Monday Stuff

As I noted on Halloween, this utterly ridiculous sign appeared at the intersection of Route 332 and Stony Hill Road in these parts recently, before Election Day of course. Well, given that world leaders have been calling President-Elect Joe Biden to congratulate him and incoming (and history making) veep Kamala Harris, you would think Xi Jinping would be one of the first people to offer best wishes. However, he apparently hasn't (along with Putin of course, which isn't surprising as you can guess, as noted here)...with Chinese media expressing "cautious optimism" instead.

Weird, huh?

And speaking of weird, it looks like the “mayor of 9/11” recently held a press conference next to Four Seasons Landscaping off State Road in Philly announcing that the Trumpsters will contest the election results...truly, you can’t make this stuff up (more here and here).

And just remember, boys and girls, “Networks don’t get to decide elections. Courts do.” (interesting comment in light of this)...



Update: Just no words, people...

...and Farron Cousins tells us how Sen. Mr. Elaine Chao will continue to do his obstructionist number for as long as humanly possible (though I would always dispute McConnell’s alleged humanity, to be honest – to help Jon Ossoff, click here, and to help Raphael Warnock, click here; both are Dems running in Georgia’s special elections on 1/5/21...electing them is the only shot we have at stopping McConnell)...



...and Cenk and Ana of TYT tell us about Dem U.S. House Rep Ilhan Omar’s response to the remarks from Generalissimo Trump about her and her home state of Minnesota...“I guess he F’d around and found out.” - nice...I’m sure this will prompt a whole other round of wingnut garbage about Omar allegedly marrying her brother (here)...great last 2 minutes or so from Cenk...



...and is it my imagination, or is Pat Robertson slowly turning into Gollum, with Robertson predicting a Trump win, as he did previously with Willard Mitt Romney (mildly NSFW/H)...



...and with the prior clip in particular in mind (and the first one too, I suppose), do you want to know what the rest of the world thinks of how we vote in this country? Well, I think this gives you some idea (and yes, Dems have gerrymandered, but Repugs did it on steroids in 2010 with Project Redmap...NOBODY SHOULD DO IT!).

And hell, I’d even take a “Democracy Big Mac,” but a sausage is good too...



...and given the clip from The Guardian, I couldn’t resist adding this tune.
