Happy Safe Harbor Day!

The odds of a bloodless coup goes way down after today. Of course Mo is promising a Hail Mary, but without Larry and Curly, he is fighting a lost cause.

Another loss for Trump. He lost the hearts and minds before the election, he lost the votes on election day, he lost in the courts over and over, and today he has a loss on the calendar. It would have been less painful for him to have conceded a month ago.

1. Praying Alito & cronies don't do a last minute hail mary to save the fascists.

If it doesn't happen today, it will probably not happen, so waiting to hear the results with baited breath. So tired of having to think about the possibility of the unthinkable happening and our country being stolen by a right wing coup.

3. There is nothing conservative about trying to overturn an election.

This is fascism, pure and simple. We need to start calling it that.

I'm guessing it was Alito and Thomas (total fascists) vs. the corproratist repugs and this time sanity won.
