[Slain]

The way trump seems to admire and like all the worlds non democratic leaders opened my eyes to what he is about.

So how will the members of the armed forces be able to vote, let alone embassy staff and US citizens living and working offshore. How about the USN ships at sea and people working off shore on oil rigs be able to vote.
 

I had a conversation with a family member saying that mail in votes were not reliable. I have voted absentee ballot for the last 30 years due to service to my country.  I asked the question of what has changed, why is my mail in vote not reliable this Presidential Election?  Answer was the mass amount of mail in voting due to COVID.  Countered with "that is why is took longer to count and verify"  I hope US registered voters overseas can still vote by mail in the future without prejudice.

The suit just got rejected by the Supreme Court excellent!!

Womp womp.

 

45 lost. Get over it.

Curious to see what lame excuses the Trump ThaiVisa squad will have now....

It seems that unlike the repubs, the Supreme Court still believes the US is a democracy.

 

Sen Ben Sasse (R-NE) issued a statement (that will get him a rage Tweet from the impeached, beaten incumbent) that said:

 

“since election night, a lot of people have been confusing voters by spinning Kenyan Birther-type, ‘Chavez rigged the election from the grave’ conspiracy theories, but every American who cares about the rule of law should take comfort that the Supreme Court — including all three of [45's] picks — closed the book on the nonsense.”

texas head of GOP is barking about secession.

 

Some of 45's sycophants, like 'diamond & silk', are calling for a military coup.  I don't think those two clowns have standing with Gen Milley.

These idiots got dropped from Fox Nation and dissed by 45. What hold does he have over his supporters?

 

[Walker88]

Tonight is the White House Christmas Party.

 

45, through his spokespeople, has said 'he won't be coming down tonight'.

 

The guy is 73, but acts like 3.

It's his party and he'll cry if he wants to

From the BBC News website this morning.

 

https://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-55283024

 

The US Supreme Court has rejected an unprecedented attempt to throw out election results in four battleground states that was backed by President Donald Trump.

The lawsuit, filed this week by the state of Texas, sought to invalidate results in Georgia, Michigan, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin.

President-elect Joe Biden won all four.

The lawsuit was supported by 18 state attorneys general and 106 Republican members of Congress.

But in a brief order rejecting the bid, the Supreme Court ruled on Friday that Texas did not have legal standing to bring the case.

Secession? Rush Limbaugh floats a startling notion — then quickly backs off.

"Rush Limbaugh isn’t saying he wants the country to split into red and blue factions as a result of conservative fury over the election results. As he attempted to make clear Thursday, he’s just saying that other people are saying it.

 

“I know that there’s a sizable and growing sentiment for people who believe that’s we’re headed to, whether we want to get there or not, secession,” he said on his nationwide radio program. “Now, I didn’t advocate for it. I never would advocate for secession. I’m simply repeating what I have heard.”

...

“I actually think that we’re trending toward secession,” he said on Wednesday’s show. “I see more and more people asking what in the world do we have in common with the people who live in, say, New York? What is there that makes us believe that there is enough of us there to even have a chance at winning New York? Especially if you’re talking about votes.”

Texas GOP chair floats secession for 'law-abiding states' after Supreme Court defeat

The chair of the Texas Republican Party appeared to float secession after the Supreme Court shot down a lawsuit led by the Lone Star State seeking to overturn the results of the presidential election.

 

Texas GOP chair Allen West rebuked the high court in a statement, saying that "law-abiding states" should "form a Union" after the decision throwing out the lawsuit from Texas.

 

...

 

The court’s ruling, which said that Texas lacked the legal right to litigate over how other states conduct their elections, represented a devastating blow to efforts by President Trump and his allies to challenge the election results.

Thanks.  Looks like Trump and his gang are considering other options beyond SCOTUS.
