The art of the "deal" ...

Iran.
The assassination that was conducted.
Israel would never do it without US/Trump sign off.
DESIGNED to happen before administration change.
DESIGNED to create HAVOC for Biden.
There will be real fallout.
Only question is WHEN it happens.
Trump = wrecking ball.
Buckle up.

Many Trump supporters are saying that if Loeffler, Perdue & the Georgia GOP can't deliver a victory for Trump, they shouldn't help deliver Loeffler & Perdue a victory in January. We agree. RT & chip in to help fund these billboards in Trump counties in GA. https://t.co/8QpFNx69oA

I agree. Stay home and teach The Man a lesson, Republicans!

Woman creates quilt to honor coronavirus victims and front-line workers https://t.co/ZC8qeJGUBX
— The Washington Post (@washingtonpost) November 27, 2020

D.C.-area residents have helped make 450 cloth panels for a quilt. The idea is modeled after the AIDS Memorial Quilt that became well known in the 1980s.

This quality headline by @crismcabrera just inspired me to crank up Tiny Dancer which is a quality John/Taupin joint. Thanks, Cristina! https://t.co/8sPtqEUzvm

Song of the Day: 'Ask the Angels' by the Patti Smith Group

I've always been a casual Patti Smith fan -- only bought "Horses" and "Easter" and read "Just Kids" -- but may need to reconsider my stance after watching the "Rock Legends" episode about her on AXSTV during which I realized I like a lot more of her music than I realized, including "Frederick," "Ask the Angels," "Glitter in Their Eyes," "People Have the Power" and this masterpiece from 1975's "Radio Ethiopia."
