They just counted the Georgia votes because "after the events of the day the senators have withdrawn their objection".

I'll take that bet. It will always get funnier. Can't see any way this doesn't escalate.

Yeah. I keep waffling back and forth on it. Are they more mad at Trump, or afraid of their constituents?

Twitter and FB are deleting his posts left and right.

I think his supporters in Congress may be done, too. They know this shit was all on him.

I'm actually kind of doubting they'll continue with the vote objection bullshit when they get back to it.

There is human tissue in the wreckage, and there was a gunshot 15 minutes before the explosion.

My first thought was boogs, ain't gonna lie.  But now I think it was a crazy person who set the timer and then shot himself.

I wondered that as well.

Waiting to hear what the FBI have to say before jumping to any conclusions, but that's certainly a reasonable possibility based on the very little we know.

My gut is telling me that the bomb maker is not this nutjob. Something this well planned and executed is likely the work of a dedicated and intelligent madman. Teaching some random psycho schmuck how to set a timer ain't all that hard. I suspect that the problem may well be ongoing. I would give A LOT to hear a recording of the exact message in total. The blast scorched the shit out of trees rather far away indeed. That's a helluva heat wash. Enough to make me wonder if it might have been a bit more advanced in composition and construction than your average hillbilly fertilizer bomb. But I don't know enough to really speculate. I DO see that they're being dodgy as fuck about the deets and how to characterize the event. Whatever it is this is an opening move, not game over.

Here's a video that starts a few seconds before the explosion. Um, trigger warning, maybe?

I accept payment in Camel Cash only.

ETA: I guess you already found that. I'm kind of wondering if they used a shaped charge. That building was supposed to be bomb-proof.

I'm leaning toward Qanon 5G conspiracy theorists or something. AT&T owns WarnerMedia, of which CNN is a part. Plenty of stuff to build a theory out of there.

Also, the voice in the recording sounds female.

Yeah. I can't bring myself to read it right now. Saw a Yahoo article this morning trying like hell to avoid saying "big ass professional grade truck bomb and we have no idea if there are more or whodunnit."

The Snivel War... Fucking EXACTLY THAT. Read Howl's most recent Hey Louie. He lays it out exactly as it is. Selfish punks having a tantrum about a reality they just don't like.

Nobody was killed. It was an RV which blared a message through a PA system for 15 minutes before the explosion to "Evacuate the area". The target appears to have been a major AT&T internet hub.

As far as the tantrums, lately I've been rubbing something like that in the faces of people I see calling for civil war. First, anybody who's smart and genuinely intends to engage in such action would not be talking about it on the internet, and second the whole reason people like Antifa and BLM actually got up and did something is because they actually believe the things they say they believe. Most of these yahoos do not. They just say whatever needs to be said at the time to score whatever they perceive to be points (see also: The Alt-Right Playbook: The Card Says Moops) This is why the left stands up for what they believe in, and those people don't precisely because they don't actually believe their own bullshit.

Unfortunately, that still leaves plenty of them who do believe the bullshit and are probably going to act on it.

If anybody needs me, I'll be hunkering in my bean fort.

JOE BION⁻ STOLE THE ELECTRON!!!"

Apparently obscure enough to get me banned from a progressive chat. Because Obvious MAGA troll, not because bad joke.

I just got a warning that the certificate had expired. I think I'm registered with my old Yahoo address.

The trumpists are making a big deal about this:

No idea what it means, if anything really.

I'm more worried about what he's doing to sabotage the country just to make Biden look bad.

Also, some dumbass I've hated since 6th grade just posted this shit on fb.

This same fucker feels that the fact that some members of our church, including some deacons and elders voted against Trump is a serious issue that needs to be addressed.

I have a feeling that a life of violent crime may be in my not-to-distant future.

TWJ, and really anybody for that matter, I just wanted to point out that N95 masks are actually available now, sporadically. I found a box of 15 on grainger.com.  Some of them have exhalation valves which would need to be covered.

These are the ones that were available to ship when I checked just now:

There's no way a rebel uprising would succeed in overthrowing the government unless they had a significant number of defectors from within the military and civilian police forces, way more than three percent.

If three percent of the adult population, about ten million people, suddenly went all domestic terrorist on us, it would be one hell of a mess, though. Even just a hundred thousand of them would be pretty inconvenient.

I think a war of passive aggression is more likely; people letting the Freon out of the local Democrat HQ HVAC, a little light arson here and there, etc... One of those armed protests getting out of hand doesn't seem that unlikely.

Actual armed takeover of the United states by a band of Boogaloo Bubbas is pure fantasy.

Now that I think about it, It more than likely has something to do with the start of deer season. I haven't heard anything in the last couple of days.

I'm more worried about all the various neo-fascist groups headed to DC where there are tens of thousands of people out on the streets celebrating Trump's defeat.
