The Virginia Military Institute removed a 108-year-old statue of former professor and Confederate general Thomas J. “Stonewall” Jackson from its campus on Monday. The statue was lifted from its pedestal with a crane and is set to be relocated to a Civil War museum which is also operated by the college. “VMI does not define itself by this statue and that is why this move is appropriate. We are defined by our unique system of education and the quality and character of the graduates the Institute produces,” retired Maj. Gen. Cedric T. Wins, the school’s interim superintendent, said in a statement.
What’s Happening:Sure, the media says that Joe Biden will be the next president. Odd how we’ve hardly seen him lately, huh?Yeah, he broke his foot. But if you think that Hidin’ Basement Joe was gone, think again. When he did show up for election events, he could only muster a small crowd. And now the man with the lowest enthusiasm for a candidate in decades seems to be continuing that pattern.Because, blaming COVID, he wants to put on what might be considered the saddest inauguration in history. From IJR: Joe Biden said on Friday he plans a scaled-back event for safety’s sake during the pandemic…
China is a threat to the United States, "economically, militarily, technologically," Director of National Intelligence John Ratcliffe wrote last week in a Wall Street Journal op-ed.On Sunday, Ratcliffe told Fox News's Maria Bartiromo that the op-ed was more of an "intelligence briefing to the American people." (Video) So, one of the things I did in this piece was to work hard to try and get information declassified to a level that I could talk about.And one of the things you just mentioned, it's called gene editing. It's altering DNA. And it's one of the things our intelligence shows that China is doing.

This year has been a year unlike any other in recent memory and it will conclude with the return of a celestial event not seen for almost 800 years. The two largest planets in the solar system, Jupiter and Saturn, will do something later this month not seen since the Middle Ages: forming what looks like a double planet. This celestial event has been dubbed the "Christmas star." The rare occurrence will happen after sunset on Dec. 21, 2020, the start of the winter solstice.

How much has Fox gone over the slide? Chris Wallace showed just how far today during his interview with Health and Human Services Secretary Alex Azar. Wallace tried to attack President Donald Trump over mask wearing. (Tweet/Video) “If President Trump had worn a mask then and urged everyone to wear a mask then, back in April, the way Joe Biden is right now, wouldn’t we be in much better shape?” “We welcome Vice President Biden to the club,” Azar responded back, noting that the guidelines in April had included mask wearing and social distancing.

Monday, the Minneapolis City Council Budget Committee approved amendments to the proposed 2021 budget from the Safety for All Budget Plan that was proposed by a number of council members.
The amendments would redirect $7.77 million meant for the police department to "other approaches to preventing violence and building community wellbeing."

Seattle’s first-term Mayor Jenny Durkan announced on Monday that she won’t seek reelection. This almost ensures the unthinkable: Seattle will drift even further to the left.
The news didn’t come to me as a shock. I have been hearing rumors for the last couple weeks that Durkan was reconsidering reelection after being rendered powerless by a City Council that repeatedly stands in her way. After the last Council election, she was left with a majority of members who would never be her political allies.
At the same time, the mayor faced daily political pressure from the city’s most vocal and fringe activists, pressuring her to adopt their dangerous plans

Atlanta—Georgia’s governor is again telling lawmakers that he won’t call a special session to overturn Georgia’s election results and appoint 16 presidential electors who would support Republican President Donald Trump instead of Democratic president-elect Joe Biden.

There is a sense developing within Donald Trump's legal team and what remains of his campaign staff that their efforts to overturn or delay the results of the election are coming to an end, multiple sources tell CNN, despite what the President has said publicly.

The 2020 elections delivered a resounding victory for drug policy reformers, who won everywhere their proposals were put to a vote.

New Jersey's approval of marijuana legalization was expected.

A hearing will be held Monday morning in Atlanta for the Sidney Powell "Kraken" lawsuit, challenging Georgia's election results.
The hearing will begin at 10 a.m. in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Georgia. The presiding judge is Judge Timothy Batten.

In one corner, President Trump and his allies claim massive fraud cost him the 2020 election.
In the other, Democrats and sympathetic media allies argue that the vote was free and fair and that the charges of fraud amount to sour-grapes conspiracy mongering. Many allegations advanced by the president, his surrogates and supporters have been challenged and some have been dismissed by courts or debunked.
Still, in numerous instances, media fact checkers have not been diligent. They have simply run the allegations by state authorities and other officials who would have orchestrated the alleged fraud or had an interest in minimizing irregularities.

The Democratic Party’s biggest problem today is its struggle to win over working-class voters.
After President Trump’s 2016 victory, some political analysts argued that this problem was really all about racism. And Trump’s appeals to white nationalism certainly won him votes.
But it’s also clear that the Democrats’ weakness with working-class voters — defined roughly as people without a four-year college degree — is not only about race. Many Trump voters, after all, voted for Barack Obama in 2012, which suggests they’re not incorrigible racists.Perhaps even more telling is the shape of this year’s results. Not only did Trump again win by huge margins among working-class whites, but he also fared better

You may remember the strange case of Antrim County, the very pro-Trump red county, where the voting results professed to show that Joe Biden had won by a huge amount. Well, the election officials knew something was wrong when they saw it, knowing there was no way that happened.
But when they investigated, they found that somehow the votes had been switched. The Secretary of State, a Democrat tried to blame “human error” saying that an election official in the county hadn’t done an update which caused the result.
