I think she's considered 'Far Left' in the US, but given how far right of our centre their centre is, that's not really saying much.

The yanks haven't got a left-wing party of any consequence, by global standards. The Dems and Reps are centre-right and hard-right respectively.

It was expected that the Georgia election recount wouldn't change the original result.

Biden has fractured his foot whilst playing with his dog!  :o  No doubt the White House idiot will be crowing about that on Twitter. >:(

At least Biden only broke a bone in his foot.
Every time Trump opens his gob, he plants his foot in it.

Trump is apparently inciting violence according to this election official. If that is true things are going from bad to very much worse in the US. :o

The state of Texas is trying to overturn the results in the swing states in a hope to get it to the Supreme Court source the Independent.

After 3 everybody, the republican right are full of shite, deep in the heart of Texas.

The US Supreme Court chucked out Trump's latest crazy stunt.

Roll on January 20th.

The Electoral College is at this moment engaged in its task of voting for the next president of the USA. It will elect Joe Biden.

It is now official that Biden has won, thank goodness. It is about time their crazy electoral system is sorted out.

Now there is phone-call gate: the whole nonsense is beyond satire now, and this episode is no more that brazen corruption.

The sooner that awful man is out of office the better it will be for his country and the world.

Agreed, but short of tranq shooting him how do they expect to get him out of the White House in order to let the Biden's in?

Trump is making American politics and politicians into very sick jokes!

It's simple, at midday on January 20th he ceases to be the president of the United States. At that moment, if he's in the Whitehouse, he is a trespasser on government property. He will be escorted out - forcibly, if necessary.

According to a report in a Scottish paper today, there has been a request for a high profile military flight (using a code name) from the US landing at Prestwick for the 19th January - which is just up the road from Turnberry hotel/gold course (which Trump owns). The speculation is that Trump will be in Scotland when Biden is inaugurated, which may also contravene Covid restrictions here.

If Trump does land in Scotland, he should not be permitted to get out of the plane and pollute that fair land with his evil presence! >:(

Since presumably he would be staying as owner, not sure how it could be in breach of covid restrictions. We are still allowing people to fly in.

The article says that Trump Turnberry is closed under Tier 4 restrictions until 5th Feb but, as you say, since he's the owner that might not matter since he wouldn't be a commercial customer.
