Trump Urges Georgia’s Raffensberger To Overturn Election : NPR

An angry President Trump pushed Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger, a fellow Republican, to overturn the state's presidential results, and appeared to at least partly blame him for what could be lower turnout in Tuesday's runoff elections that will decide control of the U.S. Senate, according to a recording of a phone call obtained by Georgia Public Broadcasting.

The stupidity of labeling Trump’s tweets

  1. The President tweets something stupid about the election being stolen and people are being lied to by the “lamestream media”.
  2. Twitter suffixes the tweet with the claim that the “facts of the tweet are disputed”
  3. And links to a series of “mainstream media” articles that show why the tweet is wrong

Does this offer anything beyond what one could get by Googling the tweet? It seems like it’s just reinforcing the message of the troll, as anybody who believes what the President says about the election, is certainly not going to believe the fact checks of the media.

Federal Fisheries

Why is the president complaining about the federal fisheries program that has existed since 1871? It’s almost entirely funded by the Federal Aid in Sport Fish Restoration Act, it’s only in the budget bill because it has to be lined out
