I let 6ix continue to be confused about why it is wrong to kill 2,000,000 people who don't deserve it and why it is also equally wrong to NOT kill 1 fat dumb fucker who does deserve it. Got to give an example:

The Deaths of 150,000 Americans Are on Trump’s Hands
Trump and his lackeys are guilty of criminal negligence, if not far worse. Who will hold them accountable?

This isn't an example of Americans being bloodthirsty. This is an example of Americans being cowards.

As is the overreaction to and giving up of liberties by the truckload to our government out of fear of a nearly non-lethal cold.

Do Right, Be Right. :)

I realize that Joe Biden just held a press conference where he basically dismissed the refusal of Trump and a lot of other Republicans to concede the presidential election to Biden as "embarrassing," laughing at SecState Pompeo who earlier today talked about a transition to a second Trump term, and said it will all be over and fine by Jan. 20. Maybe, but I am somebody who has taken seriously for a long time words from people like Michael Cohen and more recently Mary Trump who have said he simply will not go willingly and will continue to refuse to accept defeat. I have watched various commentators supporting him from time to time thinking, "Will they support him if he declares martial law?" Unfortunately, I think a lot of them will.

He certainly is laying the groundwork for making an attempt. The obvious such sign was yesterday's firing of SecDef Esper, reportedly because Esper made it clear in June he would not order US troops to move on peaceful civilian demonstraters in Washington. Rumor has it he is about to replace the FBI and CIA directors also. And the Undersec of DOD is also out. It certainly looks like he is trying to stock the top levels of the military and intelligence establishment with total toadies who will do his bidding. If he makes the move and invokes the Insurrection Act or simply declares a National Emergency, which, frankly, is in his legal power. Will these newly installed flunkies stand up to him? Who will?

I am seriously worried about this, and the more I see people like Mitch McConnell and Sean Hannity just spouting rank lies about the election, my concern grows. I hope I am wrong, but I am now afraid we may be facing a very serious showdown over this, and I see the refusal of certain foreign authoritarian leaders friendly to Trump, such as Putin, not accepting the result, as a sign that they would support him if he made such a move, and we know he really likes and admires those guys. This is a very bad situation.

Is Trump Going To Attempt A Coup?

He's trying to subvert a coup.

The Legacy Media, particularly the NYT and AP shouldn't have decided it was on them to call the election.

Lot's of stuff in court right now.

Trump’s legal challenges won’t change election’s results. The president’s efforts to contest the results “are unlikely to move a single state from [Joe] Biden’s column,” and that challenges in states like Pennsylvania and Wisconsin are “not enough to change the final outcome.” Trump campaign and its supporters have filed state and federal lawsuits, seeking to have ballots and entire county elections declared invalid, but have yet to provide evidence of widespread voter or election fraud. As MarketWatch reports, Trump and his backers have not won any rulings.

Here’s Why Donald Trump Will Never Give Up

What exactly are we witnessing here? Is this an attempted coup — a real effort by President Trump to cling to power despite the outcome of the election? Or is it a pathetic, doomed-to-fail tantrum by a petulant sore loser who will soon cave under pressure?

It’s neither. The real answer requires us to take seriously what so many of us have been saying all along: Donald Trump is nuts. To put it a little more conventionally, he’s such an extreme narcissist that he can’t believe he lost. He literally can’t believe he lost. So his brain makes up stories for him, and the only plausible story in the face of hard numbers is that his enemies cheated. So that’s what he believes. And he’ll believe it forever. There’s no more chance of changing his mind on this than there is of changing the mind of someone in an asylum who believes he’s Jesus Christ.

As usual, though, this leads us back to the real question: why is nearly the entire Republican Party humoring him on this? Since they aren’t collectively insane, the only answer is that they’re willing to sacrifice the public’s belief in democracy for short-term partisan gain. That isn’t nuts. It’s just despicable.

Can you recall which article of The Constitution specifies that the media is the authority to certify elections?

AFAIK recounts must be done where required or requested, according to state laws. Vote totals must be certified. There's a lot that has to happen before the voting is considered done.

Nothing like throwing down the gauntlet Bernie! But this bit is going to be disappeared in less than a day, as an inconvenient reminder that for all the times you took it in the @@@ for Hillary and Joe - you'll get NOTHING.

Because Joe is really NOT for the little guy.



And the same goes for Elizabeth.

The Biden administration faces major calls for reform and racial justice after a summer of protests decrying police brutality/systemic racism. Biden hasn't backed the defunding the police movement completely but is seeking to pass police reform legislation including a nationwide ban on chokeholds. If the GOP controlled Senate won't cooperate by passing laws, AND IT WON'T, Biden can do nothing. What BLM will do next is get angry at Biden, not realizing that it is the GOP that BLM should be angry with. Next step is for BLM to boycott Biden in 2024 because the GOP didn't pass legislation, which means BLM will defeat itself and help elect a Republican, maybe even Trump in 2024. And so the pendulum swings back to the GOP in 2024 or no later than 2028. It always swings back.
