270 is the obvious number 1 goal, however there needs to be running up the score as much as possible, especially in Colorado, Maine, Arizona, North Carolina, Montana, and maybe even Kansas and Kentucky. It can't just be exciting some of the states that Trump won, but getting turnout for down-ballot races across the board.

Holy Cow, the Little Green Men's authority is that B.S. EO signed to protect statues. Also Chad Wolf refusing to remove the officers.

1. The more EC daylight Biden can put between he and Trump, the stupider it will be to challenge the results; and

2. If anything, Trump would wail louder in the case of a landslide, because VOTER FRAUD could be the only explanation.

TBF, it does border Washington. But I would bet dollars to donuts that Trump couldn't pick out Portland on the map, or tell you what the capital of Oregon is.

But I'm most outraged they are using rented minivans. Can't we get some black SUVs, or at the very least, a nice sedan to illegally detain these protesters instead of the same minivan Becky's mom had to rent to take the soccer team up to Tacoma for that tournament?

Trump seems like an "oar-a-GONE" guy.

Wow. Here's a blow to the idea that University studies are honest.

"The Michigan State University administration pressured professor Stephen Hsu to resign from his position as vice president of research and innovation because he touted research that found police are not more likely to shoot black Americans. The study found: "The race of a police officer did not predict the race of the citizen shot. In other words, black officers were just as likely to shoot black citizens as white officers were." For political reasons, the authors of the study sought its retraction."

Too much blame for strong arm tactics against perpetrators by the police. Many times when police are trying to apprehend someone the subject is resisting arrest, running away, and/or otherwise somehow tangling with and/or not obeying them. Come on now people, stop resisting and respect the uniform.

You would think that would be common sense, but we are living a world like George Orwell predicted.

Might sound ignorant here..or out of the loop.

But. Why is "All lives matter" racist? What did i miss somewhere along the way?

I can only speak for myself.
All lives matter is only racist if it's intended to be racist - and some people intend it to be racist.

Wow.

So to apply the analogy back to BLM, all this “black lives matter” is just whiny nonsense that warrants a butt whopping?

Thanks, lobster.
