Not getting out much these days, so I have a social question to ask of this group. When you're out at a club or a wedding or other social event, and the band or DJ starts playing one of the many popular versions of "Let's Go, Brandon", what are the appropriate dance steps?

I was thinking Macarena, but await suggestions. Asking for a friend.

Sunday Morning Shows Takeaway:

Tuesday's elections were a bloodbath for democrats... we mopped the floor with them... they LOST on everything. So what are liberal 'elite' idiots saying this morning?

They're telling Republicans what mistakes they're making... Giving US advice. As if WE lost.

Gads these people are such fools.

The methane taxes are in the reconciliation bill. So far they apply to oil and gas companies and are huge taxes they will have to pass along ($1500 / ton of methane).

In contrast the "bipartisan" porkulus passed Friday night has many multi-billion-dollar giveaways including many to the "bipartisan" senators who voted for it. Billions upon billions for every "low carbon" or "hydrogen" project you can imagine. 99% of them are boondoggles. I am not against research into better energy, but not "pilot" projects that spend billions and produce nothing.

So yeah, there will be methane taxes in the new Dem-only bill, now given new life by the traitorous Republicans who passed the porkulus.

I’m rather confident the methane legislation was or still is part of the larger BBB. Manchin wouldn’t allow something so ridiculous to remain. I’ll bet my house he had it pulled to get the 3.5T down to 1.5T.

I don’t see he or Sinema going any further than the infrastructure bill.

You probably know better than most of us, kabar:

Since much of this infrastructure money won’t be spent for years, what chance is there that a future congress could slow or kill it.

I’ll concede some infrastructure spending may be warranted, but that’s about 1/10th of the cost of this bill...the bulk being more liberal pipe dreams.

I stopped listening to sports talk radio.
Sports talk are leading the woke parade.
Sports talk is now about social change to communism.

I’d rather discuss the impossible shot/run/dunk/hit/move

So true.

The exception was Clay Travis on Fox radio, who called out woke sports peeps so much that he moved into Rush's slot.

If the money is put into no-year accounts, there will be a huge slush fund. Congress could try to limit expenditures thru new legislation, but I don't see that happening. Federal funds are allocated three ways:

Discretionary budget authority generally is designated as:

Annual authority, which expires at the end of the first year in which an appropriation is made available (unless explicitly stated otherwise, funds provided in appropriation acts are available for one year only);

Multiyear authority, which expires at the end of a designated period of more than one year; or

“No-year” authority, which does not expire but remains available until the funds are expended. Much of the Pentagon funding is done this way.

The Dems are trying to disguise the costs by instituting programs with sunset provisions, but they are banking on the programs becoming so popular and ingrained that it will be politically difficult to eliminate them. Obamacare is an example thanks to McCain.

Fox Sunday was largely a celebration of its own Chris Wallance, along with Liz Cheney and James Clyburn being given the "prestigious" [Leon] Panetta Institute for Public Policy Jefferson-Lincoln Awards.

No need to say more.

Chris Wallace did an interesting acceptance speech - and the best part was where ‘journalists’ in the audience applauded. Applauded the idea journalist should just present ‘the facts’ and not push an agenda.

That was surprising.

And shows one of two things: either journalists are realizing how biased they’ve been - and want to change ... or they’re so clueless they upset people think they’re presenting the ‘news’ with a slant. Time will tell.

It is obvious that Aaron Rogers made a thoughtful and personal decision. I’ve purposefully avoided pre-game coverage this week because I knew it would be bad. Now it’s game day, and I tuned in too soon. Even Terry Bradshaw tore into him like a bull toward red. This is not going away quietly. I’ve never seen such beastly crowd mentality.
