Just spoke to a staffer for @beyer.house.gov asking what line Trump has to cross in order for the rep to support and go forward with impeachment. Don’t worry guys, I was assured Rep. Beyer is “very upset” by everything that is going on. 🙄

"Advocates" are typically going to be experts on the subjects being reported, so they can explain facts and context that ordinary people.
Those ordinary people are often idiots who are often clueless about subjects.

A couple weeks ago we got a lovely note from someone on the other side of the country thanking us profusely for ILLing a book to them. Curious, we looked up the book they borrowed.
It would have cost $1,200 for them to purchase it.
ILL is one of the things I love most about libraries.

Trump Crowns Himself 'THE AFFORDABILITY PRESIDENT'

I am no psychiatrist but this chit's getting serious.
And who can sit his ignorant rump down with some pie charts and explain basic 4th grade percentages.

Waiting for Rian Johnson to get into a library for whatever his next mystery project is. Ideally another #KnivesOut but I’ll take anything.
