Today, with Christmas near, we offer assorted quick hits – from the category of gifts that keep on giving.
ITEM: Fulton County Georgia has admitted that approximately 315,000 uncertified ballots from the early voting operation were illegally accepted for counting in the 2020 presidential election. Donald Trump allegedly lost Georgia by under 12,000 votes. And, those of you with good memories might recall a story in December 2023 about 20,713 “ballots” that didn’t exist on voting machines, also in Georgia. But that 2020 election was fair and just. Right. And this is just one state. Similar shenanigans were going on in Michigan, Pennsylvania, etc., etc., etc.
ITEM: Democrats have been pushing for release of Epstein files and photos and, like the dog chasing the car, now that they’ve gotten what they were pursuing, it’s a big disappointment. Instead of these file dumps incriminating President Trump, as even that left-wing PR organ The New York Times has conceded (they provide no evidence of Trump participating in Epstein’s trafficking and abuse of minors), they raise other questions. What the photos do show is a lot of presence around Epstein by Bill Clinton and Bill Gates, among others in the Democrat orbit. But the leftists see nothing wrong with this.
ITEM : The College Football Playoffs for the big guys are underway and already ChokeLahoma has underperformed in typical fashion. This time the school also known as Oklahoma, blew a 17-0 lead – at home – in a loss to Alabama. For those of you keeping track at home, Oklahoma now is 0-5 in these playoff appearances since 2015, mostly embarrassing blowouts. This doesn’t even include the 2004 season, when Southern California eased past ChokeLahoma 55-19 in the Orange Bowl to win the Bowl Championship Series national title. Attention bettors: Going against Oklahoma in a national championship playoff is a lock.
ITEM: Note to the Notre Dame whiners, who lamented that the Fighting Irish deserved to be in the playoffs more than Miami or Alabama. As mentioned above, Alabama went on the road and beat ChokeLahoma in the opening round Friday night. And, Saturday afternoon, Miami won at Texas A&M. That’s Texas A&M, which beat Notre Dame, at Notre Dame this season. And that’s Miami, which beat Notre Dame at Miami earlier this year, and now has beaten the other team that beat Notre Dame this season. Put that in your leprechaun pipe and smoke it.
ITEM: Reports of coaches and athletes fixing games in the pursuit of ill-gotten gambling gains are coming at us in rapid-fire fashion, and with them, increasing speculation that the rash of ridiculously bad plays, coaching calls or officiating decisions are something other than just human error. I find myself watching games in which I have no rooting interesting and wondering aloud about such things I see that just don’t pass the smell test. An NBC poll indicates I am not alone. A full 70 percent believe the rise of gambling damages the integrity of the games and could lead to games being fixed.
ITEM: Rogue leftist Wisconsin judge Hannah Dugan has been convicted of a felony for obstructing federal agents trying to arrest an illegal immigrant outside her courtroom. But, before you celebrate, understand she and her attorney will appeal the conviction and if past is prologue, she will skate just like other leftist scofflaws. Dugan doing significant prison time is as unlikely as ChokeLahoma winning a playoff football game.
