Well, he IS flat-out blackmailing the Secretary of State in that call. I don’t know what else to call him at this point other than a criminal.
The full hour, just in case you've run out of true crime shows on Netflix: https://www.washingtonpost.com/vide...9426f4-7937-4718-8a8e-9d6052001991_video.html
Conservatives are already going with the old canard of the 4 minute excerpt released by the Post being "edited" and therefore invalid. Listening to the whole thing I can see why WaPo edited it; there is so much fucking whining. Minutes on end of Trump just monologuing about his rallies and fucking Twitter trends. WaPo edited it just to keep it listenable.
Anybody watching the Georgia senate runoff election? So far, the Democrats are ahead of Loeffler and Perdue. https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2021/01/05/us/elections/results-georgia-runoffs.html
Yeah, but from what I hear that is expected due to early voting that was heavily Dems. It’s expected that the R’s will come back somewhat... just don’t know if they’ll pull ahead. I think it’s going to be a nail biter.
It'll be a nailbiter but Dems are currently outperforming their November results, which is a good sign.
In other news, the leader of the Proud Boys got nabbed for that banner burning a few weeks ago. Would be little more than an inconvenience charge, except the dumb fucker literally admitted to cops he was in possession of, and planned to sell, magazines that are illegal in DC. Talked himself right into a felony.
Dave Wasserman (@Redistrict) Tweeted: Here's the story right now: 1. Black turnout looks, frankly, phenomenal. 2. Perdue/Loeffler are approaching Trump %s of the vote in a lot of deep red rural counties, but turnout there isn't anything special. 3. It's getting harder to see a path for either R, but esp. Loeffler. If this is the case, I'm going to enjoy watching McConnell kiss the Senate president's black ass for at least two years. He's a fucking cancer and I can't wait for him to be politically irrelevant.
