GET OUT: US politics November 2020

Slate has a pretty okay piece on how the Trumpist "Stop the Steal" protestors are actually delivering all the street chaos & anarchism that the Biden/Harris ticket was alleged to foment...

Honestly it’s such a constant stream of projection from the right. When will the media learn to stop reporting it as “Trump/Republicans accuse Democrats of x” and start reporting it as “Trump/Republicans confess that they are actively doing/planning x”? They could have gotten way out in front of this story instead of only coming around to it now.

Second Chance
38 Special
Since you've been gone
I feel my life slippin' away
I look to the sky
And everything is turnin' grey
All I made was one mistake
How much more will I have to pay
Why can't you think it over
Why can't you forget about the past?
When love makes a sound babe
A heart needs a second chance
Don't put me down babe
Can't you see I love you
Since you've been gone
I've been in a trance
This heart needs a second chance

feel the Full Flynn Pardon caress your skin

can't get Flynn on other charges then? shame. would have been so ironic after what he said about Hilary.
Like if he did 10x what Hilary did he'd just go free? LOCK HIM UP.

Some lawyers say Kelly and Parnell should have challenged the constitutionality of this law, passed over a year ago, long before votes were cast in this presidential election.

Good of them

They finally found themselves a hanging judge.

what did the fucking SC do last night

They said religious people can keep the human die-off going, which I approve of in theory. Mixed results in practice.

look here: U.S. Supreme Court: Post-Ginsburg Edition

Quite literally the most insane yet predictable bullshit I could possibly imagine.

" I think my son and his grandson are elementary-school classmates? Maybe?"

can you get your son to beat the fuck out of his grandson?

Elsewhere in the report, it’s stated that Trump is also trying to push through a regulation that would exclude transgender people from federally funded homeless shelters and loosen water-saving standards on showerheads—a personal grievance the president has frequently railed about to rally crowds.

Next up, low-flow toilets.

How the fuck is this press conference with Trump sitting at a tiny desk like a 2nd grader a real thing

"Don't talk to me that way. I'm the President of the United States. Don't ever talk to the president that way," he said.

otoh, he said he'd leave if the Electoral College voted for Biden.

His generosity of spirit glows incandescently.

Sidney Powell, the lawyer recently distanced from the Trump campaign, on Wednesday filed typo-filled lawsuits in both Michigan and Georgia alleging election fraud.

The suits alleged problems linked to voting machines, mail-in ballots and former Venezuelan President Hugo Chávez, according to Bloomberg. Powell repeatedly made the accusations without providing evidence while she was a member of the Trump campaign’s legal team.

The new suits also included allegations about forged ballots and observers being unable to watch vote tabulation, Bloomberg reported.

President Trump and his allies have repeatedly alleged that the election was riddled with widespread voter fraud without providing any evidence.

Both of the cases filed by Powell were riddled with typographical issues.

The case in Michigan had a number of formatting problems that removed spacing between words, Bloomberg reported. In the Georgia suit, the word district was misspelled twice on the first page of the document: There was an extra c for “DISTRICCT,” and then it was spelled “DISTRCOICT.”

typos for “district”? no, no, no, the lamestreamers are missing the point, again:

an expert in stupidity speaks

Yes, why is it that people suddenly don’t want to believe the known con man?? Hmmm.

Scott Adams is profoundly stupid. Also water is wet, as it turns out.

was just coming here to post that. pwned by his own appointees.

was that the judge who agreed to hear whatever today or is this a different thing

separate. the injunction was automatically stayed by the appeal to PA's Supreme Court, and they will likely act quickly and smack it down

xxpost cue Trumper saying this case was "always meant to fail in lower court" and that now it's headed directly to SCOTUS. because a way to get cases heard in SCOTUS is to file weak, frivolous cases and present them badly with sharp rebukes from lower judges regarding their legitimacy.

Which case was it where the judge ordered them to also pay Pennsylvania's legal fees?

This photo accompanies a Politico story with the headline "'He's always had a plan': The inexorable rise of Jake Sullivan" and now I'm wondering exactly when he rose inexorably from his grave.

ugh, i can see why he's gotten far in public life. when he enters a meeting room and pulls out paperwork everyone must just be like "let's get this done as quickly as possible, whatever sullivan wants. for fuck's sake that guy is a depressing ghoul - just do whatever he asks and get it over."
