A bold move by China Joe and The Los Angeles Times
Make America California Again? That’s Biden’s plan
After four years of being relentlessly targeted by a Republican president who worked overtime to bait, punish and marginalize California and everything it represents, the state is suddenly center stage again in Washington’s policy arena.
Huh what? Targeted? That was California’s Xavier Bacerra (who now works for China Joe) suing the Trump admin over lots of things, such as cracking down on illegal immigration. Sorry if California was asked to pay its fair share.
California is emerging as the de facto policy think tank of the Biden-Harris administration and of a Congress soon to be under Democratic control. That’s rekindling past cliches about the state — incubator of innovation, premier laboratory of democracy, land of big ideas — even as it struggles with surging COVID-19 infections, a safety net frayed by the pandemic’s toll, crushing housing costs and wildfires, all fueling an exodus of residents.
There is no place the incoming administration is leaning on more heavily for inspiration in setting a progressive policy agenda. (snip)
Other Californians will be doing the same from Biden’s Cabinet. Atty. Gen. Xavier Becerra is nominated to run the massive Health and Human Services Department. The nominee for Treasury secretary, former Federal Reserve Chair Janet Yellen, is a professor at UC Berkeley, as is the nominee for Energy secretary, Jennifer Granholm. Longtime California resident Alejandro Mayorkas is the nominee to run the Department of Homeland Security. (snip)
Not that Biden needs the nudge. He’s been pushing to nationalize some of the state’s pioneering efforts on climate action, workers’ rights, law enforcement and criminal justice, healthcare and economic empowerment since he was vice president in the Obama era. He continued to champion the cause while he and Harris were still rivals in the 2020 presidential race.
Let’s see: poop and used drug needles in the streets, a massive amount of homelessness (decriminalizing homelessness and giving them drug paraphernalia) , rising property and violent crime rates in the cities run by Democrats, an outsized cost of living, excusing illegal immigration, rolling brownouts and blackouts, many of them planned, skyrocketing energy prices, skyrocketing housing prices, a hostile environment for businesses, and so much more, to the point people and businesses are streaming out of the state to Arizona, New Mexico, Texas, and even Mexico. Californians think the state is headed in the wrong direction.
How’s this going to work for that #Unity stuff?
Unity ? How can there be unity until the right finally admits that Biden won? Lol
The same people who are still saying that the election was rigged are the ones who kept saying Obama was born in Kenya
How can there be unity until the fascists’ finally admit that the fraud election was their coup d’état? They are using 30,000 troops to “install” a fake president. They have made DC a fortress (but walls don’t work). They have corrupted every area of modern American life from education to information to elections.
When you stop saying our speech is violence but your violence is speech there can be unity.
Stop trying to make sense to retarded Johnnie.
Lolgf
Anyone who seriously believes that trump won the election is “tetched in the head” as grandpa Tom would say.
But then nuCons beliefs are mostly untrue.
Hairy is right. There can hardly be unity as the nuCons are “tetched”.
We have to have a common understanding of reality. The Earth is a sphere some 4 billion years old. Bears do shit in the woods. SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes Covid, has killed some 400,000 Americans. The virus was not created in a laboratory in China. There is no credible evidence that the election was stolen.
… and that lying little pussy Rimjob joined the US Army back during Vietnam and served honorably…
Bwaha! Lolgfy
No credible evidence? You mean no credible evidence has been looked at. Let’s review-voters cast ballots in person and by mail. Election officials gather to watch the ballots being counted to make sure it’s done fairly. Election officials in some locations order observers out of the counting rooms. Election officials put cardboard over the windows so election observers can’t see in. Election officials secretly count the ballots by machine and announce a result. The losing candidate doubts the results. The losing candidate requests a manual recount with ballots individually verified. Instead, election officials run the same ballots through the same machines again. The losing candidate requests access to the software to verify the results. Election officials order the software logs wiped. The losing candidate requests access to the paper ballots to verify the results.
Election officials order the paper ballots shredded. Citizens post videos and swear affidavits that election fraud occurred. The courts decline to review any evidence from the losing candidate for lack of standing, meaning he can’t bring his case until the Secretary of State certifies the election results. The SOS certifies the machine results. The courts decline to review any evidence from the losing candidate on grounds of “latches†, meaning he waited too long to bring his case. The state legislatures de-certifies the machine results and sends its own result to D.C. Bureaucrats in the National Archives decide to accept only the machine results. Congress accepts the machine results and declares the losing candidate lost. The losing candidate and his supporters exercise their First Amendment rights to protest. Violence breaks out, which is blamed on the losing candidate despite his calls for peace. After seeing these events, millions of Americans join the losing candidate in doubting the machine results and suspecting the losing candidate actually won the election but his victory was stolen from him by fraud committed by election officials. Liberals declare that people who question the machine results are dumb, idiots, etc. People who question the election results are banned from Facebook, Twitter and Instagram; blocked from Google ads and Youtube videos; accused by prominent politicians of plotting to overthrow the government; a national media figure declares the government should take away their children to be sent to re-education camps; a congresswoman demands they be blacklisted from future employment; and the media calls for the “losing†candidate family to be criminally prosecuted.

Obviously among some the question arises “did Joe Biden win the election fairly?†The usual answer-“you’re a Naziâ€
Accusations, conspiracies, claims, fantasies, but no evidence. Pushed as a Big Lie by Donald Trump who tells 10 lies a day. The claim that the courts didn’t look at evidence is UNTRUE. Courts did look at “evidence” and concluded it was sloppy, non-existent or worthless hearsay.
“I couldn’t get as close as I wanted”. Therefore, fraud.
“Sandy told me she heard that a counter was duplicating ballots”. Therefore, fraud.
“I ran the data through an algorithm that showed more votes than voters”. Therefore, fraud.
“Dominion voting machines!” Therefore, fraud.
Mr Giuliani, Ms Powell, Ms Ellis, Mr Wood could have presented all their great evidence of fraud but didn’t do it. Why?
Just because right-wingers have gone batshit crazy proves nothing other than that right-wingers are susceptible to falsehoods.
Why hasn’t a reasonable, respected conservative assembled all the evidence of fraud to be examined by impartial investigators?
The strategy (plot?) by trump and his far-right victims is to present snippets of lies repeatedly to enable the Big Lie.
At noon Wednesday Jan 20, 2021 Joseph Biden becomes America’s 46th President and Kamala Harris becomes the new Vice President.
Well he did receive the most votes of any candidate in history… at 4 a.m.
Bwaha! Lolgf
The fascists are so afraid of us they just locked down DC because a homeless dude under a bridge had a fire in his tent. HIS TENT! You got that?
Guilt and paranoia go together like peas and carrots…
F. Gump
As the fascists prepare the 30,000 troops needed to install the illegal usurper we need to wonder who is running the show since Xiden is a senile fuk head. Are the fascists favorite people, the Billionaires now in charge of everything? I could say by the number of Red Chinese spies in the former Democrat party like Boxers assistant of 30(?) years, Farting Swalwell’s personal fuk and her “aides” (now returned to Red China), or Swalwell himself a Red Chinese operative in the House Intelligence Committee. Where else would the fascists put a commie but in intel? They hat America so much they have permeated the government with our enemies.
Tomorrow should be full of innuendo, lies, gaslighting and accusations of how Americans with MAGA hats and American flags are “traitors” and “insurrectionists”.
Liberal playbook: When leftists learn they lost the argument they resort to polemic ad-hominin attacks.
And if that won’t work accuse us of what they’re doing.
At noon Wednesday Jan 20, 2021 Joseph Biden becomes America’s 46th President and Kamala Harris becomes the new Vice President.
Not all MAGAts are traitors and insurrectionists.
Did anyone think to ask why trumpists (MAGAts) are compelled to wear MAGA hats and wave Trump! flags? It’s a cult.
Commenter: “did Joe Biden win the election fairly?â€
Answer: “Yes. Thanks for asking.”
Yes, fraud J. Signed affidavits of being kicked out or kept out of the counting rooms. Pictures of cardboard being put up to cover up windows. Ballots shredded. Why in the hell would someone do that if there’s nothing to hide? Then there’s the whole other part where judges and Secretaries of State changed election laws when the Constitution special says only state legislatures can do that.
Do you think every court, state and federal, were also in on the conspiracy? Does that make sense to you? How about the FBI? Attorney General Barr who told Trump the tale that the election was stolen was “bullshit”? Barr was out of a job a couple of weeks later. DHS?
Signed affidavits aren’t credible and convincing evidence. When Giuliani had these witnesses in court the judges were unimpressed. His “star” witness, Mellissa Carone, was a joke. She also goes by Melissa Wright and Mellissa Wright.
“Everything that happened at that TCF Center was fraud,†she said, when appearing on December 2 in front of a Michigan House oversight committee. “Every single thing.â€
“I have 19 things in my affidavit. I was at the TCF Center for 27 hours. I am a mother, I have two children, and I have two degrees,†Carone said in a video shared by President Donald Trump on Twitter. “I don’t know any woman in the world that would write an affidavit under oath just to write it. You can go to prison for this. So anyways, I want to make this very clear. My, I was initially supposed to work at the Detroit Department of Elections building. That was an order by my manager … part-owner of Dominion. I have it all in emails. … I was trained on the adjudication and tabulation process. … I know for a fact there was illegal activity going on there. People have pictures of people carrying ballots out of that place.â€
Carone signed an affidavit saying that she saw two vans that were supposed to be delivering food, but, “I never saw any food coming out of the vans, coincidentally it was announced on the news that Michigan had found over 100,000 more ballots — not even two hours after the last van left.â€
And on and on. She lied about her work record and expertise. She has a criminal history. She’s a Trump supporter and Stop the Steal person.
Chris Krebs, head of DHS cybersecurity:
“There is no evidence that any voting system deleted or lost votes, changed votes, or was in any way compromised,” the agency reported last Thursday in an assessment joined by a coalition of election security groups, including the National Association of State Election Directors. “All of the states with close results in the 2020 presidential race have paper records of each vote, allowing the ability to go back and count each ballot if necessary. This is an added benefit for security and resilience. This process allows for the identification and correction of any mistakes or errors.”
Trump then fired Mr Krebs.
The former director acknowledged Trump’s action in a brief tweet Tuesday: “Honored to serve. We did it right. Defend Today, Secure Tomrorow.”
Georgia DID conduct a hand recount of the physical paper ballots and again Mr Biden won. Can you explain that?
Regarding AG Bill Barr:
Attorney General Bill Barr stood behind a chair in the private dining room next to the Oval Office, looming over Donald Trump. The president sat at the head of the table. It was Dec. 1, nearly a month after the election, and Barr had some sharp advice to get off his chest. The president’s theories about a stolen election, Barr told Trump, were “bullshit.”
White House counsel Pat Cipollone and a few other aides in the room were shocked Barr had come out and said it — although they knew it was true. For good measure, the attorney general threw in a warning that the new legal team Trump was betting his future on was “clownish.”
Trump had angrily dragged Barr in to explain himself after seeing a breaking AP story all over Twitter, with the headline: “Disputing Trump, Barr says no widespread election fraud.” But Barr was not backing down. Three weeks later, he would be gone.
