I have but one question. Is there a way I can donate to her campaign now? Assuming, that is, that the rank but enjoyable speculation in this CNN piece is true. She and Jared are moving to Florida after Trump leaves office, partly because NYC clearly doesn’t want her anymore, partly because there’s a secluded ultra-rich area near Mar-a-Lago that’ll provide her family with privacy and protection, and partly because … she’s looking to get into politics, allegedly. Little Marco, though? Not rich. Viewed suspiciously by the base, especially MAGA types, for his “Gang of Eight” heresy on immigration. And...

Thursday, Senators David Perdue (R-Ga) and Kelly Loeffler (R-Ga) joined forces with the Georgia Republican Party and the National Republican Senatorial Committee in a federal lawsuit to “improve the reliability and transparency of the signature verification process.” This comes as “an effort to increase the integrity of the elections process ahead of the upcoming runoff for both U.S. Senate seats in Georgia,” according to the press release. The lawsuit “seeks to reaffirm these simple, non-partisan principles: every lawful vote cast should be counted, any illegal vote submitted cannot be counted and there must be full transparency and uniformity in the...

Hundreds of Hondurans trying to start a new caravan to reach the U.S. border were stopped by Honduran security personnel Thursday before they even reached the border with neighboring Guatemala. The Honduran police and immigration agents asked their countrymen to show travel documents and proof of negative coronavirus tests, which none appeared to have... The roughly 600 men, women and children had gathered Wednesday night in the northern city of San Pedro Sula and began walking along a dark highway toward the border with Guatemala. But as they approached the border crossing at Agua Caliente, the Honduran agents said they...

Thus said Hashem to Cyrus, His anointed one— Whose right hand He has grasped, Treading down nations before him, Ungirding the loins of kings, Opening doors before him And letting no gate stay shut: Isaiah 45:1 (The Israel BibleTM) ====================================================================== Not content with the traditional Hanukkah bash at the White House, President Trump held two parties celebrating the Jewish holiday on Wednesday night in the East Room. A lavish meal was served but the highlight was the selection of latkes, the traditional potatoes pancakes that (astronomically) symbolize the victory over the Seleucid Empire and the rededication of the Second Temple....

SCOTUS 9-0: Election Day Is One Single Day. Listen to oral argument from Foster v. Love (1997):If the state Legislatures would just sit down for an hour and listen to the oral argument in Foster v. Love, they would have such an easy time understanding their plenary authority was triggered at midnight after Nov. 3rd. (You may listen to the audio here.). Let’s examine some of the transcript:Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg: “It is an election, and it seems to me, being an election it conflicts with the Federal single Election Day.” You can’t canvass for days/weeks on end. As Justice...

In footage from the meeting in Vienna Friday, FPO General Secretary Michael Schnedlitz brings a glass of cola to the podium, from which he proceeds to collect drops to use on an antigen rapid test being used on a mass scale. The results of the test are described by independent German news site Reitscchuster.de (translated from German): After going to the lectern and starting his speech, the politician sprinkled a corona rapid test with a few drops of cola. Three minutes later the test showed a result: It was positive. So Coke triggered such a result. After demonstrating a positive...

Lin Wood - "Finally docketed in US Supreme Court!"

December 10, 2020 Second Week of Advent For you have been called to live in freedom, my brothers and sisters. But don’t use your freedom to satisfy your sinful nature. Instead, use your freedom to serve one another in love. For the whole law can be summed up in this one command: “Love your neighbor as yourself.” But if you are always biting and devouring one another, watch out! Beware of destroying one another. - Galatians 5:13-15 Dear Lower Susquehanna Synod Rostered Ministers: Over the past few weeks, the COVID-19 pandemic has continued to worsen. Yesterday 3,011 people died from...

"...It is perfectly ordinary and appropriate for the justices to write an opinion explaining the various reasons why they are rejecting Texas’ request. Indeed, the minority of justices who think that the court is required to accept original actions like Texas’ may well write short opinions of their own or note that they think the case was properly filed. So there is nothing overreaching if a majority of the court explains why the case is meritless." "The justices’ decision whether to do that needs to account for this extraordinary, dangerous moment for our democracy. President Donald Trump, other supportive Republicans,...

WASHINGTON — White House chief of staff Mark Meadows on Friday pressed Food and Drug Administration chief Stephen Hahn to grant an emergency use authorization for Pfizer’s coronavirus vaccine by the end of the day or face possible firing, two administration officials said. The vaccine produced by Pfizer Inc. and its German partner BioNTech won a critical endorsement Thursday from an FDA panel of outside advisers, and signoff from the agency — which is expected within days — is the next step needed to get the shots to the public.

Georgia senate candidate Raphael Warnock defended his support for abortion on demand Tuesday by declaring himself to be a “pro-choice pastor.” Conveniently, the Democrat candidate did not mention that this “choice” is to kill an unborn child. Nor did he, a pastor, mention that the Bible recognizes unborn babies as valuable human beings and condemns the shedding of innocent blood as one of the greatest of all evils. Warnock is challenging pro-life U.S. Sen. Kelly Loeffler in a high-stakes January runoff election that could determine the future of the U.S. Senate. “I am a pro-choice pastor,” Warnock wrote Tuesday on...

CNN’s @ddale8 fact-checks President Trump's falsehood-filled Supreme Court brief. https://cnn.it/3a2OYFO

A judge on Thursday dismissed the St. Louis prosecutor from the case against Mark McCloskey. A judge determined that improper fundraising emails by Circuit Attorney Kim Gardner's campaign infringed on the McCloskeys' right to receive a fair trial. Circuit Judge Thomas Clark II said that fundraising emails from Gardner's re-election campaign to constituents "raise the appearance of impropriety and jeopardize the defendant's right to a fair trial." "Like a needle pulling thread, she links the defendant and his conduct to her critics," Clark wrote in the 22-page ruling. "These emails are tailored to use the June 28 incident to solicit...

The United States saw its deadliest week since the start of the COVID-19 pandemic — with a 44 percent rise in fatalities compared to the week prior, according to new data. A total of 15,966 Americans died from the coronavirus in the seven-day period between Dec. 3 and Dec. 9, according to data compiled by the COVID Tracking Project, which has been releasing a weekly analysis since March 12.

Texas Governor Greg Abbott was heard yelling, “Yee-haw!” while firing two revolvers in the air -- the traditional way to announce a new Texas law. This law is a new public safety mandate requiring all citizens to wear a cowboy hat when leaving their homes. “This bill has been a long time coming,” said Abbott. “We need to flatten the curve of people being a bunch of Californians. That means everyone needs to wear a proper hat at all times and be a true Texan. Yee-haw!”

(CNS News) -- When asked whether she agreed with Joe Biden’s position that “life begins at conception,” Senator Dianne Feinstein (D-Calif.) said, “I’m not going to answer the question.” Biden has said in several interviews that he believes “life begins at conception,” and even expressed this view in the Oct. 11, 2012 vice presidential debate. At the U.S. Capitol on Dec. 8, CNS News asked Senator Feinstein, “Do you agree with Joe Biden that life begins at conception?” Feinstein mrcTV videoFeinstein initially said, “Oh, my god, I can’t believe you,” and her aide interjected, “That’s not an escalator question!” She...

showed up MISSING at my door step. Just a empty tube with a bit of packing material and a missing end cap!!! I chatted with Cafepress who is re-ordering the item since I paid a pretty penny for it. I can't imagine it accidentally falling out. The other end cap was on quite snuggly and the poster would have been tightly coiled against the cardboard tube. Delivered USPS and I live in Upstate NY.

I just read the entire response as linked herein (with thanks to the stickied post from Harper42190). It's a masterpiece of avoiding reliance on specific charges of ballot fraud while repeatedly body-slamming the defendants for that exact electoral fraud. The based lawyers representing Texas have managed the difficult but evidently legally necessary feat of squaring the circle. ^_^ https://supremecourt.gov/DocketPDF/22/22O155/163498/20201211111125165_TX-v-State-MPI-Reply-2020-12-11.pdf BTW, while I'm not a lawyer or paralegal myself, I've written fairly complex legal pages in clear, accessible language for clients who were themselves practicing lawyers. Make of that what you will. :-) Perhaps it'd be interesting to point out a...

Sen. Mitt Romney (R-UT) slammed the Senate’s investigation of Hunter Biden’s foreign business dealings as a “political exercise” in September, saying it was “not the legitimate role of government.” Those criticisms now look shortsighted, as Hunter Biden has admitted that he is under federal investigation.

If we ever get the chance to go to Brazil, McDonald’s will be our first stop. Why? Well, the fast food chain just launched an oozing bowl of melted cheddar cheese that will have you dipping your burger, French fries, and beyond. “What if we made a pool of cheddar…?” the official McDonald’s Brazil Instagram account captioned the news on Dec. 8. The bowl consists of about 3.5 ounces of melted cheddar cheese that you can add onto your order. So whether you’re craving a cheeseburger or chicken nuggets, you can dip your meal in the cheese bowl for an...
