Wednesday Open Thread | Christmas Jams 2019

Please Come Home for Christmas” is a Christmas song, released in 1960, by the American blues singer and pianist Charles Brown. Hitting Billboard’s Hot 100 chart in December 1961, the tune Brown co-wrote with Gene Redd peaked at position #76. It appeared on the Christmas Singles chart for nine seasons, hitting #1 in 1972.[2] It includes a number of characteristics of Christmas music, such as multiple references in the lyrics to the Christmas season and Christmas traditions, and the use of a Church bell type sound, created using a piano, at the start of the song. It is sometimes referred to as Bells Will Be Ringing.

    I just wanna get this right, Republicans: Trump can fire anyone in the executive branch. It doesn’t matter how slimy it is, he can do it, right? Because of the Constitution?
    But if Democrats follow the Constitution and impeach Trump, that’s wrong.
    Man, the GOP is a sack of dicks https://twitter.com/rudepundit/status/1204181281833132032?s=20

    Yeah um no. It was actually a distortion of her record. It wasn’t a critique at all. It was an announcement that if a Black woman is a prosecutor she is not to be trusted period. https://t.co/PXS4BKNOyw https://twitter.com/GrooveSDC/status/1204413458579689472?s=20

    It’s been just two months since John Deere laid off 160 workers in the Quad Cities in part because of President Trump’s reckless trade war—and now, a second round of layoffs is expected in the same community.

    @ladyc10 But it pisses me off that Liz wasn’t vetted before!!! When they were dragging Kamala, this trick sat back knowing she had body bags in her damn closet. They are just now vetting her because they feel guilty about Kamala. They better get Pete’s ass too. https://twitter.com/MrsZiggy1988/status/1204480145287008256?s=20
