No big deal, just a top White House official publicly arguing that Joe Biden would be an "illegal" president and that Democrats stole the election because they "hate [Trump] more than they love this country."
Ah.

How it started. How it's going. ImageImage
About 200,000 Americans died of COVID-19 in the period between WSJ publishing Mike Pence's op-ed saying the media was exaggerating the threat of the virus and Scott Atlas' op-ed saying the media was exaggerating the threat of the virus.

For the second consecutive night, the president of the United States was up after 1 a.m. tweeting deranged OAN chyrons.

Left, OAN News, 12:09 a.m.
Right, Trump, 1:14 a.m.
Here are some other screengrabs from that hour.
"One America News will officially not be calling Joe Biden the president-elect... we are the only broadcast news network out there with the integrity to report that this election isn't over. Fox News caved, to no one's surprise."

Fox News dayside is increasingly covering stuff that happens on Tucker Carlson's primetime show.
Every Fox program since 6 a.m. has covered Tucker Carlson's show.
A few minutes later, the same show airs a different Carlson clip, immediately followed by an Ingraham clip.

The last five years have been one long series of decision points where Republican leaders could have chosen to make a firm break with Trump and did not, as he gained a tighter grip on the party's base.
So you're OK with Trump saying Mexico is sending us rapists? Fine, how about him saying a judge opposed him bc he’s Mexican? Fine, do you care about a tape where he talks about sexually assaulting women? Fine, what about "very fine people on both sides"?

And on and on they went.
The president is openly demanding that his political allies repudiate the election results on spurious grounds, amid an ongoing pandemic more lethal because of his failures. And with a tiny number of holdouts, they are either passive or active supporters of the coup.

Fox News has run multiple segments today detailing the travails of a Minnesota family that received an anonymous letter criticizing their Christmas light display.

Meanwhile, a record number of Americans are hospitalized with COVID and the death total is soaring.
This isn't even the only dumb "War on Christmas" bullshit they're running with today.
Nothing else going on today I guess.
