I believe that every United States senator who swore an oath to uphold the Constitution, but now defiles that oath by not recognizing the winner of a free and fair presidential election, should be stripped of their U.S. citizenship and exiled.
Today I took a 50-mile trip through rural Michigan to see my dad. I was appalled at the number of Trump campaign signs, banners and flags still up.

These people honestly think the election is ongoing. That Trump has a real chance with his stupid lawsuits.
And with the demands for Fox News hosts and Republican politicians to not ever say "President-elect Biden" - I don't think this ends here.

I think there is a significant percentage of the population - maybe 30% or more - who will never recognize President Biden.
Every senator knows that Joe Biden won.

Every senator knows that upholding their oath to the Constitution means recognizing that win.

Every senator who doesn't do this wages war on the Constitution.

They hate America. Banish them.

The most ill-conceived memo in U.S. government history has got to be that ridiculous OLC memo that places a president above the law.

It put Trump out of justice's reach and every crony who did his bidding. It allowed the corruption of huge sectors of the Executive branch.
Without that memo, Trump would have been indicted for Obstruction of Justice before Barr ever happened on the scene.
Without that memo, Trump probably couldn't have run for reelection. He wouldn't have gotten away with threatening to fire McGahn unless he falsified documents; he wouldn't have gotten away with extorting Ukraine.

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.
