Wednesday was a no good, terrible, very bad day for Mark Cuban, the Dallas Mavericks, and the China-hugging creeps at the NBA. – The self-styled social justice warrior, ChiCom-hugging owner of the NBA franchise in Dallas made news late Tuesday when he confirmed to a reporter that the team was no longer playing the Star Spangled Banner at its home games at his personal direction. That news burst into the headlines and across social media, as outraged fans and enemies of the team and owner alike expressed their anger about the decision. From a story at DailyWire: Cuban confirmed to...

The Little Menace To Society moves the goal posts one more time. – Anthony Fauci was in the news again on Tuesday, performing his duty as the chief propagandist for the COVID-based fascist/socialist takeover of the United States. In an appearance with Bret Baier on Fox News’ “Special Report,” Fauci moved the goal posts down the field again related to how long Americans must keep wearing their masks in public once again. The new goal? When the viral gift from China “is not a threat at all.”

If you’re going to shoot at the king, you better make sure you kill him. – The RINO wing of the Republican Party was gleeful just a month ago with the thought that the impeachment scam in which they were coordinating with the Democrats would do away with Donald Trump’s political career once and for all. Mitch McConnell was only too happy to voice his support for this most recent chapter in the DC Swamp’s never-ending coup against the former President, and 11 RINOs in the House volunteered to have their names forever stamped onto the sham as a seal...

BREAKING: The UniParty has reached a deal with itself! – The Democrats’ latest impeachment scam attacking Donald Trump is set to start today, as UniParty leaders Democan Chuck Schumer and Republicrat Mitch McConnell reached a deal on what the “rules” for the looming orgy of hyper-partisan slander will look like. What is shaping up here is exactly what everyone should have anticipated: Yet another act in the unending farce that is the DC Swamp Kabuki Theater. We already know the outcome – there will not be nearly enough votes to convict the former President of the fraudulent “incitement to insurrection”...

Aboooouuuut Face! – Just days after the Biden/Harris Defense Secretary, Lloyd Austin, ordered that all U.S. armed forces personnel be subjected to a one-day stand-down so that the Pentagon hacks can try to root out the “white supremacists” – i.e., conservatives – in the ranks, the Pentagon is now attempting to do an about face and declare that the effort is not intended to target people based on race. According to the new talking points, the stand-down is actually targeted at rooting out “extremism” of any kind in the ranks. From a story a the Washington Examiner: PlayUnmute Fullscreen VDO.AI...

Question: When is the very act of winning a Super Bowl “racist”? – Answer: When you’re Tom Brady and it’s Black History Month. At least, according to hundreds of BLM twitter nitwits, who took to the social media platform to air their protests of pasty-white Tom Brady securing his 7th Super Bowl victory.

Geez, you mean the Republican version of John McCain wasn’t bad enough? – The reliable leftists at Politico have a story out this morning in which they portray West Virginia Democrat Joe Manchin as the “Democrat version of John McCain.” Hooboy, spare us that fate, please. The basic thesis of the piece is that Manchin is a “conservative throwback” to a past generation of Democrats, and a guy who regularly “speaks his mind” and votes against his own party. Here’s an excerpt: The West Virginia senator has become the central character in Democrats’ control of Washington, a conservative throwback who...

Last week saw tons of absolutely Required Reading assignments being handed out here at DBDailyUpdate, and this week is starting off with a bang, too. Over at Substack.com, Glenn Greenwald – the only remaining liberal voice in American media worth following – has a terrific piece in which he exposes the corrupt news media “tattletale” titans. From pudgy little Brian Stelter and Oliver Darcy at CNN to NBC’s Ben Collins and the New York Times trio of Mike Isaac, Kevin Roose, and Sheera Frenkel, the media’s brigade of Nazi-style speech cops has gained out-sized influence over the speech-controlling mindset at...

If this surprises you, you haven’t been paying close enough attention. – In a bit of positive news, Americans continue to exercise their gun rights in record numbers. Barack Obama used to be the all-time record-holder for stimulating sales of guns and ammo in America, until the COVID-19 pandemic and the government’s brutish response to it, along with last summer’s endless BLM/Antifa rioting, came along, . But China Joe Biden is threatening to surpass all previous records as his barrage of onerous executive orders and radical leftism continue to sow a rising level of fear among the public. January, in...

Rush Limbaugh gives proper thanks to President Trump. – The great radio host Rush Limbaugh, who is battling stage 4 lung cancer, published this poignant statement of thanks to the greatest U.S. president in modern times yesterday: “My days on earth are numbered; But before I fade away, there is something important I need to say. It may not be important to anyone else; but it’s important to me. Win, lose or fraud President Trump, I just want to say thank you for the last four years Thank you for making it cool to be an American again. Thank you...

If Fox News was already dead to you, it is probably even deader to you this morning. – Lou Dobbs, the pugnacious anchor and loyal Trump guy on Fox Business, saw his show cancelled yesterday in the wake of being named as a defendant in a $2.7 billion lawsuit against the network by Smartmatic. Dobbs has been a fixture on Fox Business for a decade, and has remained a rare bright spot on the network as most of its other programming has veered to the left, causing a collapse in the “news” operation’s ratings in recent months.

No one should be too excited about this bit of DC Swamp Kabuki Theater. Your case is basically moot now? Ok, let’s get it on the docket for consideration! – Now that the DC Swamp’s sock puppet, China Joe Biden, has been installed safely in the Oval Office and surrounded by a National Guard security perimeter, the Washington Examiner reports that the Supreme Court has finally agreed to consider hearing some election challenge cases that would have been rip two months ago. Now? Not so much. Regardless, the Court has agreed to “consider” whether or not to hear the Pennsylvania...

The writers and editors at Time Magazine will not be labeled by their colleagues in the mainstream news media as “conspiracy theorists,” but that’s exactly what they became today with a long investigative piece detailing the giant conspiracy to take down President Donald Trump that many of us wrote about throughout the 2020 election campaign. The piece, titled “The Secret History of the Shadow Campaign That Saved the 2020 Election,” details a complex and immense conspiracy among operative from both the Democrat and Republican parties, the mainstream news media, the big tech monopolies and corporate CEOs and trade associations to...

The woman is lying. If you see her lips moving, she’s lying. That’s what she does. – In what should come as a surprise to literally no one on the face of the earth who has synapses firing in their cranial cavities, more factual problems have arisen about the fables AOC has been telling about her experience during the Capitol Riot of January 6. It turns out that she wasn’t even in the Capitol Building at the time of the riot, but that the timeline she has constructed around her fables simply is not possible.

Mad because you haven’t gotten your $2,000 COVID check yet? – No worries, the Biden Administration is going to send you a bunch of 25 cent COVID masks instead. Isn’t that great? Even better, the Biden administration is going to mandate that you keep wearing your handy 25 cent masks into perpetuity, even after you’ve had one of the array of probably-not-very-effective “vaccines”! Yes, friends, this is where we are headed, and if you had been reading DBDailyUpdate for the past 10 months, you will know that that is where we have always been headed with this thing. Your DC...

Your Global Church of Climate Change PSA for Today – Remember, kids, the edicts issued by your betters in the globalist elite class about minimizing your carbon footprint to help prevent “climate change” apply only to you, and not your betters in the globalist elite class. Our latest illustration of this reality comes from China Joe Biden’s new “Climate Czar”, John Kerry, who admitted yesterday that he much prefers to take his private, carbon-spewing jet to all of those global climate conferences where he receives his many awards for being so concerned about the global climate.

Better late than never. – It’s taken almost a full year, but Californians appear to finally be waking up to the reality of the ghoul they put into the governor’s office. No governor in America has abused his or her citizens under the umbrella of COVID response quite to the extent that Gavin Newsom has done to the people of California. This is a guy who has not just ordered his people to stay home cowering in their living rooms for months on end, shut down businesses and thrown people out of work, he has repeatedly made a public spectacle...

Tuesday was a really bad day for Jen Psaki. – The least qualified press secretary in history continued to flail about in her job yesterday, at one point making a despicably demeaning remark about the U.S. Space Force, for which she was later forced to issue a tweet of apology. Psaki also found herself in a bit of hot water on Tuesday when an LGBT website called “getoutspoken.com” found and published a snarky tweet she wrote last August that implies Sen. Lindsey Graham is a closeted homosexual.

Oh, my, what a shocker this is. – You won’t ever believe this, y’all: Lindsey Graham supports Liz Cheney! Why, who could have ever seen this one coming? Sen. Graham has always been a shameless sellout, but this dancing over what he believes is the political corpse of Donald Trump while it’s still warm really sets a new low for this disciple of John McCain. Graham’s always been the worst example of the follower culture in Washington, DC, a guy whose nature abhors the personal exercise of leadership and always feels the need to latch onto some father or mother...

Wait, she gets the questions in advance and she’s still this awful? – If this story surprises you, you must have slept through the presidential campaign. The very, very, very leftist Daily Beast reports that White House Communications Team staffers have been pre-interviewing compliant members of the fake White House press corps to get their questions in advance of press briefings. No doubt, they realize just how truly, incredibly terrible Press Secretary Jen Psaki is at her job, and needs all the help she can get.
