Well b back 3,285 Posted November 6, 2020 Oh dear It’s getting wild outside the elections department in Arizona's Maricopa County. Biden currently leads in the state by 1.3%, with 93% of votes counted - a surprising development in a state which has traditionally voted Republican in presidential elections. Conspiracy theorist Alex Jones, who runs the right-wing conspiracy theory website Infowars, is here leading the crowd in chants of “1776!” and “Pelosi Burn in Hell!” Across the street, another group sings the US National Anthem, The Star Spangled Banner. Arizona is an “open carry” state, which means you can carry guns in public. Many people here are armed. Heavily armed. The protests have been rolling here for days and growing. Many of the protest leaders here are from other states, like Jones and Charlie Kirk from Turning Point USA, a conservative student group. A lone Biden supporter with a Biden/Harris sign walked through the crowd to shouts and boos. Women shouted “give him a hug” and urged the crowd to stay peaceful. The crowd has been peaceful - although poll workers have had to be escorted into and out of work to stay safe from jeering crowds. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Well b back 3,285 Posted November 6, 2020 5 minutes ago, Surfer said: Trump's legal argument summarized.... Trump possibly to speak after Biden. Please do the right thing Donald The mood at the White House today has been sombre, several Trump officials have told CBS News, the BBC's partner in the US. Some of the president's aides haven't shown up to work today, and the atmosphere is "very empty", says CBS. Our own reporter at the scene, Tara McKelvey, has had a similar experience. "A lot of the desks are empty. It feels spooky. Some of the staffers are outside the White House, talking privately on their mobile phones and walking around," she says. While Trump has fired off tweets, promising a legal challenge to ensure he is re-elected, aides say he may make another address to the nation again tonight. They say the chances that he will give a televised address will go up if Biden speaks tonight, as his campaign has signalled he may do. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mind you, I reckon it will still come as quite a shock to many of their readers when they catch up with the news that Thatcher really has given Hong Kong back to China - I imagine the Mail could be leading with that story quite soon now 🤣 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
