Also I am GENUINELY confused as to how he's differentiating absentee versus mail in ballots. I've been a registered absentee voter for years and how is mail in any fucking different??

Secret, unlawful indefinite dissident detention
So when are we just burning the whole thing down?

I turned off "civilian" mode some time ago so really any time is fine. Even if Biden gets elected I expect a police state to continue unabated. I'm still going go vote for him against Donnie tho. Presuming of course that I am still alive and free to do so.

"The White House never sent us evidence the Bernie-Biden platform calls for defunding or abolishing police—because there is none. It calls for increased funding for police departments--that meet certain standards. Biden has called for redirecting some police funding for related programs—like mental health counseling."

The statement, ostensibly issued as a knock on President Trump, ended up blowing back at Joe Biden as leftists, and even some key progressive leaders who should be backing Biden for president in November condemned Biden's statement.

Biden just issued a statement calling for the arrest of anarchists, simply for Being anarchists, which is very explicitly not illegal, wrote one progressive state candidate on Twitter.

It should also be noted that Biden and Trump have now joined together in openly calling for the political persecution of the same people.

Yep, much of which Biden built the scaffolding for. 🙃 He is, after all, the PATRIOT act's granddaddy.

The latest from the wanna-be Mafia don in the White House:

QuoteDonald Trump says the government should get a cut from the sale of TikTok's US unit if an American firm buys it.

The US president said he made a demand for a "substantial portion" of the purchase price in a phone call at the weekend with Microsoft's boss.

He also warned he will ban the app, which is owned by China's ByteDance, on 15 September if there is no deal.

ByteDance is under pressure to sell its US business after Mr Trump threatened a crackdown on Chinese tech companies.

Did the Microsoft rep laugh loudly or quietly?

I guess at this point it's try anything to distract from the 150k+ dead.

Neither, most likely.  The longer I hang out where I am - and this isn't even in the same SPORT, let alone the same league as Microsoft - the more I become likely to simply smile and say "That's great.  No hard feelings.  Sue us."

Man alive that interview with axios should be a campaign killer. I've not laughed that hard for a while. "we're lower than.... The world". Simple follow ups like "who says that?" and "what books?" with the dumbstruck gimp gazing into the distance should be the basis for every attack ad from Biden. I don't know who set this up but they must be quitting within the week.
