The loonies have just objected to the EC for Arizona.

Presumably this means they'll be objecting several states. Could take hours.

Aye. I'm out.

 

[littlebabyjesus]

Kelly Loeffler, who has never won a senate election and just lost her senate seat, is flying up in her private jet to object to the EC vote. SAVE DEMOCRACY.

 

[Ax^]

does appear by the sky coverage that lots less protester carrying guns at the protest

that should appease the crowd

I cannot wait to read the transcript of this. It's is trump's best ever performance.

100% insane fascist dictator.

This is great. I started watching before Trump comes on. They're playing the Village Peoples "Macho Man" . This could well be my evenings entertainment

[Kaka Tim]

Surely the cops were expecting them? Or have they just let them through?

 

[Ax^]

Mitch "we need to stop non white people voting, unless we won't be able to select our presidents"

 

[nogojones]

He is actually going to get on board with the "arrest and execute Mike Pence" train, isn't he? Excellent stuff.

I've been on this train for a while now and it's standing room only

I found a livestream but it's some MAGAT channel so I don't want to give them the clicks.

Anyhoo, lots of shouting and MAGA tears from some gas but the fence is holding.

"I want to urge:

democrats - if you vote as a bloc its bad
republicans - if you vote as a bloc its good"

 

[spitfire]

we've now reached the WAY DOWN and WAY UP portion of the speech, like Cicero did in the Third Speech against Cataline

I am not familiar with Cicero's speech but going to stick my neck out and suggest it was more....coherent..than Trump's
