This guy is a straight up traitor and should be tried, found guilty, then drawn, quartered and finally hung by his testicles.

hung by his underdeveloped testicles ...

There was along completely bonkers 9 step explanation of how Trump could thwart the democratic process and retain the presidency.  Mostly through competing electoral slates and Congress deciding things, with Pence in the mix.

There were two scenarios that branched off into Nancy Pelosi becoming President -- Trump and Pence past their expiration date, but no new president formally selected -- with one of those having two competing presidential claimants -- Nancy and Trump.

I didn't link it up because the whole thing started 2/3rds of the way down a DailyMail article following loads of pics of Rudy leaking black fluid from his cranium.
Will look for it.

Fox has picked a new enemy after the dead Chavez. Teachers unions for closing schools in the midst of a pandemic. Picking up on Trumpian ideas that say that children are immune and CV-19 disappearance is right around the corner.

Bambi pretends to be an Australian blockhead. That implies he’ll take his pounding and plug right along with the same smarmy smirk on his gob.

lol
'Blockhead'?
'Blockhead' = 'stupid person'.
Nah...I cannot agree with that.

That makes sense. You are too stupid to realize how profoundly stupid you are.

  Funny how you didn’t hear Republicans complain about “spending other people’s money” or ask “how are we going to pay for it?!” when they insisted on creating a $4 trillion leveraged slush fund for their Wall Street buddies in March.

Biden reportedly considering Rahm Emanual for Transport Sec.
What's Rahm going to do privatize the interstate highway system?

Smart guy but he's the poster boy for the corporatist Dems.
Was pretty much a disaster in CHI, where the police ran wild and mental health centers and schools were closed.

That's actually a good way to be, now that you've explained it like that.

In case anyone thinks of Emily Murphy as an honest administrator of a nonpartisan government agency,  it's worth googling Emily Murphy GSA FBI headquarters and look through the first few hits.   

Expect to see her before a congressional oversight committee, probably next week, as many election results are officially certified.

That's because you are a blockhead. And a credulous one, at that.

Why has that software company closed its briefcase and now won't let anyone look inside?

Because the accusers have already demonstrated that they are duplicitous. Those are the people accusing them of connections to the late Hugo Chavez, remember?

That petition begins by explaining: “As residents of Chicago—and as community organizers, local elected officials, union members and others who are all-too-familiar with his work—we are writing to un-recommend Rahm in the strongest terms possible. If you want to root out systemic racism, defend democracy, and build a society that leaves no one behind—all worthy goals mentioned in your victory speech—we can think of few people worse for the job than the man who earned the nickname ‘Mayor 1%.’”

Then it gets specific about “Rahm’s resume in some key policy areas”:

Covered up the police murder of 17-year-old Laquan McDonald in 2014. Laquan McDonald’s killing—police shot him 16 times, including while he lay on the ground—was a catalyst of the Black Lives Matter movement and doomed Rahm’s political future in the city.

Oversaw a police department that cost taxpayers more than $540 million for abuse and misconduct settlements during his time in office.

Closed 50 elementary schools—the single largest school closure in U.S. history—over an outcry from parents, students and community members. Most of the schools served African-American children on the south and west sides of the city.

Shuttered half of Chicago’s public mental health clinics, leaving patients in need of care literally sitting on the sidewalk outside of the locked doors and pleading for help.

Lavished wealthy neighborhoods and pet projects with public dollars through Tax Increment Financing (TIF). Rahm’s greatest TIF hits—this is an economic development tool that’s supposed to fight “blight,” mind you—include $55 million to buy DePaul University a new basketball stadium, millions funneled to Navy Pier through an elaborate shell game, and another $1.3 billion in subsidies for luxury mega-developments on his way out the door.

Repeatedly broke the city’s promises to rebuild public housing, while blocking an ordinance improving transparency in the mis-managed Chicago Housing Authority. The deficit in affordable housing, combined with staggering and deeply regressive property-tax hikes, were factors in the exodus of tens of thousands of Black residents out of Chicago during his term.

Hyped a failed plan to build an express train from downtown Chicago to O’Hare airport that would bypass the transit used by actual Chicagoans. The boondoggle, hatched by Rahm campaign donor Elon Musk, was widely panned; one alderman called it a scheme “mostly for tourists and Musk’s reputation.”

Rejected public referenda calling for an elected school board, instead hand-picking school CEOs such as Barbara Byrd-Bennett, who was sent to federal prison after pleading guilty on a multi-million-dollar kickback scheme involving Chicago Public Schools money.

Went on a privatization spree, to disastrous effect. Selling off everything from school janitorial services to trash collection, privatization left Chicago with indignities such as dirty classrooms and one of the nation’s most abysmal recycling rates.

Way too funny! This could have been about an SNL skit, but instead it is about Tucker Carlson's calling out Sidney Powell for her having made outlandish accusations about the election without evidence... and the backlash against him for honest reporting (for a change) from the Trump supporters and from Powell herself.

Donald Trump on how the drug companies punished him.

He assumes that everybody works the way he works.
