The joy is gone: A liberal holiday hate-fest celebrates political violence
“May Trump supporters and Trump voters and Trump himself never know peace.” - Jonathan Turley 
Those words, from Disney’s new Snow White actress Rachel Zegler, came shortly after half of the country, roughly 77 million Americans, voted for Donald Trump.
Only a few weeks ago, Kamala Harris and her supporters were rallying the country to choose “love over hate.”

- Now, the “joy” is gone.
- Tis the season of the liberal hate-fest.
As Washington prepares for the inauguration, we are seeing a return to rage...
In my recent book, I discussed how addictive rage is. People do not like to admit it, but they like being angry. Sometimes, people can choose madness as a release from reality. It offers a righteous license to slip from the bounds of civility and decency. It allows people to harass Republicans in restaurants or to scream profanities outside of their homes...

A 'Missing' GOP Rep Has Been Found...and It's Not a Good Situation - Matt Vespa
Rep. Kay Granger (R-TX) was AWOL for months.
Rep. Kay Granger (R-TX) was AWOL for months.
She was “missing”—no one knew where she was, which was made more conspicuous apparently with the mountain of missed votes.
- Calls to her office went straight to voicemail.
When Congress was barreling toward a total shutdown this week, which has been averted, Dallas Express wanted to know how Congresswoman Granger would vote on the continuing resolution.
- They found her office locked, with no staff in sight.
Now, we know where she has been for weeks: an assisted living facility that specializes in those living with dementia:

DC lawmakers on the naughty list after proposing INSANE spending bill | Blaze Media
DC lawmakers on the naughty list after proposing INSANE spending bill | Blaze Media:
Speaker Mike Johnson attempted to cram a bill containing funds for censorship and COVID mandates through Congress before Christmas — but the plan was thwarted by multiple lawmakers and even Elon Musk, who successfully tanked the bill.
“Everyone on D.C. might be going on the naughty list because we’ve seen over 1,500 pages of the CR that the House put forth, and it’s filled with things like a congressional pay raise and an Obamacare exemption for elected officials,” Jill Savage of “Blaze News Tonight” comments.
“We’ve seen an incredible amount of blowback to this bill online, and it’s not just from lawmakers. Elon Musk is getting into this fight. So is the pressure now from the public square enough to make Mike Johnson go back to the drawing board for the CR?” Savage asks Blaze News senior politics editor Christopher Bedford.

They were giving themselves a 35% raise, for one. - Frank Charles
- They were continuing the pandemic/WHO biometric tracking regime, and they were funding the International Censorship Regime.
- There were billions of dollars going to various pet projects, a last lovely looting of the public purse before it all came to a crashing end.
“And Republicans were going to vote for it. Of course they were, they were getting another $60K a year.
“The deplorables rose up in a great wave and defeated it.
“The deplorables rose up in a great wave and defeated it.
Oh I know the blithering morons think it was Trump and Musk, but trust me on this, Trump and Musk are a symptom, not a cause.
The blowback, the underlying thinking had been developing for forty years among the garbage people. Trump is our weapon.
So is Musk.
They. Follow. Us.
They are using our ideas.

Pentagon should face probe for possible nefarious acts at Capitol Jan. 6, former top Army official says | Blaze Media
Pentagon should face probe for possible nefarious acts at Capitol Jan. 6, former top Army official says | Blaze Media:
In a wide-ranging interview with Blaze Media investigative reporter Steve Baker, one of the top civilians at the Pentagon under the first Trump administration said some of the DOD actions could have been seditious.
“We’ve got people at the top of the Army and the military who I believe were operating outside the Constitution and certainly outside the authorities that they were granted by the commander in chief,” said Casey Wardynski, former assistant secretary of the Army for Reserve and Manpower Affairs. “They were operating in a way that was very political. Could they have been involved?"

Jacqui Heinrich Explains Why KJP Did Not Get 1 Q About WSJ’s Report on WH Hiding Biden’s Decline.
Instapundit - Press aides who compiled packages of news clips for Biden were told by senior staff to exclude negative stories about the president.
EDITH WILSON’S CLOSEST ACCOMPLICES MAINTAIN THEIR OMERTÀ: Jacqui Heinrich Explains Why KJP Did Not Get 1 Q About WSJ’s Report on WH Hiding Biden’s Decline.
From the WSJ:
To adapt the White House around the needs of a diminished leader, they told visitors to keep meetings focused. Interactions with senior Democratic lawmakers and some cabinet members—including powerful secretaries such as Defense’s Lloyd Austin and Treasury’s Janet Yellen—were infrequent or grew less frequent. Some legislative leaders had a hard time getting the president’s ear at key moments, including ahead of the U.S.’s disastrous pullout from Afghanistan...
But guess what subject didn’t even arise at today’s White House briefing:
Of course Democratic Party operatives who cosplay as reporters aren’t going to ask KJP about the (p)resident’s decline, when their silence is a huge part of the story...

The billboards warned about the many incidences of rape and other crimes against immigrants as they try to make their way to the U.S.-Mexico border.

What Was So Different This Time About Trump’s Election? - Victor Davis Hanson
One, Trump is seen now as a welcome relief. - Victor Davis Hanson 
- ...So why is newly elected Trump a veritable cultural hero in 2024 in a fashion unimaginable eight years ago when the media had rendered him a near demon?
- A departing and unpopular President Joe Biden leaves with about a 36% approval rating.
- The prior Biden years are now seen as abnormal.
- The Left's cultural revolution championed fringe policies never quite seen before: destroying the border, welcoming in 12 million illegal aliens, nihilist critical race and legal theories, institutionalizing a third sex, and mandating woke/DEI quotas and indoctrination sessions.
- Yet Biden had inherited from Trump a secure border, an economy rebounding after the COVID quarantines, 1.23% inflation, no wars abroad, and cheap energy...
The New Scientific Priesthood Wants Complete Control of What We Are Told - Dr David McGrogan
The result is not just suppression of speech through a ‘censorship industrial complex’ but a suppression of knowledge 
We are all familiar by now with the various efforts that are underway to govern what we are allowed to say, and share, online.
But this is a much bigger problem than is commonly perceived – it goes far beyond the ‘mere’ suppression of misinformation or disinformation, as misguided and dangerous as that effort is...
Increasingly, those who govern us simply take the view that it would be better if we had the minimal necessary supply of curated information, carefully vetted by experts, in order that we should arrive at the decisions they deem to be appropriate...
As I have argued before, we are governed, more and more, by a form of politics that has greater in common with the medieval pastorate than 19th or 20th century liberal democracy – a sort of atheist theocracy rooted in a claim to have sole possession of the knowledge not of what is true or false so much as what is right and wrong...
