We, at least, those of us who believe Biden won in a fair and honest election, should breathe a sigh of relief today. December 8 is known as safe harbor day. It’s the day, under federal law, when Congress must count the electoral votes from states that act by Dec. 8 to choose their presidential electors — the people who meet next week in each state to cast the actual votes for president. In other words: today, the determinations of the states cannot effectively be challenged — by Trump, Giuliani or anyone else. Sigh…but this is Trump and his disconnected family. While thousands continue to die from COVID on a daily basis, Melania Trump made a big announcement yesterday – The White House is adding a tennis pavilion! In the meantime: New study shows that county-level racism associated with increase in COVID-19 cases; Hispanic unemployment been cut in half?; and New UN report reveals just how many Central Americans will have been forced from their homes by end of 2020.
