    "This is all a Democrat hoax, as soon as the election is over, COVID they'll stop talking about COVID"

    :: one week after the election ::

    Governors of deep red Indiana and Utah increase COVID measures due to spiking caseloads.

    ....annnnd Ohio as well now. There's more evidence that elected Republicans stopped downplaying the virus once the election was over than there is that elected Democrats stopped "upplaying" it.

    Yeah. I went to a military college... think Canada’s version of West Point, but I was an officer in the Air Force while attending.

    Needless to say we spent WEEKS reviewing and analyzing My Lai, and being taught that sometimes it’s expected to not follow orders.

    It’s amazing how many people have no idea that even happened.

    Most people don’t know it happened, but everyone should. The most fascinating thing is how much support that psychopathic pile of pigshit had. Never spent a hard night in jail, thanks to Nixon who would have pardoned Vlad Tepes III if he were American.

    Trump kneecapping Fox News on the way out wasn’t on my bingo card, but I’m okay with it.

    It’s like the climax of Reservoir Dogs, only funnier.

    and you can see all of his retweets on his profile. He’s obviously trying to poach viewers from Fox to go watch even more conspiracy laden news from OANN and Newsmax. They make Tucker Carlson look like Kronkite.

    Something I’ve been thinking about a bit is how current republicans who are weighing running for president in 2024 and how they might handle potential legal entanglements for Trump after he leaves office.

    Trump is teasing running again next term which I think has a really slim chance of actually happening. The best thing for current gop is to completely cut trump loose after he leaves office. But will they speak out against possible indictments afterward? Will they cry about political retribution or just let him go? The worst thing for them would be to have Trump in the mix again.

    I read it as people who tend to make more money have the ability to work from home and they're using that "tax" to subsidize lower income people who usually can't work from home and have been more affected by covid. I figured you'd be jacking it to the idea of taking money from someone who makes more and giving it to someone who makes less.

    Sure, it could be that. Or it could be discouraging WFH so all that office real estate in their portfolio doesn't devalue further. At this point Douche Bank merits no good faith consideration.

    First of all, you've completely misread my politics. Secondly, this is the wealthy desperately trying to shunt the responsibility for wealth inequality onto the middle class before people realize how good rich flesh tastes. The problem isn't that all the wealth is stacked at the top, no no, the problem is that office drones are no longer living up to their obligation to buy overpriced daily lunches, the scraps of which keep the poor from starving.

    BTW Biden is officially declared winner of Arizona.

    Biden is the president of the United States, period. Any act of trying to overturn that now is just treasonous whining.
