The Democrats' January 6 observances were like a bad Academy

Yesterday, Democrats in D.C. and the mainstream media, gave themselves over completely to a look back at January 2021 and the extraordinary horrors of a riot that lasted a few hours, involved rioters people weapons, had no looting, fires, community destruction, or police deaths, and saw only one death (at police hands). The whole event was like the Academy Awards. Not the long-distant Academy Awards of beautiful people celebrating movies America loved, of course. Instead, it was the modern Academy Awards, with hate-filled people ranting against Americans, making boring, stupid speeches, and getting interrupted by badly staged musical numbers.

When the Academy Awards began in 1927, it was a private dinner party for a small Hollywood crowd. Eventually, of course, because our entertainment infrastructure is now and always has been ultimately about self-promotion to sell its products, the brains in Hollywood figured out that Americans would like to watch stars dress up and get awards for the movies that Americans had enjoyed the previous year. The system functioned very well for a long time, with families gathering to watch glamor, hear the emcee’s jokes, and lively musical acts.

Slowly, though, as Hollywood went woke, the Awards became boring as the Academy celebrated preachy, anti-American movies that no Americans wanted to see. And then Trump became president and the Academy Awards developed into a Trump hate-fest. The clothes got uglier, the people weirder and angrier, and the whole thing was a parody of Hollywood’s once exuberant celebration of self.

One could say that the zeitgeist of the modern Academy Awards culminated in today’s January 6 observations. It was all there: The angry people, the ugly clothes, the hatred for ordinary Americans, the boring, bizarre speeches, and the weird musical entertainment.

Overreaching in the middle of lockdowns where they are at the lowest in polls, they run to an overreach play. If Biden had more popularity this would go somewhere, but he doesn’t and never did.

Let’s go Brandon.

And Plato, founder of the Academy, and Aristotle student at the Academy, wept.

Partner, this display that the DemonRats put on yesterday was way overreach!

It was a big joke on the DemonRats and Miss Pelousy is still going to lose big time the House.

We need to investigate the overreach by the DemonRats on the Fiscal Budget for 2022.

This so called POTUS Biden has already got the U.S. with the deficit spending.

Congress approved $1.2 Trillion dollars for the shovel ready jobs Infrastructure Bill and we have yet to see 1 single shovel ready job.

The budget office of Biden release a number of $2 Trillion that has been spent so far. Wait a cotton picking moment!!!

We have $1.2 Trillion from Congress and so where are $.8 Trillion dollars or $800 Billion dollars that have been spent by Biden???

What does the U.S. government have to show for the $800 Billion dollars that have been spent by Biden???

Remember the $800 Billion has not been allocated by the U.S. Congress. Where did the $800 billion disappear???

There is not a word in the dictionary to describe how mad we are at the DemonRats who are staying very quiet about the $800 billion that has disappeared off the face of the earth.

We need more accountability from the DemonRat party!!!

The MSM stays too quiet these days. A very good economics lesson on how inflation has crept up for ordinary Americans.

Desperate Dems celebrated Jan 6, deeming it a political windfall for the flailing party’s election chances. It was tinged w/ Hollywood-style touches:
<><>a VP who got her job by sleeping w/ the right people,
<><>an angry political elite,
<><>hatred for ordinary Americans,
<><>boring, bizarre speeches,
<><>a weird musical segment.

And the award goes to Nancy Pelosi for her role in Exploiting Political Opportunism.

ROFL

Finally a decent meme about Jan 6.

Have you made any memes comparing all aspects of the ACTUAL Endless Riots vs the disorderly conduct?

Who actually noticed yesterday’s Styrofoam high school skit? 24 hrs later it is materially forgotten.
