Emotional ...
Emotional abuse is often defined in several different ways. One partner harming or breaking down another person’s self-esteem in order to achieve a certain goal (usually to gain power over the other partner or to cause psychological harm).
This can be done in many ways, such as through teasing, criticism, insults, terror, isolation, control and humiliation, and it often goes undetected until its effects have become severe.
In an emotionally abusive relationship, a person uses words, silence, gestures or behaviors which negatively affect the psychological and/or emotional well-being of another person. Like in physically abusive relationships, the goal of the abuser is to control and to have power over their partner.
Emotional abuse can start at any time in a relationship. Many abusers start relationships in a healthy manner, creating a strong bond; but once the relationship is established, they begin to mistreat their partner. The normal behavior at the beginning of a relationship creates a strong bond, and in many cases, the other partner is bewildered by this change. Oftentimes, they will stay in a relationship or choose to wait for the person they thought they knew to ‘come back.’
A person in an emotionally abusive relationship may begin to change their own behavior for fear of angering their partner. They may feel guilty, hopeless, helpless, manipulated and controlled. This situation, over time, can result in negative effects on physical and mental health.

Hillary Clinton said in a new interview that Joe Biden should not concede the 2020 presidential election “under any circumstances.
“Joe Biden should not concede under any circumstances, because I think this is going to drag out, and eventually I do believe he will win if we don't give an inch, and if we are as focused and relentless as the other side is,” Clinton said in an interview with her former communications director Jennifer Palmieri for Showtime's “The Circus,” which released a clip Tuesday.

Chittis...
Vice President-elect Kamala Harris' ancestral village in southern India rejoiced on Sunday after she and President-elect Biden were projected to win the presidency.
Firecrackers erupted and prayers were held in Thulasendrapuram, the village where Harris' maternal grandfather was born and raised, after she made history by becoming the first woman, the first Indian American and the first Black woman to win the second-highest U.S. office.
Harris spoke about her Indian heritage during the campaign. In her acceptance address, Harris mentioned the support she had received from her "chittis," a Tamil word for aunts.

Manipulation...
Manipulation is one of the most reliable behaviors of a narcissist. Whether someone is a full-blown diagnosed narcissist or just displays some of the traits. Manipulation is a key tactic of achieving an end goal. In some cases, manipulation is easy to identify and can be avoided or ignored; take. However, manipulation tends to be much more covert when coming from a personally loved and trusted individual.
The Psychologists describe manipulation as when the abuser is using personal, private, and sensitive information to destabilize the victim. The purpose behind this is ideation, or that the victim is being led to believe something false for the manipulator to gain—or re-gain—control.
Both direct and indirect manipulations are used to keep an individual close and attached. The exaggerated and dramatic tales are meant to maintain attention that may be slipping. It is important to understand that these tactics are not due to the manipulator loving you and wanting you to stay; rather, it is because your love, attention, and attachment are beginning to fray.
