□ [“Chris Rock SNL Opening Monologue Roasts Woke Liberals Freaking Out Over Trump Winning"]

No he didn't.  Well, maybe the left is whining about it, I wouldn't know, but I watched the clip.  It wasn't funny.  Three lines that were slightly amusing and that was it.  "Could have happened to a nicer person" about Trump's win, "nine New Yorkers that didn't vote for him" was kinda amusing and the Bill Clinton insult wasn't really funny, just a surprise.

It's a small clip on a laptop, but I was amazed at how young Rock looked though.  He sounded older but didn't look it.  That may have been part of the reason I didn't care for the monologue, on my computer he still resembles the guy I saw on SNL way back when, but didn't match with the old cranky guy voice.  I don't know if that was deliberate or if he was trying to act like he did back then or if the material just sucked, but that threw me off.

The rest of it came off as rambling from one place to another with little connection, and a number of references which old people like me didn't get.  Didn't the Mike Tyson event happen months ago, why bring it up now?  But I suppose leftists might be upset, if they have a clue who Chris Rock is.  That guy Will Smith punched at the Oscars or something?

It'll be interesting to see if the left reacts to this, but otherwise it was a disappointment.  Rock's time on SNL was when I watched the show every week, or at all, and he wasn't my favorite but always had a solid delivery and range for all the skits.  I've seen very little of his career otherwise.

He did something in New Jack City which I know I saw once but remember nothing and I was very pleasantly surprised by his addition to the Lethal Weapon franchise.  The scene with him and Joe Pesci is always one of the first things I think of from any of those movies.  Well there's more than one scene but if you know, you know.

□ [“Don Lemon Melts Down On Camera After Trump Is Named Person of the Year, ‘Is This a Joke?’"]

Yes it's a joke, the proper title is "Man of the Year."  But blame Time Magazine for that.  Every year we get told that the title makes no reference to quality or positivity, just a representation of what the year was about.

Put it this way, Don Lemon, take all the tv footage of you in 2024, remove every reference to Trump, and what have you got left?  *That's* how you get to be "man of the year."  This is how he got elected three two times, thanks to you and all your media work for the last eight years.

Back in 2004, when GWB won his second term, the left was bonkers for a couple weeks and then suddenly went silent for a while.  When they started up again, it looked like they had somehow managed to accept it and, to their credit, were able to move on.  I give them credit but it really came across at the time like they had gone silent until they were given orders and were less obnoxiously anti-Bush afterwards.  He was on his way out.

I would think they could do that with Trump but so far, it doesn't look like it.  With GWB, that may have been the 'depression' stage of grief.  I think they're doing that now but it's much more chaotic and unrestrained.  They're much quieter than expected but not in a way that suggests they're coming to terms with this.  There's probably a reason, they still have to put up with people like Lemon, and the assassins that they hope are out there.

□ [“Drone Forces Shut Down New York Airport – Governor Hochul Calls Out Biden Regime in Response"]

The really scary thing is that it just becomes normal.  They haven't done anything yet, we don't know anything about them and there's nothing we could do anyway, so we just go on.  That has its positive and negative sides.  The positive is that most of us can carry on with our daily lives even in situations like this.  The negative is that our masters know more than they're telling us and they aren't doing anything either.  Maybe there's nothing they could do anyway.

A CEO for a military-contracted drone manufacturer speculates that they're not here to harm, they're US drones looking for something.  His guess is radioactive or nuclear, citing the designs being used, the range and so on.  You can decide for yourself how educated that guess is, assuming he's telling the truth.  I really don't know, I'm just including this FYI.

The New York governor complains that cities and states don't have enough authority to do anything, so they have to rely on the federal government, which is run by that bastard Trump.  Wait, is he there yet?  Well then the federal government cannot be blamed for anything if Democrats are in charge.  Shut up, woman, and just do what you're told.  The fed has spoken.

What if this is all a prank by the government to get people scared?  What if the drones were all programmed to do this months ago on the premise that Kamala Harris would step in and save us?  Add that to the list of possibilities, along with it being a BRICS weapon or something from Epstein island or any other conspiracy theory.  Maybe they're filming the intro to the next Avengers movie!

Remember when Biden was running for office and promised a return to normalcy?  Maybe some day we'll be able to laugh about that.

The murder of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson was the first time I can remember where a shooting wasn't immediately followed by a demand for gun control.  Selective Activism.

□ [“Trump Astutely Reveals the Biggest Mistake Kamala Harris Made During Her Campaign"]

One of those things that so obvious, nobody mentions it.  Except Trump.  She didn't do interviews.  He says this in an interview with Time Magazine, who really doesn't like him, yet here he is anyway.  This is why she's not getting the "Man of the Year" cover.

I don't know if politicians in general have lost the knack for it but Democrats in particular seem to not be fans of doing interviews.  Some are better than others, especially when they're running for office.  In 2008, I forget who made the comment, but Hillary was guaranteed the nomination but Obama went all over talking to everyone he could find.  In my lifetime, the only other example as good at this as Trump was Bill Clinton, who just seemed born to go out and deal with everybody.  He'd have probably gone out to talk to Republican groups if they'd let him.

Trump talks to everyone too.  He's sitting with Time Magazine.  He spent three hours with Joe Rogen.  Throw him a question, he'll answer with whatever comes to mind, no matter who you are.  He loves this.  Meanwhile Harris ran away from campaigning to fly to NYC and make a two minute appearance on Saturday Night Live, does anybody remember that?  No, why would they?  Then a week or so before the election, she took a day or two off to prepare for one single interview.  I'd have to look that up to find any details.

It was obvious that she couldn't do interviews, so whoever was in charge kept her away from those as much as possible.  If you remember my posts from a couple months ago, I was convinced that the election theft had to be totally nailed down because there was no way to convince people she won on popularity.  She'd have to go out in public to get any of that.

□ [“DNC Megadonor Says Democrats Have ‘Stench of Loser’ Hanging Over Party"]

Lindy Li is rich, female and Chinese, so obviously she's totally trustworthy.  That said, it's good explanation of the problems the left is having now.  Their obsession with Trump keeps backfiring and making things worse for them.  It's fun to watch but there's a point where you have to wish they could get a grip.  But then they wouldn't be leftists.

The need to make government omnipresent is an effect of this, or maybe the cause.  Simply having other things in your life that are more important makes you mentally healthier.  Family and friends are the most obvious choices, there's also religion, even hobbies or sports.  This morning I did something I almost never do, an episode of a tv show from nearly 30 years ago came to mind, so I watched it.  A complete waste of time but it was my decision, no government needed.

But the left does not have that.  Is it a mental illness, cult behavior, demon-possession?   I don't know if it's fixable, but it can at least be minimized.  Leftism itself can only prosper in a society among rich and lazy people, so it was virtually non-existent for most of history.  I still have a theory that this was basically what the 20th century was there to demonstrate.  It's also why leftists can't do much outside big cities.

So what are Democrats supposed to do about it?  In the long term, they'll either grow up finally or die off.  In the short term, that's where we've got the problems.  This is where the death-worship probably comes in, we'll be seeing how many rich leftists are ready to carry that out, and who has that in their arsenal as a weapon to use against the rest of us.  The last month has been a nice change, but the problems aren't even close to over yet.
