Senator Josh Hawley is Attacking Your Vote, Our Votes, Our Election and Democracy Today, Missouri, America

 Yes, Missouri's own Senator Josh Hawley is doing just that. He's attacking your vote, our votes, our election, right down to our Democracy today, Missouri and America.

GOP senator to delay affirming Biden victory by forcing votes on Electoral College results

Yes, grandstanding demagogue Senator Josh Hawley is putting up a fight to help and go with this Republican Party President Trump and his sycophant, uninformed, misdirected and misinformed supporters that we shouldn't accept and recognize President-elect Biden's win in last month's election.

Isn't that wonderful?

Forget that over 50 courts have thrown out all the cases on this because there was and is patently zero evidence of vote fraud. This was from November 23, mind you.

Trump's election fight includes over 50 lawsuits


President Donald Trump and his allies have filed dozens of lawsuits across the country in an attempt to contest the election results.

Most of them have been shot down or withdrawn, and no court has found even a single instance of fraud. Of at least 57 cases to have been filed, including some not directly involving Trump but which could nonetheless affect his standing, at least 50 have been denied, dismissed, settled or withdrawn.

Trump has aggressively ramped up his allegations of election fraud in the weeks since his projected loss, tweeting dozens of debunked theories. Despite the Electoral College vote this week certifying Biden's victory, Trump has still not conceded.

Meanwhile, since the end of November, even more cases have been thrown out, dismissed by judges and courts. This one happened December 14.

Wisconsin Supreme Court tosses Trump election lawsuit


Even Republicans have come out and said Trump and this vote fraud nonsense should go away.



It's not just his call for our election to be overturned, either. This is how this group of Republicans feel about this President of theirs.


Additionally, this was from November 21.

More examples--and from, again, Republicans.

Georgia GOP lieutenant governor says 'no credible examples' of voter fraud


Republicans rebuke Trump over claims of voter fraud 

And sure, I get it. Senator Hawley wants to keep in good to great graces with Trump and maybe even more, his supporters, sure, so he can maybe run for the presidency in 2024. I get that. But attacking, again, our votes? Our election? Our Democracy?

Oh, hell, no. This cannot stand. Senator Josh "Mr. Sedition" Hawley can't get away with this.

The Washington Post said it so true and right.

Josh Hawley reminds us that the GOP is the sedition party

I can't recommend enough and ask that anyone and everyone who sees and reads this please phone or email---or both--Senator Hawley and tell him we don't appreciate him subverting our Democracy.

Hawley's office. You may well have to leave a message: (202) 224-6154

The Insane, Bizarre, Ugly and Now Dangerous World Into Which This President and HIs Political Party Have Brought Us

 I can honestly still not believe the things this Republican Party President keeps saying and doing. Now we're here:

2020 is the deadliest year in US history, with deaths expected to top 3 million for the first time

What the sorry excuse for "leadership" from this Republican Party President Trump and his political party has gotten us all, gotten the nation. Is it any wonder we wanted to vote him out and so badly? Thanks, Republicans. Thanks so very much. This man Trump and all he has wrought this last 4 years is on you, all on you---forever.  This last fact and statistic is the worst, of course, but it's followed by this beauty, too.

For the 40th consecutive week, Americans file more than a million claims for jobless benefits

Then this happened.

Trump Demands $2,000 Stimulus Checks, Imperiling Covid-19 


Forget that these negotiations have been going on in Congress for months and that Americans are hurting. Millions of us are going hungry, millions more are already facing possible eviction from their homes and consequential homelessness. Oh, yeah, forget all that. Republicans and Democrats finally hammered out a deal to get assistance out to us all and this President, at the last minute, decides the checks--at $600 to us schmoes out here--aren't large enough and the threatens to veto the whole thing. Things you can be sure of just now because of this move by the Trumpster:
  1. Nancy Pelosi and the Democrats are rightly overjoyed and loving this President's insanity 
  2. Mitch McConnell and the Republicans are about to pull their hair out because of their own President's wildly contradicting excuse for "leadership" on COVID assistance issue and
  3. No one, no one still knows what goes on in Donald Trump's mind
Minutes ago, he, Trump, did this.


This took place 2 days ago.


Forget that we voted. Forget that more than 50 different judges and their courts found zero proof of vote fraud. Forget that all those lawsuits by this President Trump and his attorneys were all thrown out. Forget all that. They want to overturn our vote, our votes, our election.

Naturally, it's Donald Trump so it gets worse.


Of course, they won't think of it as "dictatorship." They'll say they're just trying to reseat the current President because he won this election. Which of course he didn't.

At this stage, we are 27 days from Joe Biden's inauguration.

It can't happen soon enough.

I so hope this doesn't get crazier.

Or uglier.
