Monday Morning Moans and Groans
The special elections to fill two congressional seats in Florida are over and the dumb bastards at NPR are demonstrating why Trump wants to defund them. NPR claims that because the Republican candidates only won by 15 percentage points that it shows that people are unhappy with Trump. They failed to mention that in the Sixth District the Democrat raised ten million dollars compared to the Republican candidate only raising one million dollars. The Democrats did better in both districts because they weren't running against Matt Gaetz and Mike Waltz. Democrats had their asses kicked by such a large margin in both districts in November that NPR thinks that 15 points is a close race. No one at NPR suggested that the real reason might be that they weren't on the ballot with Donald Trump at the top of the ticket.
The Duke Blue Devils lost a basketball game on Saturday night. Despite this, the sun still rose on Sunday morning, even in Durham.
After the Blue Devil disaster, someone asked if "my bracket" was broken. It took a few seconds for me to grasp the concept as I am not a basketball follower. I explained that I don't give a rat's ass about a basketball tournament and that the only "bracket" that I am concerned with is my "tax bracket". Yeah, I am really understanding about popular culture
If you think that I drone on endlessly, you should have listened to Cory Booker's record-breaking performance on the Senate floor several days ago. I watched about twenty seconds of Booker's speech and switched to a show of a higher intellectual level. Yes, I turned the channel to "Mr. Ed". It was a horse speaking instead of a jackass, but at least Ed was coherent and entertaining.
Reprehensible Al Green of Texas claims that he will file impeachment charges against Trump. I guess that getting thrown out of the House chamber during the State of the Union speech wasn't a clear enough message for Crazy Al.
Some liberal moron claims that Federal District Judges have the right to issue nationwide orders restricting what Trump can do. Please show me the actual part of the Constitution that covers that. Hell, I will settle for any written federal law passed by the Congress.
Trump should push for a rush program like we had for a COVID vaccine to develop a vaccine for Trump Derangement Syndrome. If the TDS vaccine kills as many people as the COVID vaccine did, we will never hear the end of it.
The news reports that a second child has died of measles in Texas. I guess that is a hazard of living in a state overrun by unvaccinated illegal immigrants. But it would be racist of us to make them get shots to stay in the country. At least, that is what the left nuts claim.
I am working on a book called, "What do they say now?" Yes, it's about what liberal reporters said about Biden before the fall and what they are saying now. I have been to revivals where not as many people experienced such a falling of scales from their eyes. Maybe Trump is an evangelist? There's a theory never shared anywhere before.
This is my weekly call for Chief Justice John Roberts to grow a pair and rein in his District Court Judges. As he was a Bush appointee, that's not going to actually happen.
