it’s time for you to take a vacation to Thigh-land or Yo-Semite. People in glass houses sweetie.
Kaye, Joe is what our nation needs at this time in our history. The dignity, calmness, awareness of world politics and the ability to listen and trust others.
Joe will have Trump with him as a shadow President . Trump is addicted to the stage and will not be quiet or keep his thoughts to himself in the months and years ahead. He will constantly be criticizing Joe and rallying his hordes. It will be a tough time for Washington.
Trump will blame Democrats for his legal problems saying they are out to get him and stole the election. His hordes will believe his every lie.
LOL if Democrats had that type of power Trump would never been elected.
Yes I think the death of his son affected him deeply. That does not mean he is less than he was.
He has strong allies (Obama). I am hoping he gives Michelle Obama a position. Plus Kamala is strong
Michelle has repeatedly said that she is not interested. Heard her say it in person.
There are plenty of other strong, smart BIPOC men and women to choose from. Stacey Abrams for one!
Stacey is going to get us two senate seats next.
Yes Yes Yes!!
I will do my part. Georgia needs this.
Inshallah!!
Like⬆️
My LIKE ⬆️ Was directed to Ikaye❗️
Yes, I lived in San Francisco when she was DA and she spoke at my college graduation. So excited for her and us as a country!
What is wrong with you people? Have not noticed the mentally ill person that has been killing us and destroying the country? Where is you condemnation for his mental health. Joe Biden is healthy as a horse.
I don’t know about you, T, if you had any kids with speech impediments… but this bullshit about Joe Biden pisses me off.
If anything, the people I know who have a stutter are singularly focused and smart.
THANK YOU. My son has a speech delay/ impairment. It is a struggle every day. He is almost diagnosed with Childhood Apraxia. He has grasping, which can be confused with stuttering. It pisses me off.
You know jack shit about cognitive decline, or speech impediments.
FYI LARGE CHUNKS OF COMMENTS HERE HAVE BEEN REMOVED SO SOME REPLIES MAY APPEAR TO PEOPLE FOR WHOM THEY WERE NOT INTENDED! THE TRASH WAS TAKEN OUT.WHEN I REMOVE A USER, REPLIES TO THEIR COMMENTS ARE ALSO DELETED.
Thank you.
I am a Nurse Practitioner and see geriatric patients daily, I know a little something about it. I made no mention of his speech impediment, I don’t have any knowledge to comment about that so I did not.
I am not a psychiatrist so I cannot diagnose Trump and his issues.
But also I don’t want to argue or insult anyone. I want our nation to unite and heal like everyone. Certain things have me nervous, but we will be ok. I love this community!
You actually can’t diagnosis anyone as a nurse. It’s like if I said my son has special needs and I’m a special education teacher (both true) and I were to diagnose someone. I wouldn’t even try. Not my job.
I lived IN SF for 10 years and still live in the area. What does that have to do with your tasteless comment? Cognitive decline has been in the WH for the last 4 years as it is.
Secret Service has already beefed up their detail as of yesterday & the airspace above Biden’s house is now closed. So the Government is acting accordingly. He will be physically removed if necessary. Or as the Biden campaign stated in a just released statement, “The US Government is perfectly capable of escorting trespassers out of the White House.”
Then we need to have the White House saged before Joe takes over.
Lol, that’s for sure! A truck load of it!
And disinfected!
Hey Barbara, are you ready for the tropical storm heading our way? I’ve been to busy waiting for the final election results to worry about it!
I’m definitely getting worried. It was just a tropical storm but now has 65 mph winds. It’s a little late to do much. Maybe take in the outdoor furniture? I have to watch the latest report.
3-5” of rain for our area. I better get up early and secure some outdoor things too! With it coming in at a different angle than most storms I don’t know if it will bring flooding or suck the water out of the river! Be safe!
I put everything back out already. Just another rainy day in Florida.
Saged and fumigated! Given the number of COVID cases there, it needs to be thoroughly cleansed.
Not yet. Recount in Georgia. Still have hope for PA.
Biden does not need Georgia
Trump will start noticing an impotence of power immediately after Biden officially wins. This is a most dangerous time. I feel fully confident Biden’s contingency plan is in place and will be implemented at the first sign the fuse has been lit. They need to give him placebos to play with until the transfer takes place. Plus, give him all the attention until then. When a narcissistic megalomaniac loses attention, they don’t implode – they explode much to the detriment of everyone around them. Trump needs to be pacified with positive attention, given empty promises of prominence and importance, because he will satisfy his need with negative attention if he can’t get anything else. That is a bad bad thing for everyone. The transfer should be a slow fade, for our sake.
When he walks out of that house for the last time, NYSD attorneys will be waiting for him. He will need to abscond to a country without extradition agreements cuz his ass is going to be facing a myriad of charges for the next 20 years.
I think Afganistan fits that bill.
I hope not. Not for him, but for us. I don’t look forward to headlines. I would like to progress past this period. I want to hear more about our future and not our past. Maybe just the charges will be enough to send him into self-exile. Napoleon comes to mind.
Dizzy I hope you get your wish. I fear Trump will be the shadow president. He will be loud and the lies will continue. He will never stop needing attention.
The lies will be more flagrant as there will be no advisors trying to rein him in!
Trump needs the campaign to pay his legal bills, so he’ll keep rallying indefinitely.
Even though I would like it be otherwise, I think you make very good points!
What a tumultuous week watching the election coverage. I hope we are rewarded with a new president and Vice President!
I love your title tt, but too am cynical!
This election proves every vote counts. We often get list in the millions of votes cast, does our lone vote matter. We can see in actual time where our vote matters.
If Biden takes Arizona & Nevada the court cases won’t matter.
*Lost not list
If Biden holds Arizona all he needs is Nevada.
My state had the governorship decided by 129 votes (after 3 recounts).
Every damn vote matters.
Your plan until Jan. 1. Then Trump’s arrest!
One way or another, WE will be paying for Trump until he dies. If he wants to go to the most expensive hotel in Dubai, WE PAY for Secret Service. Just like WE have paid MILLIONS for them to stay at Trump properties. At FULL PRICE. Trump was supposed to distance himself from his businesses. His businesses were not supposed to profit/benefit by his presidency. His entire presidency has been a promo shot and windfall for his businesses!
BECAUSE we need to pay, I would rather pay for his prison cell — or CUBE, as they call it in the white collar federal “resort” facilities — such as the Lompoc Camp (as opposed to the adjacent Lompoc Penitentiary!
He’ll be in pri2son. That’s why he’s so scared. He will now have to face all of those lawsuits, the sexual harassment and rapes, NYC trial(s). He and his entire family will be tried. My bet is he’ll flee the country and run into Putin’s arms.
I don’t care the sex or race of anyone who is elected or will be sitting in seats. Get in on merit. Do your job and do it for us, not for yourself. Stop tweeting every little thing that comes in your head. Have a filter. Be professional. Be gracious. Be kind. Be a leader. That’s all I care about.
Being the first black woman Vice President is phenomenal and 100% deserves every amount of praise that comes with it. Race in this instance does and will always be important! I’m so happy for her. But I agree with you on everything else, and she has already proven to be a better leader than Cheeto Burrito by incredible margins
He had no clue how votes were actually counted. or which ones are legal. In the past every opportunity was given for a vote to matter.
Yes UD’s were often required w questionable ballots but people provided them.
He is the first to try and make a vote no matter. Our voting process has stood apart from most other countries as the best. He is trying to make Americans question everything we are proud of.
Yes question a vote or a box of ballots but do not call it fraud and imply it was done against him. People make mistakes and our courts have been unclear and biased.
Soo true!
I’m soooo proud of her. And thank god for all the people of Georgia and pa for pulling through. Thank god for the poll workers who are literally putting there life at risk. I am feeling a big wave of calm and excitement.
I’m so excited for her to become our first black, asian, AND female president!!! This is no shade to Joe, he’s just old. I love the concept of their tag team honestly — Biden will bring a calm so Harris can swoop in with progress! I just hope she becomes president in Biden’s second term because this election solidified the facts: America would have been way too racist to elect her.
Much will depend on performance. They have an oily mess to clean up before they can get down to the real business of governing. They have to repair the termite damage to the organizational structure before they can apply their template. I don’t think their repair is cosmetic. They will want to fix the foundation before they install the new drapes and carpet. Once Trump “drained the swamp”, he got stuck in the mud.
Just imagining the first address to Congress. Biden speaking, and two women sitting behind him. One of mixed race.
Bistonmvr,
WOW what a image Just Wow! TY
“Madam Vice-President, Madame Speaker, members of congress…..”
Yes, Yes, and Yes! Your comment gave me chills, in a good way. Can’t wait to see this in real time.
Half Jamaican and half Indian.
Just like Obama he was the first half black and half white president raised by his white side of the family.
WOOHOO!!! It’s about time!
I couldn’t POSSIBLY be more thrilled! Kamala is an AMAZING and accomplished woman and I’m so happy to have been supporting her for a long time. We will FINALLY be out from under the Trump regime, but we ARE going to have to deal with an increasingly decompensating man who IS still the president (ugh) for 70ish days. Then… we must work hard to help our national treasure Stacey Abrams ELECT Rev. Warnock and John Osloff to the Senate in the January runoff. THEN, we need to work to repair the damage that Trump and his corrupt administration did to our beautiful country in less than 4 years. We have a LOT of work to do… But I would like to personally THANK every single Black woman in this country who are responsible for these amazing results. Frankly, the Democrats need to make Stacey Abrams the head of the DNC! She’s a ROCK STAR, says this 62 year old Northern white woman.
Ditto Ditto Ditto from this 55 year old Northern white woman!
Jon Ossoff is his name, and YES to getting him and Ralph Warnock elected!
From your lips to God’s ears! I too am cynical, who wouldn’t be after Bush v Gore, but it’s looking good. Very good ?
I really didn’t think it was going to be this close. There are going to be a few few counts just like years past I will always like I live. Just need to know if I move to another state.
The U.S. reported over 1,000 Covid-19 deaths for the fourth straight day, a first since August. It also set another daily record for new virus cases.
Friday, November 6, 2020 11:08 PM EST
As the eyes of a tired nation remained transfixed on the results of the presidential election, the United States set a daily record for new cases for the third straight day, with more than 129,000 new cases on Friday.
BREAKING NEWS
President Trump’s chief of staff, Mark Meadows, tested positive for the coronavirus on Wednesday, an official said.
Friday, November 6, 2020 11:29 PM EST
Mr. Meadows aided Mr. Trump’s efforts to play down the virus throughout the summer. A second White House aide is also said to have tested positive.
I saw this news break and my only thought was “how can these ppl suck so badly at life???”
Because they think it is a giant hoax because their fearless leader says so. Not sure how they justify that when the whole fucking White House is constantly exposed, and gets it. None of them have died yet. And they then expose their entire families and grandma dies, It’s like he is trying to kill his constituency but he’d have to be insane to do that. I predict some of his White House minions die because they can’t get the royal treatment he got.
I don’t know about you, T, if you had any kids with speech impediments… but this bullshit about Joe Biden pisses me off.
If anything, the people I know who have a stutter are singularly focused and smart.
Not TT, but it pisses me off royally as my daughter has been in speech therapy since she was 3 and also has dyslexia. These ppl make me feel violently angry because I see it as a direct attack on so many innocent children just trying to get through the day without being bullied.
What a great example kids have in Joe Biden in working hard in getting around their obstacles such as stuttering (and Amanda, one of my good family friends has dyslexia, and he stuttered a lot as a kid. I only notice a stutter once in a while, a little like Joe Biden)
Did you and your daughter watch the Dem Convention and see young Brayden’s speech? He’s the young man that Joe Biden met on the campaign trail (pre-COVID). Biden talked to this young man and not only tips but his phone number… and called him (as he does with others)
Brayden also sent Biden a pep talk for the 2nd debate (that didn’t happen, but still)
She didn’t watch with me but I told her the story and we’ve spoken about Mr. Biden’s hardships more times than I can count. She is so thrilled by the idea of having a president who isn’t a playground bully. Kids are so pure. They can spot a bully a mile away and she called Trump out the minute he started campaigning, seems like three decades ago. She wasn’t the only kid in her class who did the same. I’m have great hope for the youngsters of today. They are unique and are motivated by helping one another rather than getting ahead.
Sorry, Amanda, I am sleeping odd hours and it took me a while to take out the trash. She’s gone and I apologize for the delay.
As a result, some comments were also deleted and others may appear to agree or disagree with a comment that was not intended, It’s the only way to erase someone.
Amanda – she should watch!!! Brayden is brave and a cutie to boot!
FYI – my friend with dyslexia? He’s a designer for an architectural firm. He believes that designing buildings, etc…. he has an ADVANTAGE over others because of his dyslexia – he can quickly imagine what the plans would look like all reversed, etc. He has tried to describe how his brain is in 3D while the rest of us poor saps is in 2D.
Hugs to her. And yes, I have hope for youngsters today, and Gen Z for that matter. They, not the millennials, are the better legacy of Gen X.
Thank you Erica! My daughter currently wants to do something with design and I must say she’s the most talented little artist ever, but I’m super biased!!
No worries, TT! I don’t know how you keep up with our crazy!
I’m praying for our “better angels” to heal this country, and our children and babies are truly angels (most days ?).
I think when this insanity is all said and done, we should dedicate a national “Smudging Day”, where we all engage in a massive cleansing of all the bad energy from our homes, workplaces and elsewhere, by burning sage.
A national smudging day is an excellent idea. Along with a healing meditation done by everyone simultaneously, no matter your time zone.
where do we buy the smudge sticks? I think we need to cleanse from this whole fucking year.
I sold a couple dozen bundles today! And palo santo stick!
What a phenomenal election. The citizens have spoken!
Is it weird to say, YEAH 2020!! (We needed that!)
So I am watching a really weird series on HBO called We Are Who We Are… Set in 2016, this coming-of-age drama series from Luca Guadagnino (Call Me by Your Name) follows two American teenagers as they explore their true identities while living on a military base in the seaside town of Chioggia, Italy.
The base has a huge viewing of The World Series or something and THERE HE IS , the Cheetorino in Charge in a political ad. I hope those military ballots are all blue.
Also, the guy who write this should not have had a “girl gets her first people” scene because he has no clue how that works.
Tamara, I just have to say how much I appreciate this space that you provide and *most* of the other commenters (lol) so thank you! It is somewhere I look forward to going.
Yes!!!!! President Biden and Vice President Harris!! ?
Breaking news, elected!
AMEN.
Not enough Clorox on the entire planet to bleach out that stain. Unfortunately he will not go quietly or of his own accord.We will need a Nurse Ratchet & a lobotomy procedure hopefully a live feed from the basement bunker he hid in last time he caused an uproar. I am absolutely thrilled with the Biden Harris victory!
