Hello from Day 21 of the opening of California. Wow was today a disgrace. Trump’s attorney was literally laughed at by the Senate. And still they acquitted, despite a net gain of seven. I was fuming today. And then Mitch McConnell gave that rebuke after he voted to acquit. Get outta town. He made these remarks after credits started rolling. Who was watching then? Really lame stuff. But, yeah, the laughing at the attorney should color the acquittal for history.

Yesterday I missed AEON, ALLEGE, ALONG, GAGE, GALL, GONNA, NAAN, NONAGON, and NONAGONAL.
