At this stage, no amount of dishonesty, gaslighting & smokescreen will save you, @FiveRights and @JamesDelingpole (who just retweeted this). Get a grip. There will be arrests, arrest sheets, concrete details, for all time.

As for you, @KathyConWom, you're British, you're supposed to be an adult, you're supposed to be politically experienced. To tweet this out tonight might strike you as a master-stroke of snobbery. It isn't. In context, it makes you look enormously stupid.

Image
oh for heaven's sake. @JamesDelingpole, idiot of a prat of a Brit, has just retweeted @LLinWood, grifter extraordinaire, total flake, and delusionmonger. There will be arrest records. ID checks. There's no way to lie out of this one. Image
Kathy, for.... oh, just grow up. You personally have no excuse for playing this dumb.

That's actually a very pertinent point. Helmut Kohl was THE reunification Chancellor, but then he threw it all away through scandals. Gerhard Schröder was the reform Chancellor, but too Russia-friendly by half. Merkel has done a very reasonable job, throughout many crises
While I strongly disagreed with some of her decisions, there was that fillip of sheer irony of the time when Angela Merkel was too Christian for @DouthatNYT.

Easily. In some ways, Germany could have done much better against #COVID19 (state/federal fights haven't helped). But in a LOT of ways, no mentioning names, Germany could have done FAR worse. Merkel deserves a lot of the credit for that

Just a few words about myself, since many of you are new to me. I have my own standards of judgment and conduct. Most of the time, I try to stay polite. Sometimes I don't. There are reasons for that.
If I judge you are being deliberately dishonest, I will act and speak accordingly. Since the pandemic began, end of February, there have been a million trolls, pretend-'sceptics', sociopaths, and, well, just plain gormless idiots. Some of them are all of those things.
Today, 1 in every 50 British people is infected with COVID19. So what, you say, that's 'only' 2%. Welcome to the world of:
a/ exponential growth.
b/ low number of ICU beds with enough real ICU staff.
Give you one guess what that combination means.

Yes, I can, you ignoramus by choice. Flu has an R0 lower than #COVID19; early days yet, but it seems the measures against COVID_19 have worked even better against the flu. As for "pneumonia", lol, you're aware that COVID_19 causes pneumonia too? Plus opportunistic bacteria? Etc.?
Because greater social distancing, more use of face-masks. However, complacency may cause the #COVID19 epidemic to take off in Japan too this winter.

You could have very easily looked up all this all by yourself.
LOL! @ClarkeMicah has at every step of the way downplayed the pandemic, promoted utter cranks, and just played silly buggers from April 2020 onwards. That wasn't an insult, it was a description.
Get over yourself.

OK. CNN News now saying Trump's Twitter account locked for the next 12 hours. Several tweets on it also now deleted. CNN also saying the White House has called a "lid", i.e. no announcements from the WH for a while.
Other sources quoting Pelosi as saying certification (of the POTUS election results) will proceed at 8pm, presumably US East Coast time, so still on the same day. At least one Republican senator seems to have withdrawn his objections.
with thanks to @Daemond6:

Listening to Biden live, speaking (on CNN). He's being eminently sensible, and measured in tone. He strikes a good line.

I easily remember all the Trumpalos and that demented grifter, @LLinWood, attacking the Georgia GOP, their two candidates, and so on. You sowed the grifters, you reap the whirlwind of being powerless from now on. You turned defeat into catastrophe

Republican. At least one more adult. The drama-queens storming the Capitol have zero idea of how real institional power works, in a large nation. The mills of God grind slowly, but they grind exceedingly fine, as the drama-queens will find out.

You idiots. Now you've just made everything 100x worse for yourselves, you've discredited yourselves forever. There's no coming back from this and getting taken seriously ever again, except as criminals.
theguardian.com/us-news/2021/j…
Can't care less if you're Trumpalos, antifa blackbloc, or Farrakhan's lot. You do this kind of thing, you belong in prison. Escalating things to this point only makes you a loser forever, not just for one election. You've damned yourselves

At least someone is being an adult and has some sort of grasp on reality.
