AS WE FINALLY CLOSE THE 2020 ELECTORAL VOTE COUNT, WHAT’S IT ALL ABOUT?
This morning (the voting was yesterday), the news was full of live shots of many states authorizing their electoral counts. And Mitch McConnell officially told the GOP it’s “time to move one; Joseph Biden is President-Elect.” Is this going to… Read More ›
BE CAREFFUL WHAT YOU WISH FOR BECAUSE YOU MIGHT JUST GET IT
