William Barr: no evidence of voter fraud that would change election outcome

Image
  U.S. Attorney General William Barr is drawing keen attention as he said he has not found any significant fraud to change the election results in the November 3 presidential election. While President Donald Trump, who lost the presidential election, continued his dissatisfaction by claiming that the election was rigged, the justice minister made a direct rebuttal to it. In particular, Minister Barr is known as the loyal subject of President Trump, which is expected to deal a heavy blow to Trump, who wants to continue his election frame.

Biden, the economic team also nominated its first female finance minister. - Janet Yellen

US President-elect Joe Biden has named ex-Federal Reserve chair Janet Yellen as his nominee for treasury secretary. If confirmed by the Senate, she would be the first woman ever to hold the post. She was among several women chosen for top economic positions. The Biden transition team said others were set to break racial barriers if confirmed. Mr Biden has pledged to build a diverse administration. He earlier appointed an all-female senior press team. His transition team said his picks for senior economic roles would help "lift America out of the current economic downturn and build back better". Janet Louise Yellen (born August 13, 1946) is an American economist at the Brookings Institution and a professor emeritus at the University of California, Berkeley, Haas School of Business. She served as the Chair of the Federal Reserve from 2014 to 2018, and as Vice Chair from 2010 to 2014. She was the first woman to head the Federal Reserve. Yellen was a Federal Reserve Board Governo

Is it right for government officials to have absolute power that can determine life or death? Federal Government to Conduct First Lame-Duck Federal Executions in More Than a Century

Image
In a dramatic deviation from historical practices, the Trump Administration is poised to conduct the first federal executions during a lame-duck presidency in more than a century. The Department of Justice has scheduled three federal executions during the administration’s lame-duck period: Orlando Hall on November 19, Lisa Montgomery on December 8, and Brandon Bernard on December 10. The last time the U.S. government carried out an execution between a presidential election and the inauguration of the new president for a federal crime was nearly 132 years ago, on January 25, 1889, when the outgoing administration of Grover Cleveland (pictured) executed Richard Smith, a Choctaw Indian, for a murder on tribal land in Arkansas. The federal rush to execute conflicts sharply with national trends that show declining support for capital punishment.  The Trump administration's excessive execution at the end of its term seems to be conscious of President-elect Joe Biden.

Gettysburg Address and Trump

Image
Gettysburg Address is a speech that Abraham Lincoln gave in Gettysburg, Pennsylvania, USA on November 19, 1863, during the Civil War. The speech was made four months after the Battle of Gettysburg at the dedication of a national cemetery for the then-dead soldier, one of the most cited and one of the greatest in American history. Lincoln said, " and that government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth." After that, the United States became a symbol of democracy envied by all countries. And 157 years later, the  Republican Party   had a president who denied the U.S. presidential election.

History of U.S. Elections Discontent

  For more than 230 years since its founding, the U.S. presidential election has been a history of peaceful transfer of power. The president's oath of office, in which he raises his hand to the Bible as a symbol of solemn U.S. democracy, and the losers' acceptance speeches are cited. This tradition has become an irresistible unwritten rule in the wake of the Civil War, which killed 620,000 people in the United States. When Abraham Lincoln, who proposed abolition of slavery in the 1860 presidential election, won, Democratic candidate Steven Douglas declared his acceptance, saying, "Let's put down all partisan interests." But Douglas said in a campaign that he would "not accept the insult of President Lincoln's inauguration" to his southern supporters. The U.S. has become a bloodbath for four years due to the civil war caused by the uprising of the South Korean military, which was already instigated by the message of dissatisfaction. The number of peop
