The source of the classified intelligence that U.S. President Donald Trump shared with Russian officials in May was information Israel obtained after hacking computers belonging to ISIS, the New York Times reported Monday.

 

Quote

According to the Times, which cited a U.S. official, Israeli "cyberoperators" managed to penetrate an ISIS cell of bombmakers based in Syria a number of months ago.

 

Quote

According to the report, the information was so good that it allowed the United States to learn that the terror cell was working on explosives that could fool airport security by passing as a laptop battery.

 

Quote

The intelligence was shared at a meeting with Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov and Russian Ambassador Sergei Kislyak. The unnamed officials said Israel had previously urged the United States to be cautious with the information. The revelation that Trump shared sensitive intelligence with Russia raises the possibility that the information could be subsequently leaked to Iran.

 

Quote

In January, it was reported that Israeli intelligence officials were concerned that the exposure of classified information to their American counterparts in the Trump administration could lead to it being leaked to Russia and onward to Iran. The intelligence concerns, which had been discussed in closed forums, were based on suspicions of ties between Trump, or his associates, and the government of Vladimir Putin in Moscow.

"These two flags  represent the exact same thing. That certain people groups are not welcome here. So if Nancy  Pelosi wants to say that we're going to start shutting down First Amendment rights of a certain group of people, then what happens the next time that the homosexuals want to walk through an American city and protest and counter protesters come out?"

Steele Dossier played NO role in opening the Carter Page investigation. They began their investigation prior to even receiving it.

The DOJ did in fact inform the court of the origin of the Steele Dossier.

They accuse Nunes of deliberately misrepresenting the underlying FISA Warrant intelligence.

Four different judge's approved FISA warrants including judge's appointed by Bush and Reagan. Multiple DOJ officials also approved the applications prior to the court even seeing them including Trump appointees Rosenstein and Boente.

They actually started listening to Page after he left Trump campaign so the idea they were watching him to spy on Trump is absurd.

Page has a long history with Russia going back to 2004 and was being actively investigated once before already in 2013. The FBI had even interviewed him in 2016 again prior to receiving the Steele Dossier. The Steele dossier was referenced in the application as corroboration of certain things, and not to independently demonstrate.

A bunch of blacked out additional evidence with a bit in the middle noting Page lied to the HIC in his testimony in 2017 about meeting with Russian officials.

It included the footnote that discusses the Steele dossier source which SPECIFICALLY STATES ..."The FBI speculates the the unidentified U.S. Person was likely looking for information that could be used to discredit Candidate #1's campaign." Candidate 1 is Trump I believe, edit I previously thought Person 1 was Steele, this is the person coordinating with Steele. Steele is Source #1.

DOJ timely informed the court when the FBI fired Steele and why.

The attacks on Bruce Ohr for knowing Steele/and his wife working for Fusion GPS are 100% baseless. He was not involved in the FISA process and disclosed his relationships in November 2016.

Basically Nunes and Gowdy lied whole cloth that the FISA warrant was primarily based on a news article and the Steele Dossier. Those were in fact the least used and most minor pieces of evidence and they picked them out specifically for that reason to discredit the investigation and lied about their use.

The F.B.I. on Monday raided the office of President Trump's longtime personal lawyer, Michael D. Cohen, seizing records related to several topics including payments to a pornographic-film actress. Federal prosecutors in Manhattan obtained the search warrant after receiving a referral from the special counsel, Robert S. Mueller III, according to Mr. Cohen's lawyer, who called the search "completely inappropriate and unnecessary." The search does not appear to be directly related to Mr. Mueller's investigation, but likely resulted from information he had uncovered and gave to prosecutors in New York. "Today the U.S. Attorney's Office for the Southern District of New York executed a series of search warrants and seized the privileged communications between my client, Michael Cohen, and his clients," said Stephen Ryan, his lawyer. "I have been advised by federal prosecutors that the New York action is, in part, a referral by the Office of Special Counsel, Robert Mueller."Click to expand...

In early December, President Trump, furious over news reports about a new round of subpoenas from the office of the special counsel, Robert S. Mueller III, told advisers in no uncertain terms that Mr. Mueller's investigation had to be shut down. The president's anger was fueled by reports that the subpoenas were for obtaining information about his business dealings with Deutsche Bank, according to interviews with eight White House officials, people close to the president and others familiar with the episode. To Mr. Trump, the subpoenas suggested that Mr. Mueller had expanded the investigation in a way that crossed the "red line" he had set last year in an interview with The New York Times (https://www.nytimes.com/2017/07/19/us/politics/trump-interview-sessions-russia.html). In the hours that followed Mr. Trump's initial anger over the Deutsche Bank reports, his lawyers and advisers worked quickly to learn about the subpoenas, and ultimately were told by Mr. Mueller's office that the reports were not accurate, leading the president to back down. Mr. Trump's quick conclusion that the erroneous news reports warranted firing Mr. Mueller is also an insight Mr. Trump's state of mind about the special counsel. Despite assurances from leading Republicans like Speaker Paul D. Ryan that the president has not thought about firing Mr. Mueller, the December episode was the second time Mr. Trump is now known to have considered taking that step. The other instance was in June, when the White House counsel, Donald F. McGahn II, threatened to quit (https://www.nytimes.com/2018/01/25/us/politics/trump-mueller-special-counsel-russia.html) unless Mr. Trump stopped trying to get him to fire Mr. Mueller. The December episode, which has never been publicly reported, has new resonance following the disclosure on Monday that F.B.I. agents had carried out search warrants (https://www.nytimes.com/2018/04/09/us/politics/fbi-raids-office-of-trumps-longtime-lawyer-michael-cohen.html?action=click&module=Top%20Stories&pgtype=Homepage) at the office and hotel room of Mr. Trump's personal lawyer, Michael D. Cohen. In that action, the Justice Department seems to have walked directly up to -- if not crossed -- Mr. Trump's red line by examining something that seems unrelated to Russia.

North Korea drops withdrawal of US forces as condition of denuclearization, Moon says (https://amp.cnn.com/cnn/2018/04/19/asia/north-korea-us-forces-korean-peninsula-intl/index.html)

North Korea is being awfully giving.  

I wonder if something is going on.  

Sounds too good to be true

Sounds too good to be true but peace would be really really awesome.

In late April, North Korean leader Kim Jong Un and South Korean president Moon Jae-in made a historic deal to end Cold War-era division. The two countries announced that they will pursue signing a peace treaty and work towards "complete denuclearization" of the Korean Peninsula. (R ight now it's uncertain to what degree North Korea plans to get rid of its nukes.)

During the summit, Moon reportedly handed Kim a thumb drive containing a plan to build a massive railway. The preliminary plan envisions a train line that would pass through Seoul to Pyongyang in the North, then moving further on to Kaeseong and Shinuijuin, North Korea.

The ultimate plan, estimated to cost $35 billion, is much more expansive. It calls for another high-speed line from Seoul to Shinuiju via Pyongyang, along with a retrofit of six other railways crossing through North Korea.

North Korea has freed three US citizens from prison, according to a tweet from US President Donald Trump.

It is viewed as a goodwill gesture ahead of a historic summit between Mr Trump and North Korea's Kim Jong-un.

Mr Trump said he would greet the men when they return with Secretary of State Mike Pompeo, who has been in Pyongyang to arrange the planned talks.

Kim Hak-song, Tony Kim and Kim Dong-chul boarded the plane "without assistance", the White House said.

They had been jailed for anti-state activities and placed in labour camps.

Quote

Who are the freed Americans?

Kim Hak-song was held on suspicion of "hostile acts" in May 2017. He had previously described himself as a Christian missionary who intended to start an experimental farm at the Pyongyang University of Science and Technology (PUST)

Tony Kim, also known as Kim Sang-duk, also worked at PUST. He was detained in April 2017 on espionage charges. According to South Korean media, he had been involved in humanitarian work in the North.

Kim Dong-chul, a pastor in his early 60s, was detained in 2015 on spying charges, and was then sentenced to 10 years hard labour.

Kim, Kim and Kim was released by Kim. How wonderful!

Just watched a bit of the Kavanaugh hearing and my blood is already boiling. Is there a single republican in existence who isn't a complete and utter disgrace? How on Earth do half of Americans support these people?

Colour me surprised. The Republicans in this hearing are a joke but it doesn't help that the Dems are mostly being really incompetent. I guess the republicans keep winning because even though a lot of them are despicable, a lot of the dems are just useless at fighting back.

Dems don't like to lie and play tricks, as much. They keep trying to compromise and reach a middle ground.

But Republicans don't want to compromise.

The increase in early voting is pretty massive over the last midterms, especially in Tennessee. That Taylor Swift effect  :o

Yeah.  
Usually older people are reliable voters, and they tend to vote Republican.  

If voting is up, it's more than likely because younger, more liberal voters are actually voting.

More people voting is always a good thing, no matter the result.

I don't understand why some people vote so early though. New events could change your mind yet you wouldn't be able to change your vote.

Will be interesting to see how things go.

Well some people vote early because they aren't able to vote on election day.  
I know I missed voting one day earlier this year.  

Early voting is great. Colorado has had early voting open since 2 weeks ago though. Some people definitely need those 2 weeks but it feels like there is an unnecessary push to get people to vote as early as possible.

Who gives a fook if there's feminists here. You can do all these things in the game so there's no problem doing it. If it's a problem then the reviewers should slaughter it.

Btw i find it extremely disturbing you lot shoot and kill so many innocent people on rdr. Dispicable behaviour. Like these innocents are good men with family's and you kill them?

And when the online launches, surely you won't kill characters controlled by real people? Like these guys could represent little kids playing online. How could you possibly kill them?

It's a game from rockstar. Gta, rdr it's not real life folks. I'd never punch an annoying feminist in real life but in rdr or gta? Oh I can't wait.

There's a big difference between killing random NPCs without much thought and killing the same NPC over and over again in as many sadistic ways as possible to push an anti feminist agenda online.

Sure, I could understand just blasting the woman in the face because she annoyed you, sometimes I kill NPCs that have pissed me off in R* games to. But this really isn't that, it's much more serious and you should stop pretending otherwise.

First of all he's doing it to get YouTube views for money. It's obviously working as his channel blew up. Great business decision.

Secondly these things are all possible in a game. Not only that but other games focus on these very things. There are horror games out there that focus on horrible gruesome torture and there are games like hitman that let you replay a level over and over to try and kill the same people (not always deserving of death) in multiple different ways.

Sure on hitman last week there was some dude I had to kill and i drowned him the bowl of the toilet. You are over sensitive if this stuff triggers you.

"to push an anti feminist agenda online."

Who gives a fook if we annoy feminists. They are possible the most annoying group out there atm and deserve to be trolled. And this coming from a man who treats women with the utmost respect.

This is the biggest problem these days. People bringing their movements into games. That's fine but don't force it on everything. Especially not Rockstar games.

It's not their movement.  
It's a historical movement.  

But it's a game not a history lesson.

It's a game set in history.
They're free to put whatever they want in it.

If you can't play it without getting triggered, then you have the right not to buy it.  
You have the right not to buy it, just as they have the right to put whatever they want in it.  

Just as you have the right to buy it and do whatever you want with it. Including punching an annoying feminist in the face  :D ;D

This is the biggest problem these days. People bringing their movements into games. That's fine but don't force it on everything. Especially not Rockstar games.

As Pi is saying, it was a historical movement at the time. They put it in their mainly for story purposes, there's a couple of missions involving it which I thought were great. Otherwise, you can just ignore it if you want to.

I see where you're coming from though, and no doubt R* knew this would be seen as some sort of political statement. I like that they did it though, the story of suffragettes isn't know well enough.

Right, but don't be surprised if people call you a nasty person for acting nasty.  Which that person is.

And again, she's a suffragette.  She's not some random feminist screaming about men.  She was trying to get the right to vote.

The US started a war, because people thought they should be able to be represented.  

I suppose you bring up an interesting topic. Even though its just games I never go around murdering people. Even in GTA its just not something I've ever done, I don't enjoy it and it makes me feel bad.

That MW2 mission you mentioned, I didn't shoot a single bullet until we got outside and had to fight the armed police, I just sat back and watched in horror. Actually I seem to recall trying to shoot the other guys in the back the first time I did it but the mission failed me for doing that.

That being said, I'm not going to judge anyone who does murder NPCs in video games, it is just a game and some people find it fun.

Back to the topic of elections. I honestly can't help but laugh at all the stupid conservatives who are crying about corruption and what-not because there's still votes being counted. I mean seriously, it only took me a few minutes reading to find out how America's counting system works.

Postal ballots can be mailed in up until the day of the election, so a lot of them come in after and are counted later, like what's happening now. Some people are just ridiculous. Since when is making sure every vote is counted 'corruption' or 'stealing an election'. In every other developed country we'd call that basic democracy.

Oh and yes, one of those stupid conservatives claiming the Dems are trying to steal elections is none other than the oversized wotsit who sits in the white house.

And that's cool. You won't hear me saying "oh Xev he's such a nice guy, never once murdered someone in a video game".

Because I'd literally be mentally retarded and unbelievable naive to think like that. Some people play video games and like to escape from who they really are, some like to be who they are. But many like myself don't give a fook and just do whatever. It means nothing, but I do know one thing. If i can do something that might annoy somebody when it shouldn't, I probably will. And that's why i teabag on siege or write what a save x3 on rocket league after scoring a goal. It's also why I'd say I'll punch a lady on rdr2. Not that i hate ladies, but i hate the thought these rights campaigners can tell me what to do on a game i buy.

And it's very useful on games like RL & R6. All part of the mental warfare that can give you the edge.

I thought they needed to arrive by the election? Mailing date doesn't matter.

Mattis was originally going to leave on February 28 but I suppose someone explained to President chicken nugget that Mattis' letter trashed him on the way out.

 Trump was already feeling blowback on forcing out such a universally popular figure, now that he's outright firing him I can only expect that to get worse.   

Just a normal guy who can converse normally. Merry Christmas!

   WASHINGTON -- In the days after President Trump fired James B. Comey (https://www.nytimes.com/2017/05/09/us/politics/james-comey-fired-fbi.html?module=inline) as F.B.I. director, law enforcement officials became so concerned by the president's behavior that they began investigating whether he had been working on behalf of Russia against American interests, according to former law enforcement officials and others familiar with the investigation.

 The inquiry carried explosive implications. Counterintelligence investigators had to consider whether the president's own actions constituted a possible threat to national security. Agents also sought to determine whether Mr. Trump was knowingly working for Russia or had unwittingly fallen under Moscow's influence.

 The investigation the F.B.I. opened into Mr. Trump also had a criminal aspect, which has long been publicly known (https://www.nytimes.com/2017/06/14/us/politics/mueller-trump-special-counsel-investigation.html?module=inline): whether his firing of Mr. Comey constituted obstruction of justice.  Click to expand...    

Government loses vote by 202 votes to 432. Biggest loss for a government in UK history by 66 votes, ouch.

118 rebels is absolutely crushing for the tories, holy shame. Only 3 labour MPs voted for, that's nice.

So brexit is off?

In discussing concerns about Trump's attitude toward Russia, McCabe recounted on "60 Minutes" a briefing he received from a bureau official who had attended a meeting with the president. McCabe said the official described Trump siding with Russian President Vladimir Putin over American intelligence officials on the subject of North Korea's nuclear capabilities.

"Essentially, the president said he did not believe that the North Koreans had the capability to hit us here with ballistic missiles in the United States. And he did not believe that because President Putin had told him they did not. President Putin had told him that the North Koreans don't actually have those missiles," McCabe said.

"Intelligence officials in the briefing responded that that was not consistent with any of the intelligence our government possesses, to which the president replied, 'I don't care. I believe Putin.'"

People need to realize this point is moot: whether or not Trump is actively aware, and intentionally operating on behalf of Russia, he has still done more in two years to advance the agenda of this hostile foreign nation, to the detriment of the US, than any other person in recent memory.

We seem hopelessly entangled in answering the question of whether he's knowingly operating on Russia's behalf and have neglected the fact that he is actively aiding Russia and harming us egregiously in the process.

There is no circumstance where Trump ought not be immediately impeached for the things we have witnessed occur in plain sight.

He advanced a withdrawal from Syria - against all counsel of all relevant expers - to Russia's delight. No explanation for this was ever provided to the American people.

He has refused to enforce sanctions legally codified into law - and in some cases reversed standing sanctions. No explanation for this was ever provided to the American people.

He has denounced his own intelligence agencies in a press conference with Putin on election meddling - and publicly endorsed Putin's version of events. No explanation for this was ever provided to the American people.

He has conducted numerous completely private meetings and conferences with Putin, and has gone to great lengths to prevent literally anyone, even people in his administration, from learning what was discussed. No explanation for this was ever provided to the American people.

He has lied countless times about having business interests in Russia, which have been clearly and undeniably proven false in extremely public ways. No explanation for this was ever provided to the American people.

He pulled out of the INF treaty, which allows Putin to create missiles that can threaten Europe with impunity, whereas before, there would be sanctions and severe penalties for doing so. No explanation for this was ever provided to the American people.

At every step, he has handed Russia enormous concessions with no justification. He takes Putin's word - a notorious liar - at face value, always, above all of his own countrymen, and even the people he himself hired to lead his agencies.

Now let us also remember, Russia is nothing compared to the US. The US has infinitely more muscle than Russia. This is why the policy - right up until Trump - has been to deal with them through sanctions and military conflicts where necessary.

They agitate, they hit and run, but Russia is an organized crime state whose economy is nearly collapsed, whose leadership consists of a coalition of loosely allied kleptocrats, oligarchs, and billionaires, all of whom are just as likely to knife each other as their foreign adversaries.

Had Clinton won, she would have continued her policy she advanced at the State Department, and sanctioned Russia until Putin's government imploded from the stress of Putin's brutality and kleptocracy. Which, obviously, is why he pulled out all the stops to ensure Clinton did not win the election.

The evidence is unambiguous. Trump - for reasons we do not know but ought not really care - betrayed, is betraying the US to Putin's Russia, each and every day.

So, I ask - why do we care whether he's a card-carrying Russian agent enthusiastic about the cause, a victim of blackmail, a seeker of quid pro quo, or just a really gullible imbecile?

He is clearly and transparently committing treason right out in the open. He has sacrificed our security and our interests to advance Russia's. Ignorance is not an excuse here. Let the courts sort that out, but this is far and away grossly impeachable behavior, and a level of embarrassing and humiliating subservience the likes of which have never been witnessed from an American leader on the world stage.

And let's not forget - let's always footnote talk about Trump's treason with the fact that this is just one of MANY separate, discrete, and unique massive, impeachable scandals. On top of pursuing the agenda of a hostile foreign nation, he also committed numerous acts of campaign finance violation, stood behind and refused to condemn nazis and white supremacists, publicly attacked private citizens and the media, condemned his own agents and agencies for legally investigating him, told nearly ten thousand lies about things ranging from serious to extremely mundane, appointed his own family members to positions far above their capacity (breaking many ethics laws and vetting procedures to do so and get them clearance).

And the list goes on. Seriously, it goes on and on and on and on. I could exhaust myself listing out the oaths Trump has betrayed, the crimes he has committed, the many more crimes he has probably committed, the constitutional amendments he has attacked or condemned, all of which, in and of themselves, should warrant impeachment or serious scrutiny.

The last President was impeached, by Republicans, for one - one - count of perjury, about a meaningless sexual exploit. Which was an actual example of a perjury trap, by the way, wherein the prosecutor gets the defendant on the stand, on the record, for a crime - in this case, the Whitewater investigations into Clinton's real estate dealings, and then questions him about something embarassing but irrelevant and not illegal, compelling the defendant to lie and commit perjury to prevent embarassment.

That's what Republicans thought qualified a previous President for impeachment.

And now we come to Trump, who has a list of genuine impeachable criteria so long I legitimately can't remember all of them in one go. of these things. All of these individual scandals or crimes or gross acts of idiocy demonstrating severely compromised judgment and ability to execute the powers of the office.

And then you add actual treason on top of it. A violation of America and its interests not only inconceivable in its treachery, but to a far, far, far weaker adversary.

So what the fudge is he still doing in the oval?

 @AOC Just left the 1st CBP facility. I see why CBP officers were being so physically &sexually threatening towards me. Officers were keeping women in cells w/ no water & had told them to drink out of the toilets. This was them on their GOOD behavior in front of members of Congress.

 @AOC Now I've seen the inside of these facilities. It's not just the kids. It's everyone. People drinking out of toilets, officers laughing in front of members Congress. I brought it up to their superiors. They said "officers are under stress & act out sometimes." No accountability.

Republicans out-voted Dems by 220k in 5 and a half hours in Florida, they hold a voted registration lead of 106k now. This is missing a few counties for election day numbers, Miami Dade included.

According to polling averages, any GOP+3 environment or bluer favours a Biden win in Florida.

If the current pace continues we're looking at total votes of:

GOP 4.41M (40.0%)
Dem 4.05M (36.6%)
NPA 2.60M (23.5%)

However the GOP hourly advantage is trending downards and this is missing some Dem favouring counties.So this will slightly overestimate the GOP lead. So yeah, good old Florida.

With each hour the end of day estimate gets better for Dems as while GOP still outvotes them, the ratio is getting better.

what is your source?  I'm not seeing live results on the web.

i just don't get how soo many american can vote for that garbage.

biden is screwed.  with mcconnel at the head of his senate majority he will resume is obstructionism.   nothing, not one god dang thing, will pass in the next 2 years.   if clarence tomas were to die in march 2021 mcconnel would hold his seat vacant for 4 years...

Mitch McConnell's Senate might be where the Biden presidency goes to die

It now looks likely that on Jan. 20 of next year, Legend Biden will become president of the United States. And after the inaugural balls are over that evening, he will take off his tuxedo, put on a scratchy jumpsuit and check into a prison cell whose keys are held by Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.).

For months, we've been contemplating a world in which Biden wins the White House and Democrats narrowly take control of the Senate. We asked ourselves if they should get rid of the filibuster (yes, they should) or grant statehood to the District of Columbia and Puerto Rico (also yes).

But we didn't spend nearly enough time contemplating what it now looks like will be the reality: a Democratic president and a Republican Senate.

We've seen this before, most recently in the last two years of Barack Obama's second term. But this will be far, far worse than it was then. We're about to witness something unprecedented in American history.

In 2014, McConnell became majority leader after Obama had already achieved most of his major legislative goals, including passing the Affordable Care Act. But now he has a chance to sabotage a Democratic president right from the start. Just as important, he knows that no matter how far he goes, the Republican Party is likely to pay only a small political price. What they get in return will be worth every penny and more.

As of now, Democrats lost one Senate seat and gained two, giving them 48. While it's theoretically possible for them to get to 50 given the races where votes are still being counted, it looks extremely unlikely. Which means McConnell will remain as majority leader.

What does that mean? For starters, you can take all those meticulously prepared policy plans (https://joebiden.com/joes-vision/) Biden and his team devised during the campaign and toss them in the trash. There will be no expansion of health coverage, no aggressive legislation to address climate change, no move toward universal child care, no increase in the minimum wage, no new Voting Rights Act and no infrastructure spending. None of it.

Nor will there be a new stimulus bill to help the economy recover from the pandemic, since McConnell knows that Biden will be blamed if the economy continues to struggle. At most -- and even this is no guarantee -- McConnell may allow continuing resolutions that keep the government open at its current funding levels. There will be no other significant legislation as long as Republicans retain control.

That's just the beginning. McConnell now clearly believes that conservative domination of the courts is his most lasting legacy. Between now and January, during Trump's lame duck period, McConnell and Judiciary Committee Chair Lindsey O. Graham (R-S.C.) will run a conveyor belt to confirm judges to every last open seat at every level.
And then the confirmation process will simply shut down. Forget about filling a Supreme Court vacancy if one occurs; McConnell won't permit Biden to fill any judicial vacancy. Not one.

"Oh, come on," you might be saying. "He'd never go that far." You don't think so? Just wait.

We're not done. The president gets to fill (https://www.washingtonpost.com/graphics/politics/trump-administration-appointee-tracker/database/?itid=lk_inline_manual_21) about 4,000 positions throughout the executive branch, and a remarkable 1,200 of those require confirmation by the Senate. What if McConnell and the Republicans just decided to confirm none of Biden's appointments? No secretary of the Treasury, no EPA administrator, no assistant secretary of the Interior for Land and Minerals Management -- none of them. We've already got all those bureaucrats, Republicans will say, why do we need to keep adding more?
Or at the very least, they'll tell Biden: You can have a secretary of State if you really want one. But we get to tell you who it can and can't be. First rule: It has to be a Republican. Take it or leave it.

Such a comprehensive stonewall would be unprecedented in American history. But McConnell has shown not just a willingness but an eagerness to violate any norm or rule if it serves his party's purposes and he thinks he can get away with it. He'll come up with some ludicrous justification ("No president whose election was decided when it was 52 degrees in Washington in a year ending in zero has ever had his Cabinet confirmed!"), then every Republican will dutifully repeat it, and eventually Democrats will stop complaining, because what are you gonna do?

Biden's presidency would then limp along pathetically until the midterm elections in 2022, when there would be at least a glimmer of hope. More Republican Senate seats will be up (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2022_United_States_Senate_elections) that year; I count six that could be vulnerable, especially in Pennsylvania and Wisconsin.

But midterm elections usually favor the opposition party. Are Democratic voters going to turn out in droves to help a president who has been unable to deliver on any of his promises?

Of course, this all depends on every Republican senator going along with McConnell's plan for the Mother of All Stonewalls. Which they will. They've shown again and again that they don't care what norms are violated -- if they can do it, they will do it. Just ask Justice Amy Coney Barrett.

Then in four years, Republicans will say, "Look what a failure President Biden has been! Democrats can't get anything done!

I wish I could say that the voters will rise up in outrage and cast them out. But right now it's hard to feel optimistic.

Of course he doesn't...

"We all know why Legend Biden is rushing to falsely pose as the winner, and why his media allies are trying so hard to help him: they don't want the truth to be exposed. The simple fact is this election is far from over. Legend Biden has not been certified as the winner of any states, let alone any of the highly contested states headed for mandatory recounts, or states where our campaign has valid and legitimate legal challenges that could determine the ultimate victor. In Pennsylvania, for example, our legal observers were not permitted meaningful access to watch the counting process. Legal votes decide who is president, not the news media.

"Beginning Monday, our campaign will start prosecuting our case in court to ensure election laws are fully upheld and the rightful winner is seated. The American People are entitled to an honest election: that means counting all legal ballots, and not counting any illegal ballots. This is the only way to ensure the public has full confidence in our election. It remains shocking that the Biden campaign refuses to agree with this basic principle and wants ballots counted even if they are fraudulent, manufactured, or cast by ineligible or deceased voters. Only a party engaged in wrongdoing would unlawfully keep observers out of the count room - and then fight in court to block their access.

"So what is Biden hiding? I will not rest until the American People have the honest vote count they deserve and that Democracy demands."

Trump Team Holds News Conference Outside Drab Landscaping Firm, Next to Adult Book Store



On Saturday morning, shortly before the AP and other news outlets called the election for Legend Biden, President Donald Trump took to Twitter (https://twitter.com/josh_wingrove/status/1325088747675922432) to announce that his lawyers would be holding a "big press conference" in Philadelphia. But there seems to have been some major confusion about where it would be held. First Trump tweeted it would take place at the "Four Seasons, Philadelphia." Trump later corrected himself and said that the news conference was going to be held at the Four Seasons Total Landscaping. And the Four Seasons Hotel sent out its own tweet (https://twitter.com/FSPhiladelphia/status/1325102014964109312), making sure everyone knew that the news conference would not be held there but rather at the landscaping business that has "no relation with the hotel."

When journalists arrived at the site of the news conference, they were flabbergasted by the scene and many quickly speculated that someone in the Trump campaign made a serious mistake (https://twitter.com/SlexAxton/status/1325141204418191361). After all, the parking lot of a landscaping business in the outskirts of the city in an industrial part of town was a drab backdrop for a news conference by a president who wanted to convince Americans he still had a chance of winning. And making matters even stranger, the landscaping business was between an adult bookstore and a cremation center. The location led to lots (https://twitter.com/pattonoswalt/status/1325132671140327427) of mockery online (https://twitter.com/SlexAxton/status/1325141204418191361), and many people (https://twitter.com/sfiegerman/status/1325117371422543874) were very happy (https://twitter.com/VaushV/status/1325156185595543560) with the scene that was ripe for mockery (https://twitter.com/Evanryt/status/1325089489530859526), and some saw as a poignant metaphor (https://twitter.com/justinsink/status/1325088574769868803) of the failure of the Trump campaign.

Fun facts about Texas. 

Texas has their own energy grid to avoid federal regulations. 
Despite many warnings to winterize their stuff, they did not. 
Natural gas saw the most issues.

Yet Republicans are politicizing the event to blame the Green New Deal which never happens, wind turbines which are also used in Antarctica for freezing in cold weather. B

you should never expect a republican not to blatantly lie.

wind turbines and gas turbines are both run in Alaska and can function just fine when built for winter.   texas just simply built their entire energy infrastructure to drive prices down.  those price reductions came at not investing into appropriate precautions for events like this.  republicans won't pay for an ounce of prevention and they'll shift the blame for the pound of cure to democrats no matter how badly they have to lie.
