In a new essay published in The New York Times, Pope Francis — the head of the Catholic Church — speaks out about the COVID-19 pandemic, calling on observers to “recover the knowledge that as a people we have a shared destination.” As he puts it: “This is a moment to dream big, to rethink our priorities — what we value, what we want, what we seek — and to commit to act in our daily life on what we have dreamed of.” The Pope also addressed those who’ve failed to rise to this standard of finding a meaningful path forward amidst the crisis; he spotlights the dangers of groups that have protested COVID-19 restrictions and of governments that have failed to act appropriately.
The Trump administration, of course, falls into that latter category. The Pope did not mention Trump, but the relevance of his remarks to the American experience seems clear. Throughout the duration of the crisis, Trump has tried to downplay the significance of the pandemic. His administration has financially supported the development of a COVID-19 vaccine, but in the here and now, they’ve frequently hesitated to act decisively — to say the least. Trump has talked about the country supposedly learning to live with the disease — as Joe Biden poignantly noted in response, the actual process has been more like learning to die with it.
The Pope noted the following:
‘With some exceptions, governments have made great efforts to put the well-being of their people first, acting decisively to protect health and to save lives. The exceptions have been some governments that shrugged off the painful evidence of mounting deaths, with inevitable, grievous consequences. But most governments acted responsibly, imposing strict measures to contain the outbreak.’
As for those who’ve protested COVID-19 restrictions — who’ve repeatedly enjoyed the support of Trump himself — the Pope added the following:
‘Yet some groups protested, refusing to keep their distance, marching against travel restrictions — as if measures that governments must impose for the good of their people constitute some kind of political assault on autonomy or personal freedom! Looking to the common good is much more than the sum of what is good for individuals. It means having a regard for all citizens and seeking to respond effectively to the needs of the least fortunate.’
Trump and his allies have frequently failed to meaningfully grasp this message. Just recently, Trump offered public support for a U.S. Supreme Court ruling against COVID-19-sparked restrictions on gatherings in New York. Speaking to all observers, the Pope concluded, in part, as follows:
‘God asks us to dare to create something new. We cannot return to the false securities of the political and economic systems we had before the crisis. We need economies that give to all access to the fruits of creation, to the basic needs of life: to land, lodging and labor. We need a politics that can integrate and dialogue with the poor, the excluded and the vulnerable, that gives people a say in the decisions that affect their lives. We need to slow down, take stock and design better ways of living together on this earth.’

Trump has always had a scratchy relationship with the press. In his first foray before the media, saying the sitting POTUS was a bit touchy is an understatement. When he first began running for president in late 2015, he appeared on MSNBC’s Morning Joe show. Joe Scarborough was talking to Trump about Russian President Vladimir Putin.
Scarborough argued:
‘But, again: He kills journalists that don’t agree with him.’
Trump replied: ‘Well, I think that our country does plenty of killing, too, Joe.’
Later, when then-candidate Trump was asked about condemning the killing of journalists, he gave a mixed message response: ‘Oh sure. Absolutely…I’ve always felt fine about Putin. He’s a strong leader. He’s a powerful leader.’
The sitting US president has attacked journalists at every opportunity. The first time that Donald Trump took questions from reporters since he lost the presidency to President-elect Joe Biden and Vice President-elect Kamala Harris, things did not go well.
It all started when Trump responded to a reporter’s question about conceding the election to President-elect Joe Biden should the Electoral College validate Biden’s victory. While the president was responding, Reuters reporter Jeff Mason interrupted him:
POTUS turned on the journalist. He called the reporter a “lightweight,” and continued as a parent reprimanding a wayward child might, “I’m the president of the United States:”
‘Don’t talk to me that way, you’re just a lightweight, don’t talk to me that way” Trump told the reporter as he pointed at him. “I’m the president of the United States. Don’t ever talk to the president that way.’

He tweeted the following message : This message is so pathetic .

However, even the cursory, basic fact-checking that Fox sometimes offers is more than Trump seems willing to handle.

Either way — the fact that the “suffering” that President Victim Complex seems most concerned with is having to sit through television that he doesn’t particularly like is a disgrace to the United States.
On Saturday, Trump also claimed that conclusive evidence of election fraud was on the way, although there’s no meaningful indication that it actually is.

The Wisconsin recount is not about finding mistakes in the count, it is about finding people who have voted illegally, and that case will be brought after the recount is over, on Monday or Tuesday. We have found many illegal votes. Stay tuned! — Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) November 28, 2020
Specific allegations were made, and we have massive proof, in the Pennsylvania case. Some people just don’t want to see it. They want nothing to do with saving our Country. Sad!!! — Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) November 28, 2020
The number of ballots that our Campaign is challenging in the Pennsylvania case is FAR LARGER than the 81,000 vote margin. It’s not even close. Fraud and illegality ARE a big part of the case. Documents being completed. We will appeal! — Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) November 28, 2020

In Georgia , both incumbent Republican U.S .
Senators — both of whom are running for re-election in run-off elections slated for early January — have been caught in insider trading scandals .
The Senators , David Perdue and Kelly Loeffler , have repeatedly reaped clear financial rewards on the stock market while in office .
In both Perdue and Loeffler ’ s cases , their stock portfolios shifted significantly following a January briefing about the then-looming threat of COVID-19 .
Both Senators have distanced themselves from the stock trades , saying that they ’ ve “ relied on portfolio @ @ @ @ @ @ @ as Mother Jones explains .
No matter if financial managers ran the daily decision-making process , were these managers ever informed by information or political moves from the Senators ?

In Georgia, both incumbent Republican U.S. Senators — both of whom are running for re-election in run-off elections slated for early January — have been caught in insider trading scandals. The Senators, David Perdue and Kelly Loeffler, have repeatedly reaped clear financial rewards on the stock market while in office. In both Perdue and Loeffler’s cases, their stock portfolios shifted significantly following a January briefing about the then-looming threat of COVID-19. Both Senators have distanced themselves from the stock trades, saying that they’ve “relied on portfolio managers to make day-to-day decisions,” as Mother Jones explains. No matter if financial managers ran the daily decision-making process, were these managers ever informed by information or political moves from the Senators?
Some voters in Georgia who turned out for Trump might not be motivated to turn out for other Republican candidates of a more traditional streak. On the flip side, Georgia voters who may have voted for Biden and one of the Republican Senate candidates out of a combination of anti-Trump animus and attachment to conservatism might be persuaded to support the Democrats for the run-offs.

bipartisanreport--2020-11-28--Trump Tweets Deranged Weekend Vote Fraud Freak-Out

President Donald Trump continues to peddle ignorant nonsense about the recently concluded presidential election .
As he continued to push the idea that fraud plagued the election around the country , Trump claimed on Twitter shortly after midnight Saturday on the east coast that 1,126,940 votes in Pennsylvania had been “ created out of thin air.

This alleged discrepancy @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of requested ballots is from the primary , the state says .
The higher number , as mentioned , is from the general election in the state .
Alongside data that Pennsylvania state Sen. Doug Mastriano posted on Twitter and claimed had been deleted from the Pennsylvania Department of State ’ s website , Trump wrote the following message , referring to the alleged number of mail-in ballots that were tabulated on top of those that authorities sent out : Again — the entire premise of this tweet is false , on a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ emerged because Mastriano was comparing the number of ballots requested for the primary with the number of ballots requested for the general election .
The president of the United States , however , clearly did not care to conduct any meaningful fact-check before trumpeting his claim of fraud to the world .
Trump is correct that the world is “ watching ” — they ’ re watching him flail and push utter lies and nonsense .
Trump posted this nonsense in the wake of yet another court failure for his legal team .

The panel concluded , in the words of Trump-nominated Judge Stephanos Bibas , that the campaign ’ s claims “ have no merit.

A local ABC affiliate reported updates throughout the day:
‘President-elect Joe Biden received 317,527 votes compared to 317,270 from the initial count. ‘The Board of Canvassers certified the results early Friday evening. ‘”This recount demonstrated what we already know, that elections in Milwaukee County are fair, transparent, accurate and secure.

Donald Trump is what we call “a lame duck,” according to Phrase Finder. Now that the president is limiting himself to the refrigerator and the golf course, maybe we should look a little more deeply into his situation. It is not pretty.
The notion of a lame-duck does not quite fit the bill, given that Trump never was especially “previously proficient,” but it can work:’
‘A person or thing that isn’t properly able to function, especially one that was previously proficient.’
Sunday morning, the governor of Arkansas Asa Hutchinson (R) admitted that his administration is helping President-elect Joe Biden’s transition team. The reason was shattering to Donald Trump. The reason is that the president’s words have become “not quite as significant” now that he has lost the election.
Even though Trump has taken over 30 cases before the court, he has lost each one of them. Hutchinson said:
‘The courts have not seen evidence of such extensive fraud. Scores of courts have looked at that and so that’s why the General Services Administration recognized Vice President Biden as president-elect. He is president-elect. We need to work on that transition.’
Then, Hutchison added that the worst part might be a difficulty with “vaccine distribution:”
‘The worst thing that could happen is that we do no have a smooth handoff when it comes to our vaccine distribution. That takes that transition to start now and I’m grateful that it has.’
The Governor continued, noting that he believes the reason Trump never conceded was he intends on challenging more cases into court.
Governor Hutchinson is one of the few Republicans to refer to Biden as the “president-elect:”
‘We’re working with the Biden administration, the likely administration on both the transition and the inauguration as if we’re moving forward on State of the Union.’
Governor Asa Hutchinson of Arkansas is one of a few Republicans to refer to Biden as the president-elect:
‘The transition is what is important. The words of President Trump are not quite as significant.’
Hutchins is able to pull in ideas from a variety of sources. He thinks larger than the immediate problem at hand. He noted that Arkansas’ Justice Reinvestment approach allowed Arkansas to become the first state in the country to create a network of crisis stabilization units. These units allowed the community mental health specialists and law enforcement officers to work together to connect people experiencing mental health crises to the help they need. The professional staff members are also given special training for the program.
How can Arkansas help more people living with mental illnesses avoid jail and get the treatment they need? He responded:
Each year, a ridiculous number of people who have “mental illnesses and co-occurring substance addictions” go to jail:
Studies in individual counties have shown:
‘[P]eople spend more time in lock-up than the average person booked into jail and that they return more frequently. This creates a huge burden on taxpayers, leaves our communities at risk, and could exacerbate the mental illnesses with which people are already struggling.’
Listening to a man describe the utter confusion and frustration he felt between the time of his arrest and his diversion to the Crisis Stabilization Unit “helped me appreciate the challenges people who have serious mental illnesses face across the country:”
‘[I]n Arkansas, we didn’t have the time, nor the luxury, to play politics while our criminal justice system was facing seemingly insurmountable problems.’
Arkansas is among many firsts. Who knows? Maybe the Donald will go there himself:
‘The Justice Reinvestment’ approach allowed Arkansas to become the first state in the country to create a network of crisis stabilization units, enabling our community [to do more].’
That little walk away from the Republicans’ history allowed:
‘a bipartisan group of state and local leaders came together as part of Justice Reinvestment, a federally funded approach that identifies evidence.’

bipartisanreport--2020-11-29--Another Trump Funded  Recount Ends & Adds Votes For Biden

The Trump campaign-funded recount in two major Wisconsin counties has concluded — and President-elect Joe Biden has gained 87 votes overall in the state .
The Wisconsin recount stretched across two counties , Milwaukee and Dane , both of which lean heavily Democratic , and the effort cost $ 3 million , which the Trump team had to pay under state rules because Biden ’ s margin of victory was over 0.25 percent .
Overall , the recount effort confirmed that Biden won the state as a whole by over 20,000 votes — a margin that was never particularly susceptible @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Michigan Attorney General Dana Nessel ( D ) observed that many of the Trump campaign ’ s fights seem underpinned by racism , since they ’ ve frequently targeted Black-majority areas .

The Trump campaign-funded recount in two major Wisconsin counties has concluded — and President-elect Joe Biden has gained 87 votes overall in the state. The Wisconsin recount stretched across two counties, Milwaukee and Dane, both of which lean heavily Democratic, and the effort cost $3 million, which the Trump team had to pay under state rules because Biden’s margin of victory was over 0.25 percent. Overall, the recount effort confirmed that Biden won the state as a whole by over 20,000 votes — a margin that was never particularly susceptible to a legitimate recount.
Recently, Michigan Attorney General Dana Nessel (D) observed that many of the Trump campaign’s fights seem underpinned by racism, since they’ve frequently targeted Black-majority areas. Dane County, which includes the city of Madison, completed its recount effort on Sunday, while Milwaukee County completed theirs the preceding Friday. Wisconsin state officials will soon certify the statewide results. According to The Washington Post, Trump and his allies “have said they still plan to fight in court in an attempt to prevent Wisconsin from moving forward,” although there’s no particularly compelling indication that these fights will be successful. The Trump team’s post-election record in court is mostly a long list of failures.

bipartisanreport--2020-11-29--Kelly Loeffler Has PR Disaster During Sunday TV Appearance

During a weekend appearance on the Fox News program Sunday Morning Futures , Sen. Kelly Loeffler ( R-Ga. ) , who ’ s running for re-election in a January run-off election , sounded totally unhinged .
At one heated point , she insisted to host Maria Bartiromo that Americans won ’ t “ get a second chance ” to bring the country “ back from socialism ” if Democrats are victorious in Georgia and subsequently control the Senate .
Loeffler ’ s extremist rhetoric sounds disturbingly apocalyptic — there ’ s no nefarious “ socialist ” takeover knocking at the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ mainline Democratic Party agenda as “ socialism ” simply isn ’ t even accurate .
President-elect Joe Biden doesn ’ t even support “ Medicare-for-all ” ( instead , he wants a “ public option , ” with private insurers left in place ) .
At one point , Loeffler ’ s angry comments about her opponent , Democrat Raphael Warnock , seemed to carry a racist undercurrent .
Warnock , who serves as the pastor of the Atlanta church where Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. preached , is Black , and Loeffler @ @ @ @ @ @ @ would turn violent criminals into our streets.
” Racists often associate non-whites with violence .
In this case , Loeffler ’ s suggestion that Warnock wants some kind of violent free-for-all is clearly completely false .

During her time on Fox , Loeffler also reiterated the claim that Warnock had welcomed the Communist Cuban dictator Fidel Castro to a New York @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , although Warnock was a youth pastor at the church at the time , PolitiFact “ found no evidence that Warnock celebrated or welcomed Castro or that he was involved in arranging his appearance.

Loeffler’s extremist rhetoric sounds disturbingly apocalyptic — there’s no nefarious “socialist” takeover knocking at the door of America. Referring to the mainline Democratic Party agenda as “socialism” simply isn’t even accurate. President-elect Joe Biden doesn’t even support “Medicare-for-all” (instead, he wants a “public option,” with private insurers left in place).
At one point, Loeffler’s angry comments about her opponent, Democrat Raphael Warnock, seemed to carry a racist undercurrent.

Watch Loeffler’s Sunday appearance on Fox below:
No matter Loeffler’s original intention, characterizing Warnock as a “radical change agent” sounds racist, as if Black people are the ones who can’t be trusted. Meanwhile, it’s worth noting that Trump recently lost Georgia to Joe Biden, so associating herself with the losing presidential candidate might not be the greatest idea from Loeffler.
During her time on Fox, Loeffler also reiterated the claim that Warnock had welcomed the Communist Cuban dictator Fidel Castro to a New York City church in 1995. In reality, although Warnock was a youth pastor at the church at the time, PolitiFact “found no evidence that Warnock celebrated or welcomed Castro or that he was involved in arranging his appearance.” When the church’s lead pastor introduced Castro on the church’s stage, Warnock was not on stage.
If Democrats win both Georgia run-off elections, then they will control the Senate. The chamber will be 50-50, but vice presidents are tasked with breaking ties, and with Biden in the White House, the vice president will be Kamala Harris.

Some of the cable networks have begun fact-checking Donald Trump in real-time and switching off his sound when he begins lying. Now that at least 80 million voters ushered him out of office, even the Republican Senators are becoming less and less willing to stick their necks out for the man who would-be dictator. Missouri Senator Roy Blunt appeared on CNN’s State of the Union with host Dana Bash. It did not end well.
She gave Blunt ample time to make his case, but he kept dancing around an answer in a well-practiced act. Bash had to cut him off, because he refused to find any “credible reports of massive election fraud.”
Missouri has elected the senior Republican leader seven times to the House of Representatives and to the Senate in 2010, according to his website:
‘Senator Blunt was elected the Majority Whip earlier in his career than any Member of Congress in eight decades, and he was elected to the Senate leadership during his first year in the Senate.’
He reflects the changing state’s politics. In 1984, he was the first Republican elected to Washington from Missouri in over 50 years. Longtime Democratic Senator Claire McCaskill lost in her last bid for her seat in 2018. Blunt used to be about as far right as the GOP would go until the Tea Party came along:
‘[He was] elected the Majority Whip earlier in his career than any Member of Congress in eight decades, and he was elected to the Senate leadership during his first year in the Senate.’
Blunt and Dash started discussing Georgia. The president’s lawyers tried to get the race overthrown to no avail. There was no tangible evidence of voter fraud to be had. The votes had already been counted and re-counted. Ignoring that, Trump demanded a third recount.
POTUS lost the race in Georgia to President-elect Joe Biden three times. Bash asked a pointed question:
‘Do you, Roy Blunt, as not just the former secretary of state of Missouri, as the [Senate] Rules chairman, you have a bird’s eye oversight view of the elections, do you think it was rigged? Yes or no?’
Roy Blunt claimed he disagreed with the rigged comments:
‘I don’t think it was rigged but I do think there was some things that were done that shouldn’t have been done and I think there was some element of voter fraud as there is in every election but I don’t have any reason to believe that the numbers are there that would have made that difference.’
Then, the subject of Pennsylvania came up:
‘I do wish in Pennsylvania — when they were opening all of those ballots, they would have let people see that they were checking the signatures.’
‘When you send ballots out to people that you don’t know if they are still there or not and they come back and you don’t check the signatures that is a huge problem but I don’t think we have demonstrated it’s a size of a problem that would change the result.’
Bash cut the Missouri senator off:
‘Okay, senator, just to put a button on that, there is no evidence that people didn’t see signatures. In fact, the state supreme court and now federal court have both thrown out the notion — that that didn’t happen.’
Senator Blunt has a busy schedule. He serves as the Chair of the Senate Republican Policy Committee and as the Chair of the Senate Rules Committee. He is also the chair of the Appropriations Subcommittee on Labor, Health and Human Services, and Education.
He is also on the Senate Appropriations Committee; the Senate Commerce, Science and Transportation Committee; and the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence.
