    Georgia confirms Biden victory.


    Georgia set to reaffirm Biden's victory for 3rd time after recount, dealing major blow to Trump's attempt to overturn the results - CNNPolitics

    excerpt:

    "News of the recertification is a yet another blow to President Donald Trump, who has for weeks baselessly claimed a "rigged" election in the state and attacked election officials for not overturning the results in his favor. Monday's certification will lock in the state's results for Biden before the December 14 Electoral College vote, though Trump has continued to inveigh against Raffensperger, a Republican, and called for additional signature verification -- which is, at this point, procedurally impossible.

    "We have now counted legally cast ballots three times and the results remain unchanged," Raffensperger said during a press conference Monday morning. "Whether it is the President of the United States or a failed gubernatorial candidate, disinformation regarding election administration should be condemned and rejected. Integrity matters. Truth matters.""

    Inadmissable hearsay within hearsay is a succinct description of Trump's allegations.


    Michigan secretary of state says armed protesters gathered outside her home

    excerpt:

    "Trump and other Republicans have also filed nine lawsuits in Michigan, alleging fraud and other irregularities. As of last week, most of the suits had been withdrawn or denied. In one case, a judge described the allegations as "inadmissible hearsay within hearsay.""

    Article about safe harbor date.


    What 'safe harbor day' is and why it's bad news for Trump

    excerpts:

    "The safe harbor deadline, however, is something of a guarantee. If for example, a state legislature decided to send in its own slate, the law says the electors chosen by popular vote and certified by the governor must be counted by Congress from states that met the safe harbor deadline.

    Individual members of Congress could try to object and claim a state did not achieve safe harbor status. But states are nonetheless eager to meet the deadline. It was the Florida legislature's desire to meet the safe harbor deadline in 2000 that led the U.S. Supreme Court to rule, in Bush v. Gore, that the state had run out of time to conduct any further recounts."


    "Trump, his campaign, and Republican supporters have filed more than four dozen lawsuits since Election Day. But so far they have affected only a small number of votes in disputed state races. And no court has upheld any of the claims of fraud."

    Trump is once again saying big things will be happening to overturn the election.


    Trump says Giuliani 'doing well' fighting COVID-19, continues to contest election

    excerpt:

    "It was a rigged election. It's a disgrace to our country. It's like a third-world country," Trump said. "I think the case has been made, and now we find out what we can do about it. You'll see a lot of big things happening the next couple days."

    Sadly - I have to agree with you Egger. Trump gushes over Putin, Xi Jinping, and Kim Jung Un.

    So... These armed "protesters" that are threatening violence against elected officials for doing their job... Wouldn't they (guys with guns) be interfering with the election process?

    Why are they not in jail? It's obviously a federal offence.

    If REPUBLICANS can't win under long-established, existing laws - they change them so they can't lose. That is NOT DEMOCRACY. That is CORRUPTION at the highest levels, to create an authoritarian, 1-party rule. They don't want to allow the people to have a voice or a vote - unless it's for them = COMMUNIST Russia, COMMUNIST China, and COMMUNIST N. Korea.

    Because the REPUBLICAN PARTY has defended police unions (and I'm NOT against unions!!) - so in order to "repay their support", the police won't arrest armed mobs threatening elected officials if those mobs are siding with Trump and THE REPUBLICANS. Simple as that. Textbook quid-pro-quo .............. we'll protect your union from union-busting legislation - you protect our asses from violence or threat. CORRUPTION.

    But look at how police responded to peaceful protesters around the country marching for ending the shooting / kneeling on / otherwise killing of unarmed black men. THOSE crowds got shot with rubber bullets, beaten with police batons, and tear-gassed.

    You know ............equal justice under the law. GOD will have the final justice.

    Trump is considering a made-for-TV grand finale: a White House departure on Marine One and final Air Force One flight to Florida for a political rally opposite Joe Biden’s inauguration, sources familiar with the discussions tell Axios.


    So he can claim he had "record" ratings. No network will broadcast it but FOX and OAN. Also, I'm no expert but at that point he will not have access to Air Force One. It's a very expensive machine and for security reasons it must be available to the current president. By Biden's inauguration Trump is simply not be important enough to keep alive anymore. He gets the small team of secret service for the life not the snipers on the roofs anymore.

    ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

    He was actually 0-2 today because he also lost another challenge in Georgia

    So far 50 lawsuits filed 35 dismissed, dropped, or thrown out, the rest still pending or in limbo.
