I wonder if other networks are just waiting on Fox to call it. Seems reasonable to be concerned about a violent response to first call. AZ being called makes it hard to not call it real soon. Election is over anyways, but it’s over even without PA or GA with AZ called.

Fox definitely seems to be waiting for another to do it.

Perhaps waiting on PA to be > 0.5% to kill auto recount possibility, but with AZ called that doesn’t even matter.

I understand not calling Georgia, but not calling Pennsylvania and especially Nevada seems silly. I understand why Fox and AP aren’t doing it but they just need to admit they ****ed up by calling Arizona too early.

They don't even need to admit that.

Pennsylvania locks it up even without Arizona or Nevada.

Ya. This. Like I said until they are actually saying these things in court I wouldn’t believe they have a single bit of actual admissible evidence to back any of it up. They are just trying to generate some money on the way out.

It’s the Andy ngo “brain hemorrhage” just on a larger scale..

Yup, VMF's conduct in here has been reckless and dangerous. I urge EB to not allow him to continue posting the vile and false claims he has without evidence.

I bet all 4 of those states would be happy if any one of the other states were the one to take Biden to 270.

And why is NC not being called when Trump has over a 1% lead and 1% of the vote is left??

NC was due to them not knowing how many more ballots were coming due to mail/absentee laws. They don’t know if only 1% left. Should be called tomorrow.

Well, it’s over. Not the election. The capitalist democracy. However biased it was towards the interests of the rich and however hostile it was to the poor and minorities, the capitalist democracy at least offered the possibility of incremental and piecemeal reform. Now it is a corpse. The iconography and rhetoric remain the same. But it is an elaborate and empty reality show funded by the ruling oligarchs — $1.51 billion for the Biden campaign and $1.57 billion for the Trump campaign — to make us think there are choices. There are not. The empty jousting between a bloviating Trump and a verbally impaired Joe Biden is designed to mask the truth. The oligarchs always win. The people always lose. It does not matter who sits in the White House. America is a failed state.

“The American Dream has run out of gas,” wrote the novelist J.G. Ballard. “The car has stopped. It no longer supplies the world with its images, its dreams, its fantasies. No more. It’s over. It supplies the world with its nightmares now.”

If there is one group that deserves our deepest contempt it is the liberal elites, those who posture as the moral arbiters of society while abandoning every value they purportedly hold the moment they become inconvenient. The liberal class, once again, served as pathetic cheerleaders and censors for a candidate and a political party that in Europe would be considered on the far-right. Even while liberals were being ridiculed and dismissed by Biden and by the Democratic Party hierarchy, which bizarrely invested its political energy in appealing to Republican neocons, liberals were busy marginalizing journalists, including Glenn Greenwald and Matt Taibbi, who called out Biden and the Democrats. The liberals, whether at The Intercept or The New York Times, ignored or discredited information that could hurt the Democratic Party, including the revelations on Hunter Biden’s laptop. It was a stunning display of craven careerism and self-loathing.

I feel like Fox may have just had a miscommunication or data glitch and accidently called Arizona. Seems not that unlikely.

They called it over 24 hours ago. As you can imagine, it has been quite a concern by Trump that it was called, especially considering that it was FOX.

They have taken heat from their own people, but are not budging on the call..
