If the two Georgia seats go to the Democrats, the Senate will be split 50-50,
but the Democratic half will represent 41,549,808 (Forty-five million!) more people than the Republican half.
This is America’s anti-democratic Senate, by the numbers:

Trump administration makes last-minute move to sell oil rights in Arctic refuge
The move is controversial and is opposed by environmentalists and several major banks.

The Trump administration is reportedly planning to make the most of its final months in office before President-elect Joe Biden is sworn in, formalizing plans to offer parts of the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge (ANWR) up for leasing contracts for oil and gas drilling.

WASHINGTON D.C.—As President Donald Trump has insisted he will not concede the election until all legal ballots have been counted, he has started an unusual project: construction of an even larger white house next to the current White House.

“If Biden insists on this completely fraudulent election,” Trump told the press, “then I guess he can have this dinky little fixer-upper I’m currently living in. In the meantime, I’ll be moving into the much better house next door!”

The new house being built at 1602 Pennsylvania Avenue looks much like the current White House, but it’s twice as big and has “TRUMP” painted in big letters on the front.

“So when foreign diplomats come to Washington D.C. to meet the president,” Trump explained, “they’re going to get here and see two houses and say to themselves, ‘Which one does the president live in?' And what do you think they'll pick? The tiny one that looks like the house of some sleepy fraud or the much bigger, much nicer house that looks like a leader lives in it?”

Joe Biden insisted he didn’t mind the new construction and pointed out that having the largest, most expensive house in a neighborhood usually isn’t the best investment. Trump countered by pointing out that the advantage of having the largest, most expensive house is that you have the largest, most expensive house.

"What’s Wrong with Trump’s Investigating Election Fraud?"
What's wrong? Maybe they just don't want clearity...
Maybe that's the reason...
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MA8a2g6tTp0


It’s certainly possible that Joe Biden’s election is legitimate. But it’s also possible that it’s not. What’s wrong with Trump investigating it now rather than have the fraud surface 30 years from now, as it did in the case of Lyndon Johnson? Surely, the mainstream media wouldn’t want another illegitimate Democrat president, would it?

How Trump made America small again.

RCEP: Asia-Pacific countries form world's largest trading bloc

Fifteen countries have formed the world's largest trading bloc, covering nearly a third of the global economy.

The Regional Comprehensive Economic Partnership (RCEP) is made up of 10 Southeast Asian countries, as well as South Korea, China, Japan, Australia and New Zealand.

The pact is seen as an extension of China's influence in the region.

The deal excludes the US, which withdrew from a rival Asia-Pacific trade pact in 2017.

President Donald Trump pulled his country out of the Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP) shortly after taking office. The deal was to involve 12 countries and was supported by Mr Trump's predecessor Barack Obama as a way to counter China's surging power in the region.

On Fox News, Dr. Scott Atlas encourages large holiday gatherings: “For many people this is their last Thanksgiving”
DR. SCOTT ATLAS: This kind of isolation is one of the unspoken tragedies of the elderly who are now being told don't see your family at Thanksgiving. For many people this is their final Thanksgiving, believe it or not. What are we doing here? I think we have to have a policy, which I have been advocating, which is a whole person, whole health policy. It's not about just stopping cases of COVID. We have to talk about the damage of the policy itself. ...

38 percent of Americans planning on having Thanksgiving dinner with 10 or more people
About 40 percent of U.S. residents say they plan to gather in groups of 10 or more people this holiday season, according to a recent survey from Ohio State University (OSU) Wexner Medical Center.

Nearly 33 percent of respondents said they would not require friends or family to wear masks at Thanksgiving gatherings, and 25 percent said they would not practice social distancing, according to the poll.
The survey comes just before Thanksgiving and amid an alarming surge of coronavirus cases across the United States.

State leaders and health experts including the nation's top infectious disease expert Anthony Fauci warned against congregating indoors with large groups of people amid the coronavirus. In addition, individuals 65 and older should exercise greater caution when attending gatherings, as COVID-19 symptoms are statistically more fatal among older adults. ...

Kissinger Warns Biden of U.S.-China Catastrophe on Scale of WWI
Former U.S. Secretary of State Henry Kissinger said the incoming Biden administration should move quickly to restore lines of communication with China that frayed during the Trump years or risk a crisis that could escalate into military conflict.

“Unless there is some basis for some cooperative action, the world will slide into a catastrophe comparable to World War I,” Kissinger said during the opening session of the Bloomberg New Economy Forum. He said military technologies available today would make such a crisis “even more difficult to control” than those of earlier eras.

“America and China are now drifting increasingly toward confrontation, and they’re conducting their diplomacy in a confrontational way,” the 97-year-old Kissinger said in an interview with Bloomberg News Editor-in-Chief John Micklethwait. “The danger is that some crisis will occur that will go beyond rhetoric into actual military conflict.”

Genau dasselbe. Es wird bitter werden.

Anders als Weihnachten ist Thanksgiving hier mehr das Fest der grossen Famileinzusammenkuenfte. Normalerweise der groesste Reise Event des Jahres. Alle Verwandte von nah und fern kommen angereist, Von Kueste zu Kueste. Leute. die sich ueber's Jahr sonst nicht gesehen haben. Und dann hocken, schlafen und wohnen, die alle zusammengepackt dicht bei dicht fuer 4-5 Tage aufeinander. Katastrophal zu diesem Zeitpunkt.

Weihnachten ist ein bisschen anders. Das ist mehr eine direkte eigene Familienangelegenheit in kleineren Gruppen. Aber natuerlich auch mit einer wahnsinnigen shopping season, wo die Geschaefte und Indoor Malls gewoehnlich ueberfuellt sind. Und natuerlich die Church services.

Das ist dann noch mal 4 Wochen tiefer in die derzeit anrauschende Ansteckungswelle. Kann man also dieses Jahr alles vergessen. Wir sind noch nicht mal sicher, ob unser Juengster, der in Chicago wohnt, ueberhaupt zu uns hieraus kommen sollte.

State GOP lawmakers say they'll seek to impeach Whitmer
Michigan state Rep. Matt Maddock (R) said on Sunday that he and a “growing list of Michigan Legislators” will work to impeach Gov. Gretchen Whitmer (D).
This announcement comes a day after Michigan health officials announced new, targeted restrictions set to begin on Wednesday that affect bars, restaurants and schools. Restaurants and bars will be allowed to operate only outdoor dining, and all high school and college classes must be conducted remotely.

The new restrictions come amid rising COVID-19 cases in Michigan and across the country. Michigan recorded 499 new cases of COVID-19 on Nov. 15, according to a tracker from The New York Times, a 113 percent increase on the 14-day average.

After Big Thanksgiving Dinners, Plan Small Christmas Funerals, Health Experts Warn
Mississippians should plan “to have very small Thanksgiving gatherings” with only nuclear family members this year to stay safe amid the COVID-19 pandemic, Mississippi State Health Officer Dr. Thomas Dobbs and other public health officials warned on Friday.

“You’re going to have a lot of sick folks who caught (COVID-19) during Thanksgiving. We know this is the perfect milieu, having young folks and old folks and folks with chronic illness around the table—and then death,” Dobbs said during a sober Mississippi State Medical Association Zoom meeting with fellow physicians on Nov. 12.

Iran’s oil exports, uranium stockpile surge as Trump administration’s ‘maximum pressure’ policy hits a wall
Last week, as the White House digested news of a defeat at the polls, Trump administration officials were greeted with reports of troubling setbacks on two fronts in the country’s long-simmering conflict with Iran.

First came a leaked U.N. document showing yet another sharp rise in Iran’s stockpile of enriched uranium. Then, satellites tracked an Iranian oil tanker — the fourth in recent weeks — sailing toward the Persian Gulf after delivering Iranian petroleum products to Venezuela.

The first item was further proof of Iran’s progress in amassing the fissile fuel used to make nuclear energy and, potentially, nuclear bombs. The second revealed gaping holes in President Trump’s strategy for stopping that advance. Over the summer, the administration made a show of seizing cargo from several other tankers at sea in a bid to deter Iran from trying to sell its oil abroad. Yet Iran’s oil trade, like its nuclear fuel output, is on the rise again.

The Trump administration is entering its final months with a flurry of new sanctions intended to squeeze Iran economically. But by nearly every measure, the efforts appear to be faltering. The tankers that arrived in Venezuela in recent weeks are part of a flotilla of ships that analysts say is now quietly moving a million barrels of discounted Iranian oil and gas a day to eager customers from the Middle East to South America to Asia, including China.

The volume represents a more than tenfold increase since the spring, analysts say, and signals what experts see as a significant weakening of the “maximum pressure” sanctions imposed by the Trump administration since it withdrew from the Iran nuclear deal in 2018. ...

Iran’s Pact With China Is Bad News for the West
Tehran’s new strategic partnership with Beijing will give the Chinese a strategic foothold and strengthen Iran’s economy and regional clout.

A recently leaked document suggests that China and Iran are entering a 25-year strategic partnership in trade, politics, culture, and security.

Cooperation between China and Middle Eastern countries is neither new nor recent. Yet what distinguishes this development from others is that both China and Iran have global and regional ambitions, both have confrontational relationships with the United States, and there is a security component to the agreement. ...
