@Uncommon_Centss @alexchristy17 Agree about need for people to not react to Kimmel. But disagree this was a joke. It was political commentary. And, as such, is subject to the same reactions as other commentary. Kimmel used to be a comic. Then, he started taking himself way too seriously.

Jimmy Kimmel tried to clean up his comments about Markwayne Mullin being a former plumber, but he tried to have it both ways. First he doubled down ignoring Mullin's management experience with his plumbing company "[Trump's] apple polishers are all in a tizzy because I made light of the fact that his new head of Homeland Security, Markwayne Mullin, before he was a senator, was a plumber. And now he's the head of Homeland Security. Which is not necessarily the kind of resume you might hope for, for the person in charge of protecting us from terrorism" Later, he insists it has nothing to do with plumbers and is just about his ideas, "Let me make this very clear. I'm not upset that the head of Homeland Security used to be a plumber. I'm upset that he isn't still a plumber, okay?" Then why even mention the plumber aspect?

@exjon Agreed! I always thought it was “Withering”. Withering sounds like a misprint, and Heathcliff sounds like a cartoon character. Strike one and strike two! No need to risk strike three. I, too, am sitting this one out! 😉

@stonemangator44 @Garrett_Archer Ok, well make it real simple. The reports have nothing to do with counting ballots. Dem and Rep parties ask for reports so they can contact voters and get them to return ballots, aka “chase the vote”. The reports stop days early cuz there’s not time to chase unreturned ballots.

@Garrett_Archer Can you please explain how you debunked this. I am not even saying what the post you responded to is even true. I just am trying to figure out how you claimed you debunked it by saying its because they stopped counting the sent out ballots two weeks before Election Day.

Hi. I debunked this claim. It stems from data reports meant for political parties. One for sent ballots. One for received ballots. The sent ballots report stops two weeks before the elections, but the reveive file keeps going. Hence the 74k discrepancy. Maybe Google next time?
🇺🇸RealRobert🇺🇸@Real_RobN

And here it is: The Arizona Senate audit confirms, beyond a shadow of a doubt, that Trump is the legitimate president of the 2020 presidential election. Katie Hobbs inserted 74,243 mail-in ballots in the November 3, 2020 election that are tied to individuals and were returned and cast with no record of ever being sent out. 📝 U.S. Congress certified a criminal enterprise on January 6 — and they all know it.

@tylerbowyer Or, maybe next Census Repubs work harder to insure the count is complete! In 2020, AZ under Rep Gov put little work to max Census count. They were warned about the lack of effort, then were shocked when AZ count was lower than expected and AZ didn’t get an added Cong seat.

This number may go up dramatically for red states if census data is properly recorded and illegals are not counted and deported. It is believed census data was flawed underreporting citizens in red states and overreporting populations in blue states.

@johncanzanobft They might not have as much power to be narcissistic if certain schools, i.e. USC, Texas, and yes, your Oregon Ducks, had stood up for the greater good and not destroyed the PAC12. The schools supported this charade the entire way, and none of it was for the “greater good”.

Don't care if the college conference commissioners like each other and hang out. I do care if they can work together, avoid acting like a bunch of single-minded narcissists, and find some "greater good" in the solutions.

Q: Why did you buy a condo in Davenport?
Kari Lake@KariLake

Brohm (the Canadian who acts like an expert in American politics and American culture) seems to have a socialist viewpoints (at best). Many say he is a full-blown Communist who came into the United States from Canada and then proceeded to attack and criticize everything about our great homeland while seeking to become a citizen. 🤔I heard somebody say he will probably cry if the good people of Cuba and Iran are finally freed from the communist and Islamist tyranny. It seems like BR 🏳️‍🌈 has a raging case of TDS. Seek help, Brohm Rezznik.

@AverageWIPFan @slmandel And yet, even with the curse of the bye, they took the vaunted, SEC Texas Longhorns to two OT, and should have won had targeting been called on Texas.

Will wait until all 4 games are over to make any big conclusions, but the "bye" teams are now 0-5 in quarterfinals. Miami, 10 days off, looked much sharper in the first half and more physical throughout against Ohio State, 24 days off. Keep an eye on it tomorrow.

@MacnTsDaddy @SpikerIsAwesome @ASFleischman I’m sure you would have no problem if your ballot/vote was discarded because some clerk didn’t check some box. Is that the “responsibility” you’re referring to? 🙄

Here's the 315,000 vote issue as I understand it. 315,000 people voted early in Fulton County. Someone should have signed the machine count tallies, to show they were verified. /1

@Rasmussen_Poll Speaking of that hand-examined recount….didn’t it confirm the results reported by election officials? Interesting how election deniers conveniently ignore or dismiss the results of their own audit/recount. 🙄

The Guru here is a great Follow. A pure disinformation machine. The voter-volunteers of Maricopa County personally hand-examined over 2 million of their own 2020 ballots and the AZ Senate reported their findings. There was one legal 2020 ballot paper but ten types were found.

Grifters rely on the concept of fraudulent ballots to make all of these absurd fraud claims work. A break in the chain of custody is worthless without a fraulent ballot to exploit it. But no one has ever produced one. It's because they don't exist. It's far more difficult to inject fake ballots into tabulation systems than anyone will ever let on.

@wilnerhotline John, you’re usually right on with your analysis, but you botch this one. BYU did not look good in its two losses….but they were both to a top 4 team! Alabama looked no better in getting out by Georgia, but gets dinged nothing! No way Alabama deserves a spot.

BYU was blown out twice in the only two games it played against CFP-caliber teams. Cougars didn't have a solid case for inclusion. They actually had a stronger case last year when they beat a CFP team on the road -- a point I have been making for the past month
Mike Thomas@MikeTho10109060

@wilnerhotline BYU lost to 1 team and gets left out….total BS cause BYU is the only team getting penalized for being in the CCG

Abysmal start for BYU on both sides of the ball; Cougars will punt after going three and out to open the game offensively. Crowd sitting in stunned silence.

BYU historically loses at least one game each year to an inferior team. Turn average QB’s into stars. That’s one knock against Khelani Sitake. They already look lost on the field. Will they turn it around? 😳
