Breaking: Supreme Court denies Trump allies' bid to overturn PA election results
The fat lady just sang.

To those pushing Sally Yates as AG because you think she'd go after Trump hammer and tong
Consider this:
As a person of high integrity and ethics, she would probably recuse herself from involvement in any investigation related to the person who fired her or matters related to her firing.
In other words, Yates would not be the champion y'all think she'd be.
I don't EVER want to hear anyone again say, "If he'd just obeyed orders, he wouldn't have been shot"

Again.
The Court denied plaintiffs' petition to launch an original action to throw out the results of the Wisconsin presidential election.
While the majority was terse, but firm, one of the other justices wasn't having it. At all:
But the real stunner here is the sought-after remedy. We are invited to invalidate the entire presidential election in Wisconsin by declaring it nullyes, the whole thing.
And theres more. We should, we are told, enjoin the Wisconsin Elections Commission from certifying the election so that Wisconsins presidential electors can be chosen by the legislature instead, and then compel the Governor to certify those electors. At least no one can accuse the petitioners of timidity.

We're busted: it's been revealed how Biden stole the election ...
https://howbidenstoletheelection.com/Why are Democrats constantly lectured to do a better job "messaging" to white rural voters
and no matter how hard Democrats try to talk to them, cater to them, and do for them, when those voters continue to vote Republican, Democrats are blamed for not having the right message
BUT
when black people make simple demands - like, "please treat us like everyone else and stop killing us in the street," - we're told that WE have the wrong message and we need to change it if we want anyone to listen to us?
Can someone explain why white rural voters aren't held responsible for explaining their needs more clearly and Republicans aren't ever lectured about shaping a better message for Black Americans?
Biden broke his foot, but Pavlovitz broke Twitter

1. These kinds of injuries happen to active people;
2. The American public was given prompt and complete information about the Predident-Elect's condition.

Thank you, Eugene Robinson, for talking about the other "real Americans"
Who are they and what drove them to vote in such huge numbers, even during a pandemic? What makes them tick? Is it culture? Tribalism? Race? How did they come to their worldview, and why do they cling to it so passionately? What do they mean for the future of American democracy?
Im talking about the opaque and inscrutable Joe Biden voter, of course.
After Donald Trump won in 2016, the media and academia embarked on a numbingly comprehensive sociological and anthropological examination of the Trump voter. Reporters and researchers swarmed what seemed like every bereft factory town in the industrial Midwest, every hill and hollow of Appalachia, every windswept farming community throughout the Great Plains. Im pretty sure television crews did, in fact, bring us reports from every single diner in the contiguous United States at least, those where at least one regular patron wears overalls.
Never mind that nearly 3 million more of us voted against Trump four years ago; no one seemed terribly interested in our inner lives, our hopes and dreams. This time, however, the gap is too big to ignore Biden, the president-elect, beat Trump by more than 6 million votes and counting. He won back the heartland of Wisconsin, Michigan and Pennsylvania. He won Georgia, for heavens sake.
Logically, then, we should put aside those dog-eared copies of J.D. Vances Hillbilly Elegy and subject the Biden voter to the same kind of microscopic scrutiny. Venture out of your bubble, Trump supporters, and try to understand how most of America thinks.
