The Odds of Biden Overcoming Trump's Lead in the Four Swing States Was 'Less Than One in a Quadrillion'
White House Press Secretary Kayleigh McEnany on Tuesday evening highlighted an incredible statistic that is included in State of Texas v. Pennsylvania, et. al.
“Expert analysis using a commonly accepted statistical test further raises serious questions as to the integrity of this election,” the lawsuit reads. “The probability of former Vice President Biden winning the popular vote in the four Defendant States—Georgia, Michigan, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin—independently given President Trump’s early lead in those States as of 3 a.m. on November 4, 2020, is less than one in a quadrillion, or 1 in 1,000,000,000,000,000.”
“The odds of Joe Biden winning all four of those states collectively is less than one in a quadrillion to the fourth power,” it continues.
Chances of Biden winning Pennsylvania, Michigan, Georgia, Wisconsin independently after @realDonaldTrump’s early lead is less than one in a quadrillion:
➡️ 1 in 1,000,000,000,000,000
Chances of him winning collectively is “one in a quadrillion to the 4th power”

The lawsuit asks the Supreme Court to block the “unlawful election results” in Georgia, Michigan, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin.
The analysis comes from Dr. Charles J. Cicchetti, Ph.D, a member of Pacific Economics Group, a senior advisor to Pacific Economics Group Research, and a professor of Economics at the University of Southern California. Though Justin Grimmer, a professor at Stanford University and a senior fellow at the Hoover Institute, says his claim “is based on an embarrassing and basic error in statistical reasoning.”

Did Death Row Inmates Get $20,000 EACH? The Scary Scope of California's COVID Unemployment Catastrophe Just DOUBLED

The scope of California’s COVID unemployment scandal is like the tip of the unseen iceberg. The losses to state taxpayers from a system that has turned out to be ridiculously easy to game are now twice what they were believed to be just days ago. Instead of $1 billion in fraud, the staggering losses could add up to $2 billion. Will it get worse?
As I reported at PJ Media earlier this week, district attorneys from all over California sounded the alarm on the fraud, which is being committed in real-time. They claim that the the Captain Edward Smith in this scenario, Governor Gavin Newsom, has done little to immediately stop it and needs to put the ship in full-rudder reverse or sink the state’s finances. They’ve implored him to engage and stop the unprecedented grift.
People have literally watched as the funds drain away from their state-issued unemployment cards by thieves who stole legitimate recipients’ identities. Prisoners — even murderers and rapists — had no problem applying for and receiving the special COVID unemployment benefits. San Quentin death row inmates received $20,000 each out of the COVID unemployment funds. Babies and small children were granted unemployment payments.
No one is checking to see if the recipients are legally able to claim the money. Prisoners are not allowed to receive unemployment benefits but are getting money anyway by using their prison addresses. And it looks as if people from outside of California — and even outside the country — have gamed the system and stolen money they’re obviously not entitled to. The governor, in fact, instituted a streamlined program to get the money quickly into the hands of recipients, but fail-safes obviously were minimal.
The Bank of America, tasked with implementing the EDD — Employment Development Division — says the program is even worse-off than they knew.
“Our assessment is that there is activity consistent with fraud in those accounts on the order of approximately $2 billion. … We also have detailed instances in which criminals not only withdrew initial funds provided by the State, but sought and received additional ‘temporary’ credit from Bank of America … essentially attempting to double-dip the fraudulent removal of funds.”
That’s right. Not only do thieves rip off the system but they then apply for credit from the B of A.
CBS LA reports that lawmakers are beginning to figure out how they’ll address the scam in their upcoming legislative session.
State Assemblyman Jim Patterson, R-Fresno, said he is beyond exasperated with the seemingly constant stream of problems at EDD.
“I have never seen anything like this in the 20 years I have been in public life,” he said. “Today, our first organizing day of the new legislative session, there are at least a dozen bills, probably more, by Republicans, Democrats, people on the Assembly and Senate side that are basically saying, ‘Here’s how you’re going to get your act together, EDD, and we’re gonna force it by rule of law.”
The San Jose Mercury News reports that doling out the money has apparently slowed up because there’s a backlog growing again of people requesting the special unemployment funds.
At this point, no one has confirmed whether the bank paid out the $2 billion or if that is simply how many claims have been made with no payout for the unemployment funds.
One thing’s for sure. Someone might be needing COVID-related unemployment.
The EDD is looking for a new director.
Qualifications include:
Taking phones offline.
Processing stall tactics.
Utilizing a TRS 80.
Multi-lingual in "i dont know."
Setting a high bar for Indian giving.
Lead by the low bar already set.
Must form a Satanic blood pact w/ the union.
Ability to roll tight joints A+

Captain Newsom has presided over a $1 billion mask imbroglio, multiple missteps on lockdowns, his own COVID hypocrisy, and now oversees the biggest scam in the history of California, according to a district attorneys group.
I have a feeling the iceberg’s still even bigger than we know.

New law allows Australia to scrap China Belt and Road plans
Australia can now veto plans between foreign governments and its states and territories, stymying China’s BRI hopes.
Under new laws, Australian Prime Minister Scott Morrison's government can block or curtail foreign involvement in a broad range of sectors
9 Dec 2020
Prime Minister Scott Morrison has new powers to veto or scrap agreements that state governments reach with foreign powers under laws that could stymie China’s Belt and Road Initiative in Australia and further inflame tensions between the trading partners.
The laws passed by Parliament on Tuesday will give the foreign minister the ability to stop new and previously signed agreements between overseas governments and Australia’s eight states and territories, and with bodies such as local authorities and universities.

Morrison’s government will be able to block or curtail foreign involvement in a broad range of sectors such as infrastructure, trade cooperation, tourism, cultural collaboration, science, health and education, including university research partnerships. An early target is likely to be an agreement the Victoria state government signed in 2018 to join President Xi Jinping’s signature infrastructure-building BRI.
The laws could further worsen ties between Australia and its largest trading partner, which have been in free fall since April, when the prime minister called for an independent probe into the origins of the coronavirus. Beijing has since inflicted a range of trade reprisals, including imposing crippling tariffs on Australian barley and wine while blocking coal shipments.
Relations hit a fresh low last week when a Chinese diplomat tweeted an image purporting to show an Australian soldier holding a knife to the throat of an Afghan child. After Morrison called for an apology for the “repugnant” post, a senior Chinese Foreign Ministry official dismissed the demand, questioning whether the Australian leader “lacks a sense of right and wrong.”
A spokesperson for China’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs late Tuesday urged Canberra to take “an objective and logical view on the ‘Belt and Road’ initiative and refrain from creating obstacles that prevent normal communication between China and Australia.”
Mounting Concerns
Victoria Premier Daniel Andrews told reporters last week his government wasn’t considering withdrawing from its BRI agreement due to the worsening ties, the Australian Associated Press reported.
China’s cooperation with Victoria on BRI has brought benefits to both sides, Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman Zhao Lijian said in August. “Australia should have an objective view of such cooperation and BRI, and not set up impediments for China-Australia cooperation.”
Beyond the BRI deal signed by Victoria, which aims to increase Chinese participation in new infrastructure projects, the law may allow the federal government to review and overturn memorandums of understanding between Beijing and the governments of Western Australia, South Australia and Tasmania in sectors ranging from investment, science cooperation and access to the Antarctic.
The states and territories have at least 130 agreements across 30 nations that could be affected by the new law, according to Morrison. The law will establish a public register to provide transparency to the foreign minister’s decisions and states and territories will be given three months to deliver a stock-take of their existing agreements.
Partnerships between Australian universities and Beijing-sponsored bodies could be scrapped. There is mounting concern in intelligence circles about China’s influence in universities, and a program under which academics sign over intellectual property rights to their work in return for research grants, the Australian newspaper reported in April.
Under the law, Morrison won’t be able to scrap deals between state governments and commercial companies or state-owned enterprises. That means the lease of a strategic port in Darwin, used by the U.S. military, to a Chinese company by the Northern Territory government in 2015 could not be overturned.
It’s the latest move by the government to safeguard national interests. Morrison also plans to toughen foreign investment screening, regardless of the size of the deal, for sectors such as telecommunications, energy and technology.https://www.aljazeera.com/economy/2020/12/9/australia-2
