NO President has ever tried to dismantle the US Postal Service in order to block millions from voting by mail while simultaneously trying to take away healthcare from 20 million American's and INTENTIONALLY exposing thousands to a deadly virus.

Trump's Postal-Nasal solution.

He must be stamped out!

He's a postal-nasal drip!

Must be hard to live in one of the states he doesn't care about.

Plenty of "Trump people" in the blue states.

White House pandemic adviser appears on Russian state media, dismisses predictions about Covid-19 deaths in US
From CNN’s Marshall Cohen and Maggie Fox
White House pandemic adviser Dr. Scott Atlas gave an extensive interview to RT, the Kremlin-controlled state media network in which he asserted coronavirus lockdowns “are killing people,” attacked public health experts and dismissed models predicting hundreds of thousands more pandemic deaths in the US.

Atlas gave the interview via satellite from the White House grounds, according to the footage. He said the pandemic is improving in the US, even as daily case counts and death counts hit new records for the pandemic as a whole.

Atlas, who is a radiologist and who has no expertise in infectious diseases or epidemiology, also dismissed forecasts from the Institute for Health Metrics and Evaluation at the University of Washington School of Medicine that forecasts 399,000 coronavirus deaths in the US by Feb. 1 under current conditions.

“The IHME model is really sort – it’s absurd to start looking at this model at this point,” Atlas said. “At this point in time anybody who’s even focusing on models has not learned from the past.”

Atlas tweeted an apology Sunday.

“I recently did an interview with RT and was unaware they are a registered foreign agent. I regret doing the interview and apologize for allowing myself to be taken advantage of. I especially apologize to the national security community who is working hard to defend us,” Atlas said in the tweet.

All voters should have to show photo ID at voting centres before being given ballot papers.
Anything less and the integrity of the system is compromised.

There should be a National photo ID Card system.

My freshman roommate was George Lazenby's first cousin.    And he was, as it happened,  the most Bond-like person in our dorm -- hot German GF,  penchant for danger (rock-climbing mainly),  handsome,  and chose elegant methods of retribution (when I splatted his GF with a water balloon,  he later removed my jeans from their drawer,  soaked them and then froze them into a solid block in a deep freeze).   Fun times.

  The Texas supreme court has just denied a challenge to 127,000 votes cast via drive-thru in Harris County. Republicans have claimed in state and federal court that the votes should be considered illegal because voters used drive-thru polling sites.

The federal challenge remains and will be considered in an emergency hearing on Monday. Two previous federal challenges tried to block drive-thru voting, but this challenge seeks to void votes cast at drive-thru polling sites. 

Good decision.   Hope Monday goes the same.   No legal merit to the challenge whatever.   Just another try at undermining public confidence in the voting system.

Trump rallies turn off voters in the swing states. Big boon to Biden and the Democratic cause every time he hold one.

Only if there is an easy way to get the ID.

In many states, they make it very hard for disadvantaged folks to do so.

Not an option. I cannot force you to answer, jerk.

Very GOP-leaning judge on Monday. The hope is that he follows the law and not the politics, but it is hard to be sure what will happen.

However, this is exactly the kind of ploy that SCOTUS has complained about, where a party waits until the last minute to challenge something they could have filed against months before.
