PJM: The day’s big election “news” is Julián Castro dropping out of the 2020 presidential race. Which is a helpful reminder that Julián Castro was running for president. Most Americans still get him confused with his twin brother Joaquin, who beat him to the punch by not running for president in the first place. (It would’ve been funny if they both ran and then switched places on the campaign trail, just to see if anybody noticed.) The Democratic field just got even less diverse. And the day isn’t even over yet.
John DiStaso, WMUR-TV in Manchester, New Hampshire:
Marianne Williamson, who has been campaigning for the Democratic presidential nomination on a message of love and has been urging voters to “join the evolution,” has laid off her entire staff in New Hampshire and nationally, sources close to the campaign confirmed to WMUR on Thursday…
At its height, the sources said, Williamson employed about 45 staffers in the four early voting states as well as her central campaign headquarters.
I didn’t even realize she had a staff. I figured it was just her, some crystals, and a few bottles of essential oils. read more
So my chance of seeing the White House with plastic beads hanging from the doorways and Peter Max and Keep on Trucking posters on the wall just took a nosedive?
And having The Grateful Dead and Jefferson Airplane and Yanni as well as sitar music at the Inaugural ball and Bill Walton as one of the honored hippie jerk off guests.
I guess Mike Obama’s wardrobe is about as close as we are going to get to a bad LSD trip in the White-house. At least Barry got to smoke pot in the Oval Office.
The end of Team Starshine, now I haz a sad. /s
I’m sure the herbal tea leaves told them it was coming.
She can still incorporate astral projection and watch how PRESIDENT Trump carries out his 2nd term duties inside the Oval Office.
But he’s good at spiritual drone strikes so…
Or the consulting of goat entrails. OM, OM , where’s Ravi Shankar and his sitar as well as the idiot who gave us transcendental meditation. What a bunch of hooie!
They can take comfort in knowing they were laid off with love.
I predict she’s going to donate whatever she raised (lol) to Klobuchar.
And then go smoke a lavender bong.
I’d tap that! I mean for a running mate.
She’d smoke it out of a Mr. Natural ceramic bong. I had one once, don’t ask me why, it was the 70’s.
Marianne, contact us. We desperately need new age type guests.
So… no Crystal Palace in D.C.?! Excuse me while I cuddle with my emotional support flower.
If you’re a laid off girl under 15, come and see me. I have something special for you.
“I didn’t even realize she had a staff.”
…of COURSE she did! EVERY wizard does…

…are you QUITE sure that they DIDN’T?
If you’re a Ukrainian Tgirl, come on over. You’ve got something special for me.
“I didn’t even realize she had a staff.”
…you could also say that, while SHE may not have a staff, she’s probably had no shortage of guys willing to staff HER, you know, “Free Love” and all that…
THIS would have been Marianne’s Veep pick…

Well, the glad news is even the “officially f*cking crazy” Democrats weren’t interested in her. I guess even they have their limits.
Who needs a campaign staff, when you have “ESSENTIAL” oils?! 😆
Whew! I’m glad I read that headline twice. The first time I missed the word “off”.
I just came back to read the comments and giggle.
of all the dem candidates
she was my first choice
