2020 Election Results..... here we go.....

Generally an unmoderated forum for discussion of pretty much any topic. The focus however, is usually politics.

Arizona, 11 electoral votes, Biden margin is still 2.4%, still 86% In. :clap: It'll be funny if Faux Noise was correct all along, the other networks were too cautious, and all of the PINO, PINO Klan, and Trumpette whining was stupid (more than usual)....
Biden's Arizona margin is 0.3%, 10,457 out of 3,333,829 cast.

Yep, it's funny.

Trump was convinced he was going to win on election night in a repeat of 2016, and was 'shouting at everyone' when Fox News called Arizona for Biden

Trump continues to deny he lost in first post-election interview, says FBI and DOJ 'missing in action' against 'total fraud'

... “This is total fraud. And how the FBI, and Department of Justice — I don't know, maybe they're involved — but how people are allowed to get away with this is stuff is unbelievable. This election was rigged. This election was a total fraud,” Trump said.

He later said, “All I can say, is: With all of the fraud that's taken place, nobody has come to me and said, ‘Oh, the FBI has nabbed the people that are doing this scheme.’”

The Department of Justice, he said, in response to a leading question by Bartiromo, is “missing in action.”
Bad former PINO-appointed Christopher A. Wray.
Baaaad Barr.
He also charged news media and social media companies with ignoring what he said was the worst political scandal in American history, and alleged, again with no evidence, that ballots were requested in the names of dead people, and that “many mailmen are in trouble for selling ballots.” He accused two leading Republicans in Georgia, Gov. Brian Kemp and Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger, of failing to properly administer the election. “I’m sorry I endorsed him,” Trump said of Kemp.
Bad Faux Noise.
Bad Postmaster General Louis DeJoy.
Bad Brad.
Baaaad Zuck and Kemp (even a broken clock ...).
... He has continued to declare the election a scam even as a series of judges — many appointed by Republicans, himself included — dismissed his lawsuits as baseless. On Saturday, the Pennsylvania Supreme Court tossed out a Republican lawsuit challenging the legitimacy of the Keystone State's election.

“They make it like we don’t have evidence. We have evidence all over the place,” Trump insisted Sunday. He went on to complain that some of his own team’s lawyers were threatened — “psychologically and otherwise” — into resigning from the effort.
Bad lawyers and Repug judges.
At the interview’s close, Trump implied that he would not be conceding the election to Biden even after his successor enters the Oval Office.

“It’s not like you’re going to change my mind. In other words, my mind will not change in six months,” he said.
Maybe he'll get the psychiatric care he needs in prison, and he won't be tweeting.

Lou Dobbs Rages At William Barr, Suggests He Might Be 'Compromised' Or 'Ill'

... Dobbs, who has devotedly parroted Trump’s baseless “stolen election” claims since his loss to Democrat Joe Biden, went at Barr with full force even though Barr ― a loyal Trump ally himself ― waited nearly a month after the Nov. 3 election to publicly state that no evidence had been unearthed to support the president’s claims the election had been rigged.

“For the attorney general of the United States to make that statement, he is either a liar or a fool or both,” Dobbs declared. “He may be, uh, perhaps compromised. He may be simply unprincipled. Or he may be personally distraught or ill.”

The “Lou Dobbs Tonight” host also complained that Barr was joining in with the “radical Dems and the deep state and the resistance” by announcing the Justice Department had failed to find any proof of wrongdoing in the election.

... These unsubstantiated claims have repeatedly been dismissed and debunked in the courts, by bipartisan election officials and now by the Justice Department.

It’s particularly striking that Dobbs would allege Barr is working against the president, but his claims were no more outrageous than other disinformation he’s shared on his show in the past. His segments about Trump routinely earn him comparisons to state television propaganda in North Korea.

This is what will happen; trumpy Barr will be fired or quit and Rudy will be "acting" AG and direct an effort that will be a hotbed of stupidity and a mind numbing exhibit of incompetence in which Hunter Biden will play a starring role. Everyone except trump and Rudy will die laughing.

To boost voter-fraud claims, Trump advocate Sidney Powell turns to unusual source: The longtime operator of QAnon’s Internet home


https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.washin ... utType=amp
Powell has claimed that a diabolical scheme backed by global communists had invisibly shifted votes with help from a mysterious computer algorithm pioneered by the long-dead Venezuelan dictator Hugo Chávez — a wild story debunked by fact-checkers as a “fantasy parade” and devoid of proof.
Goddamn. Who would've guessed Hugo Chavez was software engineering some algorithms to flip some votes.

I bet she has in mind some nefarious hackers sitting in a dark bunker wearing a trench coats typing madly while green text a la the matrix scrolls quickly across their monitors.

That sounds very computer algorithm-ey.

I don't think people really know what an algorithm is as it pertains to computer science. Case in point the above quote...

Somewhat related, but I watched this video the other day and it made sense. The "teach everyone to code" is something that sounds good, but in reality it's not.



Case in point - tons of people switching their majors from CS to something else because it just doesn't click with them when I was in college. It doesn't mean they're stupid. Many of them were super intelligent. It's just wasn't their thing and didn't pique their interests. And that's ok.

I had a friend that wanted to "learn to code" so she could get a well paying job. She wanted to sign up for a coding boot camp and pay a few grand to take a crash course in programming. I told her it didn't seem like a good idea if you have no prior experience. They didn't touch on a lot of the fundamentals like data structures, etc... That's not good. Crash courses might be ok, but it's good to learn the fundamentals first. This one didn't touch upon those.

I think a lot of people and politicians think coding is like any other trade, but it's not. You need to be good at problem solving, designing algorithms, etc...

I guess you can do graphic design stuff and some other things without having to get into the engineering aspect of things, but the "everyone learn to code" is not as simple as it seems.

'Stop the Steal' rally asks Trump supporters not to vote in Georgia's Senate runoffs

I endorse this tactic.
... With Trump campaign flags flying, the scantily masked crowd was reminiscent of a rally for the outgoing president. But the "lock him up" chants at this rally were actually targeted at Brian Kemp, Georgia's Republican governor....
I also support this call, but for his 2018 "election", not for 2020.
... Powell added to that, calling for ballots that are signed and marked with a thumbprint — an idea that doesn't jibe with the secret ballots mandated in Georgia and most of the U.S.
Idiot.
"I would encourage all Georgians to make it known that you will not vote at all unless your vote is secure," Powell added, essentially advocating for a boycott of the January runoffs that will decide control of the Senate. And when Rep. Vernon Jones (R-Ga.) tried to butt in and encourage people to turn out, Wood jumped back in, telling everyone to stay home until Trump is given the win and even suggesting Trump should split from the GOP altogether...
Stay or split - I'm for whichever does more damage to the Repugs.

Stephanie sums the crazy lady up,
"I find it astonishing that she’s gotten to this point,” said Stephanie Stout, a lawyer in private practice in Greeley, Colorado, who worked with Ellis a few years ago defending a man who was accused of attempted murder. The partnership was short-lived, Stout said, because their client fired Ellis, deeming her not up to the job.

“She just didn’t have the legal chops,” added Stout, who ultimately won the case on her own. “After that, Jenna decided that I had stolen the case from her"
Trump: “We had the safest border in the history of our country - or at least recorded history. I guess maybe a thousand years ago it was even better.”
