Predictions that I have seen are 221-214 for Team Red. FauxNews has it at 204-187 right now. I can say that many of the races are probably close, within the number of outstanding mail-in ballots. My wife's mail-in ballot did not arrive until Friday. For instance, MD-06 is separated by 300ish votes and a recount has been triggered as well.

As Ivan Throne mentioned earlier today, we have been given a reprieve to further prepare and train; use the time wisely. I'll be planning my escape from Maryland in earnest with a thanks to the Creator for the blessing of time. Maybe Trump keeps his promises. Dismantling a good chunk of the administrative state will go a long way.

It was a little surprising seeing Ivan say that. I gave them a little money for their fresh water delivery after Helene, but I have not become part of The Company.

Very grateful for the seeming reprieve. I hope predictions for the house hold true. Seems fishy though, such a landslide and no predicted movement at this point in House numbers.

I smell a big rat there with the House races. Most undecideds are on the West Coast in states that are one party entities with ballot harvesting. Losing the House means the Left controls the purse and everything will have to be a compromise.

That's the thing, who is going to believe it but their true believers, an overwhelming victory but the opposite in the House. Adjudicating it would take all the energy that would otherwise be directed at policy. Meanwhile Fox News tonight is utterly oblivious.

Sim said it, they control the money. Compromised blackmail.

While it’s true that not taking the House would be a blow to Trump’s ability to govern (and this extended counting is extremely fishy), a large part of the good he could do in this term is massively reducing the size and reach of the administrative state. This is largely within the power of the executive branch as it’s all done through the Cabinet agencies, so hopefully at least he, Elon, Ron Paul, RFK etc can get that done at least to some extent whichever way the House goes.

True. But if the House is stolen it could suck the air out of the room.

Oh for sure, it will be much better if the R’s hold the House but I’m just saying all is not lost even if they don’t.

"We the People" saved ourselves. But the enemy still had an Ace up their sleeve. Have to keep an eye on them.
