That was a weak troll from child carter.

I wouldn't bite,  just wait for the troll to back up his weak jab with some evidence.   Then wait some more.   Followed by an extended period of waiting.   

Ambrose Bierce went to Mexico in the middle of the revolution, so his disappearance seems no great mystery.

I may feel a little irrationally exuberant today.

Second that.

A recount will change nothing, in either race.


Correct

They wish to avoid one nevertheless

Trump with the THREAT

"They defrauded us out of a win in Georgia - and we're not going to forget it"

PENCE on the hot seat.  What does he do if he wishes to run in 2024 and wants Trump supporters' backing?

Looking like Doug Collins vs Abrams in Georgia 2022 governor race.  That will tell if the tide did actually turn in the state.

I saw somewhere the theory that Biden would tap Garland as AG, opening up a key DC Appeals Court seat where Biden could slot in Ketanji Brown Jackson, 49, who clerked for Breyer, who she'd supposedly be replacing.  Biden has pledged to appoint a black woman to SCOTUS.  And elevating KBJ to the DC Appeals Court would up her resume.  Reportedly KBJ was on Obama's shortlist back in 2016.
The trick would be getting Breyer to retire int he next year or two.

Also, giving Garland a high profile gov't role can help remind folks of the Supreme Court steal the GOP engineered.  Keeping the base mobilized.  I don't know enough about Garland to say how he'll do as US AG, and he was portrayed as rather centrist, but he also has reason to have a bit of a grudge and disdain for GOP hyperpartisan BS.

Watching the Senate walk over to the House, it looked like Ted Cruz was enveloped in a gigantic out of evil.

Did Arizona's Dollar General off-brand version of Louie Gohmert object to the count of the vote for his own election?

He sent a letter to Congress stating he would follow the Constitution and take no action to interfere with or change the process, so there is the answer to that. And that there was any pressure on him to do otherwise tells you what a deplorable anti-democracy would be autocrat Trump is. You should be so proud of your support for him.

And that there was any question that he might do otherwise is a measure of how low the Republican party has sunk.

He didnt look like Louie, so I guess the answer is no.

News flash - not unexpected

PENCE has in a letter gone away from Trump's desire for him to challenge electorals.

"It is my considered judgment that my oath to support and defend the Constitution contains me from claiming unilateral authority to determine which electoral votes should be counted and which should not"
