Welp…that’s y’all’s president … Electoral College Upholds Trump Win For all those who were holding tightly to the thin glimmer of hope that members of the electoral college were going to abandon their state’s vote …we have bad news. Chester Cheeto is officially our commander-in-chief, though not for lack of effort on some of the college members. According to New York Times , a handful broke ranks from what their states decided: Presidential electors — and particularly Republican electors, who are bound by tradition and often state law to support Mr. Trump — were inundated with phone calls, emails and even threats demanding that they vote for someone else. Leaders of groups that were lobbying the electors had privately believed they had a chance to persuade enough Republican electors to defect, denying him an Electoral College majority and throwing the election to the House of Representatives. But by late Monday, only a handful of electors had broken ranks. While Mr. Trump’s opponents needed 37 Republican defectors to bring his electoral-vote tally below 270, the bulk of electors who broke ranks — four in Washington State — were Democrats who otherwise would have voted for Ms. Clinton. Instead, they voted for the former Republican secretary of state Colin L. Powell and Faith Spotted Eagle, a Native American tribal leader who has led opposition to the Keystone XL pipeline. Elsewhere, Democratic electors who sought to vote for someone besides Mrs. Clinton switched back to her under pressure or were replaced with Clinton supporters. In Texas, two Republican electors cast protest votes, one each for Ron Paul and Gov. John Kasich of Ohio. One other Republican opposed to Mr. Trump resigned and was replaced. A strategy memo by the anti-Trump forces has estimated that as many as 34 Republican electors were prepared to vote for someone besides Mr. Trump, but also said many were afraid of the consequences and suggested that a poor turnout of other anti-Trump electors would weaken their resolve. SMH! So had the additional few just manned up, we could have been rescued from an orange-tinted characature who can’t spell running the free world. It’s not as if anyone is shocked, though…
Sevyn Streeter Sings National Anthem In “We Matter” Jersey Remember when Sevyn Streeter was barred from singing the National Anthem for the 76ers because she wore a Jersey that said “We Matter” in reference to BLM? Well, she finally got her chance to hit the hardwood and sing the anthem in the controversial jersey over the weekend. The 76ers apologized and rescheduled her performance and she was more than pleased with the outcome: “I’m really excited. I’m feeling great. I’m happy that we were able to turn an unfortunate situation into something positive. I’m singing the anthem tonight. I’m wearing my ‘We Matter’ jersey. I was just able to play with kids from the Boys & Girls Club…I feel awesome.” Let’s hear how she did: NICE! Now, was that so hard, Philly? Instagram/YouTube
Philadelphia 76ers Apologize To Sevyn Streeter Remember when Sevyn Streeter put the Philly 76ers on blast for refusing to let her sing the national anthem over her “racially charged” BLM jersey? Well apparently in addition to some vocal outraged fans…a few players made it clear that they weren’t happy with indirectly being told that Black people shouldn’t declare that they matter. Via TMZ Sports : We know several players are upset. One player who wishes to remain anonymous says the decision to not let Sevyn sing has rubbed him the wrong way. It’s not like there’s a locker room revolt in the works — but as one team source puts it, “The organization owes Sevyn an apology and we hope that happens soon.” Well it looks like the organization heard them loud and clear…because next thing you know, the 76ers realized the error of their ways and shot an apology — and an invitation to return — to Sevyn for cutting her from the pre-game activities: “We are sorry that this happened. After receiving feedback from our players, basketball operations staff and ownership group, we believe that the wrong decision was made, and Sevyn should have been welcomed to sing. We apologize to her, and in an effort to move the conversation forward, we have reached out to offer her an opportunity to return and perform at a game of her choice. We are waiting to hear back.” We hope she accepts…and shows up in FULL Black Panther regalia next time, and performs “Lift Every Voice” instead of the anthem, with her fist up, while taking a knee… Instagram
