It's such a great thing listening to all the final remarks and ceremonies of the Biden team. It's the countdown of a really bad time in the life of the country with a bright light on the other end coming on January 20. One of my favorite things so far is how despondent Jill Biden appears, now that they will be out of power.
It's so humorous that Biden's Department of Defense even gave him and Jill "Distinguished Public Service" medals so they could feel like they did something. Nothing says Soviet Union-like but awarding yourself a medal.

Sometimes, the jokes write themselves.
On Thursday, Politico congressional reporter Nicholas Wu posted a letter to social media platform X dated to the same day from the Congressional Progressive Staff Association — which is 1,500 members strong.
In it, the association asks both House and Senate leaders to implement a shorter workday at 32 hours a week.
Seriously: (X} The entire letter is roughly two and a half pages and reads like something written by a child trying to convince his mother that, on the contrary, its actually very beneficial to have ice cream before dinner.

As deadly wildfires continue scorching their way through Los Angeles and the surrounding area for the second straight week, homeowners are worried about the prospect of defaulting on their mortgages in the wake of the unprecedented disaster were offered some reprieve from the nation’s major lenders.
On Monday, Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac unveiled mortgage assistance and relief options for customers reeling from the historic Southern California fires.
Both government-backed corporations are offering 12-month forbearance plans, meaning that struggling homeowners could either reduce or suspend their mortgage payments for up to a year without incurring late fees,

It all seems as if it’s almost timed to coincide with the return of Donald Trump’s return to power. The failure of progressive leadership has been exposed in a way that it has never been before as disastrous wildfires wipe out entire neighborhoods in deep-blue Los Angeles, a result not only of natural forces like unusually high winds and dry conditions but by the epic breakdown of any real leadership in the Golden State and the misplaced priorities of elected officials like LA Mayor Karen Bass and camera-addicted Gov. Gavin Newsom.

The Electronic Payments Coalition (EPC) will launch a nationwide six-figure ad targeting Sen. Dick Durbin (D-IL) as President-elect Donald Trump’s number one enemy.
EPC will attack Durbin due to his support of a measure that EPC says benefits big business and hurts the value American workers derive from rewards and many other benefits. The ad, set to air on Inauguration Day, slams Durbin as “Donald Trump’s number one enemy in Congress” for supporting a scheme that props up “a government takeover of your credit card.” “Consumers have thousands of choices and credit cards, all with equal, strong security, but Durbin’s plan

In his final remarks to the American people on Wednesday night, President Joe Biden launched a parting shot at the tech “oligarchy” that he says is taking over the country.
Such arrogant and hypocritical remarks should be met with scorn by all those who languished under the program of social media censorship for the previous four years — a program largely forced on tech companies by the Biden White House, as an example of the very kind of merging of government and corporate power Biden now claims to oppose.
“Today, an oligarchy is taking shape in America of extreme wealth, power and influence that literally threatens our entire democracy, our basic rights

John Ratcliffe’s 2020 nomination to become the next director of national intelligence was a slog. His nomination to become the next CIA director mainly was a cakewalk, now garnering Democratic support. Sen. Mark Kelly (D-AZ) has already announced that he will vote to support confirmation. The hearing was split into two parts. After a short recess in the afternoon on Wednesday, the session moved behind closed doors. (Video) Ratcliffe promised to investigate Havana syndrome, which has befallen scores of intelligence officials over the past few years.

The most political attorney general in American history has insisted he only ever wanted to pursue justice.
Merrick Garland, who worked tirelessly to harass, persecute and ultimately imprison Donald Trump and his supporters, said in a farewell speech in front of staffers.
“It is the obligation of each of us to follow our norms, not only when it is easy, but also when it is hard, especially when it is hard,” Garland declared.
“It is the obligation of each of us to adhere to our norms, even when and especially when the circumstances we face are not normal.”

On Wednesday night, President Joe Biden's farewell address aired, days before President-elect Donald Trump once more takes office. The outgoing president can say whatever he likes, but polls continue to show that he won't exactly be remembered very fondly. On CNN, they had a panel reacting in real time, which included commentary from Scott Jennings.
Jennings offered that "the way [Biden's] leaving office has been, frankly, pretty terrible," which CNN's own poll released earlier that day would back up. He also spoke to how Biden is going to be remembered as president,

Frederiksen explained that Danish companies have contributed to jobs and growth in the United States and that they both have a common interest in strengthened trade.
In the 45-minute conversation, Frederiksen and Trump also discussed the war in Ukraine,

Ex-attorney Rudy Giuliani’s trial against the Georgia election workers he’s been forced to turn over his assets to has been called off after the two sides reached a settlement that the parties say allows Giuliani to keep his personal belongings, after a trial over several of the former mayor’s assets was slated to begin Thursday but was postponed after Giuliani never showed up to court.
