BREAKING: Jon Ossoff Defeats David Perdue! Democrats Regain The Senate!

Jon Ossoff defeats David Perdue.

BLACK LIVES MATTER

PROTECT BLACK WOMEN! 

WEAR A DAMN MASK! SAVE A LIFE!

GOOGLE'S BLOGGER IS TRASH!

GUN VIOLENCE IS THE NUMBER ONE THREAT IN THE UNITED STATES!

With the Blogger interface, it is getting harder to make blog posts. I am not kidding.

The way they rolled this interface out maybe the death knell for the once beloved media platform.

I am not going to lie, this is frustrating and I am going to make my postings shorter and quicker now.

We are covering the chaos at the U.S. Capitol where Trump supporters have breached the steps of the federal building. We heard that a woman was seriously injured and we got word that many of these rioters have stolen property from the offices of lawmakers.

The run off is over. While this is going on, its a bittersweet victory for the Democrats. 

Sen-elects Raphael Warnock and Jon Ossoff.

They will retake the senate with the wins in Georgia. Thank you Stacey Abrams for getting Georgians out to vote. With election turnout this high, the Democrats won the state of Georgia and claim two seats. Seats that went to Max Cleland and Zell Miller. 

Zell Miller was the last Democrat to have that seat.

Sen. David Perdue (R-GA) is defeated by Democrat Jon Ossoff. 

Ossoff who lost to Karen Handel in one of the most expensive and closely watched House races in the country came back from the brink of defeat and defeated the one term senator in a run off that many expected to favor Republicans.

Ossoff and Raphael Warnock defeated two embattled Senators.  Never thought this could happen.

Sen-elect Warnock (D-GA) defeated Sen. Kelly Loeffler (R-GA) in the race giving the state its first African American senator.

Sen-elect Ossoff (D-GA) will be the first Jewish senator from the state of Georgia. He will be sworn in shortly as well as Warnock.

Georgia Republicans are blaming President Donald J. Trump for the defeat. The president's actions in the wake of his defeat weakened Perdue and Loeffler.

The United States senate will convene later tonight to continue the Electoral College.

David Perdue heads home.

Kamala Harris, the Vice President-elect as well as Vice President Mike Pence were moved to a safe location after the U.S. Secret Service and Capitol Police said the protesters moved into the building.

Harris, currently a California senator will resign soon. 

The Georgia run off races were closely watched and it was a major determination into whether Republicans can block Joe Biden's cabinet members and court picks. The Republicans failed at messaging and they couldn't wrangle enough support given Trump's feud with the governor Brian Kemp and Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger.

Ossoff, a media consultant and activist managed to break through a wall of red to become a senator. That means, Arizona and Georgia will now have two senators who are Democrats.

Kyrsten Sinema and Mark Kelly both defeated Martha McSally in two Senate races.

McSally, a staunch Trump supporter was defeated by Sinema in a closely watched race in 2018. She was appointed to be a senator in 2019 and was defeated by Kelly in another closely watched race. She will be the first Republican in Arizona to lose two U.S. senate races.

Loeffler who joined the Senate in 2020 to replace Johnny Isakson faced heat after she quickly dumped stock when the coronavirus pandemic spread into the United States.

Perdue also faced heat for having dump stock in the wake of the pandemic had to be on the sidelines after he came into contact with a person who had the coronavirus. It damaged him. He also faced heat from Raffensperger when Perdue and Loeffler called for his resignation. Raffensperger said that his family gotten death threats and he said he may never vote Republican again after Trump's threats.

This is a moment in history. Georgia will have two diverse lawmakers in Washington.
