Ive been talking to loads of people recently and many Irish people are shifting towards Trump in recent days so when the Irish hand in their votes I can see us giving him nearly the maximum vote.

I really can't believe that, most Irish people are decent.

Can't believe Olly is still reeling them in after all these years.

Of course she'll sail through.

That was never in doubt.

KANNAPOLIS, N.C. (WBTV) – A man was arrested in Kannapolis with a van full of guns and explosives with plans to carry out an act of terrorism, including trying to assassinate Joe Biden.

An order filed in federal court earlier this month outlines the plans by a man identified as Alexander Hillel Treisman, who also used the alias Alexander S. Theiss.

In the order, a federal magistrate judge outlined the reasons why Treisman should continue to be held in jail on child pornography charges.

Per NY Times:

https://www.nytimes.com/live/2020/10/22/us/trump-biden-debate-tonight#russia-poses-a-bigger-election-threat-than-iran-many-us-officials-say

"Officials say Russia's ability to change vote tallies nationwide is limited."

So, Russia has the ability to change vote tallies

This should probably be much bigger news, as in the main story - not that it is new, but that it sort of, you know, leaves the election result open to being falsified

And why anybody thinks Russia would not falsify the result if they can beats me

Pope Francis called the Trump administration policy of separating children at the border "cruelty of the highest form" in a new documentary that premiered in Rome today.

"It's cruelty, and separating kids from parents goes against natural rights," the Pope says in the documentary "Francesco." "It's something a Christian cannot do. It's cruelty of the highest form."

It's been fairly evident since the Trump Tower meeting that Donald is relying heavily on Russia to keep him in power.
This is why mail-in ballots are a better solution than booths as these can be tampered with by Russian meddling. Sounds old-school but at least you get an accurate tally at the end of counting rather than an electronic number that may be false and helping Trump.

The pope is absolutely correct.

It beggars belief that any moral person could support a policy like this, especially anyone who is a parent.

Seems the Republicans are anti-Catholic

Not just anti-Catholic, anti-Christian

That's all you got??

Is the pope correct in your opinion?

Strong opening by Biden here

Having an actual debate does not suit Trump

He'll surely throw a massive tantrum soon

Trump going to war on plexiglass

The one thing that has been least intrusive since being introduced due to Covid, and unsurprisingly he's against it
