As Trump & Co claim victory in PA, their lead keeps shrinking.

They lead by 379,692 votes.
There are 929,598 ballots left to count.
It all depends on what percentage of the absentee ballots are Biden's.

If Biden gets at least 71% of the absentee ballots, he wins.
Just updated my calculations based on new input from PA. If Biden gets 69% of the absentee vote, he wins.

In the spirit of doing everything we can to get out the vote this election, I thought I'd share my completely honest experience with phone banking in the hopes that I might persuade some of you to go do it yourselves.
So. I've been phone banking in Michigan for the Democrats for about a month now. I sign up for two nights per week for about an hour each.
I'm not going to sugarcoat it and tell you it's super fun and exhilarating because it's absolutely not that. It's HARD and I usually dread it because I'm an introvert. And honestly, a lot of people are not happy about being called.

But.

It's worth it.

1/ I keep thinking about the crowd at Trump's Michigan rally yesterday. They were so eager to pretend Trump is telling the truth when they KNOW he is NOT.

He yelled at them to "Tell your governor to open up your state! She's got to open up your state! Open up the schools!"
2/ The state HAS been open and they ALL KNOW IT.

Michigan gyms are OPEN.
Movie theaters are OPEN.
Restaurants are OPEN.

Our SCHOOLS ARE OPEN.

And every Michigander in that crowd KNEW IT.
3/ Trump bellowed out that nonsense and the crowd went wild with excitement, frothing at the mouth for the chance to pretend their governor was the overbearing despot Trump says she is, even as they know everything single thing he just said was false.

Think the Democrats should DO SOMETHING?

How about this?

1. House passes an emergency bill to fund a jail cell TOMORROW for those who FOUND in contempt of Congress.
2. @RepAdamSchiff sets the date for intelligence officials to SHOW UP at a briefing.

3. The House votes NO LATER THAN 5PM on MONDAY to subpoena their traitorous asses.
4. If the officials don't show up at the designated TIME and PLACE, they are arrested by the Sergeant at Arms and placed in detention until such time that they decide to do their DUTY as dictated BY LAW and protect AMERICAN CITIZENS instead of DONALD F******* TRUMP!

Mueller has HAD it with the Trump/GOP/Fox News talking point that the Russia investigation was "illegitimate" or "phony" or a "hoax."

"The women and men who conducted these investigations and prosecutions acted with the highest integrity"

washingtonpost.com/opinions/2020/…
No matter how many times Barr/GOP/Trump/Fox call it a sham 👇

"By late 2016, the FBI had evidence that the Russians had signaled to a Trump campaign adviser that they could assist the campaign through the anonymous release of information damaging to the Democratic candidate."
He reiterates that Stone was talking with Russian Intelligence throughout the campaign, and LIED about it. He lied to federal investigators, he lied to Congress, he coaxed others to lie to Congress. Image
