A clip from last night’s (1/6) CNN “debate” … Nikki (not her real name) Haley mouthing the Left’s/NeverTrump’s BIG LIE about the 2020 election. No, Miss Nikki. Biden didn’t win as the term is commonly understood; he cheated.

Being Called A MAGA Republican Upset Me, Now It Angers Me
I can turn the other cheek without thoughts of retaliation. I have tough skin and can handle your insults without comebacks. But I have lost patience when a man has focused the entirety of his energy on destroying our great country and continues to denigrate Donald Trump and the MAGA movement as being on the same level as the KKK and Nazi Germany.
“And That, Ladies and Gentleman, Is How Our Tax System Works”
This is not new, but it is still amusing and enlightening. Sarah Huckabee Sanders, in 2017, took a few minutes before a daily White House press briefing to tell a story that explains how our tax system works. For her example, she used reporters and beer.
Now That Chris Christie Has Dropped Out …
Chris Crispy-Creme-Christie has left the building. He’s done. Finished. Fini. No longer will he run for President. He’s still running (to be Nikki Haley’s AG if you are familiar with my presidential campaign conspiracy theory), and he still has campaign money to burn. And he’ll do almost anything to stop Mr. Trump.
Distracted and Misled
Are today’s interests really that important and beneficial, or is it just a ruse when being so attracted to incidentals that are inappropriate and exaggerated nonsense? Whatever the urgency, we are all guilty to a degree of magnifying what is simply a nuisance or just trivia.
Meme Overflow
As promised in Monday Memes, I have an overflow. My meme cup runneth over. And yes there will be a Friday edition too.
Houseplants? Is The Family Dog Next
Okay, these Greenies have to get themselves a hobby. I have no idea what their endgame is, but all of us moving back into caves might be a good guess. But don’t even think about starting a campfire to cook or keep warm. No fire is allowed in the Green Utopia.
Outlawing Diversity Offices on State College Campuses Won’t End DEI
This is another example of that fifty-state laboratory business. The notion is that each state can try a thing, and when they work or fail, other states can learn from that. With the Blue States, failure is the goal, and it is what they emulate. Red states, on the other hand.
Night Cap: Biden Spending Off the Rails?
The White House announced earlier this month multi-billion dollar spending on a high-speed rail system for the nation. But President Joe Biden has already participated in a project with this exact promise – without delivering results. Indeed, some of the Barack Obama-Biden rail projects have been abandoned; most have run over projected costs.
Night Cap: You Like Gun Control? Push for Speech Control.
There are a lot of reasons why Claudine Gay should never have been running Harvard, but her testimony before Congress isn’t one of them. I went back and watched as much of the hearing as I could stomach, and what I heard all three university presidents saying was: Anti-semitism is bad, but speech is different from action.
Is Senator Jeannie That Ignorant … Or Is It The Democrat-Youth Running Her X (Twitter)?
Senator Jeannie … or, perhaps, her “staff” … went on an X (Twitter) harangue about the January 6th “insurrection.” As part of the harangue, she misquoted Ben Franklin, substituting “democracy” for “republic” in the famous admonition, “a republic if you can keep it.” Of course, neither Jeannie nor her staff could even tell you what the difference between a democracy and a republic is, so they have no idea of their gaffe.
Habeus Convictus
One of our oldest legal concepts is habeas corpus. (‘You must have the body.’) The basic idea is that you can’t detain someone indefinitely without showing cause why he should be detained. It gives the accused a right to challenge the accusations against him in court.
Victims Of A News Cycle On Steroids
Like everything else in the 21st Century America, the news cycle has evolved. This evolution has been happening for decades as we watched the slow death of print newspapers to digital versions. Still, even on a cellphone or tablet, the American attention span is inadequate to read news stories.
US Boxing Makes ‘Wife Beating’ A Professional Sport
Having spent time with former police, I’ve heard my share of stories about ‘domestics.’ Fights between cohabitating partners if you prefer. I’m also familiar with recovering angry drunks who were abusive – my mom spent her life helping alcoholics in recovery. People hit each other, and some men hit women.
No … Republicans Do NOT Want The Border Closed And Secure
So I just (1/6 10:00 AM) read a post … in fact, it’s the most popular post … Night Cap: Chuck Schumer Explains The Democrat Game Plan Today, which presents the border as a Democrat versus Republican binary dispute. Essentially, if you want open borders, vote Democrat. If you want secure borders, vote Republican.
Night Cap: No Wonder Sidney Powell Is Under a Gag Order
On May 7, 2022, Ms. Sidney Powell (a former DoJ prosecutor) gave a deposition to the “House Select Committee to Investigate the January 6th Attack on the United States Capitol pursuant to House Resolution 503.” Mainstream media has not covered it; it does not suit the official narrative.
New Mexico’s AG Investigates META for Allowing Child Grooming and Trafficking … But Not Its Public Schools?
New Mexico’s Attorney General, Raúl Torrez, has filed a lawsuit. In the suit, “Torrez claims that Meta’s platforms, Facebook and Instagram, are a breeding ground for predators who target children for human trafficking, the distribution of sexual images, grooming, and solicitation.”
Divine Seeds of Liberty
Long ago, an unknown Chinese philosopher’s words described the biblical root of liberty that we call Americanism: “The well-being of a people is like a tree, agriculture is its roots, manufacturing, and commerce are its branches and its life; if the roots are injured, the leaves fall, and the branches break away, and the tree dies.”
High-Tax Nikki Haley Is Also Amnesty Nikki Haley Is Also A Democrat Poseur
Nikki Haley is a warmonger. She wanted, as Governor of South Carolina, to shift more of the tax burden to the working people; i.e. her proposal to cut the state income tax and raise the gas tax. And, among other things, she SUPPORTS AMNESTY. According to Miss Nikki, illegal aliens aren’t really illegal because they … Read more
Night Cap: Chuck Schumer Explained The Democrat Game Plan Today
With a sick smirk on his face, Chuck Schumer addressed the press today and spilled the Democrat plan for the Border. He mocked the 60 Representatives whom Speaker of the House Mike Johnson led to the Southern Border to get a firsthand account of the situation.
