Flying down Hell's playground slide. Welcome to the week of August 11, 2020.

While Biden's new running partner, Kamala Harris has been all over the airwaves, other things continue happening.

• The United States Post Office has had machines removed that sort mail, creating an enormous backlog and delay in a humongous volume of mail across the nation. Mail that includes medications people receive at home because they are unable to get to a pharmacy easily (or at all), their financial payments, and more time sensitive things.
• The US Senate has decided that NOW is a great time to take a break from all THEIR hard work and suffering while everyone else is waiting for a decision about federal assistance to keep us all above water with rent, mortgages and other things we dont have money for if you aren't able to work from home.
• Two men in Bend, Oregon were literally snatched off the street and abducted by ICE agents. 12 hours later, federal agents appeared in riot gear and violently pushed through hundreds of peaceful protesters trying to intercede for the two men and then snatched up the two men and drove him off to an undisclosed Federal agency without ever allowing them food, water or access to a lawyer during this entire time. Both of these men have been law abiding citizens in Bend, Oregon for 15 YEARS with families and established relationships with the community. They were on their way to work when they were snatched off the street.

And I am sure there is more that I am missing. Meanwhile:

• It is reported that Trump must submit to a physical exam and supply DNA by September 15, 2020 as part of a rape case investigation involving a woman who alleges he raped in the middle of the day in a retail store dressing room. https://www.cbsnews.com/news/e-jean-carroll-woman-who-accused-donald-trump-of-rape-is-seeking-dna-sample-as-evidence-2020-01-30/

• And his taxes have officially been handed over and right now, his bank has been supoenaed for documents. https://www.nytimes.com/2020/08/05/nyregion/trump-taxes-vance-deutsche-bank.html

And he has to know he is going to prison the minute he leaves office, 

and he will be truly, totally bankrupted with no second chances after this. We are witnessing someone in the most powerful position in the country being cornered like a trapped animal. He isn't smart. He isn't sophisticated. He isn't even clever. He is only well protected by very smart strategists around him who are telling him which plays to make to try and save his ass right now. And we have 82 days to the election and Biden-Harris, neither of whom indicated any meaningful plan or strategy for the nation during the debates, are our LITERAL last chance to save ourselves from becoming Russia or Belarus or Argentina or China or.....

And here we are, a nation actually filled with people so damn dumb, arrogant and hateful that they refuse to wear masks because they would rather kill all of us AND our children and grandparents than accept the fact that the future is changing and they aren't going to be the center of that Universe anymore. Angry anti-mask mob attack hostess of restaurant

you think it is acceptable to police women's bodies and their reproductive organs, then there shouldn't be one good reason why we can't police your body to stop a pandemic that could kill entire groups of people indiscriminately.

I will, later. be doing an analysis of Biden-Harris, as a team and Harris, specifically. 

I don't judge people by their appearance when I can avoid it. I am definitely only judging these two based on their behavior and choices up to this point and with Harris, I have concerns. Perhaps her chart will show us something better than her professional history has.

More soon. After I pull myself together, my back spasms stop for more than a couple hours at a time and I can find my optimism and sanity underneath this overwhelming sense of budding hysteria that is mounting as we speak.
