That's pretty much what I said. I don't see a big effort to sink Trump but if they have solid evidence of crimes implicating Ivanka or Jr I don't think they could ethically not go after them.

What a statement Trump is making to the world, what an example he is making for our youth, what a pitiful example of a human being. If they ever need a visual for the definition of a sore loser, a sore sportsman, a big baby; well orange head is the perfect example. Then there is Rudy OMG, it’s almost sad to see him go off the rails and into some alternate reality. America first my arse, any of you supporters buying into this crap, still think he is concerned about you?

This is why, thankfully, Tweety’s strategy will fail

Arizona's Maricopa County Board of Supervisors has more Republicans defending our democracy's peaceful transfer of power than they currently have counterparts in the United States Senate.

Shocking most of the areas where Trump request re counts happen to minority communities? Why would that be?

I don't like the guy. Especially since he is a cowboy fan from NJ, but he deserves credit where due.

"I have been a supporter of the President's. I voted for him twice, but elections have consequences, and we cannot continue to act as if something happened here that didn't happen."
"If you are unwilling to come forward and present the evidence, it must mean the evidence doesn't exist," he went on. "The country is what has to matter the most. As much as I'm a strong Republican and I love my party, it's the country that has to come first" - Chris Christie

The faithful just cast people like him aside calling him a Rino

Or here’s another example Christie is just saying what ABC wants to hear. They don't pay him for honesty, they pay him to be a faux Republican.

Christie has sold his soul for a paycheck.

Stop the Steal!

What’s the saying you can’t argue with idiots

New York state has expanded its criminal fraud investigation into Donald Trump to payments that he made to his daughter Ivanka.

Some of those fees appear to have been paid to Ms. Trump. On a 2017 disclosure she filed when joining the White House as a presidential adviser, she reported receiving payments from a consulting company she co-owned, totaling $747,622, that exactly matched consulting fees claimed as tax deductions by the Trump Organization for hotel projects in Hawaii and Vancouver, British Columbia.

Oddly enough, Biden has no family members in his administration.

Scott I’ll do you legal research for you...

burden of proof

the obligation to prove one's assertion.

The Nation is still waiting


Here is some news Trump Legal Team Distances from Sidney Powell

noting that she did not represent the president, either as part of the team or in his personal capacity.

A tweet from President Trump earlier this month explicitly named her as part of the team, referring to her as one of his "wonderful lawyers and representatives" .

Behind the scenes, Trump is frustrated with his legal team's maneuvers.

"The president is concerned his team is comprised of 'fools that are making him look bad,' said one source familiar with the thinking."

Don't worry the Stable Genius has reinforcements flying in.........

Well, after the Deathstar failed they unleashed the Kraken that turned out to be a Krakpot.
Think of how fortunate we are that this assault on the Constitution and our democratic system is now resting pretty much in the hands of three grifting nincompoops, instead of the capable authoritarians the GOP will produce the next time.

The real irony is Trump fighting so hard to keep a job he really never wanted and clearly didn’t like to do. Trump xmas tradition might change this year, instead of opening one present Xmas eve, it will just be family pardons all around.

An Administration that tries to steal votes, preemptively pardon friends and relatives, and pour federal money into their own businesses isn’t an Administration. It’s a crime syndicate.

https://www.npr.org/2020/12/05/94322...ge-martial-law


The White House on Monday nominated O'Grady to be assistant secretary of defense for international security affairs at the Pentagon.

But in a review of his public statements, CNN found that O'Grady called former President Barack Obama and some military generals "sworn socialists" in a radio interview. On Twitter, he endorsed a tweet that called former Defense Secretary James Mattis a "traitor." He's backed multiple conspiracy theories, retweeting the baseless claim that Hillary Clinton and George Soros somehow helped facilitate foreign interference in last month's election.

On December 2, he retweeted an account that shared an article that said former national security adviser Michael Flynn had shared a petition that called for martial law. He then retweeted the same account which suggested that Trump should declare martial law.
"I don't know who needs to hear this," the account said, "But calling for martial law is not a bad idea when there is an attempted coup against the president and this country happening right now."


and republicans are worried Biden has MH issues or about Socialism
you got to be kidding

AG, homeland and republicans in states with supposed widespread fraud all say there is no evidence and sadly only 25 Republicans with a spine have agreed. The silence on the right in Washington and this board is amazing, to condone what is being attempted, means your right as a citizen for your vote to count is meaningless. Every past President has helped with the peaceful transition of power, knowing the security of our nation depends on it. It’s not happening now, because this ahole has NEVER even attempted to act presidential and it’s always been about the Trump brand and family money.

Rudy’s and Trump moving the goal post again seeing they are getting smoked in court they’re going for the Hail Mary which I think was the plan from the start,, such Patriots




I saw what the courts were doing and I wanted to go around them so the facts could get out," Giuliani told Sean Hannity on Friday night. "The simple fact is, we don't need courts. The United States Constitution gives sole power to the state legislature to decide presidential elections."


the conservative Wisconsin Voters Alliance: invalidating the entire presidential election in Wisconsin, and installing new electors chosen by the legislature.

Wow just to suggest such a thing is seen as Patriotic by Trump and his supporters but but be afraid

From Trump rally Trump states Very simply, you will decide whether your children will grow up in a socialist country or whether they will grow up in a free country."


99% of his base have no idea what what socialism is , they do actually anyone who doesn’t wear camouflage all year long is a socialist
