How many Republican Senators will be LEGALLY sworn in to office January 4th?

Won't there be two less? Does that give an edge to the Democrats for 2 days so they can adjourn until January 21, 2021?
I guess Mike Pretence will have to be there to keep the balance to the right if Warnock and Ossoff win on the 6th and even after til Kamala becomes presiding President of the Senate?

Just curious!

Where's Willie?

99.98.97...3.2.1 Here I come, ready or not.
Now where is William Barr?
Has anyone seen Barr?
Is he still in the country?
I'm betting he's in Turkfuckistan hiding or in the baggage compartment of that big ol jet aeroliner, Areoflot just waiting at DUlles for the Trump Family extended vacation.

Here Willie! Here Willie! Willie, Willie, Willie. C'mon boy. Get back to work.

Has anybody here seen Willie?

SO-YOU-WANT-A-CIVIL-WAR-HUH

From Daily Kos:

Gee, ever stop to think what that really means?
In real-life terms, Proud Boi; not in those ‘God, Guts, and Guns” fever-dreams with which you normally frenzy yourself...
Married?
Your wife won’t be making those weekly, possibly even daily. trips to Costco, Starbucks, grocery stores or beauty salons, the malls, the beaches, the parks, etc.;
Ain’t gonna be no Hobby Lobby; no Chik Fil-A; no Beer Barn; no monster trucks or Stock Car races, no Indy 500, no ANYTHING.

WWPD? (What would Putin Do?)

Democrats need to start looking at elections as how and hat can be done to fix an election instead of relying on "Who are YOU gonna vote for?"

They need to figure out any way that an election CAN be rigged and take steps to stop that. It doesn't take a lot of science to figure ways to fuck up an election from an electronic standpoint. Why aren't we looking at all possibilities of that happening by the opposition?

Instead of spending billions to try to change the minds of the hypocritic, faux religious idiots on the right, let's make sure that NO outside interference CAN happen.

Registered Democrats outnumber Republicans by a wide margin yet most choose to stay home while Republicans go out and vote. And before we blame any third party (other than foreign interference) what the hell is the matter with people professing to be Democrats or liberals or progressives who DON'T FUCKING VOTE? DO they think they are entitled to something because there are more of them?

The polls can't be that wrong unless something else is in play. Nate Silver was right about his predictions basically all except 2016 and now this. He may be the most scientific pollster ever and if he's that wrong, twice on both recent presidential elections, I'm amazed, cynical and concerned (not to to be confused with a Collins' Type Concern).

Something's rotten and this ain't Denmark.

While an American Political Party that lies, cheats,

ignores the constitution, supports rapists, adulterers, deadbeat dads, loves racists and white supremacists, believes more in dictatorship, caters to nazis and the KKK, promotes fascism, hates women, minorities and immigrants, doesn't care whether Americans live or die during a Pandemic, wants Americans ignorant, is so obsessed with their own greed they don't care if Americans starve, won't pass a health care bill for Americans while trying to eliminate health care for over 20 millino so Big Pharma and Insurance can rake in more greed -

that same party has a major apoplectic fit over imagined vote fraud!
