HAPPY VETERANS DAY! If you served I want to say thank you for serving such an important role in the flourishing of our great nation. Here is a quick history of Veterans Day for you.
CONGRATS TO SOON TO BE CONGRESSMAN GABE EVANS! As he was declared the victor in the 8th Congressional District race over the weekend. He joins me today at 2:30 to chat about it. Republicans need four more wins to keep control of the House and why does this take so damn long to count?
CUBA'S ELECTRIC GRID IS COLLAPSING And this is really nothing new for the devastatingly poor socialist island paradise. I've got Mailyn Salabarria--lawyer and speaker with the Dissident Project--who was born in Cuba and fled to the USA in 2001. She recently wrote this column about how the power woes are nothing new in Cuba. The column is called Socialism Turned Off the Lights in Cuba for a reason and you should read it. She joins me at 1:30 to discuss it.
WILL TRUMP FOLLOW THROUGH ON HIS PLAN TO DISMANTLE THE DEEP STATE? I missed this gem when it came out in March of 2023 but it's making the rounds again. It's Trump's plan to dismantle the Deep State and I love it all, except the name of the "truth and reconciliation board" which I hate. Watch it, we shall discuss. If you're wondering what he's talking about the latest example can be found here, where FEMA workers were told to skip houses of Trump supporters when doing outreach after a hurricane.
REPUBLICANS MAY PICK UP THREE SEATS IN THE STATE HOUSE AS one has been declared for the GOP challenger already with two more very, very close with Republicans leading. This cuts the supermajority in the House, which is a very, very good thing.
ASPEN AND SNOWMASS DON'T WANT TRUMP VOTERS And of course they don't but I'm surprised the CEO of the company needed to send out an email decrying the people who voted for Trump. Read a column about it here but he should have checked with Penzeys before stepping into the this arena.
A NEW TREATMENT FOR PTSD FROM ISRAEL And it has to do with hyberbaric chamber and pure oxygen therapy that allegedly kicks in your body's healing response and it can provide serious relief for people suffering with PTSD. Watch this below.
WE'RE OFF TO A GOOD START FOR OUR SNOW TOTALS As we got HALF a winter's worth of snow in four days. November is already one of the snowiest on record! Read the stats here.
PEOPLE NEED TO STOP CRYING ON THE INTERNET ALREADY This is a trend that I absolutely CAN'T stand. It so incredibly narcissistic and attention seeking behavior that makes me eye roll so hard. Get a therapist for God's sake. This column gathered up a whole bunch of these people and I found myself feeling disgust rather than sympathy and that's not nice.
BILL MAHER ISN'T BUYING THE DEMOCRATIC BLAME GAME And he says so very clearly here.
IDIOT PRO-HAMAS PROTESTERS ARE SUPPORTING TORTURE OF PALESTINIANS And now Israel has found videos of Hamas torturing Palestinians who were gay or having an affair. Read more here, but be sure to tell your kids who are protesting Israel for "war crimes" that they are supporting a group who has done far worse to the people in Gaza.
SCIENTIFIC AMERICAN NEEDS NEW LEADERSHIP And have since this awful woman named Laura Helmuth took over and made the nation's oldest magazine another shill for the Democrat party. I may get my wish after she went on an expletive laden screed on X.com where she called Trump supporters names and more. Of course she has now apologized but as a scientist she surely knows the internet if forever. If Scientific American wants their cred back as a serious scientific journal she needs to go. We'll see if they want that or they want to be a political tool.
HIGH ALPINE ICE SKATING IS A THING And this Colorado woman is not only doing it, but taking others to do it too.
TRUMP IS MAKING MOVES ALREADY And announcing appointments he will make. I LOVE his choice for UN Ambassador which is Rep. Elise Stefanik. Her blistering questioning of Ivy League professors about anti-Semitism tell me exactly what kind of UN Ambassador she will be and I'm good with that. Trump's former ICE Director Tom Homan will be his Border Czar and oversee the ramp up of border security that I expect to happen very quickly after January 20th. And RFK, Jr is on the short list for Health and Human Services, which has to have Big Pharm crapping their pants. Heh.
TRUMP WON COLORADO If the National Popular Vote Compact had been in effect. Jon Caldara writes about that idiotic compact here.

MATTEL HAS SOME WICKED ISSUES Mattel is the toy partner for what should be a blockbuster in Wicked, the movie based on the most excellent Broadway musical. The issue is that on the packaging they forgot to put "movie" in the url and instead just put Wicked.com, which happens to be a porn site. Whoopsie doodle. They've recalled the packaging in what is going to be a very, very expensive mistake.
BETTER COLLECT THOSE HOTEL SHAMPOOS WHILE YOU CAN New York is the fourth state to ban small bottles of shampoo and other amenities in order to curb unnecessary plastic waste. I don't hate this and most hotels have already gone to bottle mounted on the walls with shampoo and conditioner. I'm well past the "steal all the small bottles" stage of life at this point anyway.
WHEN SHOULD YOU TAKE SOCIAL SECURITY? Dave Ramsey says don't wait, take it at 62 as long as you invest that money. Taking social security before full retirement age could reduce your benefits by 30% so you've got to make up that difference somehow. Read the story here.
WHEN SOMEONE COMES FOR YOUR MATE We've all probably had a situation when someone flirted with our spouse and a new study showed that early in a relationship that can make you want them more, but in an established relationship it can actually make you want them LESS. Read this for more.
CANCER RESEARCH IS ON A TEAR RIGHT NOW And this column dips into some of the most important things that have happened as of late. It's a glorious time to be alive, isn't it?
WHY YOUR DOG EATS GRASS...OR POOP And yes it's gross, but very common. This story tries to explain it away, although somewhat disappointingly in my opinion.
FINALLY A WORD FOR A PARTICULAR EX I dated a guy once who always knew the right thing to say, always knew exactly what I wanted to hear, but used it all for evil in the end. It was like he had a window into my brain somehow and eventually he wielded that power with great cruelty. Now I know he was a "dark empath", a new personality type describing people who feel other people's emotions and then use that to manipulate and hurt. As I read this article he sprang to mind immediately. I hope you don't have one in your life.
AN INTERESTING STRATEGY IF YOU GET DUMPED A Utah man who had gotten broken up with the day before got a concussion and forgot, so he kept being very nice to the woman he thought he was dating and she took him back and now they are married. That's one way to do it.
