ANTIFA killed Heather Hyer

Protestors on the I-5 killed this 24-year old woman

Prayers for both.

Fuck your prayers. They are as useful now as they are for the school shootings.

And bullshit.

Nothing about a protest NO MATTER WHERE IT IS obligates some asshole to intentionally drive into a crowd.

It's homicide and you bloody well know it.

And I think that unless the McCloskeys are a lot smarter than they have shown themselves to be, there will be a trial. Given their profession, I would expect instead a plea deal - but whether there is a trial or not, they will have to plead guilty to something, as is appropriate.

ASTON VILLA uniforms are butt ugly.

You are butt ugly and you are killing America, you proud boy fascist fuck.

You are a disgrace to bipeds everywhere.

Go back to your swamp and drown in your feces like the Dixie traitor cowards you worship.

Gotta blame somebody!

He wouldn't recognize love of country if it bit him on the face, but since he doesn't care about love of country, only love of Trump, this is hardly surprising.

https://www.cnn.com/2020/07/05/politics/fda-commissioner-coronavirus-trump-cnntv/index.html

Trump claimed that 99% of all COVID-19 cases are "totally harmless."

The FDA Commissioner refused to back him up and with good cause.

It is about as bold and blatant a lie on this as any he has told since he first claimed it would disappear when we had only 15 cases.

How much death can such a claim cause? I think incalculable.

An overnight camp (that should never have opened) has closed because of an increase in COVID-19 cases among campers and staff.

Mobsters and Rapists against Trump will start airing adds soon.

For a guy with such obviously defective genetics, it’s a bit ironic that his only bastion of steady support is among eugenicists.

Biden wins the popular vote, and carries the key swing states of Arizona, Wisconsin, Michigan and Pennsylvania by decent but not overwhelming margins.
Trump immediately declares that the voting was rigged, that there was mail-in ballot fraud and that the Chinese were behind a plan to provide fraudulent mail-in ballots and other "election hacking" throughout the four key swing states that gave Biden his victory.
Having railed against the Chinese throughout the campaign, calling Biden "soft on China," Trump delivers his narrative claiming the Chinese have interfered in the U.S. election.
Trump indicates this is a major national security issue, and he invokes emergency powers, directing the Justice Department to investigate the alleged activity in the swing states. The legal justification for the presidential powers he invokes has already been developed and issued by Barr.
The investigation is intended to tick down the clock toward December 14, the deadline when each state's Electoral College electors must be appointed. This is the very issue that the Supreme Court harped on in Bush v. Gore in ruling that the election process had to be brought to a close, thus forbidding the further counting of Florida ballots.
All four swing states have Republican control of both their upper and lower houses of their state legislatures. Those state legislatures refuse to allow any Electoral College slate to be certified until the "national security" investigation is complete.
The Democrats will have begun a legal action to certify the results in those four states, and the appointment of the Biden slate of electors, arguing that Trump has manufactured a national security emergency in order to create the ensuing chaos.
The issue goes up to the Supreme Court, which unlike the 2000 election does not decide the election in favor of the Republicans. However, it indicates again that the December 14 Electoral College deadline must be met; that the president's national security powers legally authorize him to investigate potential foreign country intrusion into the national election; and if no Electoral College slate can be certified by any state by December 14, the Electoral College must meet anyway and cast its votes.
The Electoral College meets, and without the electors from those four states being represented, neither Biden nor Trump has sufficient votes to get an Electoral College majority.
The election is thrown into the House of Representatives, pursuant to the Constitution. Under the relevant constitutional process, the vote in the House is by state delegation, where each delegation casts one vote, which is determined by the majority of the representatives in that state.
Currently, there are 26 states that have a majority Republican House delegation. 23 states have a majority Democratic delegation. There is one state, Pennsylvania, that has an evenly split delegation. Even if the Democrats were to pick up seats in Pennsylvania and hold all their 2018 House gains, the Republicans would have a 26 to 24 delegation majority.
This vote would enable Trump to retain the presidency.

Criminal.

Glad you are amused.

I don't think that is what will happen, even with his claims.

 Trump’s death, from Covid or other causes, once ballots are printed and distribution begins in the swing states, would be an optimal outcome for the United States. Mitch McConnell being dragged straight to hell would also improve the political climate in this country immensely.
