99-0. The Senate confirmed Marco Rubio as Sec of State with a 99-0 vote. in 2021 Blinken was 78-22.

Fuck this shit.
Maybe both parties are the same, like some say.

I had people defending CNN in a few threads the other day, here's how CNN reported Musk's Nazi salute.

I hope everyone is doing okay today. Take time to care for yourself.

Hunker down. Time to survive.

John F. Kennedy delivered his inaugural address without a hat or overcoat in 20F weather

John F. Kennedy's inauguration on January 20, 1961 was held in subfreezing temperatures and heavy snow.
The storm caused transportation issues and threatened to cancel the parade.

A major winter storm hit the Washington, D.C. area the night before the inauguration
The storm dropped 8 inches of snow and temperatures were 20°F (-7°C)
The snowstorm caused a traffic jam that was crippling for its time
The snowstorm also reduced visibility at Washington National Airport to less than half a mile
The inauguration
The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers cleared the streets with dump trucks, plows, and other equipment
The parade was in doubt until the snow was cleared

Robert Frost was unable to read his poem due to the bright sun, so he recited “The Gift Outright” from memory

Biden's Farewell Speech warnings: the oligarchy danger from the "tech industrial complex"

He's right.
They are a clear and present danger to the USA.

I don't know what to do but a friend of mine will not evacuate his house in the Palisades Fire area.

Several of us have been calling and texting him all day to get out and he's been on top of his roof with a hose.
Now this is a 68 year old guy who had major injuries two years ago after fall off a hiking trail.
He has an adorable little dog and I've appealed to him to go for her if not himself.
I'm so angry at him
and scared for him to.
Fuck!

I thought my anger at this election would fade. It's hotter than ever today.

Certification is just another log on the fire.
I have no fucks to give anymore for everyone who voted for this corrupt regime.

Still not watching CNN and that includes their NYE programs. Fuck those folks.

Fuck the news folks at ABC, CBS, and NBC too.

Democrats need to let the GOP fuck up Americans lives next year. We can't save them from their own ramifications.

Democrats need to let the GOP fuck up Americans lives next year.
We can't save them from their own ramifications.
The American People will not learn that way.
We cannot be Superman and swoop to the rescue every time, preventing the worst possible outcomes.
Give the people what they voted for: chaos, inflation, and hate.
Then they might start to vote FOR their interests, instead of against them.

This was a reply that started an interesting discussion.
FYI: This is not a call for Democrats to vote with the GOP and pass their bills.
We should vote against but we also need to stop negotiating with House and senate Republicans who NEVER keep their word on a deal.
Fuck 'em and let them sink Americans and realize we were straight with them all along.

Rural America has been the bedrock of MAGA support. This year, 64% of rural voters went for Trump, and just 32% for Harris. And the nonprofit news outlet Investigate Midwest finds that Trump won over 77% of the popular vote, on average, in the nation’s most farming-dependent counties. So you know the leopards are hungrily circling that crowd.
...
One of the election’s most bizarre developments was that many Muslim Americans abandoned the Democratic ticket for both Trump and Green Party candidate Jill Stein, largely due to the Biden administration’s support for Israel in its war against Hamas. In fact, Arab-majority Dearborn, Michigan, went from a 69% Biden majority in 2020 to giving Vice President Kamala Harris just 36% of its vote this November. Trump got 42%, and Stein got 18%. Boy, did they send a message for peace! .
...
No modern-era president did more for organized labor than Joe Biden. Among other things, he was the first president to walk a picket line, bailed out the pension for 600,000 Teamsters at a taxpayer’s cost of $36 billion, helped radicalize billionaire Elon Musk by excluding him from an electrical-vehicle summit at the apparent behest of the United Auto Workers union, increased funding for the National Labor Relations Board, and stocked that board with labor advocates.

In return, the Teamsters refused to endorse a presidential candidate, and the union’s president, Sean O’Brien, spoke at the Republican National Convention, and 45% of labor households voted for Trump, compared with 40% in 2020, according to exit polls.

Maybe we could start a separate forum for people to complain about MSNBC/CNN TV News hosts all day long?

Since some people insist on watching them (yes, they make bad choices) and complaining about them every damned day.
Let's clear some of this fluff out of GD.
Give them their own forum to whine about the latest interview or comment from the idiot talking heads.
It's a good idea whose time has come.
