Just burn the olive branches already. Republicans are getting the gang back together for one last hurrahthey may not succeed in stealing the election but they're sure as hell going to kneecap the incoming Biden administration.
The conspiracy cooked up by Donny Dons, Billy Boy Barr, and Mitchy Mitch has no basis in reality, but putting the country's national security and overall well-being on the line sure is fun. For starters, the General Services Administration plans to continue withholding a letter that would allow the Biden transition team critical access to government resources. COVID-positive White House chief of staff Mark Meadows was apparently feeling well enough to tell Politico that GSA chief Emily Murphy planned to continue her unprecedented denial of federally certifying the results of the election until at least Friday. A GSA spokesperson even compared the entire situation to the contested 2000 election, saying the agency would "abide by, and fulfill, all requirements under the law and adhere to prior precedent established by the Clinton Administration in 2000.
As if Trump's loss was somehow dependent on the results of a single swing state rather than the handful of swing states where Biden has either already won or is maintaining his leads. But sure, in Donald Trump's fantasyland, it's just like 2000.
In the meantime, Attorney General Billy Boy and GOP Leader Mitchy Mitch put their heads together to go all in on Trump's delusionsanything to lift the spirits of the Dons. In the absence of even a single credible allegation of voter fraud, Barr went ahead and authorized federal prosecutors on Monday to investigate any "substantial allegations" of irregularities just in case. Who knows, Rudy G might still cook up a little something. Stay tuned for his next destination presser nestled somewhere between that fantasy sex shop and an outward-bound crematoriumeither way, it's an otherworldly experience.

(31,096 posts)This is the kind of thing I keep saying and people still resist it a little.
That my comment is surely an exaggeration? Surely they care something about our nation, our security etc?
Nope, nothing. They care about and on a daily basis do commit crimes of corruption like we cant fathom.
NOTHING else matters to any of them.

(1,648 posts)Why do Republicans immediately spout illegal voters (never mind it always turns out to be mostly Republican) that is on a much smaller scale?
Because they are still PROJECTING with another layer added in... They are also distracting from the Republican Election Fraud they are always committing to steer the media and press focus on a very tiny issue.
It is time for the Democratic Party to grow some balls and begin playing hardball with the Criminal Cabal allowed to operate with impunity in this country for decades. Instead of listening to the outsiders directing Democrats to begin infighting on what their message should be, they need to take a very hard look at voter precincts in this country and get answers for things that just don't add up or make any sense. Keep looking and once the evidence is exposed, the Republican Election Fraud can be finally stopped.
