SCOTUS was the job he really wanted in the first place.

Was this widely known? I had no idea, and I follow him on Twitter.

Carter was 80, not 76.

My modest libation.

And soon he’ll be evicted!

I just heard Kasich on NPR and he was telling republicans that they start to need to listen to democrats instead of just stupidly assuming they were dangerous socialists. Actually listening to each other instead of knocking down strawmen would be nice, though I’m not counting on it actually happening.

I cannot wait for the fucker to show up at his golf course in Scotland sans all his security bullshit. The locals are going to rip him a new one for sure…

I honestly no longer give two fucks.

I’ve been watching Fox today, to see how they are covering it. They’re playing it straight. Both the anchors (Baier and McCallum) and the guests have been repeating the same things:

  • Biden won (and they do call him the President-Elect occasionally)
  • Recounts deliver small changes, hundreds of votes, so they won’t change things
  • There is no “hard evidence” for any of the fraud claims, and even if there were, the margins are probably too large for them to matter

They are being complimentary to Trump (it is true that he got the second-most votes of any candidate in US history). They’re not saying he should concede. But they’re not disputing the result.

This seems like a positive sign. They’re not fanning the flames.

There shouldn’t be any balls. I’m serious. Joe should just take the oath, and then limo straight to the Oval.

Think of how many people couldn’t be with their loved ones as they died in COVID units, having to settle with Facetime at best. Or the millions of high school kids who had their proms cancelled. Or of all those one-in-a-lifetime events that so many people missed this past year. Weddings and funerals and long-planned vacations. Me not being able to see Tenet in the theater.

A ball would be a terrible, terrible, terrible signal to start off with. The country is in a time of deep crisis. Joe is the kind of guy who would totally cancel the parties.

BTW, Biden has added to his lead in Nevada by a small amount, and also in Georgia by a dozen votes I think…since the race was called.

If it tracks like yesterday, you’re watching their harder news segments. When they cross over to their “opinion” people, it’s going to be all hate, lies, and bile.

Representative Will Hurd, Republican of Texas, who is also retiring: “It’s time to come together. America has spoken and we must respect the decision.”

It’s time to put country over party and stop punching ourself in the balls.

COURAGE

Yeah, when Laura Ingraham and Sean Hannity get a crack at it…

FAKE NEWS!

Or rather, fake interpretation. They ring the church bells like that every day at 7pm.
