Now I see why they're using ICP and Eminem. They're both stationed from Detroit; this is a failed attempt to counter Trump's oft misinterpreted comments about the state of Detroit's economy. I believe ICP has "Juggalos," like with Swifties, it's a cheap way to get lots of votes from another fanbase.

As an aside, I haven't heard of Insane Clown Posse in YEARS. Even so, that was from an Aqua Teen Hunger Force cameo.

Again, this is coming from Poland from someone who knows almost nothing about the US voting process, but I'd find it extremely sus here.

From what I understand after reading this (and correct me if I'm wrong), the Biden curve is explained by tabulating all the mail-in votes for Biden at once. To me, that implies that mail-in votes are counted separately/at a different time than regular votes.
That's not how it works here.
First of all, there are no electronic voting machines in Poland, it's all paper ballots. When you go to vote in your local polling place, you must show your Polish ID to the worker, they check if you're present in the voter list that they have for that area. If you are, you sign your name in the voter list, you are given a ballot and can cast a vote.
When it comes to mail-in voting here, you have to let the government know that you're planning to vote by mail by a certain deadline (usually about a month before election day). Additionally, only those with a certified disability are eligible for mail-in voting, though that law was changed this year and now supposedly anyone can apply.
When you as a citizen apply and are chosen to work at a district/precinct electoral commission, you receive a text or email telling you that you and other members of your polling station have to meet at a specific date and place, with a government election official present. At that time, aside from selecting a chairman and vice-chairman and creating a work schedule for the members, you have to create "mail-in packets" for people who want to vote-by-mail in your district.
A mail-in packet includes: a set of instructions on how to vote by mail, a ballot (that has to be stamped by the local electoral commission, that is - you), written affidavit where a voter states that they cast a vote personally and in secret, a small envelope for the ballot and a bigger envelope for the whole packet where everything else is put. All of that has to be done publicly and with all the members of the commission present. When that is done, a mailman for the national mail carrier collects these and delivers them to the voters. As a voter, when you receive a mail-in ballot, you have to open the big envelope without damaging it too much, cast your vote, put your ballot into the small envelope, seal it, sign the affidavit and put everything into the big envelope.
On election day, the mail-in votes from the area are delivered to the polling place (either by the mailman or by the voter himself if they didn't send it by mail, we can't accept it from anyone else). The workers receive them, open the big envelope and check that the affidavit is present and correctly filled in and that the signature is present. If everything checks out, they annotate that fact in the voter list (that should already have an annotation made by the local government next to that name that this person was sent a mail-in ballot), attach the affidavit to the voter list and the small envelope with the ballot is put into the ballot box.
When election ends (usually at 9PM), the doors to the polling place are locked, the ballot box is opened, the small envelopes are opened and the ballots are treated as any other vote.

I'd find it sus if there even was a large number of mail-in votes in my local polling place (every polling place I've worked in had about 2000-3000 residents in its area, my city of 500k people had about 200 polling places). I've worked in about 6 elections in my life and I had to deal with mail-in votes maybe once. If there even was an attempt to deliver any "late mail-in votes" after 9PM I'd probably call the police and start livestreaming that shit.
As an aside the election results from like 99% of the country are available the very next day and all the results are known the day after that. The idea that you guys have to wait like a week or two for the results is preposterous and there should be riots over that.

TL:biggrin:R shit would be extremely sus here

That may be the case with ICP. Eminem, otoh, simply has to do whatever ICP says, because they pwned him and he is their bitch.

No, child, I know better than you or your families.

So the official line is that the family of the dead person mocked by Trump are defending Trump because...? Even this article gets into the "he said, she said" weeds and never addresses the insane logic of what they're claiming happened.

While each denial asserted that Trump never uttered the words “f---ing Mexican” while speaking about Guillén, none refuted that Trump didn’t cover funeral costs like he’d promised to do when the Guillén family visited the White House.

"Any suggestion that President Trump disparaged Ms. Guillen or refused to pay for her funeral expenses is absolutely false."

I draw the line in the dust and toss the gauntlet before the feet of tyranny, and I say total journo death now, total journo death tomorrow, total journo death forever.

top story in the post is the paper freaked out about Adderall-preppers in WNC.

I'm guessing this is a canary story to see how well Democrat doompilling stories will work in a couple weeks.
