Yep. Most likely based on the lower courts rulings most appeals courts won’t even choose to hear these appeals.I will appeal this judges finding on a point that I neither raised nor provided evidence for at the original hearing which I’m appealing

Which shows just how spurious these cases must be, it’s usually not hard to find at least one ground of appeal in even the most ridiculous of cases!

If Trump's Supreme Court can't even overturn Obama Care, I don't see them overturning this election. It's not even close.

Opinion: The story I had to share after Kyle Rittenhouse posted his $2 million bail
Elizabeth Leiba, writing about why the donations made to bail RIttenhouse out made her remember the time she was a sophomore in college in 1993 and was wrongfully accused of stealing after batteries in her backpack triggered an alarm at a pharmacy, looks at the different ways White people are...
www.cnn.com
Kyle Rittenhouse is a clear example of "innocent until proven guilty". Many people from the right, likely all white are giving him the benefit of the doubt and believe there is enough evidence to prove he acted in selfdefense and came to his aid helping to fund his bail.
Meanwhile, black people under just allogations of theft are stuck in jail until their trial because they can't afford bail. One example recently giving in comparison to Rittenhouse is a guy who spent 3 years in jail over the allegations of a backpack. 2 of those years were spent in solitary confinement.
The author of the article has his own experience. Back in the 90's he was dropping of a backpack full of film to develop. When he left the store the antitheft system sounded. A pack of batteries he had previously purchased set it off. He had the receipt, but under pressure he wasn't able to immediately produce it. He was called into a back room and asked to sign a document admitting guilt and containing something about trespassing. He was only given the option to immediately produce the receipt or sign the document. He asked them to check surveillance video and it would prove his innocence. They didn't even entertain the idea. And when he would not sign the document because he didn't steal anything the police were called and he was arrested.
More than 5 hours later when his mom was able to make the drive to the police station and bail him out he was able to find the receipt right away. Charges were dropped. He was treated like he was guilty until proven innocent. They filed a lawsuit against the store. But they would not admit to any wrong doing and fought the lawsuit all the way saying they did no wrong and had probable cause.
It's eye opening seeing how the experience of black people is so different than white people. That they are not given any benefit of doubt and are presumed guilty until proven innocent.
I need to find the full story and read it. It was only briefly mentioned in this article
And now, back to more of the same:
Two former government officials who may now run President-elect Joe Biden’s national security team have been partners at a private equity firm now promising investors big profits off government business because of its ties to those officials, according to government documents reviewed by The Daily Poster.
“The reputations and networks of Pine Island Capital Partners’ team, both individually and collectively, will ensure exposure to a significant number of proprietary opportunities,” the company said in one SEC document. “We believe there will be increased demand in the U.S. defense market for advanced electronics, communications, sensor and detection processing and other technologies that enhance the modernization efforts of the Department of Defense’s military readiness. We believe this demand represents strong growth that our management team is uniquely positioned to capitalize on given our combined investment experience and deeply connected partner group of former U.S. defense and government officials.”
"This is so explicit that it's astonishing Pine Island even put it on paper,” said David Segal of Demand Progress, a grassroots group pressing Biden to reject Cabinet appointments tied to corporations. “This is not an example of people who happen to work at a big company — these are partners at a firm whose stated business model is to profit from the revolving door and connections gained from time in government."

Potential Biden Officials’ Firm Is Promising Big Profits Off Those Connections
Former government officials Tony Blinken, Michele Flournoy & Lloyd Austin may run Biden’s national security agencies — their firm is telling investors it expects to profit off ties to those officials.

A good article about what I think is a VERY important piece going forward. The FLAG should not belong to a political party, reclaim it!

‘Time For My Flag to Go Up’: How Anti-Trumpers Are Reclaiming the American Flag
Over the past four years, the flag has been recast as a kind of MAGA shorthand. Now, Trump foes are ready to take the symbol back.
