Pennsylvania postal worker recants ballot tampering allegations

The House Oversight Committee announced Tuesday that Richard Hopkins went back on his assertion that a postmaster in Erie, Pa., told workers to backdate ballots mailed after Election Day after he was questioned by a U.S. Postal Service inspector general. Hopkins had signed a sworn affidavit attesting to his claims.

Democrats on the Oversight panel said investigators from the U.S. Postal Service had told the committee that Hopkins had signed a sworn affidavit with allegations of ballot tampering and fraud before recanting: “USPS IG investigators informed Committee staff today that they interviewed Hopkins on Friday, but that Hopkins RECANTED HIS ALLEGATIONS yesterday and did not explain why he signed a false affidavit”

Hopkins’s claims had been widely touted by Republicans and were at the heart of a letter from Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) to the Justice Department urging it to open a federal probe. Attorney General William Barr, in a controversial move, subsequently gave the green light for prosecutors to investigate credible allegations of voting irregularities and fraud https://thehill.com/homenew...

DOH!

We are the hollow men
We are the stuffed men
Leaning together
Headpiece filled with straw. Alas!
Our dried voices, when
We whisper together
Are quiet and meaningless
As wind in dry grass
Or rats’ feet over broken glass
In our dry cellar

Shape without form, shade without colour,
Paralysed force, gesture without motion;

Those who have crossed
With direct eyes, to death’s other Kingdom
Remember us — if at all — not as lost
Violent souls, but only
As the hollow men
The stuffed men....

This is the way the world ends
This is the way the world ends
This is the way the world ends
Not with a bang but a whimper.

Broken glass hurts

Trump is going to leave Biden with a new war. Probably Iran.

They should have never opened back up the schools.

Biden-voting counties equal 70% of America’s economy. What does this mean for the nation’s political-economic divide?

I've concluded that anyone who still believes Cheeto has a chance to win is an idiot

really going out on a limb with that one...

its been interesting to me the past week or so watching people cling to hope by referencing tweets, videos, whatever from sources that are no more credible than the conspiracy nut that works down at the local vape shop. I guess they want to find hope wherever they can.

My hope is gridlock for 2 years, then the repubs take the house in 2022. That seems more realistic than talking about dominion voting processes and SCOTUS declaring the election invalid.

Wishing gridlock on your own country.

Classy

Damn. I was actually right for once.

I totally support the US having a small footprint in the middle east. Not some massive invading force, but small, strategic units who work with the locals and build alliances. That's why Trump's betrayal of the Kurds was so wrong. We had built up a strong relationship with them, an indigenous population that provided us with invaluable local intel and manpower, and Trump just pulled the plug on that, I guess b/c Erdoğan told him he wouldn't get a Trump tower in Istanbul if he didn't, so that was all it took for Trump to totally fuck a decades long strategic ally. We're going to be paying for Trump's bullshit for decades to come, so don't start fucking whining the next time there's a terrorist attack in this country, b/c you asked for it, or at the very least, supported the guy's "policies" that led to it...
