Still no concession, but lots of golfing and tweeting.

 


It has now been 12 days since he lost the election, and the lunatic in the White House still refuses to concede. It is now becoming more than just a running joke and an embarrassment for him, it is starting to become a very serious national security issue as well. 

With the COVID-19 pandemic raging out of control, the current administration is refusing to participate in a smooth transition of power to Joe Biden and his team. This is something that would make fighting the pandemic so much easier. But we have known from day one that Mr. trump and his minions do not care about fighting this pandemic.  

We are sadly now learning that he has not attended a COVID-19 task force meeting in over five months. And how could he? He has been spending his days since getting his ass handed to him, golfing, tweeting lies and far-fetched conspiracy theories, and basically making a fool of himself on twitter by admitting defeat and then denying it.  

At some point the people around him who supposedly care about him are going to have to have a serious intervention with him and demand that he steps down and accept defeat. All the shouting in the world from the right-wing echo chamber won't change the results of the 2020 election: 77 million people voted for Joe Biden and 72 million people voted for him. Joe Biden got 306 electoral votes and he got 232. That's it. I can't say this enough: It's over for him! 

John Yoo, Mr. Torture himself, and a prominent conservative lawyer, sees a very dim future for Mr. trump when it comes to these elections.

"He has the right to mount legal challenges, but we should be clear that these are Hail Mary passes we might think of in American football," Yoo, a former legal advisor to the George W. Bush administration, told CNBC's Capital Connection on Thursday.....

 ...None of these cases really look like they have a very high probability of winning," Yoo said. "On the other hand, I think that Trump has every right to and demand that all the states be sure about the votes, so that we all have confidence in the election. But I'll say, looking at past cases, these are very hard cases to prove and generally they don't result in changes in the votes totals on the order by which President Trump lost to Joe Biden." 

Yoo is not typically a Trump critic: a renowned constitutional law scholar and currently a law professor at Berkeley, he is known as a strong advocate of executive power and has previously advised the Trump administration on how to bypass Congress to enact its own policies. 

Yoo has authored works including the Torture Memos, which in the early 2000s gave legal justification for former President George W. Bush's use of torture on detainees following the 9/11 attacks. Members of Bush's own Justice Department later repudiated Yoo's arguments. His "unitary executive" theory argued that presidents have the authority to assert their power over independent government agencies. 

But there is no argument that enables the president to sidestep the Constitution once his term has ended as decided by the states' electoral votes, Yoo said. 

He then offered an answer to the question many have been asking: What if Trump refuses to ever concede?

"He may never concede; he doesn't have to concede," Yoo said. "The thing about the American Constitution is that it doesn't actually require the sitting president to do anything one way or the other. On January 20th, Donald Trump's term ends and Joe Biden's, I believe, will begin." 

According to the Twentieth Amendment to the Constitution, the candidate with the most electoral votes becomes president at 12:00 p.m. on January 20. The current president's term is therefore over on that day, just before noon."

  2. His behavior wouldn't be a big deal for, say, a blowhard ranting on the subway, or a Pig Person losing their shit at the window of the drive through, but the damn fool is still the president.

    What he has done relative to the covid situation should disqualify any Republican from holding any elected office for a generation, but it won't.

    The lack of action at the federal level right now will bring on a 9-11 worth of deaths each day in a couple of months.

    I just wonder that if this isn't enough to drive voters away from Republican candidates, what would be?

    Is there anything?

    Or are we permanently saddled with seventy million reprogrammable meatbags who will only believe what their cult leader tells them to believe, facts and reality be damned?

    And that isn't all Fergus' fault, it's the predictable result of decades and billions of dollars worth of right wing propaganda raising up an army of Pig People from whom they can harvest dollars and votes without having to be held to account for their atrocities.

    But now that the atrocities are piling up at an exponentially accelerating rate, what's to become of your garden variety Pig Person?

    Who will look out for their interests?

    Not Fergus, and not Mitch McConnell, and not the QAnonners that they have elected to congress.

    Who will do the boring work of making the government take care of the citizens when the citizens are dropping like flies?

    And there's the rub. The current programming in the meatbags tells them that no, there really aren't close to 200K new infections every day now, and there really aren't more than a thousand people dying each day from covid, so 40% of them are planning to gather their families together for Thanksgiving dinner, virtually guaranteeing that there will be an even more massive wave of infections that will start to overwhelm the hospitals in mid-December.

    This isn't a fun little game these fucks are playing. Those folks in the hospitals risking their own lives trying to keep the goddamn Pig People on this side of the sod are already at a breaking point.

    And they're dealing with more and more goddamn delusional Pig People who show up at death's door refusing to admit that they really have covid because they remain convinced that it is a big liberal hoax designed to hurt their cult leader.

    Fuck each and every one of you rat bastards who help spread these fucking lies and contribute to the goddamn nightmare those hospital workers are living through day after day now.

    There will be a reckoning over this.

  13. San Diego hit our target for incremental reopening of certain business and entities in September and just barely in October, coming in at a 4% infection rate. Our current rate is at 9%. That's one out of eleven. One person out of every eleven people tested has the virus. This is much bigger than the first surge in Spring.

    Still I see wingnuts toss about puns that they think are witty. Plandemic. Scamdemic. They have handles like masksdontwork or lockdownsdontwork. They routinely deny numbers of casualties claiming that the people died from other health conditions. They kvetch and vilify Governor Newsom.

    And as far as Biden's victory, they really do believe that it is a stolen victory. They have actual stories cooked up for each state about invalid or fake ballots, Trump ballots being destroyed, and who knows what type of rubbish they are selling.

    The Coronavirus Is Resurging Everywhere

    November 15, 2020 at 6:49 pm EST By Taegan Goddard 338 Comments

    Wall Street Journal: “In earlier surges, infections were concentrated in cities such as New York and Chicago, or populous states like Florida and Texas. Many of the outbreaks then were linked to travelers returning from overseas or so-called superspreading events such as conferences, weddings and rallies.”

    “Now, it is everywhere. People are becoming infected not just at big gatherings, but when they let their guard down, such as by not wearing a mask, while going about their daily routines or in smaller social settings that they thought of as safe—often among their own families or trusted friends.”

    “The number of confirmed cases is rising significantly in all but a few states… Most of the new cases are in the Midwest, which is experiencing a major surge. But even states and cities that had successfully beaten the virus down to low levels are struggling with rising numbers of illnesses.”

    Associated Press: “More than 11 million cases of the coronavirus have now been reported in the United States, with the most recent million coming in less than a week.”

    Peak corruption
    This from a comment on Zero Hedge (which I've checked as far as possible) shows the almost inextricable pervasiveness of the Swamp/Deep State hydra. What hope have ordinary patriotic Americans?

    Dominion (voting machines) serves 40% of the US market. It is in 30 states.
    - The state of Texas rejected the machines.
    - Smartmatic entered into an agreement with Dominion in 2009
    - Smartmatic is connected to Philippine voter fraud
    - Smartmatic is run by Lord Mark Malloch Brown who works for George Soros.
    - Brown chairs the Boards of a number of non-profit boards including the Open Society Foundation,
    - Brown chairs the Centre for Global Development.
    - Open society of course is owned by George Soros

    - Guess who owns Dominion? Blum Capital Partners, L.P. **
    - Guess who is on the board for the company? Richard C. Blum. **
    - Richard C. Blum is husband to Dianne Feinstein. ***
    - Nancy Pelosi's husband is also an investor
    - An aide to Nancy Pelosi, Nadeam Elshami, was hired by the Dominion Voting Systems
    - Dominion Voting Systems is literally listed on the Clinton Foundation website.
    - "The DELIAN Project: Democracy through Technology" is the title of the page.

    - Georgia Governor Kemp purchased machines after Texas and Florida rejected
    - Dominion Voting has a lobbyist name Jared Thomas
    - Jared Thomas was Governor Brian Kemp’s chief of staff and press secretary from 2012 to 2015
    - You must remember the Feinstein-Kavanaugh-Soros connections to understand the depth
    - Debra Katz (Christine Ford's lawyer) worked for George-Soros at the Open Society Foundation.
    - Debra Katz (Christine Ford's lawyer) also worked at Project on Government Oversight (POGO).
    - POGO is funded by Soros’s Open Society Foundation.
    - POGO is the the co-signer of the letter Diane Feinstein had on Kavanaugh.
    - Kamala Harris did not prosecute OneWest Bank for their fraud
    - Soros owned OneWest Bank.

    A word of warning for those that think the media decides who won an election.

    These "cooked up" stories are supported by over a thousand signed affidavits. This evidence will need to go through the court processes and, as per the Constitution, the final decision on the appointment of electors is up to the state legislators.

    There are also some pretty alarming claims being made about evidence of vote tabulation manipulation using election software, particularly regarding Dominion machines. These allegations are being made by Sydney Powell, who is a very serious lawyer not known for making unprovable statements about crazy wingnut conspiracy theories.

    There is going to be some earth-shattering news coming over the next few weeks.

    -----------------
    Trump should concede because he didn't win. Biden received the most votes in the most states that equal the most votes in the Electoral College. It's simple math:77 million is more than 71 million and 306 is larger than 232. Therefore, Biden won the election and Trump should concede. Maybe now you understand?

    Joe Biden got 10.8 million votes in the state of California (five million more than President Trump, who increased his 2016 vote total for the state by 1.5 million over 2016). Approximately 14% of Biden's vote nationally came from California

    Biden's California vote total is over 25% of the entire population of the state - including children, legal resident non-citizens, and illegal aliens.

    That's over two million more than Hillary got in 2016, and three million more than Obama got in 2012.

    Posts falsify ties between election tech firm and Democrats
    By ALI SWENSON
    November 10, 2020

    Byron Haskins, an Ingham County Board of Canvasser, reviews tabulator tape collected from Ingham County precincts following the Nov. 3rd election, Wednesday afternoon, Nov. 4, 2020, at the Ingham County Fairgrounds Community Building in Mason, Mich., while attorney Nina Beattie, an observer representing the Democratic Party looks on. (Matthew Dae Smith/Lansing State Journal via AP)
    As poll workers tallied votes from the U.S. presidential election, many social media users interpreted a clerk’s error in a small, Republican-leaning Michigan county as vote-rigging because it wrongly favored Joe Biden before being fixed.

    A week later, that misinterpreted mistake has snowballed into a deluge of false claims that Democrats have deep ties to Dominion Voting Systems, the company that supplies election equipment to Michigan and dozens of other states nationwide.

    Claims that House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, California Sen. Dianne Feinstein and the Clinton Foundation have interest or influence in Dominion are all unsubstantiated. But that didn’t stop tens of thousands of social media users from amplifying them on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram this week.



    Here’s what you need to know about the falsehoods spreading around Dominion Voting Systems.

    CLAIM: Prominent Democrats including Pelosi, Feinstein and the Clinton family have a stake in or a deep relationship with Dominion Voting Systems, the second-largest voting vendor in the U.S., whose equipment was used in several battleground states in the 2020 election.

    AP’S ASSESSMENT: False. Dominion made a one-time philanthropic commitment at a Clinton Global Initiative meeting in 2014, but the Clinton Foundation has no stake or involvement in Dominion’s operations, the nonprofit confirmed to The Associated Press. A former aide to Pelosi has represented Dominion as a lobbyist, but so have lobbyists who worked for Republicans. Claims that Feinstein’s husband, Richard Blum, holds a stake in Dominion are baseless.

    THE FACTS: When Michigan’s Antrim County initially reported a landslide win for Joe Biden in the U.S. presidential election, social media users grew suspicious about the Dominion election management system used to tabulate the data.

    As it turned out, Dominion was not to blame, according to the Michigan Department of State. “There was no malice, no fraud here, just human error,” County Clerk Sheryl Guy told the AP.

  63. It's over. AP reports:

    Republican leaders in four critical states won by President-elect Joe Biden say they won’t participate in a legally dubious scheme to flip their state’s electors to vote for President Donald Trump. Their comments effectively shut down a half-baked plot some Republicans floated as a last chance to keep Trump in the White House.

    State GOP lawmakers in Arizona, Michigan, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin have all said they would not intervene in the selection of electors, who ultimately cast the votes that secure a candidate’s victory. Such a move would violate state law and a vote of the people, several noted.

    “I do not see, short of finding some type of fraud — which I haven’t heard of anything — I don’t see us in any serious way addressing a change in electors,” said Rusty Bowers, Arizona’s Republican House speaker, who says he’s been inundated with emails pleading for the legislature to intervene. “They are mandated by statute to choose according to the vote of the people.”

  68. Stop me if you have heard this before.... from USA Today

    Giuliani claimed to possess evidence supporting his claims but declined to share it on air.

    "We have proof that I can’t disclose yet," he said.

    He similarly promised to produce proof at a later date during past interviews about the Russian interference investigation, Trump's impeachment and his accusations against Hunter Biden. In each of those cases, he either never ultimately produced the evidence, or it was less compelling than promised.

    The former New York City mayor made several false and unfounded claims about the presidential election, including the false conspiracy theory that some voting machines switched votes from Trump to Biden, and the false claims of vote-rigging in key swing states.

    “It’s way beyond what people think,” Giuliani exclaimed, saying that he wished that the Trump campaign’s allegations be “investigated as a national security matter.”

    The Trump campaign has filed election lawsuits in states across the country, some of which remain ongoing while others were dismissed outright.

    In a tweet Sunday night, Trump downplayed the failed lawsuits and vowed the "big cases showing the unconstitutionality of the 2020 Election" and "the outrage of things that were done to change the outcome" will "soon be filed."

    These people are delusional but then again trump started his term trying to distort reality. I mean in the first briefing the first thing was his press secretary yelling at us about how his inauguration was the biggest when by all objective and observable metrics it wasn't. We have to just throw away all measurements we used to rely on because they offend the snowflake-in-chief. This reminds me of the Twilight Zone movie when everybody had to kowtow to the child with magical powers. This should have informed us all that we were in for some petty/crazy shit because what sane leader even cares if their inauguration was bigger or smaller than the last guy's? Not only that then go so far as to attack the Park Service for using the same observational tools they've been using for years to estimate crowd size. We have to believe the deep state went so far as to fake satellite pictures just to embarrass trump? I will say, he is one helluva conman, well then again he only fooled teh stupid.

    Arizona and New Hampshire have a Republican governor who will have to sign off on the vote certification. Would they allow Dems to steal the election and still sign off on the results?

  87. Our pet trolls aren't spreading accusations despite them being false; they spread those accusations _because_ they are false. The trouble with truth is that you can't double down on it. Also, truth is transpersonal; you can witness to it but you can't create it. Truth requires humility.

    Whereas lies are personal creations. When they're refuted you can then tell twice as big a lie. When it all collapses - which our unreality-creators know is inevitable - then they want as big a collapse as possible, to make them Important. But that too is a lie.

    Some call this a post-truth era. I beg to differ. Truth is not mocked. Some may try, but the joke's on them, and on anyone caught too close to them.

  103. From the trump DOJ NUMBERS.


    The offenders are mostly white: Whites offenders were responsible for 61.6 percent of all hate crimes where the race of the victim was known.
    The victims are mostly Black: 48.5 percent of hate crimes victims were victimized by the offenders’ anti-Black bias, more than any other racial category.
    It’s not just murder: Simple and aggravated assault by whites rose since 2018. while assaults by Blacks declined in both categories.
    Whites got more violent: Bias-motivated hate crimes against property actually declined among white offenders while the “crimes against persons” increased from 2,772 to 2,865.
    White people are victims, too: There were 666 incidents of anti-white bias, which only ranks below anti-Black, homophobia and anti-semitism in the total number of hate crimes. Zero white people died in 2019 as a result of anti-white violence.

    I might further add that “closing borders” really means “stopping legal travel into the US.” You cannot actually stop all illegal travel, as the US has a too-large-to-enforce, 3,000 mile border, so Republican attempts to endlessly fortify it are an pointless waste of gobs of money.

  120. From Snopes.... On Feb. 1, 2020, the day after Trump announced the restrictions, Biden tweeted, “We are in the midst of a crisis with the coronavirus. We need to lead the way with science — not Donald Trump’s record of hysteria, xenophobia, and fear-mongering. He is the worst possible person to lead our country through a global health emergency.” Biden didn’t mention the travel restriction specifically.

    In a May 2020 speech to the Asian American and Pacific Islanders Victory Fund, a political action committee dedicated to mobilizing voters in the Asian American and Pacific Islander communities, Biden called Trump’s response to the coronavirus “xenophobic.” He said Trump was responsible for “a new rash of racial messages, verbal and physical attacks and other acts of hate, some subtle, some overt, against the Asian American and Pacific Islanders.”

    Biden listed examples such as Trump telling CBS News White House correspondent Weijia Jiang to “ask China” in response to a question about the coronavirus she had asked him during a press briefing at the White House, and criticizing House Speaker Nancy Pelosi for visiting Chinatown in San Francisco to help boost business there.

    The Anti-Defamation League reported a rise in hate crimes victimizing Asians amid the COVID-19 pandemic, pointing to rhetoric from elected officials, including Trump, who referred to the disease as the “Kung flu,” among other racist terms.

    Michigan Senate Majority Leader Mike Shirkey (R) told Michigan Bridge that Joe Biden is the president-elect, and while the state’s Republican-led Legislature is investigating the election, it will not award the state’s 16 electors to President Trump.

    “Hundreds of activists who protested at the Michigan Capitol on Saturday repeated the president’s unproven claims of widespread voter fraud, urging lawmakers to ‘stop the steal’ by choosing their own pro-Trump representatives to the Electoral College.”

    Said Shirkey: “That’s not going to happen.”

    BREAKING: This evening, the county board of canvassers in Wayne County, MI refused to certify the election results. If the state board follows suit, the Republican state legislator will select the electors.

    7:30 PM
    -------------------
    Not so fast, Anon. Seems the Wayne County Board of Canvassers have adopted a motion to certify the results.

    After hours of public comment calling two Republican members of the Wayne County Board of Canvassers onto the carpet for voting against certifying Nov. 3 election results, the board Tuesday night changed course and adopted a motion to certify the totals.

    The vote was unanimous. It also included a resolution to have Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson audit the county's results to clear up precinct imbalances that led Republican Chair Monica Palmer and William Hartmann to initially vote no.

    GOP Canvassers Certify Results After Initial Deadlock

    November 17, 2020 at 9:34 pm EST By Taegan Goddard 77 Comments

    The Wayne County Board of Canvassers abruptly changed course Tuesday night and certified the results of the Nov. 3 election after initially deadlocking 2-2 along party lines, which could have delayed the state process for authorizing results, the Detroit News reports.

    In other happy news, Twitter announced that Trump will lose his immunity from following Twitter rules once he is no longer president.

    Therefore, I think it's safe to assume Trump's account is getting deleted on 12:01 pm on 20 January. Being unable to rage-tweet very possibly might kill him.

    No, there was evidence of poll watchers being kept 100 feet away from vote counters, but the court ruled since the law didn't specify the distance they had to be to actually watch the counting, 100 feet was ok. The vote was 5-2 along party lines.

    Next stop: The Supreme Court.

He has been doing everything possible to undermine confidence in democracy ever since his ludicrous birther campaign. This is what every autocrat who has gotten into positions of power in history has done on their way to becoming a dictator. It's necessary step one.

    It's clear the election was 100% fraudulent as elections always are. Now the Deep State is manipulating procedural outcomes to secure the result it wants.

    The most egregious example is Wayne County acknowledging fraud and then within an hour certifying it. But then, it's only Wednesday.

    Now sand is being thrown in the gears of the recounts. It takes days to do 1/10th of what took hours on election day, and votes are being "found" all the time. Anyone who buys the mainstream narrative just has TDS, whether left or right.

    But here's where it gets interesting.

    Giuliani has said that he's prepared to lose all his appeals to get it all the way to the SCOTUS. This is not a Machiavellian scheme, he believes in conservative principle. He has faith in the system. He is about to learn something.

    Conservatives are deontologists, they believe in principle. Get the principle right, and everything else will fall into place. No matter what happens, this election will leave that view in tatters. Let us look at some of the balls up in the air:

    Ball #1: SCOTUS declares president by legal fiat after lawfare

    This is Giuliani's great hope. But all it will do is underline that the electorate doesn't matter, SCOTUS is sovereign. This is of course nonsense. The jurist-priest is not sovereign, not today especially.

    It's clear that SCOTUS is just a rubber stamping factory for what the Deep State already wants, which is why legal realism exists as a concept. The Constitution has bent itself into exactly the shape of the prevailing ideology at every turn for 200 years.

    SCOTUS won't make rulings they don't expect to be enforced. Again, they aren't sovereign--the men with the guns are. So Giuliani is about to learn something; conservative faith in liberal institutions will be crushed.

    But if SCOTUS somehow *does* rule in favor of Trump, the GOP either gets behind enforcement--i.e. concedes that electoral politics is a mere formality--or it shrivels up and dies. Either way, liberal democracy loses.

    And that's if Giuliani even gets that far, which he won't. This is a huge win for the illiberal right. Almost better than Trump winning, which is only valuable in ratcheting up the pressure cooker--as an accelerant.

    Ball #2: Congress declares president by state electors after state ratification is obstructed

    If we have no president by Dec. 14th, state electors will cast a vote to determine POTUS. Very unlikely, but it would be the ultimate accelerant because they'll elect Trump.

    This is exactly the "Reichstag strategy" the left fears--that Trump will somehow "steal" the election and seat an Orange dynasty on the throne a thousand years.

    Should Trump somehow still be in office in 2021, the republic will deteriorate before our eyes within weeks. These eunuchs have been watching this movie for generations, and they will LARP at revolution, and someone will be crushed.

    Ball #3: Deep state declares president by nakedly manipulating procedural outcomes

    This is the most likely. 1/2 the American public thinks patent fraud means democracy is intact because democracy is just when the good guys win. The other half ain't so sure.

    If Biden is installed, the narrative will be that you, man in the street, cannot get justice by voting for it. The rot is too deep. Every one of your institutions has been beset by this rot. A solution is no longer possible playing by their rules.

    The time is ripe for the politics of personal loyalty to come back. Sovereignty works, unsurprisingly, like guns. Guns don't kill people, people kill people. Principles don't rule, people rule. A MAN. That is what you need.

    Liberal Democracy is a zombie. The question is whether it will be replaced by Caesar or Davos. Formal sovereignty or Covert manipulation.

    For Caesar to rise he must rise in defense of the republic against those who subvert and usurp its formal performance.
