Craig, Is the BBC biased? - 5 hours ago
Well, it says it all. The websites of the Sky News and ITV News made the upcoming, historic 11pm break from the EU their lead stories in the run-up to 11pm. The BBC News website kept the story in fourth place. Typically sour from the BBC. 11pm strikes. History is made. The BBC moves the story to first place.

IS IT A CIVIL WAR YET?
Steve M., No More Mister Nice Blog - 5 hours ago
I wish I could agree with Ruth Marcus about the upcoming congressional challenge to the Electoral College results: ... while irresponsible, [it] is not necessarily a terrible development. It forces a vote that will have the salutary effect of requiring [Republican members of Congress] to decide — and to put on the record — whether their loyalty is to President Trump or to the Constitution.
