Its the fact that simple minded creeps are in front of the cameras all claiming to be important.

BTW, it is amazing that the Brits have this
“Holiday” because if they were able to set off that gun powder under there, it would have been one hell of a fireworks show.

Wonder how many locked up and abused Brits now wish Guy Fawkes had succeeded...

They are correct in that those celebrating Biden’s “win” are indeed, morons.

Pointed out that the fireworks were part of the annual Bonfire Night celebrations.

Media still playing 3 card Monte with facts.

ABC is Disney
CNN is ATT
NBC, MSNBC are Comcast

They employ dishonest idiots to piss on America.

I saw the newsfeeds littered with these kinds of stories.

With such a narrow view of real world events, past and present,
this reaction by the MSM should have been expected.

Consider said expectations fulfilled. The MSM is full of morons.

If the American media wants to draw a parallel between Joe Biden and Guy Fawkes...

On Saturday night, CNN reporter Jeff Zeleny was enchanted as well: “We heard church bells in Paris, fireworks in London. This is indeed a moment the world is watching!”


That’s an inside joke. Zeleny infamously asked Obama what “enchanted” him most about living in the White Hut.

Probably not a mistake.

Probably intentional misrepresentation.

Were Lemon and Van Jones crying over the Brits celebrating their white messiah?

I guess the MSM didn’t remember that it was the 5th of November.

I always get a chuckle out of Guy Fawkes day. God only knows how a harebrained scheme to blow up the Parliament building by a bunch of two-bit 17th century revolutionaries that never came anywhere near fruition and resulted in the participants being executed resulted in a major national holiday named after the ringleader. That would like us having an Aaron Burr day to celebrate his equally hare brained scheme to overthrow the government and name himself Emperor.

What? I’d figure all forms of celebration internationally would be for Biden, and all of creation would rejoice.

It will soon be the case that here in Britain few people will recognise the reason for Nov.5 bonfire/fireworks either. The Guy Fawkes thing has been steadily eroding from the national consciousness for quite a long time now. Partly it’s Health and Safety fussiness about the fire risks, partly child safeguarding (the custom of small unaccompanied children standing at street corners asking for ‘Penny For the Guy?’ would now be viewed with horror). But mainly because the whole thing has been overwhelmed in public consciousness by Halloween a few days earlier.

Until about twenty years ago hardly anybody here had even heard of Halloween or ‘trick or treat’. But quite suddenly the customs were imported from the US as a merchandising opportunity, and now they’re everywhere.
