Kellyanne has more "alternate facts".

This time she's saying we imagined all the shortages we had at the beginning of the pandemic in early 2020 because “there was no supply chain crisis.” I guess it just impossible for the Trump people to tell the truth about anything.

“We have it totally under control. It’s one person coming in from China. It’s going to be just fine.”

Trump praises China’s handling of the coronavirus: “China has been working very hard to contain the Coronavirus. The United States greatly appreciates their efforts and transparency. It will all work out well. In particular, on behalf of the American People, I want to thank President Xi!”

“This will be the biggest national security threat you face in your presidency...This is going to be the roughest thing you face" Trump’s National Security Advisor to Trump

"The lack of immune protection or an existing cure or vaccine would leave Americans defenseless in the case of a full-blown coronavirus outbreak on US soil,...This lack of protection elevates the risk of the coronavirus evolving into a full-blown pandemic, imperiling the lives of millions of Americans.” [Memo from Trump Trade Advisor Peter Navarro]

“We pretty much shut it down coming in from China.”

“It’s also more deadly than even your strenuous flu... This is deadly stuff” [Trump in a private interview with Bob Woodward from The Washington Post made public on Sept. 9, 2020]

Newt Gingrich blasts Kamala Harris: She's an 'absurdity'

Yep though the 78 year-old Gingrich used a different word to bash the first non-white woman Vice President on Fox News, it all means the same. While most find Paul, Jordan, Gaetz, and Taylor Greene weird, at least they were born after WWII and the Korean War. And having party leaders in their mid to late 70s is not just in the Republican Party considering the ages of the President and Speaker of the House.

Guess neither party trust those "young whippersnappers" in their late 50s or early 60s.

But more people attended my rallies so it must be voter fraud!

And that is the bases for all the unproven/false/groundless election fraud claims Trump made and is still making. Crowd size can be used as a ballpark estimate of the final outcome, but depends on where the rallies are held. Drawing 20,000 people in Beaufort, S.C. a state he easily won doesn't translate into votes in De Pere, WI where only 750 people attended that rally.

His aides and advisers knew that crowd "size didn't matter" in the states he would easily win, but it mattered in the swing states and while just a guess, his people probably decided not to tell him the facts. And we're talking about a guy's golf cheating that is legendary; “He kicks the ball out of the rough so many times the caddies call him Pelé.”

We know all about his ego so is it possible because of it his thought process and in his mind, the only way he could lose is if he was cheated?

Did you see where Biden wants to give illegal aliens $450,000?

There is a difference between crossing the border illegally and seeking asylum, but that didn't stop the Trump administration from separating families. A Federal Judge order the government to pay those families and it could cost up to $450,000 per victim. 

Had the Biden Administration been responsible, they could have fought the compensation in courts. But which Biden Lawyer could seriously argue Trump had good attentions when separated families?

Trump is claiming WSJ is "white-washing his facts"

That's because the Wall Street Journal fact-checked Trump's letter to the editor. Tuesday will mark one year since Trump was legally defeated in his bid for a second term, but we're still hearing claims, without proof of course, of widespread election fraud. 

"Some of Mr. Trump’s figures appear to come from amateur spelunking into voter data, Caveat emptor when this is done by motivated partisans unfamiliar with election systems. The ‘audit’ team in Arizona asserted that Maricopa County received 74,000 more mail votes than were sent out. This was debunked as a misunderstanding of the files.”

Orange45 will never do an Emily Litella and say "never mind" even after court after court found his widespread election fraud baseless. He said ingesting disinfectant might be a cure for the coronavirus; wonder if Lysol could cure the effect his Kool-Aid has on his MAGA Supporters.

Did the religious right ask too much?

According to the Supreme Court they did when a group of Maine health care workers objected to the Covid-19 vaccine on religious grounds. In his decent Neil Gorsuch claims that a law is constitutionally suspect “if it treats ‘any comparable secular activity more favorably than religious exercise.’”

When deciding exemptions for any reason, shouldn't “Logic clearly dictates that the needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few*.” be asked?

Every day another January 6 rioter is speaking out.

Capitol-riot defendant calls for Trump to be 'ostracized from any political future' and says January 6 was a 'disgrace'

Not the first time a large group of people didn't understand exactly what they were following when they played "follow the leader". At least 25 people were killed in 2020 during what they thought was going to be their 1st Amendment Right to peacefully protest. Regardless what the protest is about, IMO if saw some of the other protesters packing AKs, 15s, and other similar stuff, I'd start doubting that it was going to be a peaceful protest and get out of Dodge.

Don't know if Trump can be forced to testify or even appear at one of these trials, but expect to see more of the defendants pointing a finger toward Mar-a-Lago.

Some people would rather discuss politics than discuss lottery games.

So that's why recently my Blog has more political type entries. When I started posting, I was blocked on several Blogs, but at least two of the people blocking me had no problem posting on my open Blog. Didn't mind the utter nonsense and bald faced lies posted by one of them, but once the childish grade school name calling began, I told them if it didn't stop, I had no choice but to block them. 

The last time I looked 18 is the minimum age to purchase a lottery ticket so it should be obvious most people posting on LP are adults, but apparently a few are suffering from the "peter pan" syndrome. I still have a PM from several years ago where a member childishly asked me to give another member "1 star" rating on a thread, I suppose for paybacks or something equally juvenile. 

Anyways have lottery related stuff to discuss and need real input, not childish name calling.

Could this be true?

Bombshell Report Says White House Staffers, GOP Members of Congress Met With Jan. 6 Organizers — Even Promised Pardons

We'll know pretty soon because the trials of the people arrested are beginning and if found guilty some are facing up to 20 years in prison and $500,000 fines. Maybe a few will decide to tell under oath what really lead up to January 6.
