Well, the silver lining here is that rioting and looting after a peaceful protest is again considered not ok. it's sad that it took the storming of the US Capitol to bring that message home. :)

Hi Al, I hope you had a pleasant holiday ! The year can only get better, lol. Despite the alarmist media reports, the vaccinations are processing at a decent rate and will only get better. Maryland has a population of 6M and over 10,000 are being vaccinated every day. At that rate, which is only gonna get better, everyone who wants to be immune will be in about 8 months. With luck, deaths will drop to near 0 by the end of March.
As for the voting issues you cited - whether they are true or not, they would not have changed the outcome. Therefore nothing was stolen. If you want to win an election, the best approach is to nominate a candidate who is not inclined to storm the United States Capitol. :)
As for the republican party, we definitely agree, especially after what happened this week. And if it splits into two parties, the democrats will rule until the members of the new QAnon party decide to secede.
Hey Al ! Did anything interesting happen while I was on my break from posting here ? :)
And I'll say it again, if you're looking for a reason why Trump lost, it wasn't ballot shenanigans. It was his behavior as proven out over the past 6 weeks that so many people don't want in charge of our country.
Hey Al, We have people that were never slaves demanding money from people that never owned a slave.
Exactly. But we've all contributed to welfare, affirmative action, charities, etc. for the past 40+ years.
I call it "systemic generosity".
Pelosi should refuse to seat those MAGA traitors.
These "traitors" did what they did cuz of pressure from their brainwashed constituents. So their constituents need a dose of karma too.
Biden should be like "You want unconstitutional ? I'll show you unconstitutional !" lol and declare martial law in their congressional districts.
And then we can move on to punishing the BLM movement for their treasonous "defund law, order, and public safety" activities.
Hey Al - good morning - here's one more. The good news is that the idea of "Texit" has been around well before this latest election distraction.
https://www.khou.com/article/news/local/texas/texas-secede-texit-bill-legislature-2021-session/269-d1e5a05a-36eb-49c5-b205-a691ed8dec74
My money is still on the Pacific Northwest seceding first (in the 2040s or sooner). If this summer is any indication, they've already started to. And they don't Federal money or anything from Washington DC.
if Biden had any guts, after he's elected, he'd enact the insurrection act and declare martial law in those 100+ congressional districts. see how they like that.
well Ayock, they maybe out if their minds, but their not dumb. There are rewards for pledging alliegence to a strongman.
hey All,I just daw this , and its funny but it also shows where things are going.
https://news.yahoo.com/2-fake-states-trying-join-210316914.html
I do not believe that the Court will do that, because that would disenfranchise all of the legal voters in all of those states
Not to mention over 70 million votes in all the other states.
Hey Al, the only think keeping the US together is the trillions of dollars the Fed is printing .... and inertia.
The way the secession will happen is the core of the red states will form a regional cooperation agreement where they start by agreeing to enact some of their own laws, and selectively ignore Federal ones. Like the West Coast states are doing right now
At some point the Federal government will have to decide to impose its will or effectively let them operate as a "country within a country".
Besides the free federal money, the big thing keeping the West Coast states from doing this is where to create the boundary. Cuz as liberal as the coastal part of the West Coast are 100 miles east of the coast gets conservative.
And its the fight over boundaries is where the shooting will happen.
Hey Al, if you ask me, there's no coming back from this voter rule irregularity lawsuit. These 17 states are basically attacking the rights of the other 33 states. And they're saying the none of the votes (oddly just for president) in those 33 states dont count - because 4 of the states gave everyone the option to vote by mail during a pandemic.
Let's say the case is thrown out - as it will be - what working relationship to govern will the representatives from the 33 states that were attacked have with the representatives from the 17 attacking states ? Not much of one. And it will go downhill from there.
Let's consider it more of a divorce than a secession, lol.
Hey Al, so apparently Rush Limbaugh also suggested this latest act by the 17 states is a prelude to civil war. how about that ?
hey Al - that's the ONLY and BEST reason I've heard !!!
lol
Hey Al - Maybe just a conspiracy theory but-
I wonder if the election had nothing to do with this. Did the DNC wait until after the election-because they knew ahead of time Joe would win- so they could embarrass him into resigning and put Ms. Harris into office?
This is a lot easier to believe than the massive election fraud nonsense. So its not over thinking at all.
But I'm pretty sure these investgations wont implicate Joe or Jill. Just embarrass him.
The problems with making their case before the elections is they could not show how they were harmed by the legislation.
Right. They only have issues with them cuz they lost. That's not a legitimate reason to file suit against a law.
Hi Al, yes I heard he's claiming to be the victim. Don't get me started about China. In addition to rampant espionage, another never MSM mentioned fun fact about them: They are ONE HUNDRED PERCENT RESPONSIBLE for the global warming our planet has experienced over the past 15 years. Their CO2 output (60% of their energy is from coal) has gone straight up while the US and Europe has DECREASED by 15%.
Yet the liberals never seem to mention that.
By the way, Australia has gotten RICH selling China coal.
bbotcs - "When the 17-States secede, will they legalize slavery?"
You know I was making a joke relating this latest antic to the secession that occurred in 1861, right ?
But now to be serious - this lawsuit nonsense needs to stop. If these 17 Attorney Generals had issues with other states voting rules, they should have made their case BEFORE THE ELECTION - not simply target the states where Trump lost. This is a level of childishness that will permanently damage the republican party - or worse.
Hey Al, I guess I should finally confess that I believe there was concentrated vote manipulation ....
in Florida, where Biden should have been the clear winner. Clearly the only way the Republicans could have won Florida by so much was to create fake ballots and flip voting machine votes from Biden to trump.
So based on that reason, with no other evidence, I declare Florida's electoral votes should go to Biden.
there - I said it.
hey Al, remember when South Carolina seceded from the Union ? the history books will equate this with it.
17 states tell Supreme Court they support Texas bid to reverse Biden win
https://www.cnbc.com/2020/12/09/states-tell-supreme-court-they-support-texas-bid-to-reverse-biden-win.html
The only question I have is - when these 17 states secede, will they legalize slavery ?
Hey Al, sometimes the simplest explanation is the best one.
ok -- my laugh of the day ....
Jenna Ellis: Rudy, how do we get out of going in front of the US Supreme Court without it looking like we're giving up ?
Rudy: I've got an idea that will work ....
https://nypost.com/2020/12/08/trump-lawyer-jenna-ellis-reportedly-tests-positive-for-covid-19/
lol
lol. I guess the more over-the-top-crazy the claim is - the easier it is to believe ?
Soooo if the election was rigged - why does Georgia need a run-off election ? While they were at it, wouldnt the fraudsters have created enough votes for their democratic senate candidates to win too ?
Hey Al, you can fabricate ballots but you cant fabricate registered voters. Well not tens of thousands of them.
If Sydney Powell's performance wasnt enough for ya, here's the best reason yet to believe there wasnt much to the massive fraud story:
Ivanka Trump, Jared Kushner buying $30M lot in Florida
https://thehill.com/blogs/in-the-know/in-the-know/529194-ivanka-trump-jared-kushner-buying-30m-lot-in-florida
You can be pretty sure they didnt decide to buy it just a few days ago, lol.
Truck Loads of Ballots Coming Out of New York Reported Yesterday
Reminds me of all the false Bret Kavanaugh gang rape allegations that kept coming out of the woodwork .... when, you know .... when it became clear to the Dems the Christine Ford story alone wouldnt torpedo his confirmation. lol
I mean were these supposed ballots from New York for imaginary people ? Registered voters who had already voted ? There are controls over who can vote someplace. You cant just fabricate a bunch of Pennsylvania ballots and expect them to be counted.
Hi bbotcs, I hope this helps
Hey Al, its not exactly a counterpoint when it comes from the DOJ and the FBI. And then there's CISA, who was tasked to prevent any meddling in our election from hackers. They did their job and got this disgracefully (and hopefully illegal) comment on Newsmax.
https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/politics/elections/2020/12/01/trump-campaign-lawyer-digenova-says-ex-cyber-chief-should-shot/6475099002/
With lawyers like Giuliani, Powell, and now this scumbag Digenova, what does that say about their client ?
OMG and then there's this: https://www.yahoo.com/news/witness-trump-ally-sidney-powells-171916171.html
Barr: No evidence of fraud that’d change election outcome
https://www.yahoo.com/news/barr-no-evidence-fraud-d-191816984.html
Have ya ever spoken to a 911 conspiracy believer ? They refuse not believe stuff that's been debunked -- forever. And then they keep making stuff up so they can keep believing in it.
America’s hunters add up to world’s biggest army, a big protection against invasion
Yup - another reason to support the 2nd amendment - with maybe a few modifications - like cipher locks on the safety and paying "gun accident" insurance.
lol thanks for that feel good insight. The amount of surveillance we're gonna experience as technology improves is frightening. My joke about how the 2030 Census will be conducted: "Hey Google, how many people are there ?"
lol
Hey Al, Georgia is Ground Zero for the Creation of the U.S. Banana Republic
Is this cuz all the claims about voter fraud in PA, MI, WI, and AZ came up false ?
I admire the right wing's persistence. For 16 electoral votes that wont change the outcome. But I guess this is really positioning for the special elections occurring in Jan.
By the way, the GA Sec of State is defending Republican interests in the upcoming senate election.
https://news.yahoo.com/georgia-official-announces-investigations-defends-182234353.html
Hi bbotcs, if Giuliani's and Powell's press conference didnt do the trick, maybe this will.
https://apnews.com/article/fact-checking-afs:Content:9798361760
As for the future - we are on the same page. All this identity politics about discrimination and exclusion - in 10 years, the exclusion will be based on IQ. Unless you have an in demand trade or artistic skill, or are smarter than AI, or are exceptionally good looking or athletic, you will be unemployable.
I suspect that will be 30% of all americans at a minimum.
One answer would be to impose an AI "income tax". Meaning if you use automation to perform a job that used to be done by a person, the business has to pay income tax and SS withholdings equivalent to the number of people the automation displaces.
Otherwise we're in real trouble - like starvation trouble.
Trained people know this, do the lefties?
Maybe not instinctively, but the National Guard of states with democrat governors do.
And we'd better hope that lunatic fringe, who are probably armed to the teeth, doesn't go antifa. It would not be a bloodless nightmare.
Hey Al, I agree. But dont underestimate the radical left's ability to shoot back.
Hey Al, I hope you had a good and safe Thanksgiving. I'm sure you did a bunch of fall-get-ready-for-winter chores too like I did.
When you show the ENTIRE NATION what a nutcase you are, like Sidney Powell did, its not unusual to double down. You have nothing to lose.
And there's a lunatic fringe of several million people out there who believe her nonsense and I'm sure she'll find a way to extract millions of dollars from the.
Hey Al, well said ! I hope you have a safe and happy Thanksgiving up there !
Hey Al, just more proof that the voter fraud story line was just theater
Rudy Giuliani admits to exaggerating claims of voter fraud in Detroit
https://news.yahoo.com/rudy-giuliani-admits-exaggerating-claims-065554193.html
And sadly, at this point, it has to be described as a "con". Making his loyal voters believe something that simply isnt true. Sidney Powell played her part, and Giuliani played his.
And again, they never claimed fraud in any of their legal challenges. Just claims about small numbers of votes that would never change the outcome.
Hi Al, I haven't heard of any place by the Trump legal team to demonstrate the integrity of the voting machines or that they actually miscounted votes. Let me know if that's not true.
I also heard that no court case presented by the legal time claims massive voter fraud. That stuff is only said to the media.
I can only hope Trump's followers can figure this out.
Trump campaign legal team distances itself from Powell
Hey Al, just another sign that they're in the process of folding. Which I'm still expecting to happen today, even if they keep going through the motions for the sake of appearances.
https://www.yahoo.com/news/trump-campaign-legal-team-distances-010150495.html
But I predict that when this is over - Jenna Ellis will be a star. Kinda the lawyer actually educated version of Tomi Lahren, lol.
Hey Al, that's a great observation. Trump, by doing, what he's doing, could almost ensure we go "democratic socialist" over the next generation.
All to simply satisfy his megalomanic ego.
