Of all of the president's soldiers in his Cabinet, Donald Trump was once the happiest with Attorney General Bill Barr. After all, since he was confirmed back in February 2019, Barr has done Trump's personal bidding at every turn. That was then, this is now. The question reportedly is will Trump bar Barr, or will Barr trump Trump? it ain’t over till the fat guy sings... Listen!

Barr says The US Justice Department found no evidence of voter fraud that would change the election outcome, according to The AP.

Which one do you think you are and will you be smart about it and start to work on it from now on till death won't you start?

Givers, or takers... Which one are you and why? In relationships, there is rarely a perfect balance between giving and receiving. Power dynamics between givers and takers are more common. 

Takers are self-focused and put their own interests ahead of others’ needs. They try to gain as much as possible from their interactions while contributing as little as they can in return.

Warning For America

Jochen Bittner has issued a dire warning to America: outgoing President Donald Trump’s narrative that he and his supporters had their victory “stolen” from them echoes the post-World War I nationalist rage in Germany that ultimately brought about the rise of Nazism.

"Mr. Trump’s baseless accusations about electoral fraud could do serious harm," writes @JochenBittner "A myth of betrayal and injustice is well underway."

No, not that one. We still have to wait until December 14, or January 20 depending on whether you're a pessimist or an optimist.

We’re referring to the weather. The 2020 Atlantic hurricane season ends today. The season broke plenty of records including the most named storms in a season and the most U.S. continental landfalls by a named storm. The disastrously devastating Hurricane Season, not to be confused with the other one which will have lasted four long and degrading years of hate and fear, which is so near that we wish it were already here.

BORN LOSER

He has been losing since birth, so then why is it that even when he wins something he goes on to lose it sooner or later? He is now the problem of the GOP and they will have to clean up the mess he makes from now on.

Losers are created when they become overly negative and have nothing positive in their life, including people who really love them. This mindset is created through a lack of gratitude and appreciation for what they have and should be thankful for.
