Not if the Democrats can keep the House. Redistricting is actually favoring Democrats so far, which is nice. Just the other day, for example, the Ohio Supreme Court struck down the Ohio GoP's attempt at a gerrymandered map.

In other news, new cases reached 827k today, a decrease of 22k from the total reported last Friday. A week from today we'll probably have a much better picture of what's to come.
Deaths were up again at 2303, an increase of 277 over last Friday. The 7-day rate is now 1829, up from the pre-Thanksgiving low of 1047. It seems somewhat likely that we'll surpass the summer high mark of 2023 before we start to see this go back down again, but also unlikely that we'll reach last winter's high mark of 3563.

I'm still waiting to hear what Hunter Biden did, that was worse than what Don Jr, Ivanka or Kushner did. Kushner tried to sell peace in the Middle East. Actually, what is Hunter Biden accused of, again?
- - - Updated - - -
It is, he's desperate to get out of that six-foot-hole Trump dug for him.
He is accused of having a paying job. That is what he is accused of. Something none of the Trump kids have had besides the crime family operations at the Trump Organization.
They are accusing Hunter Biden of getting money for him and Joe Biden, but they conveniently ignore that we have 22 years of Joe Biden's tax returns that show he hasn't had much of any cash flow besides, speaking engagements, books maybe, and his vice presidential, and senatorial salaries for years.
There is no billions they have claimed from China or Ukraine.
Thankfully all that nonsense didn't seem to earn them much ground back in 2020, so I don't really imagine that it'll amount to anything now.
Not even the conservative laggards that skulk around these forums are pushing "Hunter Biden" nonsense anymore. And they DO skulk; you'll see them pop in to these threads every once in a blue moon to quote someone they think they've got a "gotcha" on before having a dozen and a half other posters point out why whatever inane point they tried to make is idiotic, misinformed, hypocritical, or all three, and then they disappear for another few weeks before trying it again with someone else.
Yes, hello, we see you.

So Trump had that rally instead of his Jan 6th thing, and big surprise, he talked about how the election was stolen and Fauci was the worst person he ever hired.
He is also pushing the Gaetz/Greene thing about the Jan 6th convicted criminals being treated poorly, which also, there's no evidence of that, either. Hopefully he'll get the chance to ask when he's arrested.
Steve Bannon says Trump rally precursor to overturning 2020 election.
Just a reminder, on the 12th I did say that any Trump supporter should no longer be addressed by what's in their post but the far more important
We still need to do that. Because Trump's cult still seems to think that he won. So, again, any Trump poster says anything, any topic, any statement, that is not to be addressed in any way other than getting their public confirmation that Trump won/lost.
Because the people pushing "Clinton lost, get over it" sure can't seem to get over it.
I remember when he claimed Sessions was the worst person he ever hired.
I remember when he claimed Bolton was the worst person he ever hired.
Now Fauci is the worst person he ever hired.
I mean he's crapped on most of his former employee's but those are the ones I specifically recall are the ones he claimed the worst person he ever hired. Probably more though.
