    AP FACT CHECK: Trump’s claims on vaccine, election are wrong

    excerpt:

    "TRUMP: “Pennsylvania prevented us from watching much of the Ballot count. Unthinkable and illegal in this country.” — tweet Monday.

    THE FACTS: His assertion is false.

    Trump is wholly misrepresenting a court case in the state and what happened at voting places. No one tried to ban poll watchers representing each side in the election. Democrats did not try to stop Republican representatives from being able to observe the process.

    The main issue in the case was how close observers representing the parties could get to election workers who are processing mail-in ballots in Philadelphia. Trump’s representatives sued to allow the observers to get closer than the guidelines had allowed. A court ruled in favor of that request.

    The counting in Philadelphia was being livestreamed and Trump’s lawyers admitted in court that their campaign had observers in the room — “a non-zero” number of them, as they put it.

    It was well-known that huge numbers of mailed-in ballots as well as in-person ballots were to be counted after Election Day and that many would be from Democratic-leaning areas. That’s why news organizations did not call Pennsylvania for Trump."

    Fighting Election Results, Trump Employs a New Weapon: The Government

    excerpt:

    "“What we have seen in the last week from the president more closely resembles the tactics of the kind of authoritarian leaders we follow,” said Michael J. Abramowitz, the president of Freedom House, a nonprofit organization that tracks democracy around the world. “I never would have imagined seeing something like this in America.”

    Abramowitz doubted there was much danger of Trump overturning the election. “But by convincing a large part of the population that there was widespread fraud, he is seeding a myth that could endure for years and contribute to an erosion of public confidence in our electoral system,” he said."

    The frightening thing is even if they hand recount it and the results are the same, team Trump will still poo poo and dispute the results.

    Trump assigns more loyalists in the Pentagon after firing Esper.


    Fighting Election Results, Trump Employs a New Weapon: The Government

    excerpt:

    "In extending his purge of the Pentagon on Tuesday, Trump replaced three more policy officials with loyalists. Some Defense Department officials worried that the replacements could be more amenable to striking American adversaries than their predecessors were.

    James Anderson, the acting undersecretary of defense for policy who was at odds with the White House, stepped down and was effectively replaced by Anthony Tata, who became “the senior official performing the duties of the undersecretary of defense for policy,” as the announcement put it.

    Tata, a retired Army one-star general who has called Islam “the most oppressive violent religion” and referred to former President Barack Obama as a “terrorist leader,” withdrew from consideration for the top Pentagon policy job in August amid opposition from both Republican and Democratic senators. The president also installed Kashyap Patel, a former aide to Rep. Devin Nunes, R-Calif., who played a key role in helping Republicans try to undermine the Russia investigation, as chief of staff to the new acting defense secretary, Christopher Miller, adding alarm at the Pentagon over moves to stock the department leadership with loyalists."

    In last-ditch desperation, Trump would invoke a Judy Wood 9/11 style claim that energy beams from space-based weapons run by Democrats dustified ballots that were meant for Trump.

    Probably won't be able to rid our elections of the present method because those "discerning " voters of Kaintuckee done elected McConnell back in there. Yee--haw.

    I think he is upset with her because she would not release CIA classified files on Hunter Biden & Joe Biden and anything else he wants to use against his enemies. Gina is one mean woman and most likely has a file on HIM!

    I called it weeks ago. Trump will fuck up the government and the country as much as he can before he leaves. He doesn't give 2 shits about democracy and he certainly doesn't give a toss about America. He is evil personified. The person who likened him to Hitler was bang on target.

    I give President Pussygrabber a 100 for being a big baby!
    A 100 for Total Denial.
    An A plus for just basically showing his ass! He gets bonus points for Giuliana and his INSANITY (which is so comical it seems like Mel Brooks is involved)!

    Postal worker changes his story about election fraud in PA.


    Postal worker withdraws claim that ballots were backdated in Pennsylvania, officials say.

    excerpt:

    "Republicans, eager to find evidence of wrongdoing to bolster Mr. Trump’s fiction that the election was stolen from him, circulated Mr. Hopkins’s affidavit and amplified it.

    Senator Lindsey Graham of South Carolina, the chairman of the Judiciary Committee, who has urged Mr. Trump to continue to fight the results of the election, sent Mr. Hopkins’s affidavit to reporters along with a statement that read in part: “I will not allow credible allegations of voting irregularities or misconduct to be swept under the rug.” He later acknowledged in a television interview on Sunday that the claims he circulated were unverified."

    So how did Rudy know about Four Seasons Landscaping? You don’t suppose that he happened to see it while he was going to the adult book store, do you?

    Latest is that Trump has been ordering Whitehouse staff to plow on with his 2021 Feb budget as if he has won. He has zero intention of leaving in January. Mark my words!

    In 69 days Trump will have to respond to (1) civil cases which could bankrupt him. (2) criminal charges which would result in serious prison time. Cyrus Vance is not farting around.
