CNN may file a lawsuit against the White House for taking away Acosta's press pass. I see a potential suit on the basis of a First Amendment violation.

ANTIFA mob chanted outside Tucker Carlson's family home. They besieged the door, surrounded the house, screaming "We know where you live!!" while wife and kids were at home.
The Mainstream Media coverage on this? **crickets**

So Democrats didn't lose the Senate Election in Florida after all.

Currently Rick Scott leads Bill Nelson by just 17,000 Vote which is within Margin of error and triggers an automatic recount.

Absentee votes numbering over 100,000 are still be counted in Broward County which heavily populated by Democrats.with Bill Nelson Capturing about 69% of the Votes cast so far.

So I wouldn't be surprised if Bill Nelson is returned back to the senate as the official winner of the Election.

Broward County Supervisor of Election Brenda C. Snipes is a no nonsense woman so I expect her to make sure that every vote is counted.

Republicans definitely don't have Florida in the bag yet...
Re: American Politics Thread: Trump Is President-Elect! by LUCAS99: 1:52am On Nov 09, 2018
Also the Governorship Election between Republican Nominee Ron Desantis & Democrat Nominee Andrew Gillum is also headed for a recount.

Ron Desantis currently leads Andrew Gillum by less than 30,000 votes which is within the Margin of error.

As of today Absentee Ballots are still been counted in Broward County which heavily Populated by Democrats.

It wouldn't suprise me if Democrats become winners in both Governorship & Senate Races...

I was wondering why Brother Gillum and Senator Nelson conceded so fast when all the votes have not been counted. That corner of Broward County , Fort Lauderdale, Hilleah and the suburban cities are heavily Democratic area especially after the Puerto Ricans left for the mainland after the deadly hurricane. This news sweeten my heart and hopefully, the true winners will emerge without any hanky panky.

I live in Miami Dade County.

I can tell you that Miami Dade County, Broward County & Palm Beach County are all heavily Democrats.

Both Andrew Nelson & Andrew Gillum Won over 69% of the votes in those counties.

Ron De Santis & Rick Scott won mostly in the Florida Panhandle which is heavily Republican.

I will heading to the Broward County Election Department office tomorrow morning to determine the true state of affairs.

Every Vote must be counted & we hope to flip florida back to blue...

I'm also monitoring the results of the governorship election in Georgia.

Currently Brian Kemp leads Stacey Abrams by less than 60,000 votes which is within the margin of error.

I expect a recount plus a run off election to determine the true winner of the governorship election...

Good one. The election was so close that both Sen Nelson and Mayor Gulliam should have waited it out like Sister Abrams is doing in Georgia. Hopefully, the real truth is out. The Panhandle is heavily Republican because of its closeness to Southern Alabama. Very interesting scenario unveiling in Florida.

Yes . I know they have runoff law in The Peach State but I do not know if they do in Florida. Do they.

I don't think so.

But here is the tricky part

If the margin is less than 0.5 then a Machine recount is Required...

If the margin is less than 0.2 then a Human recount is Required which is the case in the Senate Race

So meaning that the over 8 million votes would be recounted manually by a human being...

That would be very interesting....

Based on the information available to me I heard Bill Nelson has enough votes in Broward County to emerge winner in the Senate Race

But Regarding the Governorship Election I don't have any information as to whether Andrew Gillum has enough votes in Broward County to emergy winner in the Governorship Race

Fox News Report: Trump played central role in hush payoffs to Stormy Daniels and Karen McDougal

https://www.foxnews.com/politics/report-trump-played-central-role-in-hush-payoffs-to-stormy-daniels-and-karen-mcdougal

As a presidential candidate in August 2015, Donald Trump huddled with a longtime friend, media executive David Pecker, in his cluttered 26th floor Trump Tower office and made a request.

What can you do to help my campaign? he asked, according to people familiar with the meeting.

Mr. Pecker, chief executive of American Media Inc., offered to use his National Enquirer tabloid to buy the silence of women if they tried to publicize alleged sexual encounters with Mr. Trump.

Less than a year later, Mr. Trump asked Mr. Pecker to quash the story of a former Playboy model who said they’d had an affair. Mr. Pecker’s company soon paid $150,000 to the model, Karen McDougal, to keep her from speaking publicly about it. Mr. Trump later thanked Mr. Pecker for the assistance.

The Trump Tower meeting and its aftermath are among several previously unreported instances in which Mr. Trump intervened directly to suppress stories about his alleged sexual encounters with women, according to interviews with three dozen people who have direct knowledge of the events or who have been briefed on them, as well as court papers, corporate records and other documents.

Taken together, the accounts refute a two-year pattern of denials by Mr. Trump, his legal team and his advisers that he was involved in payoffs to Ms. McDougal and a former adult-film star. They also raise the possibility that the president of the United States violated federal campaign-finance laws.

The Wall Street Journal found that Mr. Trump was involved in or briefed on nearly every step of the agreements. He directed deals in phone calls and meetings with his self-described fixer, Michael Cohen, and others. The U.S. attorney’s office in Manhattan has gathered evidence of Mr. Trump’s participation in the transactions.

To liberals, anyone appointed by Trump is clueless. Even the eminent Judge Kavanaugh was classified as clueless and wicked. Trump himself has been classified as clueless yet with all their cluelesness, they managed to attain heights in life that none of you have attained, heights that you can only dream of.
