MSNBC is reporting that voters at many Atlanta Metro polling places are in and out in 5 minutes today because so many Georgians voted early! So if you haven't voted, get out and vote by 7PM today. I'm counting on you. #gapol #gasen

A white supremacist group, The Proud Boys, tore down Black Lives Matter signs off three DC churches over the weekend. Today it was dropped from TV news coverage. If it had been BLM marchers who vandalized white churches it would be covered on the news for the next two weeks.
