Democrats Learned Nothing From the Election
Posted By: ladydawgfan, 1/7/2025 7:29:50 PM
I was watching MSNBC the other day – I know, but it is fun to look into a parallel universe where progressive ideals appeal to the vast majority of Americans, it makes me appreciate reality all the more – and I had to check my phone to make sure I had the right year. You wouldn’t know it was 2024 if you’d just gone by the rhetoric belching its way over the airwaves. Donald Trump is a Russian stooge – a tool of Putin – who is only interested in…well, you know the rest of that song. In fact, you know the rest of all the songs,

A Jordanian national, who violated the terms of his admission to the United States, is accused of making a bomb threat to a South Carolina Highway Patrolman after having been pulled over for missing a license plate.
Ahmad Jamal Khamees Alhendi, a 28-year-old legal immigrant from Jordan who came to the U.S. in September 2018 but who violated the terms of his admission, has been arrested and charged in Greenville County, South Carolina, for breach of peace, falsely making a bomb threat, and operating an unregistered vehicle.
According to investigators, a South Carolina Highway Patrolman pulled over Alhendi on January 2
President Trump on Tuesday held a fiery press conference at his Florida residence Mar-a-Lago.
In his first presser after being certified the winner of the 2024 election, Trump announced he was changing the name of the Gulf of Mexico, issued an ultimatum to Hamas, and announced $20 billion to build data centers across the country.
Reporters asked Trump questions after his presser.
One reporter asked Trump about his military strategy regarding Iran.
“The US launching a preemptive strike on Iran. You said you don’t want to answer that,” a reporter asked Trump.
“I don’t talk about it. It’s military strategy,” Trump said.
Joe Biden will be remembered as one of the worst presidents in American history, according to the latest Gallup poll.
While Biden and the White House seek to rewrite his legacy as someone who improved the lives of Americans and people worldwide, the American public clearly feels differently.
A majority of Americans—54 percent—believe Joe Biden will be remembered as a “below average” (37 percent) or “poor” (17 percent) president.
In contrast, only 19 percent think he will be seen as “outstanding” (6 percent) or “above average” (13 percent).
Meanwhile, 26 percent say he will be regarded as “average.”
Like a lot of people, I was a smoker back in the day. Smokes weren't taxed then as horrendously as they are now; I remember paying under a buck a pack for unfiltered Camels. I haven't touched a cigarette in decades, but I still enjoy a good cigar now and then, and yes, you pay handsomely for them as well.
There are always ways around those onerous taxes, of course. Ask any smuggler. This is, however, something the outgoing Biden administration, in particular the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), doesn't seem to understand. On Tuesday, we learned that the FDA is moving ahead with a rule
How thrilled am I to have President-elect Donald J. Trump going back to the Oval Office? Extremely, and I bet every legitimate political reporter is. Sadly, as we have discovered over four years of Biden-Harris, legitimate political reporters are few and far between. If you are a legitimate political reporter/analyst/commentator, what you want from any politician, but especially your president, is to be given information and insight that you can analyze, comment, and report on without a super-sized serving of stage management, spin, and regurgitated lies.
Trump's Tuesday morning press conference from Mar-a-Lago gave us a bunch of information and much to analyze and comment upon.
Is Sunny Hostin the most empty-headed person on the planet? That's a legitimate question given some of the things she's said on "The View" over the years. Recently, she claimed that January 6th was comparable to the Holocaust and chattel slavery, and that's just a taste of how ridiculous she can be. (Snip) So yeah, Hostin has a history of shooting off at the mouth and saying things she shouldn't. This time, though, the topic is hitting a lot closer to home. According to The Daily Mail, Hostin's husband, Dr. Emmanuel Hostin, has been named as a defendant in a massive RICO case involving insurance fraud.

Disgraced Fulton County Georgia District Attorney Fani Willis, who was disqualified for multiple conflicts of interest from her case prosecuting President-elect Trump over election interference, was hit with another setback as a Georgia judge ruled that her office must pay conservative watchdog Judicial Watch more than $20,000 in fees related to their open records request.
She’s got two weeks to pony up. Judicial Watch and its founder Tom Fitton took to X/Twitter Tuesday to announce the news: [Tweet]
They added two more tweets. “'Fani Willis flouted the law, and the court is right to slam her
Could leftists be planning an insurrection during President-elect Donald Trump’s inauguration?
It’s certainly possible – even after all their caterwauling about the January 6, 2021 riot at the U.S. Capitol building.
A coalition of left-wing organizations has announced a “We Fight Back” National Day of Action set to take place on January 20 as Trump is inaugurated. The purported aim of the demonstrations is to “defeat Trump’s extreme right, billionaire agenda,” according to its website.
The coalition claims that the president-elect “ran a con game during the election” and that his “real agenda is to destroy worker’s rights, deport millions of immigrant families,

Winter weather is sweeping the nation. While most people aren't too excited about the cold temperatures and inches of snow accumulation, a couple of Washington, D.C.'s cutest residents are utterly delighted with it.
Bao Li and Qing Bao are fairly new to the National Zoo in D.C. — the three-year-old giant pandas arrived in the United States in October after flying aboard the "Panda Express," a 19-hour FedEx flight — and it appears that they've made themselves right at home.
Because of the weather, the National Zoo has been closed this week, and the pandas haven't yet made their public debut —

Our moral superiors have warned us about this again and again. The destroyer of the Justice Department, Merrick Garland, has assured us, as has Old Joe Biden, as has the destroyer of the FBI, Christopher Wray, as well as the leftist top dogs at the Department of Homeland Security. They have all agreed, and told us repeatedly, that “white supremacists” were the biggest terror threat America faces today. The only thing they lacked to complete their scenario were actual white supremacist terrorists. But now, Heap Big Squaw Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Cherokee Cheekbones) has found one: Pete Hegseth, Trump’s nominee for secretary of defense.
Corporate media condemnation found MSNBC’s Symone Sanders-Townsend ramping up the rhetoric on the “sickening” premiere hosted at Mar-a-Lago ahead of the election certification.
“What Donald Trump did last night is a disgrace to this country!” [Video]
On the eve of the four-year anniversary of the breach of the U.S. Capitol, it was more evident than ever that leftists not only refused to accept anything but their own narrative on the events of Jan. 6, 2021, but that they would not let it go even as Special Counsel Jack Smith’s case was dismissed.

Frigid air that normally stays trapped in the Arctic has escaped, plunging deep into the United States for an extended visit that is expected to provoke teeth-chattering but not be record-shattering.
It’s a cold air outbreak that some experts say is happening more frequently, and paradoxically, because of a warming world.(snip) “There’s a climate change signal in that,” Francis said.
The Arctic is warming four times faster than the rest of the world, which means the difference between temperatures up north and down south are shrinking, Francis said. Arctic sea ice is shrinking,

Among President Trump’s promises during the 2024 campaign was to “medically discharge” transgender men and women from the U.S. military. But would Americans support such a move? A plurality of voters say no, revealing a deep political split over the issue, the latest I&I/TIPP Poll shows.
While no specific proposal has yet actually been put forward, the national online I&I/TIPP Poll asked this question: “News reports suggest President-elect Trump is considering an executive order to discharge all transgender service members and ban future enlistments, potentially affecting 15,000 active personnel. Do you support or oppose this plan?”

Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) on Monday sent a 33-page rant to Defense Secretary Nominee Pete Hegseth defending the Biden administration’s woke policies in the military and expressing concern that he would reverse them if confirmed.
In a letter sent to Hegseth on Tuesday and made public, Warren — who lied on teaching applications about her race — expressed concerns about Hegseth’s views opposing Marxist-based diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) and wokeness in the military, and concern that he would actually implement President-elect Donald Trump’s policies at the Pentagon.
President-elect Donald Trump declared on Tuesday that he would rename the Gulf of Mexico the “Gulf of America.”
Trump revealed his vision for rebranding the gulf during a press conference at Mar-a-Lago. (X Video) “We’re going to be changing the name of the Gulf of Mexico to the Gulf of America,” Trump announced.
“The Gulf of America; what a beautiful name, and it’s appropriate,” Trump added. “And Mexico has to stop allowing millions of people to pour into our country.” Trump’s announcement comes as he has recently focused on nearby territories and the U.S.-constructed Panama Canal.
What some see as a shot across the bow aimed at President-elect Donald Trump, Pope Francis announced Monday that left-wing Cardinal Robert McElroy of the Diocese of San Diego would be the next archbishop of Washington.
McElroy, 70, will succeed the retiring archbishop, Cardinal Wilton Gregory, 77, who shepherded the more than 600,000 Catholics who live in the nation’s capital region.
Gregory has not been afraid to oppose abortion in the public square, but angered some Catholics with his restriction on the traditional Latin Mass.
Roughly 30,000 Los Angeles residents — including celebrities — have been ordered to evacuate their homes as a wildfire engulfs the ritzy Pacific Palisades and some have stepped up to help emergency responders clear roads blocked by abandoned vehicles Tuesday.
California Gov. Gavin Newsom declared a state of emergency after touching down in the area and meeting with first responders fighting the blaze that has torched more than 2,900 acres into Tuesday night, according to CalFire.
“By no stretch of the imagination are we out of the woods,” Newsom warned as winds up to 100 mph are expected to increase overnight across the tony enclave — including regions that are “abnormally dry,”
Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) is blaming the raging California wildfires on climate change.
“80,000 people told to evacuate. Blazes 0% contained. Eight months since the area has seen rain. The scale of damage and loss is unimaginable,” the senator began before blaming the devastation not on poor fire management but on climate change. “Climate change is real, not ‘a hoax,'” he said, demanding President-elect Donald Trump to “treat this like the existential crisis it is.” (X)
Sanders made no mention of the fact that Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass (D) — who was not in LA but on a trip to Ghana
You love to see it.
LA’s Democrat Mayor Karen Bass got absolutely skewered by a reporter over her failed policies that led to dry fire hydrants and the most destructive fire in history.
Karen Bass slashed Fire Department funding by $17.6 million a few months before the fires erupted on Tuesday.
This is the most destructive fire in Los Angeles history and the city is not prepared to contain the fire because of Democrats like Karen Bass.Los Angeles firefighters couldn’t even battle the inferno because the hydrants went dry.
The Washington Post lost more than $70 million dollars last year and rather than trying a course correction, they doubled down on woke. One of their cartoonists recently resigned because Jeff Bezos nixed her anti-Trump cartoon that also criticized her own paper.
Now the paper is laying off dozens of staffers. It turns out decisions have consequences.
Like many other liberal media outlets, the Washington Post has become a captive of their most far left readers. They can’t triangulate politically because they would lose the last group of readers that they have left.
As wildfires ravage Southern California, homeowners in Pacific Palisades find themselves grappling with an unbearable reality: their homes are burning, and their insurance policies—once their safety net—were canceled just months ago by State Farm.
In a move justified by the company as a strategy to avoid “financial failure,” State Farm canceled over 72,000 homeowners’ policies statewide, with Pacific Palisades—a now-charred affluent neighborhood—bearing a significant brunt.
James Woods, a renowned actor and Pacific Palisades resident, summed up the community’s frustration on social media.
“Actually, one of the major insurance companies canceled all the policies in our neighborhood about four months ago,” he wrote.
Los Angeles-area firefighters claim they are running out of water as they battle the growing wildfires in the area.
"The hydrants are down," one firefighter said over the radio, according to the Los Angeles Times.
"Water supply just dropped," reported another one.
Former LA mayoral hopeful and billionaire developer Rick Caruso backed the claims made by the first responders as his staff reported to him from the Palisades Village in the Westside neighborhood.
"There's no water in the fire hydrants," Caruso told the outlet. "The firefighters are there and there's nothing they can do — we've got neighborhoods burning, homes burning, and businesses burning. ... It should never happen."

Democrats for Being ‘Too Reflexively Anti-Republican’ 18 replies
New York Democratic Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez joined a growing number of Democrats who are seeking to work as much as possible with President-elect Donald Trump in his second term.
Ocasio-Cortez, who belongs to the progressive faction of her party in Congress, said in remarks to Punchbowl News on Wednesday that she will support policies from Trump that align with her beliefs.
“The reason why I think oftentimes Democrats occasionally lose elections is because we’re too reflexively anti-Republican, and that we don’t lean into an ambitious vision for working-class Americans strongly enough,” she told the outlet.
