World News Briefs -- November 13, 2020 (Evening Edition)

US President-elect Joe Biden has flipped five states from President Donald Trump's column 


President-elect Joe Biden has won 306 votes in the state-by-state Electoral College that decides who wins the White House, against 232 for Donald Trump, US media projected on Friday. 

Biden solidified his victory over Trump in the US election with a victory in traditionally Republican-leaning Georgia, called in his favor by CNN, ABC and other networks. Trump -- who also had 306 Electoral College votes when he beat Hillary Clinton in 2016 -- claimed victory in North Carolina, CNN and NBC projected, putting his final tally this time around at 232.

Lapides or someone reads a rag and then expects us to believe it.

Benfords law was violated all to Hell. If a statistics teacher, a real prof not a make believe prof like an English prof, said do a goodness of fit test on the elections returns from a major American city, You would come to the conclusion that it did not follow an exponential distribution.

IMO right now Lapides should be able to write a best selling novel. He like Ben Rhodes have the education for it, they do.But they lack one critical ingredient.

HONESTY

Well the rest of the entirety of the existance of the USA will definitely suck now. Higher taxes and endless wars is the best the future holds for this country not to mention the end of individual businesses that will be crushed by mega businesses in the name of COVID 19 Lock downs not to mention the division that will take place among the classes and culture looks like they took their plans straight out of the Yugoslavia play book.You people that support this are the real losers because 7 men couldn't render you a reason.

I owe my reading to of Breitbart to Fred Lapides. I had already liked Breitbart, read it everyday and then moved onto other papers.

But Fred Lapides under his zillion aliases bitterly bitched about it, so I revisited it. I read it 3 to 7 times a week now thanks to Fred Lapides.

Funny thing is Fred never got back to me on which stories that Breitbart carries and that I can find also at NYT are bad.

He said Breitbart carries bad, bad stories, but he could never point to one,

Sometimes I wonder if Fred Lapides is honest or has a brain.

Fred is not honest to everyone including himself. I seen this trend when trump decided to run for office. The hate is real and massive. May god help you Fred
