Four Seasons Total Landscaping, the Philadelphia business smack dab between a crematorium and a sex shop, is in many ways, the heart and soul of America.
It also happens to be the place where former New York mayor Rudy Giuliani and other supporters of President Donald Trump’s failed reelection campaign addressed the press after media outlets called the race for his Democratic opponent Joe Biden.

I don’t know about everyone else, but I am mentally drained. In a good way though. After holding our collective breaths for almost a week straight, that exhale felt pretty damn good.

President-Elect Biden (That felt really good to type) is selecting his COVID-19 Advisory Board. (No, Dr. Fauci is not on it because he’s in government already and we’re not quite there yet. I’m sure he’ll have a big spot come January 20th though.) One name that people are talking about is this:
Joe Biden’s transition team announced the public health experts that will make up his coronavirus advisory board. They include Rick Bright, a whistleblower from the Trump administration who said his early warnings about the pandemic were ignored. https://t.co/YRbvXmEt15
Defeated loser and petulant man-child, Donald Trump, is refusing to admit that he lost the presidency in every way a person could lose the presidency and is vowing to fight this in court.
New: Trump plans to brandish obituaries of people who supposedly voted but are dead — plus hold campaign-style rallies — in an effort to prolong his fight against apparent insurmountable election results. @alaynatreene scoopshttps://t.co/E2Jgq35WrK
The evangelists are taking the loss in stride and not acting like complete lunatics at all!
