Monday and the last day of November 2020. Our Christmas tree and outdoor lights are all lit up. Don’t hate me.
There is so much going on that it’s hard to keep up with. I thought today I’d offer one of my occasional round ups that gives a brief synopsis and a link to several news stories worth keeping an eye on.
President Trump appears to doubt his election fraud case will make it to the U.S. Supreme Court
“President Donald Trump said on Sunday that it might be difficult to get his election fraud allegations heard before the U.S. Supreme Court, expressing doubt about his legal strategy as his hopes of overturning the Nov. 3 election dwindle.
“‘The problem is it’s hard to get it to the Supreme Court,’ Trump said in a telephone interview with Fox News. ‘I’ve got the best Supreme Court advocates, lawyers that want to argue the case if it gets there.'”

In an event like a national presidential election that has mountains of evidence of voter fraud, it seems to me that SCOTUS should be willing to hear the case. The trust we have in our civic institutions is at enormous risk.
Reasons why the 2020 presidential election is deeply puzzling
“We are told that Biden won more votes nationally than any presidential candidate in history. But he won a record low of 17 percent of counties; he only won 524 counties, as opposed to the 873 counties Obama won in 2008. Yet, Biden somehow outdid Obama in total votes.”
The Spectator
That’s only one of the several reasons listed in that article. You’ll never, ever, convince me that Biden won this election.
NYC Will Have Covid Checkpoints at Key Bridges and Crossings
“New York City will have vehicle checkpoints at key bridges and crossings, and will strictly enforce the travel quarantine, Sheriff Joseph Fucito said.
“The sheriff’s office will conduct spot checks when out-of-state buses drop riders off at the curb. Test and tracing teams will be on the ground to direct individuals to testing sites and provide education on quarantine, Fucito said.”
Bloomberg
Does anyone else get a Nazi-esque feeling from this? Papers, please!
Iran’s top nuclear scientist was assassinated on Friday
“Iranian state television said an old truck with explosives hidden under a load of wood blew up near a sedan carrying Fakhrizadeh. As Fakhrizadeh’s sedan stopped, at least five gunmen emerged and raked the car with gunfire, the semiofficial Tasnim news agency said.”
The Times of Israel
I’m relieved the guy is gone. It’s a dangerous game, but the fewer the experts working for our enemies, the better.
Infographic: The 4-Year-Long Campaign Against Trump
“The post-election push to pressure President Donald Trump to concede, despite numerous credible allegations of voter fraud and ongoing legal challenges, is not an isolated incident.
“It is the culmination of a four-year-long campaign against him, which started during his first run for president in 2016 when the FBI launched a politically motivated investigation of his campaign. During his subsequent four years in office, there have been consistent efforts to remove him from office, first through the Russia-collusion narrative and then through impeachment.”

Well, yes. And it’s helpful to have it all in one place, with a summary of each effort to sabotage his presidency. Read the whole thing.
