Trump's campaign manager, Bill Stepien, held a press call just now. On Nevada, he said: "We know that late-breaking mail helps us in Nevada. We believe that all legal ballots are counted in Nevada, the president wins Nevada and we believe by a margin of 5500 votes." There are apparently tens of thousands of same day mail and provisional ballots in Clark County that lean heavily Trump.

I know I should be writing about the election, but I think we could all use some comic relief. The New Yorker has published an excerpt of Obama’s much delayed memoir, A Promised Land, and one particular passage cries out for deconstruction. The passage concerns Obama’s efforts to get the Affordable Care Act through Congress, both houses of which the Democrats controlled. Despite having grown up in Hawaii, I have never learned to sail a boat; it wasn’t a pastime my family could afford. Still, for the next three and a half months, I felt the way I imagine sailors...

Virginia was caught switching 100,000 votes fromTrump to Biden in Fairfax County. They claim that it was a "counting error" uh-huh https://twitter.com/themodalice/status/1323958224458936323 

Republicans had a better night than expected holding on to some of their House seats. At least two incumbent Democrats were ousted by GOP challengers, and more could come as many races are yet to be called. On the Democratic side, all four congresswomen of "the Squad" — Reps. Ilhan Omar of Minnesota, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez of New York, Rashida Tlaib of Michigan and Ayanna Pressley of Massachusetts — won reelection. Since taking office in January 2019, the lawmakers, all women of color, have electrified the progressive base thanks to their social media savvy but have also attracted controversy, most notably...

Ironic, isn’t it? This could be Trump’s finest hour. As befits the already awful year of Our Lord, 2020, the presidential election is going to come down to a nasty street fight of lawyers, public relations spin, and positioning involving four states. Donald Trump has won all four, and now he must successfully defend all four wins from the very mail-in shenanigans he (and all of us) predicted would happen months ago. This is flesh and blood people versus theoretical pieces of mail. The people must win this. Like many, as I was transitioning from supporting Ted Cruz in the...

Looks like Trump and his backers are going to have to fight this out.....The GOP Pontius Pilate's will do nothing to assist as they want trump gone along with his supporters...This going to have to be a street fight and it will get ugly! Some say this is a lost cause but those are the ones worth fighting...

Part of the challenge in controlling the coronavirus pandemic is in identifying and isolating infected people quickly – not particularly easy when COVID-19 symptoms aren't always noticeable, especially early on. Now scientists have developed a new artificial intelligence model that can detect the virus from a simple forced cough. Evidence shows that the AI can spot differences in coughing that can't be heard with the human ear, and if the detection system can be incorporated into a device like a smartphone, the research team thinks it could become a useful early screening tool. The work builds on research that was...

Fraud in Wisconsin ! Here’s the proof! More ballots cast than voters! 

If Trump held this 1 congressional district in Nebraska (Nebraska like Maine splits their electoral college votes by district), we would be having a completely different conversation right now. Trump could tie the election at 269 simply by winning Pennsylvania, Maine 2nd District and Georgia, Michigan and Wisconsin would not be needed. This is a suburban republican district that went hard for Biden and Trump lost it by 7 points. He won the District in 2016 by 1%. It would be such a punch in the gut if Trump pulls Pennsylvania out and loses 270-268 to Sleepy Joe.

We were assured that safeguards were in place!! WE HAVE BEEN PLAYED!!

Oregon just decriminalized personal useage of heroine and cocaine, but continues to ban their commercial scale manufacturing, distribution, and sale. How exactly is that supposed to work? Oregon voters just approved a ballot initiative which decriminalizes personal usage of small amounts of heroin and cocaine.However, it is still illegal to manufacture, distribute, or sell these drugs on a commercial scale.Therefore, people who use these drugs will still be getting them from illegal manufacturers, distributors, and sellers.Which means that the problems of contamination, unknown levels of potency, gangs, drive by shootings, etc., will still be possible.In order to get rid of these...

Los Angeles Lakers star LeBron James has been a very vocal and active part of the 2020 Election process. Just this week, he helped contribute more than $27 million to ensure that felons would be able to vote. On Tuesday, James spoke out once more – this time in response to a viral election-related video.

Spent considerable time on the phone with Richard Baris who has been up all night watching these votes. (I signed off last night thinking both WI and MI were secure!) 1) Baris thinks WI is legit, that the blue areas overperformed the way Cankles should have in 2016. 2) He thinks MI is suspect. Overcoming a 600,000 lead with utter top-end performance out of absentees? Baris recommends WH demand a re-canvass. Passed this rec along to WH. 3) PA: Baris thinks the Trump lead, especially in areas left to count, is insurmountable even for Philly Phraud. WH needs to be...

This is wild. One day after the election, the results are still pending and will likely depend on the rust belt. President Donald Trump holds a strong lead in the state of Michigan, but the city of Detroit and their mail-in and absentee ballots have yet to be officially tallied. In news that will likely cast further doubt on the election results, tens of thousands of absentee ballots arrived in large U.S. Postal Service boxes at the TCF Center in Detroit, Mich. on Wednesday morning at 3:30 am. The TCF Center, formerly Cobo Hall, is where the absentee ballots are...

Given the pathetic performance of the Democratic Party in Congressional races yesterday will Speaker Pelosi and Senate Minority Leader Schumer be challenged by members of their party when leadership posts are chosen?

Nevada officials announced they will pause releasing new totals for another 24 hours.Joe Biden currently leads President Trump by 8,000 votes.So election officials announced they will not release any more totals for 24 hours. It’s not clear how this helps the process.https://twitter.com/reviewjournal/status/1323984186215190529?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1323984186215190529%7Ctwgr%5Eshare_3&ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.thegatewaypundit.com%2F2020%2F11%2Felection-close-call-nevada-officials-announce-will-pause-releasing-new-totals-24-hours%2F 

6:20 AM OK, this is where we stand right now. The Democrats have a lead of about 7k in Wisconsin after a very suspicious wee hours dump of 160k votes from Milwaukee.... 8:15 AM Evil thought. If Trump keeps Pennsylvania and Georgia, but loses Michigan, Wisconsin, Arizona and Nevada, we would be one faithless Biden elector from a 269-269 tie and you couldn’t get more 2020 than that! 8:20 AM I have called Trump Trump Felix because of the good fortune that always attends him. Lets see if his good fortune holds before writing him off. 8:35 AM Hmmm. Nevada...

Votes for the presidential race between President Donald Trump and former Vice President Joe Biden are still being counted in Michigan, Nevada, Georgia, Wisconsin, Pennsylvania, Arizona and North Carolina this morning, but while it is unclear who will ultimately win, it's clear who the losers are. Going into election night, pollsters across the board (with the exception of Trafalgar) predicted Biden would wipe out Trump by wide margins in the swing states. They also predicted a Senate turnover to Democrats and substantial victories for the left in the House. That's not what happened, Trump over performed significantly and the bad...

Meet Arnon Mishkin: Democrat Political Consultant Who Will Determine Next President for Fox News The man who heads up the team election night ‘Decision Desk’ at Fox News has worked with high profile Democrats from Los Angeles to New York The Fox News “Decision Desk” has a reputation for being accurate, but that team is not without its associative bias. In fact, the lead on that team has worked with a notable Democrat political consultant who represented Tom Bradley, Ed Koch, and Michael Bloomberg. Arnon Mishkin, 65, leads the Decision Desk team of statisticians, number crunchers, and political scientists who...

As I write this, millions of Americans are still voting. There is no way to predict what the outcome will be election eve, or if Americans will know the outcome of the election days or even weeks from now. It did not have to be this way. The GOP should have won in a blowout, and that they are almost certain not to is a clear sign the Grand Old Party is in desperate need of a Grand Old Rebuild.  The lack of leadership and coordination by the Republican Party’s leadership on Capitol Hill and in “red” States across the...
