  3. Twas the night before Christmas and all through the White House, not a creature was sniffing, not even Jill’s spouse.

    Zelenskyy’s stockings were hung by the chimney with care, In hopes that aid from the congress, soon would be there.

    The crackhead was nestled all snug in his bed, while visions of 8balls and hookers danc’d in his head.

    With Joe in a coma and his nurse by his side, Nancy had just settled down with a bottle of rye.

    When out on the lawn, there arose such a clatter, Nancy sprung from her chair to see what was the matter.

    Away to the window she staggered like she was smashed, ran into the window, and threw up on the sash.

    The moon on the breast of the new fallen snow, Gave the lustre of mid-day to objects below.

    When, what to her wondering eyes should appear, But a dude in a dress, and eight kegs of light beer.

    With little old Dylan, so lively and sleek, She knew in a moment it must be pride week.

    So up to the house-top the influencer flew, with a phone full of TikToks – and Instagrams too.

    And then in a twinkling, Nancy heard on the roof, the prancing and pawing of each cloven hoof.

    As she burped, sputtered, and then turned around, Down the chimney Mulvaney came out with a bound.

    It had a broad face, and a flat little chest, and you could tell in an instant it was clinically depressed.

    It spoke not a word, but went straight to the reason it came, and fill’d all the stockings with pronouns and cocaine.

    And laying it’s finger aside of it’s nose, and giving a nod, up the chimney it rose.

    It sprung to its broomstick, and to Joe it gave a shout, and out of his room the dementia patient wandered out.

    He fell down the stairs and landed right down beside him, and as they flew off I could almost hear Biden.

    I heard him exclaim, ere he drove out of sight-

    Happy you know the thing to all, and to all a good night.

  4. Merry Christmas, Pat and hubby! So much for the 1-2 feet of snow – pfffttt! Thanks to the wind, there is a lot of ground still showing – bet it ends up being maybe 3-4 inches when it’s all said and done. Over-exaggerating again!

  5. what a worm…
    Lindsey Graham
    @LindseyGrahamSC
    There were numerous legal and factual concerns about the 2020 presidential election.

    As the chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee, along with many others, I expressed concerns and investigated different allegations. The president has the right and duty, just like others involved in the process, to challenge the results.

    While I voted to certify the 2020 election, there were problems.

    It is very unnerving to see the justice system try to criminalize a president for questioning and challenging an election.

    “…when affirmative action is your basis for hiring, firing becomes impossible.”

    Claudine Gay presents the same problem for Harvard as Kamala Harris presents for the Democrats: when affirmative action is your basis for hiring, firing becomes impossible. Most Harvard alums know it, they’re just afraid to say it. But to fix a problem, you have to name it first.

  7. “DeSantis Campaign Spent More on Private Jets Than TV Ads.”

    ENTIRE ARTICLE @ NationalPulse: “Ron DeSantis’s beleaguered presidential campaign will have spent “significantly more” on private jets for the Florida Governor than it has on airing television ads, according to federal records and revealed by the New York Times on Sunday. The brutal dissection of the DeSantis campaign also reveals:

    — DeSantis’s pollster Ryan Tyson described the final few months of “mak[ing] the patient comfortable,” in what the Times called “a phrase evoking hospice care”;

    — “The DeSantis team had penciled in that Ken Griffin, the billionaire investor, would give his super PAC at least $25 million and likely $50 million, according to three people familiar with the matter. Mr. Griffin neither gave nor endorsed…”;

    — Backer Steve Deace questioning if there is “enough runway to manifest… on caucus night”;

    — DeSantis hired Jeff Roe in an attempt to dissuade Ted Cruz, Glenn Youngkin, and others from jumping into the primary;

    — A GOP strategist described Ron as “Ted Cruz without the personality”.

    The campaign is now said to have purged most of Roe’s influence, including most of his “Axiom Strategies” staff. Now run by close friends of DeSantis himself, the combination of the campaign, the Never Back Down PAC, and the new Fight Right PAC are still talking up their chances in Iowa, though still haven’t laid out a path forward from that moment, on January 15th 2024.”

  14. “Soros-Backed District Attorney Prosecutes Illinois Boy For Terrorizing Burglars”
    LIFE · Dec 24, 2023 · BabylonBee.com

    GROVELAND, IL – Pierce County’s District Attorney has opened prosecution against an eight-year-old boy who reportedly terrorized two burglars robbing his parents’ mansion.

    The young boy by the name of Kevin McAllister was apparently home alone when the perpetrators attempted to sneak into the estate. McAllister sprang into action with a series of ingenious attacks, including blowtorches, paint cans, and a tarantula. “The child engaged in cruel, vicious behavior that could have seriously injured the two gentlemen known as the ‘Wet Bandits’ ,” said District Attorney Ansel Hayden. “McAllister literally smashed Marv’s face with an iron, when Marv wished nothing more than to rob McAllister’s family while doing the child serious bodily harm.”

    Hayden said the youth’s antics involved putting ice on the stairs, heating up doorknobs, and other tactics that put the men in peril. “What has society come to when a child can torture vagabonds just hungry for bread?,” wondered Hayden aloud. “I will not allow this county to fall victim to vigilantism.”

    At press time, Hayden was preparing to file charges against the neighbor who stopped the kindly ‘Wet Bandits’ from biting off McAllister’s fingers.”

  28. sneaky way to get phone numbers…
    FTA
    “As Jill and I think about our New Year’s resolutions, we’d love to hear yours,” it read. “Text me yours at (302) 404-0880.”

    First of all, it is obviously a ploy to get people’s phone numbers so they can be put on text notification lists not just for the Democratic party but for their affiliated special interest groups. Pretty standard operating procedure for a lot of politicians, which hopefully most people reading the tweet understood.

    But beyond that, I can’t think of many more ways the Biden team can be more tone-deaf than this, at a time when people are continuing to struggle under the “leadership” of Joe Biden, with the economy, inflation, and cost of living issues ranking as their top concerns heading into 2024, and Biden’s approval ratings being reflective of that.

  31. “Tucker interviews Frank Underwood, the character played by Kevin Spacey in House Of Cards. Tucker never mentions who he is, and only says that we know him … we know his face. I do not believe it actually is Kevin Spacey, but even if it is, he is clearly playing the character of Frank Underwood from House Of Cards.

    In my opinion, this is complete confirmation that we are watching a show/movie, and is introducing the fact that you can see someone on TV who very much appears to be a well known person, but it is only an actor playing a role. All the masks will be coming off before we know it!”

    1. July ’23 photo of Spacey – it could actually be him….but I doubt it is “real.”

      ENTIRE ARTICLE @ TMZ: “Kevin Spacey is back for his annual Christmas-time Frank Underwood shtick, only this time he has big news … teasing a presidential run, and breaking it to Tucker Carlson. The actor showed up in TC’s latest X interview, which just dropped Sunday — and yes, he’s completely in character as his former “House of Cards” anti-hero for the 7-minute video. While he never outright says he’s running for POTUS, he certainly suggests he just might.

      Spacey (as Underwood) says he’s not above stepping into the race at this late hour, explaining that he believes the country needs someone like him during this dark time.

      Tucker asks him directly if he’s running, but KS stops short of outright committing to it. Per usual, it’s very bizarre … but it is consistent, which we suppose he gets some kudos for. Spacey’s been doing this whole Frank Underwood thing for a few years now — ever since he was effectively canceled during the #MeToo movement — and each year, it’s weird as hell.

      Remember, Spacey’s role was nixed from the final season of ‘HOC’ amid his scandal … and he’s been trying to mount a comeback ever since, with not very much mainstream success.

      He’s done a good job of beating criminal and civil cases brought against him — both here in the States and abroad — but he continues to fight lawsuits from accusers of his. In the meantime, he’s obviously still very committed to acting … albeit, in a smaller spotlight now.”

  34. “I have to say something that will strike some people as awkward and controversial, but it needs to be said at this point. Like it or not, here on the Right or in the ‘America First Movement, or MAGA, or whatever fun name you prefer for it, we’ve pretty much reached all our followers that we can over the past 3 years with this truth.

    Now we need people who DON’T FOLLOW US and would NEVER LISTEN TO US to hear it from the people they DO follow and listen to. That means people like Nate Silver. That’s why although I understand the anger as someone who was deplatformed himself, its IMPORTANT that NATE SILVER reach the people **I** have not and would NEVER have been able to reach with this reporting.

    This is a POSITIVE DEVELOPMENT. It is VERY NECESSARY. This has to happen. I actually want to see MORE of this, not less. The truth must move beyond ALL POLITICAL BOUNDARIES. NOBODY WILL FUCKING OWN IT.

    That’s when we know it has won the day. “Our side’s been saying that for 3 years. STFU, Nate Silver, you don’t get to say that now!” is **exactly** the wrong attitude to take. This is not now and has NEVER BEEN about who gets something as worthless as ‘credit’ for having said it first.”

  40. “Biden admin denies RFK Jr. Secret Service protection for the third time during presidential campaign. “It’s another example of weaponization of government against Biden’s political opponents.”
    Sara Higdon, Dec 25, 2023

    ENTIRE ARTICLE @ PostMillennial: “This week the Department of Homeland Security again denied Independent presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. Secret Service protection during his campaign. This was the third time the candidate, whose father and uncle were assassinated, was denied the protection offered to presidential candidates. “Denied Secret Service again!” Kennedy wrote, adding “It’s not just about me. It’s another example of weaponization of government against Biden’s political opponents. They know that 30¢ of every campaign dollar goes to keeping me safe.”

    “Homeland Security gave no explanation for rejecting our application,” Kennedy said in a follow-up post. “Law says all ‘major candidates’ get protection. I’m polling 22% (and 40% among young voters — beating both Biden and Trump). My opinion may be biased, but that seems pretty ‘major’ to me.”

    Department of Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas said in the denial letter “I have consulted with an advisory committee composed of the Speaker of the House, the House Minority Leader, the Senate Majority Leader, the Senate Minority Leader, and the Senate Sergeant at Arms,” per Deseret News. “Based on the facts and the recommendation of the advisory committee, I have determined that Secret Service protection for Robert F. Kennedy Jr. is not warranted at this time,” he said.

    Secret Service protection is a resource provided to all major presidential candidates and was a program enacted after since Kennedy’s father, Bobby Kennedy, was assassinated in 1968 campaigning for the presidency. After his first request was denied in July, Kennedy noted that his campaign request “included a 67-page report from the world’s leading protection firm, detailing unique and well-established security and safety risks aside from commonplace death threats.”

    The final decision on who to provide protection for is left up to Mayorkas with the help of the Speaker of the House, House Minority Whip, Senate Majority Leader, Senate Minority Leader, and “one additional member chosen by the committee.”

    Former US National Security Advisor to President Donald Trump General Mike Flynn expressed outrage over the latest denial. “This is totally unacceptable and has to stop,” he wrote on X. “The whole reason major candidates get this security protection is because of the assassination of @RobertKennedyJr‘s father, RFKSr,” Flynn added. “The corruption in our government has and will get others killed and it has to stop and stop NOW!!! There is simply no good excuse for denying this request…none!”

    In June, Kennedy told Joe Rogan that he believed the government intelligence agencies killed his uncle John F. Kennedy because he wanted to “take the CIA and shatter it into 1,000 pieces.” He noted that he would have to “be careful” of the danger they could pose to him should he win the election. “I don’t live in fear of it. You know, at all, but I’m not stupid about it, and I take precautions,” he said.”

  42. ENTIRE ARTICLE @ PostMillennial: “Conservative representatives from Pennsylvania, Georgia and Arizona are putting forth legislation to block President Joe Biden’s name from ballots in a move that holds the aging current president to the same lawfare that radical dems have weaponized against former President Trump.

    The representatives behind the legislation, Aaron Bernstine R-Pa., Charlice Byrd R-Ga., and Cory Mcgarr R-Az. are all from vital swing states which makes this move a particularly effective strategy to weaken Biden’s chances in the Democratic primary and presidential elections.

    The strategic move comes in response to Tuesday’s Colorado Supreme Court decision which ruled that former President Trump would be banned from appearing on the Colorado State presidential ballot citing the Insurrection Clause of The United States Constitution as their reasoning, despite the fact that Trump has not yet been found guilty of any crimes to constitute this ruling, nor has he been charged with them.

    Soon after the law-sault on former President Trump was announced by Colorado radical lawmakers on Tuesday, the conservative trio swiftly announced their intentions to remove Biden from Democratic ballots using the same Insurrection Clause. The conservative representatives posit that Biden is in violation of the Insurrection Clause predicated on his administration’s open border policies and his business dealings with China.

    The unprecedented move by the Colorado Supreme Court to prevent former President Trump from appearing on upcoming ballots is yet another signal that radical leftists are willing to go to any extreme – even perverting the Constitution on which our great Republic was founded – in order to force its will on American citizens.

    As voiced by political expert Tucker Carlson, the Colorado Supreme Court’s ruling deeming Trump ineligible to be on the state’s primary ballot “looks like the actual end of democracy.” The actions of representatives Aaron Bernstine (R-Pa.), Charlice Byrd (R-Ga.), and Cory Mcgarr (R-Az.) to remove President Biden’s name from upcoming ballots send a clear message to democrats who have grown accustomed to operating in a “Rules For Thee” lockstep and many patriots believe that this definitive action is a battlecry that will call other states to action.”

  44. Hey! Brandon’s in the neighborhood!!!

    “Dear Patriots – Merry Christmas!!! Right now it’s nearly 12pm CT on Christmas Day. I’m writing to you from my parents’ house where a blizzard is blustering outside. It is a bona fide White Christmas. But you don’t need to worry about me. I have a week’s worth of hazelnut coffee pods and a turkey just came out of the oven- so I’m fully prepared to be snowed in. Now just pray that the TV and internet don‘t go out (my parents live on a ranch so everything is satellite-based and prone to go down in bad weather).

    We got a wonderful Christmas gift this year when I prevailed in the civil case against me by 8 Capitol police officers who lied about me contributing to their “injuries” in order to try to get money out of me and to further smear my name. The case is now over and they didn’t get a single dime out of me.

    But the best part about this litigation being over is that I can now have an ENORMOUS amount of my focus back. Being sued is like a full time job. Unless it happens to you you can’t even imagine how much time it takes up in your life. There were weeks and weeks that I was spending HOURS a day, every day, obligated to produce materials for my case and have meetings with lawyers and hearings, etc.

    But equally hard: the fundraising. Instead of being able to just focus on raising funds for #WalkAway, I was split raising money for my criminal legal defense, my civil legal defense, and #WalkAway. I want to thank each and every one of you- whether you helped financially, or you prayed, or you helped shared our content and spread the word about everything we’re doing- I couldn‘t have survived all of this without you. Truly.

    I’m extremely proud of all my team and I have accomplished the past few years despite these overwhelming problems. In the last 2 years we’ve produced more than 20 live events including: a 3 day conference, college events, a comedy roast, a dozen town halls, 3 live debates, an evening and a brunch with Kari Lake, J6 panel events, marches and rallies, and more.

    I launched our own social platform called #WalkAway Social which has NEW #WalkAway stories being added every day!! We have the newly launched #WalkAway Substack- where contributors will be writing content for you regularly about what’s happening in our world. We continue to grow and grow! And all of this was with the boot of the federal government on our necks, AND George Soros’ law fare raining down on us in this civil case.

    Wait – is this a Christmas email?? Yes. Yes it is! But it’s hard to acknowledge the blessings in our lives without acknowledging all we’ve been through and survived. Now I look to the future.

    This coming year is going to be all about building #WalkAway beyond where we were. I want us to be bigger, better, and more active than we’ve ever been. I’m going to see to it that our funding surpasses anything we’ve ever done, that we revitalize our state groups and their leadership- rebuilding an active volunteer core all over the country. We’ll be back in colleges, minority communities, and omnipresent in the culture of the social issues that concern Americans who want to save this country.

    I’m wishing you all the Merriest Christmas, and the happiest Holiday season to all of you, no matter how or if you worship. This is a wonderful time to reflect and acknowledge gratitude for the things we have that truly matter. And all of you matter very, very much to me. Thank you all for all your love and support.”
