US President Donald Trump returns to the White House after news media declared Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden to be the winner of the 2020 presidential election
This weekend we had a nice treat
We got to watch Donald’s defeat
But though the game’s lost
He will, at great cost
Be mounting a fighting retreat

This afternoon.
More as we get it.
Meanwhile…
I’ve tweeted out 3 videos of clear and obvious election fraud. Twitter has deleted each of them. Twitter is interfering in our election!!

“We think there’s going to be a lot of litigation because we have so much evidence, so much proof, it’s going to end up perhaps at the highest court in the land, you’ll see. We think there’ll be a lot of litigation, because we cannot have an election stolen like this.”

FIGHT!
Meanwhile…
Hmm.

Meanwhile…
I had such a big lead in all of these states late into election night, only to see the leads miraculously disappear as the days went by. Perhaps these leads will return as our legal proceedings move forward!

Uh oh.
New works by diorama dramatist Slinkachu, mostly created at home, due to lockdown. Sez he to Colossal:
My work has always reflected the sense of isolation and loneliness that a big city can imbue, but the isolation of being inside is new to me. These were recreations of small parts of city streets built in my living room with concrete paving slabs and weeds and moss.

UK’s Talk Radio.
“One of the biggest travesties of Covid, not just the sad deaths, has been the use of data…we’ve had made many mistakes.”
Former head of health analysis at the UK’s Office for National Statistics (ONS) Jamie Jenkins speaking to Mike Graham after the British government was forced to reissue key charts used to justify a second lockdown after admitting projected fatalities were overstated.
Last week, the Central Statistics Office (CSO) statistician John Flanagan calculated that 900 and 1,200 people ‘who would otherwise have been alive’ if Covid hadn’t struck died in Ireland up to the beginning of October.
The Department of Health’s number for the same period is in excess of 1,900 deaths.
