All ready for a glorious MAGAnificent New Year🇺🇸
LOVE the GIF....betcha 2026 will be a barnburner in uncovering DEMCOMMIES lying ways
IN POLITICAL NEWS
1) In probably the greatest financial scandal in American history---dwarfing the Tweed Ring, the Whiskey Ring, and Teapot Dome, and in amounts rivaling the 2008 financial meltdown---the Skinny Minny Somali "day care" scandal is absolutely gigantic. I wrote about this in my substack yesterday, explaining why almost every major Department in the U.S. government is going to have a stake in exposing and punishing this. It affects the Department of Ag (food centers), Department of Ed ("learning centers," where one of the signs read "Learing Center"), the Department of Homeland Security and DOJ, and, to the extent multi-state fraud was involved, the SEC. If products were shipped in for fraud it could also involve Transportation. In other words, almost every element of the federal government has an interest in crushing this. So far, DOJ has arrested 100, of which 85 were not Amish. Also, as I said, it is not contained to just Minny, as already there are ongoing large investigations into Covid relief funds in IL, health care fraud in OH, A citizen journalist just arrived there to start the open kimono. Even DemoKKKrat ME has shut off payments to a Somali day care chain due to fraud claims. Then we have Medicare fraud in Kollyfornia, and now, it appears, more Somali fraud in Washington state. Aleady in WA state, a legislator who owns a series of day cares has filed legislation to hide them from scrutiny. When I say this "daycare" fraud will expand everywhere, I'm serious. Now HUD is looking at Rutabaga's "rental assistance" paid to the dead and to, ahem, non citizens. Furthermore, ya'll wanted election reform? Now the Skinny Minny fraud saga is being investigated as a front for fraudulent ballots and stolen elections.The Prancing Gheyboy Tampon TImmy is up to his evil little neck in this, and was warned last year of the fraud, but he obstructed investigations. It's so bad even Newsweak can't ignore it. Oh, and now MAGA is looking at crowdfunding hundreds of Nick Shirleys.
2) Wait, say what? Trump over 50% again in a major poll? Meaning he is likely over 55% since they always poll him low.
3) A judge has ordered that transcripts and audio from a closed-door hearing about alleged Charlie Kirk shooter Tyler Robinson must be made public.
4) As Don Henley sang, it's all about "Forgiveness, forgiveness" as an OR city put a murderer who gunned down a teenage girl on its police review board.
5) It looks like Big Firetruck is coming under antitrust heat for price fixing fire fighting trucks.
6) Shipwreckedcrew details in exhaustive fashion how the DOJ works. Try 6,500 assistant attorneys, 3,200 trial attorneys. Tens of thousands of cases per day. All cases still in the pipeline from Trump 1 to Rutabaga still must be pursued. Because of opposition to Trump, turnover has been as high as 2/3 in some departments. Only 31 of 93 U.S. attorneys nominated by Trump have been confirmed so far. And yet Bondi's crew has won almost every single case the toadstools brought against Trump. Meanwhile, it's possible that DOJ was just looking for the right glue to hold everything together, as Bondi has tasked investigators to look into an election-meddling conspiracy.
7) The Traitor Tuppence mirage: why the "right" isn't leaving Trump.
8) DemoKKKrats in trouble financially. Rs have almost an $80m advantage in fundraising.
9) Oh and how about this one? The administration has changed the wording of federal contracts to say that if a company is engaged in DEI it is engaging in fraud. Fed contracts now will require that a contractor NOT be engaging in DEI discrimination or it will violate funding clauses. In other words, companies that work for Uncle Sam may not in any way be involved in DEI or they won't get their cheddar. As Jeff Childers says, once you sign that fed contract, every invoice becomes a certificate of compliance. Who does that affect? Gee, last week Google and Verizon just got requests for docs from the DOJ. Folks, this is titanic, and is the equivalent of the Civil Rights Act of 1965 in what will be its effects on institutions, including colleges.
10) Violent crime arrests double in Trump's first year. Meanwhile, the D.C. pipe bomber confessed and said it wasn't about Trump. "I just snapped." Yeah, we all make bombs when we just snap.
11) A federal court allowed President Trump's block on the use of Medicaid money for Planned Murderhood to stand.
12) President Trump vetoed a water bill for CO until the state ends its "Sanctuary" status and frees Tina Peters. This is how you play hardball.
13) Oh, the other side knows how to play hardball too: the mayor of Groomer City (SF) snuck through a reparations bill that would give each black resident $5 million. If they hand out a single dollar, watch the lawsuits fly faster than a hypersonic missile, and watch them thoroughly bankrupt Groomer City.
IN ILLEGAL CRIMINAL ALIEN NEWS
14) The number of illegal invaders coming into Kollyfornia plummeted in 2025. Uh oh. Combine this with deportations, voter roll purges, and voter registration shifts and it won't be long before the Golden State is no longer a DemoKKKrat dung heap.
15) DOJ has sued VA for subsidizing illegals' college education. Wait, didn't George W. Bush insist "No Juan left behind?" As Jeff Childers notes in his column yesterday, this was beautifully choreographed by DOJ, which got a precedent in the earlier TX victory in this arena.
16) An idiot judge's order to release all ICE detainees was put on hold by a fed judge.
IN TRANSOID NEWS
17) A federal judge in Kollyfornia struck down a state rule that prevented parents from knowing if their kids were being groomed for mutilation.
IN ECONOMIC NEWS
18) NVIDIA acquired a $5 billion stake in Intel, pointing to the chip-maker's ongoing recovery.
19) A watchdog group found that customer service at Social Security improved in Trump's first year.
20) Kollyfornia dropped its legal battle to recover billions of dollars the Trump administration withdrew from the "railroad to nowhere."
21) Pending home sales surged 3%.
22) GM back on top, beating Ford and Tesla in stock performance.
IN INTERNATIONAL NEWS
23) French film icon and a hottie whose poster was on every young man's wall, Brigitte Bardot, dead at 91.
24) The Italian gubment arrested nine people charged with financing the Hamas Murder Pirates.
25) Where are the world's Rare Earth Minerals?

26) The Iranian government is increasingly facing protests and resistance, with giant crowds marching. One thing about giant crowds: secret police can only abduct so many.
27) Talk about a birth dearth: over 4,000 South Korean schools will shut down as student numbers plummet.
28) Japan is restarting its largest nuke reactor.
IN ENTERTAINMENT NEWS
29) Stefan Diggs, New England Patriot's wide receiver, has been accused of assault and strangulation. I'm sure he'll play next week. After all, he didn't call anyone a . . . .
30) The Amazing Zohran, like all DemoKKKrats, wants to end all fun. He has called for removing the carriages from Central Park. As one who has had one of those rides, it was romantic and charming. I support keeping them.
31) Wanna know why songs today all sound the same? Cuz they are.

IN MEDICAL NEWS
32) There are major declines in deaths that the media isn't mentioning: heart attack-related deaths have fallen; drug overdose deaths have dropped; mass killings the lowest in nearly 20 years; teen suicides finally dropping; and overall mortality has recovered to the best since the China Virus.
AND FINALLY . . .
33) I know it's Megxit (Meghan Markle) but I went back and started re-watching "Suits" with a new eye. This was really a fantastic series. It was NOT about the law. It was about the lie. That is, the whole series begins with a lie (that Mike Ross is a Harvard law school grad) then degenerates into one lie after another, not only about that, but within cases. Really is a different show when you look at it that way.

was sorry to hear that our NFHale & his missus were ailing.
Now, I just got a call from our County’s Emergency Management Director about the current surge in Respiratory illness in our area.
He was urging people to stay home and only go to our ERs if experiencing chest pains or other complications.
Called my family members to see how they were doing; all are fine at the moment.
The only good part was learning that a cousin had announced his engagement and that champagne corks were already popping for that celebration.
Do encourage All my wonderful FRiends to take good care of themselves,
Again, sending get well wishes to NFHale & missus to get well soon.

Happy New Year to everyone!
I’m on the tail end of illness, I don’t remember being this sick in a long time! Ugh! DH had it before Christmas but wasn’t as bad for him, thankfully!
🥰🥳

Wow. What a year.
None of this would have been possible without you. Every view, comment, share, mug, calendar, and laugh kept this thing alive, and I don’t take that lightly.
Despite all our many political differences, you’ve proven this year that we all still have laughter in common. I can’t thank you enough for the hope that gives me.

That tweet aged BEAUTIFULLY 😍❤️
Just like GOAT POTUS
What a bummer to be sick for the holidays.
I hope you get over this illness and back to feeling better soon.
Re respiratory:
Did the democrats unleash another bioweapon on us… again?
Did the democrats unleash another bioweapon on us… again?
I think a LOT of people have compromised immune systems from the last Dem Released bioweapon.
Making this crud extra virulent.
That’s what our eyeglass tech said about his wife who had whatever this is going around.
He said he’s never seen her this sick. She couldn’t get out of bed for a week 😢
Hope you’re back to 100%, soon.
