Republican corrupt insider trader bitches currently have slight lead in both races, but Dekalb county (Atlanta) hasn't reported yet. Failing NY Times still predicts both Warnock & Ossoff the likely winners.
https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/...pe=Interactive
It looks like Raphael Warnock is probably going to beat Loeffler with over 35K votes up with 98% counted. Purdue and Ossoff are neck-and-neck with Purdue ahead by 1800-1900 votes but much of metro-Atlanta has yet to be counted with the bulk of that going to Ossoff...
Good job by Drumpf for repressing GOP vote! He may singlehandedly win elections in Georgia, just not the way he thought!

Warnock is effectively giving his acceptance speech right now...
Warnock is projected the winner and Ossoff's lead is increasing... so prepare for the de-throning of McConnell.....
Purdue is/was not just one of the worst senators but one of the worst people in the US. Politicians seem to be getting worse and worse.

Don't give Loeffler a pass. She received a serious briefing on Covid-19 very early on then engaged in insider trading and profiteering by selling off anything that could be effected by a pandemic and buying lots of medical. The awful cunt then went on to downplay the virus publicly...
In pushing his claims of electoral fraud, Trump drove a wedge into the state’s Republican Party. He spent weeks angrily attacking Kemp and Georgia’s Republican secretary of state, Brad Raffensperger, accusing both of turning a blind eye to voting irregularities.
But Georgia held two separate recounts of the statewide results and conducted signature verifications of mail-in ballots in Cobb County that found “no fraudulent absentee ballots.” Those efforts did little to mollify Trump, who on Monday night railed against the vote tallies and promised to campaign a governor who he had once endorsed.
"I'll be here in about a year and a half campaigning against your governor, I guarantee you,” Trump said of Kemp.
The two Republicans in the race likewise offered voters a mixed message, agreeing with Trump that the November election had been “rigged” while urging supporters to the polls in the runoffs.

Apparently the GOP on the Hill is incensed with Trump for massively fucking all this up and essentially pushing GA Blue. I wonder if he has effectively "cut-his-own-throat" when it comes to investigations and the support he is no longer going to get after this election?

I heard 5 minutes of his rally the night before the election and it definitely didn't help.
Fucking MAGAtt terrorists are attempting a coup at the Capitol. Time to stop tolerating these assholes and start shooting the motherfuckers

The pictures look like a lot of coups in other countries...
Paid agitators. Some of them match photos of the Philadelphia chapter of Antifa. They could have done better with their costumes. The fur hat with the horns is a bit too much. On a regular day you would have a very hard time getting very far past the US Capitol Police. Too easy.

I thought the color revolution in the Ukraine was gay but the one we got going right now takes the cake.

It’s the result of years of unchecked corruption in the federal government and China has spent the last 40 years infiltrating us and taking advantage of the corruption. China has great interest in splitting us up because they become the superpower. Right now we have an asymmetrical war with China going. It’s becoming a ripe situation for someone out of the military to take charge. That’s what usually happens when the political process shit’s itself.
Major manufacturing trade group calls on Pence to invoke 25th Amendment to remove Trump from office and 'preserve democracy'

Jay Timmons, president and CEO of the National Association of Manufacturers, called on Vice President Pence and top White House officials to invoke the 25th Amendment and remove President Trump, as pro-Trump rioters invade the US Capitol.
The 25th Amendment allows the vice president and members of the Cabinet to remove a president who is unfit for office.
"This is not law and order. This is chaos. It is mob rule. It is dangerous. This is sedition and it should be treated as such," Timmons said in a statement Wednesday.

As armed pro-Trump rioters stormed the US Capitol on Wednesday, the head of the country's largest manufacturing trade group issued a scathing rebuke of the violence and called for the president's removal.
Jay Timmons, president and CEO of the National Association of Manufacturers, an influential advocacy group that represents more than 14,000 member companies across industrial sectors, described the rioters as "armed violent protesters" engaged in "sedition."
"This is not law and order. This is chaos. It is mob rule. It is dangerous," Timmons said. "This is sedition and it should be treated as such."
Members of Congress had convened in a joint session to certify Electoral College votes confirming Joe Biden as the next president when violent protesters breached the Capitol building, forcing lawmakers to evacuate.
Timmons also called on Vice President Mike Pence, who was presiding over the session, to invoke the 25th Amendment, which allows for the removal of a president who is deemed unfit or unable to serve. The amendment allows the vice president and a majority of the Cabinet to remove a president from office.
"Vice President Pence, who was evacuated from the Capitol, should seriously consider working with the Cabinet to invoke the 25th Amendment to preserve democracy," Timmons said Wednesday.
Top White House officials reportedly discussed invoking the 25th Amendment early during President Trump's term, according to a then-anonymous op-ed published in The New York Times in September 2018. When Trump contracted COVID-19, people wondered whether he would hand over the reins to Pence.
Timmons' statement echoes similar comments made by business leaders condemning the rioters on Capitol Hill and calling on officials to act.
"This is not who we are as a people or a country. We are better than this," JP Morgan Chase CEO Jamie Dimon said on Wednesday in a statement tweeted by the firm. "Our elected leaders have a responsibility to call for an end to the violence, accept the results, and, as our democracy has for hundreds of years, support the peaceful transition of power."
President Trump, for his part, issued a video statement on Twitter hours into the rioting praising his supporters and repeating false claims of election fraud.
"So go home, we love you, you're very special, you've seen what happens," Trump said in a recorded statement Wednesday. "But go home, and go home in peace."

I'm hearing that it was Pence and not Cheeto who finally called the National Guard in to disperse the MAGAtt terrorists. So maybe - after being made to crawl into a hidey hole after doing his mundane constitutional duty of opening the envelopes - Pence has had enough of the Orange Imbecile's bullshit. He should have played the 25th Amendment card years ago, but there's literally nothing standing in his way now. Get it done, and let Pence be a placeholder for two weeks. Don't see how the fuck he could make anything worse.
Various members of Congress are now joining the call for 25th amendment Cheeto removal. Will Pence step up and do it?
Melania's Chief of Staff has submitted her resignation out of disgust...
I really hope that this finishes Ted Cruz as a presidential candidate. At least with Trump he is maybe dumb enough to believe the conspiracy theories about electoral fraud, surrounded by sycophants and may have been looking at prosecution post presidency. Cruz made another purely political cynical decision thinking it would allow him to get the Trump base at the next election and it's blown up in his face.
MAGAtts tried to attempt a coup locally here as well. They managed to get through the gates at the Governor's mansion, but not into the mansion itself. Cop cars & sirens were fucking crazy around here for a few hours!!
Impeachment should have occurred way before...
What a bunch of morons, really!

Yesterday was a mess and many things should not have happened... but the US Congress performed their constitutional duties, certified all 50 states election results and officially recognized Old Joe as the next president of the USA. The nation remains intact and constitution upheld. Love em or hate em... the legislative branch did a respectful and honerable job despite the shit-show going on at the capital.
Trump will remain POTUS for 13 more days. Impeachment... invoking the 25th amendment... all fools errands and won't happen.
There will be a peaceful transfer of power on the 20th.
Mr Trump can enjoy his new job as... citizen Trump. May god have mercy on his soul...
4 years and 13 days from now, this once great Country will be in ruins. The next 4 years will more than wipe out the previous 4 years of greatness we've enjoyed.
I feel bad for the younger folks that have had their democracy stripped from them. Their votes no longer matter. Big tech and the Government now have the ability and authority to "vote" in who they want. If NickDemonrat wasn't ghey, he'd have literally stripped his kids and grandkids future votes from them, by perpetuating this fraud. All over the hatred of one man. The party of love and tolerance, that has ruined this once great Country with their 4 year witch hunt, over their simpleminded hatred.

Just because people on the internet and Trump say there was a fraud doesn't mean there was one.
The judges in dozens of court cases, judges that Trump appointed say so.
You are being very gullible.
I think it's maybe fake news as not many people play golf in January here. The story was a flight plan was filed but we'll see.
Seems a strange choice as Trump has been unpopular in Scotland for a lot longer than in the US. He did buy a couple of top golf courses with laundered Russian money which now lose millions each year.
No Sesh, you are being very gullible. If you believe the most unpopular candidate in the history of candidates, got 80 motherfucking million votes, you're the gullible one. This fucking guy couldn't get 10 people to get off their asses and come out to see him.
Hackers can sit at home and hack into major corporations, but you don't believe our voting system can be hacked and manipulated? But wait, didn't you and all the Libtards spend the last 4 years claiming the Russians interfered in 2016? Now all of the sudden, it is unfathomable that this one has been manipulated?
Come on Sesh. Don't allow your hatred of one man, to cloud your vision of reality. I've met NickDelusional. Him I can understand him walking around in a foggy haze of hatred and delusion. You? You are better than that.
I'm not optimistic about the next 4 years... as Von says it's not going to leave this country in a better shape than we are today.
There are some very real concerns about some of the crap the incoming majority is considering that may significantly erode our democracy, rights and the balance of how our government functions... as ugly as it is... Some of that may leave us in ruin.
On the other hand... while the focus and motivation has been the hatred of one man... with that catalyst gone... I'm expecting the shit-show among the majority to turn on themselves far worse than the last 4 years were... odds favor little getting done even with a majority in both houses and the white house.
Trump was behind in every poll for years before the election, of course he lost the popular vote.
You don't have a voting system every state has it's own voting system. The voting system is too difficult to hack because it is too disparate, It's much easier to hack the voters.
The Russians interfered in the election in 2016 by trying to influence people via social media, they still do. They don't care who wins they just want to disrupt democracies to the max so that they can say that democracy doesn't work and you are better off with a Putin style strong man. They don't like people like Biden or Clinton, they like Trump and Saunders. They even like the people I voted for here because they think Scottish independence could be bad for NATO and again causes disruption.
I think I'm right in saying that the last few times the US has been better off economically after a Democrat president and worse after a Republican but that's kind of bullshit anyway as the president has way less power over that stuff than most people think.
Your federal government hasn't been functioning properly since Trump didn't do the transition 4 years ago, appointed a bunch of mixture of corporate interests, crooks and jokers into key positions and left many empty to rot.
Exactly what the DemonRATS did, only with social media AND the media. FACT!
I can't imagine your hatred for one man, blinding you so. Causing you to believe it can happen from one side, but not the other. FORD has brainwashed you with all these years of bullshit he's been posting.
80 million people didn't vote FOR Biden. Most of them - including myself - voted AGAINST Cheeto. As far as rally attendance numbers.... that shit's pretty much irrelevant in 2020, for obvious reasons. Cheeto was dumb enough to keep holding rallies... just ask Herman Cain how well that worked out.
I know you are gauging how our federal government functioned from what you've been presented from the outside looking in...
It's been a very noticeable improvement from my perspective living here... pre-COVID. Not just me personally from reduced tax liability for a healthy income. I've seen the economic growth improve the lives of a lot of people in the bottom 60% of the earning scale.
Job growth that I haven't seen since the last tech boom in the 90's. Industries expanding and significantly investing due to freeing up from regulatory constraints. Especially blue collar industries... literally more jobs than people to throw at em. Oil & gas, construction, manufacturing and infrastructure expansion.
Even saw improvements in the health industry, which I currently work in... due to the scaling back of parts of the ACA and opening up of the health market place.
All that was before March 2020 and Covid. But some aspects continued to prosper where the local/state governments didn't shut them down.
