In Which We Discuss:

1. Puerto Rico - they still have no power

2. Indictments are coming down in the Russia probe, so a nuclear war is probably starting this week

3. The GOP will champion an unbalanced budget if and only if their desperate need for a win overrides their deepest help principles. So...anytime.

4. Too many GOP lawmakers are scared of the political process right now

5. Sexual harassment: Everybody’s doing it. Literally...it’s too many people.

6. Trump delighted by trick-or-treating visit from un-fat children with terrible media parents
