    I'm curious why my new post that referenced an article about "racial audits" was suddenly pulled without a stated reason. I not only wasted time filling in all the required fields but also wasted more time posting a somewhat lengthy comment regarding the referenced article. Before pulling a new topic, wouldn't it be better to embargo (instead of delete) the new post and send a notification so the OP can fix the new topic for re-posting? Just a thought.

    "The top general in the country believed that President Donald Trump was in significant enough mental decline ... believed that Trump's mental health had declined to the point where he needed to intercede with China so that a war didn't get started by an unhinged Trump. That is, in retrospect, terrifying ... Milley and McCarthy believed that things had worsened in the final months of his presidency suggests that we may well have been closer to a catastrophe than anyone even thought ... But, it's more than terrifying in retrospect. Because Donald Trump isn't gone. Not even close. 'I said...

    COLUMBUS, Ohio—Attorney General Dave Yost on Thursday filed a legal brief with the U.S. Supreme Court opposing a Texas lawsuit seeking to effectively delay the Electoral College from voting Joe Biden the next U.S. president. Yost, a Columbus Republican, stated in the brief that the Supreme Court lacks authority to order state legislatures in Georgia, Michigan, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin to appoint presidential electors. Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton’s lawsuit argues such a move is needed because coronavirus-related changes to election rules in those states opened the door to unsubstantiated claims of voter fraud.

    Throughout the 2020 election season, no Democrat politician even raised an eyebrow about the violent Marxist Black Lives Matter/Antifa wild thug mob riots that it perpetrated, for the past six months, in cities throughout the country. In fact, Democrat politicians were happily cheering on the violent BLM/Antifa riots. Republicans thought: How can Democrats possibly think that strategy will lead to Kamala's victory? Well, back then, few people wisely anticipated the Democrat Party Cabal's massive nationwide election fraud. Anyway, they're now the self-proclaimed "President-Elect" and self-proclaimed "Vice President-Elect." Yet, Democrats know it will be impossible for Kamala to lead the country...

    A cop-hating demonstrator was charged with spitting in an NYPD sergeant’s face during wild protests in Manhattan Wednesday night, police said. Devina Singh, 24, was caught on video without a mask and screaming at the sergeant, “F— you, fascist!” before allegedly spitting at him.
  • Unspectacular Excellence of Biden's Slow Campaign

    For nearly an hour—although it felt much longer—Biden strayed from subject to subject, alternating between exasperated observations of President Donald Trump and insider anecdotes of how things used to function in Washington. Suffering from laryngitis after stumping for dozens of other candidates, Biden’s delivery was scratchy and off-key, which made his meandering only that much harder to follow. Some 30 minutes into his remarks, with the keynote speaker no closer to finding an organizing theme, people began to get up to leave. First a few, then a larger trickle, and before long, streams of them, young and old, black and...

    "President Trump and the first lady have paid the price for his gamble to play down the COVID-19," Global Times editor-in-chief Hu Xijin said in a tweet. "The news shows the severity of the US' pandemic situation," Hu said. "It will impose a negative impact on the image of Trump and the US, and may also negatively affect his re-election."
