Talking I wish I was on the WH staff.

I'd place a dozen or two of these around in various offices. Have some coffee in them like they were being used.

The Economist's model looks better by the day for Biden. 92% chance of a Biden win, with 350 electoral votes.

USA TODAY EDITORIAL BOARD:
Elect Joe Biden. Reject Donald Trump.


https://www.usatoday.com/in-depth/op...es/5919435002/

The only time I remember reading USA Today was when I used to travel, extensively, for business. It was always at the hotel room door when I woke. I'm guessing it reaches a LOT of business people. Hope they read this endorsement. It's critical to vote for Joe.

Biden's Social Security and SSI plan would lift 1.4 million out of poverty, study finds

https://finance.yahoo.com/news/biden...200534985.html

Quote:
Joe Biden’s plans for Social Security and Supplemental Security Income would lift 1.4 million Americans out of poverty in its first year, a new analysis found, along with guaranteeing the payout of full benefits for another five years.

The former vice president’s plan hinges on imposing the 6.2% Social Security tax on earnings above $400,000. Employees and their employers are taxed on earnings up to $137,000 under current guidelines.

If enacted next year, Social Security would collect 7% more in revenue in 2021, 12% more in 2040, and 16% more in 2065 than under current law, according to the analysis. That would allow Biden to move forward on a seven-pronged plan to increase benefits for Social Security and SSI recipients.
Trumpkins, of course, a good portion of whom profess to being "Christians", couldn't care less about the poor.

This election, former RNC Chair and a lifelong Republican, Michael Steele, is voting to restore the soul of our nation.

He's voting for Joe Biden.

'Court rejects GOP effort to block absentee ballot agreement in North Carolina'

"The 4th Circuit Court of Appeals in a 12-3 decision denied an effort to block the North Carolina State Board of Elections from counting ballots postmarked by Nov. 3 but that arrive before Nov. 12."

"All ballots must still be mailed on or before Election Day," Circuit Judge James Wynn wrote, according to Reuters.

"The change is simply an extension from three to nine days after Election Day for a timely ballot to be received and counted. That is all," he continued."

https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/polit...?ocid=msedgdhp

Why is this so controversial that it ended up in a federal appeals court?

Because the GOP can't win unless they screw the vote.
