judge rules PA secretary of state had no authority to extend voting deadline

It would appear that the accusations of irregularities, were not completely unfounded. Likely nowhere near enough to change the outcome (Budens lead has grown), but are these things worth looking into? or should we pretend they don’t exist?

Trump just won the Pennsylvania lawsuit saying ballots arriving after election day can't be counted.

That sounds great until you realize these were previously set aside (and are not included in counts), there are less than 10,000 of them, and Biden is leading PA by 54,109 votes.
Meanwhile he’s playing games with National Security
Just what is his goal?

"may not count ballots where the voters needed to provide proof of identification and failed to do so by Nov. 9"


....but I'm sure you are ok with voting without proof of ID...


After the Pennsylvania Supreme Court ruled that mail-in ballots could be accepted three days after Election Day, Pennsylvania Secretary of State Kathy Boockvar submitted guidance that said proof of identification could be provided up until Nov. 12, which is six days from the ballot acceptance deadline. That guidance was issued two days before Election Day.

“[T]he Court concludes that Respondent Kathy Boockvar, in her official capacity as Secretary of the Commonwealth, lacked statutory authority to issue the November 1, 2020, guidance

Ahh the ID card argument do some research 34 states require voters to show identification at the polls in order to cast a ballot. PA is not one of them .

The constitution say you need an ID to Vote no

It’s all about voter suppression not having a secure election

Your boy Trump would cry fraud even if all states had voter ID and you would I am 100% certain you would stand with him. truth be damned

PS who push Voter I’d laws Republicans

Isn’t everyone supposed to run around Sky Screaming “Not My President”?

I thought that precedent was set 4 years ago.

I like how his lawyers made sure the remaining votes that "could" help cut into Biden's 54,000 vote lead can't be counted. This is the problem when you want some counting to stop and other counting to continue. Even the lawyers get confused.

No, no, no. we’re 30… 30, three zero.

If you still have crazy I've really lost my mind Rudy out front making your case for voter fraud, well you get what you pay for; I guess money is still tight in Trump world. Trump being the con man he is, is gathering election defense donations from the mindless supporters who have bought into his conspiracy theories.

Interesting choice of words. I understand why.


"I never claimed to be a journalist"
Sean Hannity
August 21, 2016 NYT

Asked...whether Fox considered Hannity a journalist, a network spokesman declined to answer directly. She would only allow that Hannity is “an opinion talk-show host.”

Scott you need to head over to Breitbart You’ll fit right in .


Donald Trump is Commander in Chief of the Pentagon until January 21, 2021

Do the Saturday Night Massacre thing right now. No delay.

Order the seizure of all ballots in WI, MI, PA, Georgia and NC. Bring them all back to the White House. Arrest all on-air talent at the TV networks and their CEO's beginning with Rupert Murdoch who is part of the coup.

Democracy is over. Trump rules or the communists do. It's one or the other.

Posturing aside, which is politics as usual, for this current administration to not help with the transition after a clear mandate by the voters is dangerous. With this virus running rampant again and our economy and national security tied to it, to not allow the Biden team access to key briefings and planning is a national security risk. The spoiled childlike behavior I expect from the thin skinned orange baby but it’s shocking so many Republicans are enabling this dangerous behavior.

No they are suggesting elected officials comment and their choice to defend Trumps claims of fraud to be used against them in the future . Aka elections only right wingers hear prosecution

Like the Biden rule was used to excuse Republicans for pushing thru Amy’s appointment

tell me again who plotted to kill a Governor or who mailed explosives devices from a van.


But what’s absent in all your responses is where you stand on Trumps massive fraud claims 11 days after the elections, seeing what has and hasn’t been presented and if you agreed with Trump should pull of Saturday night massacre.

Trump is showing his keen business sense, as law firms drop out and refuse to litigate these baseless voter fraud cases, which ironically nobody has stated in court; Trump hires Rudy who hasn’t been in court in 30 years. If your paying an old out of his element crazy lawyer $20,000 per day, it’s no wonder he has filed for bankruptcy so many times.

It would never had been his fault Trumps base cult love for him wouldn’t allow it.

They think he stopped NK a they Think he fixed Iran They think he showed China they think he helped farmers, they loved his spending the think he rebuilt the military. And now they think the election was stolen all because

Trump said so..

Yet they demand to be respected and listened to. Because in their Eyes they are True Americans And not costal elites

Even with that term their knowledge of Where states are is comical

Since when is NV NM CO MN MI IL and GA been elites

Still you have the 2 Dakotas plus WY and MT all getting 12 electoral votes combined plus 8 Senate seats for a combined population of a tad over 2 million while Ma has 11 electoral votes 2 senators and a population of 6.7 million , talk about every States getting a participation Trophy sad that 2 million people over 4 states have more say then one state 5million more Americans

Republicans won’t change it they won’t swap equatable when the have the Advantage

ask the democrats in the small
states if they want to do away with the electoral college, I’d sincerely be curious to know what they think.

wasn’t that long ago, when democratic presidential
candidates did just fine within the electoral college. the people in flyover country didn’t tell the DNC to march a million miles to the left, embracing late term abortions, open borders, student loan forgiveness, single payer healthcare, hating religion, reparations, green new deals, defunding the police, court stacking, etc...

if you want to embrace positions that people don’t like, there will be consequences. i hate to be the one to tell you.

They didn’t force Hilary to refer to them as deplorable and irredeemable. She put that in. scripted remark, it’s on her if people
didn’t like it.

here’s a shocking idea...since those people are americans too, maybe the dnc could adopt policies that are a bit more palatable to them.

Bill Clinton knew how to be everyone’s president. a good lesson for democrats and republicans alike.

the democrats will eventually run out of minorities to check off, and at some point they’ll have to nominate someone who will run on their policies, not their skin tone or genitalia.
