The media call the 2020 election for Joe Biden as Democrats celebrate across the nation.

Biden calls for unity as Democrats call for revenge.

And the Senate comes down to Georgia.

We have no idea who actually is going to be in charge of the Senate. In fact, there's still a legal process playing out to see who's going to be president of the United States. But you know what? You should be planning for the future because uncertainty breeds instability in the markets. And this means you should be diversified at least a little bit into precious metals. If you have not diversified a portion of your savings into gold or silver, you're missing out on the greatest hedge against uncertainty and the weakening value of the dollar. Diversify the way I do with Birch Gold Group. Birch gold is the company I trust to help you legally convert in eligible IRA or 401k into a precious metals IRA or you can just buy gold or silver to lock in your personal safe. Text Ben to 4747, 47, get a free information kit on diversifying into gold and then call Birch Gold. These guys are awesome. I've been working with them for years. That's the reason I've been endorsing them for the past four years.

They have an A-plus rating with the Better Business Bureau, countless five-star reviews. Text Ben to 47-47-47-47. When open to precious metals, high array, secure your savings today. Again, text Ben to 47-47-47 to get started with them. It's worthwhile diversifying. Remember, 2020 is not yet over, and this has been one hell of a year. And then there's another one after that.

And one after that, too.

Diversify it to precious metals by texting Ben to 47, 47, 47. All righty. So over the weekend, the media networks projected that Joe Biden would win. So CNN, of course, was celebratory about this. MSNBC was celebratory about this. Fox News. This is actually pretty early on the call of the election, suggesting that Joe Biden has won this thing. Now, technically speaking, media projections don't mean anything. Like literally, they mean nothing. It does not say in the Constitution of the United States, the one CNN and MSNBC, and Fox News all declare that somebody has been projected to win an election that that election is now over. That is not the way the legal process works. And the person challenging the outcome of the election has every legal right. And indeed, if they suspect serious fraud, a legal duty, to go ahead and investigate all of those allegations. And as I've been saying, all week, as maybe the most consistent member of the media, the election is not over until all the votes are counted and all of the legal processes have played themselves out. When I said this on Tuesday, I got ripped by some people. When I said on Friday, I got ripped by precisely the opposite people. But here is the reality. That is always the case. It is always the case that the election is not over until it's over. And right now, it is still not over because there are legal processes in place.

The Trump campaign is going to have to show voter fraud, enough voter fraud that it would call into consideration the outcome of the election. So it's not just enough to allege that there

is one voter fraud case in Philadelphia in order to invalidate the entire Pennsylvania election

where President Trump is trailing by something on the order of 35 to 40,000 votes. It is not enough for President Trump to claim that there is some sort of miasmatic, gigantic voter fraud that is happening across the country without providing proof of the extent of that fraud. He's going to have to prove it in court. And if he does, the outcome of the election changes. And if he doesn't, it doesn't. That is all that it's happening here. But the notion that the media got to call this thing and then everybody goes home and you are bad if you refuse to say that it's over, right? You've done something deeply wrong if you refuse to say that it's over. I'm not going to hear that crap from the same media who suggested for four long years that Hillary Clinton was the legit president of the United States for two long years that Stacey Abrams is the legit governor of Georgia. That is not the way any of this works.

I'm amazed to watch the members of our esteemed media suggest that if you are a senator, like Ted Cruz, and if you refuse to say that Joe Biden is the president's elect of the United States at this point, that is because you are bad. Chris Wallace suggested over the weekend that Ted Cruz,

for not saying President Elect Biden, was like a Japanese soldier holding out after World War II.

No, not exactly. There's an entire legal process. The inauguration doesn't happen until January 20th.

The final certification of the electors does not happen until December. So guess what? Actually,

nobody has a responsibility to call Biden

president-elect, because technically speaking, fact check here, guys, he's not president-elect yet.

Okay, that's not the way any of this works. Anyway, here is CNN projecting the Biden win,

and you can see they can barely veil their absolute glee that they believe that Joe Biden

has been elected president of the United States.
