The former Mrs. Wiggum and I would usually watch silly sitcoms before drifting off to sleep. For some odd reason, she started watching "The Nanny" in reruns, so I teased her that Fran totally turned me on. That became a running joke.

Way back during the time of the Lethal Weapon movies. My wife wanted to watch anything with Mel Gibson in it. I used to tease her about having the hots for Mel. Keeping mind that this was before Mel had his issues, she’d claim that I was crazy. She claimed that she just liked him because he was a good family man. I started watching everything that Dana Delany in it so, naturally, the wife started accusing me of having the hots for Dana Delany. I just said, “nope, I saw her on the first episode of China Beach in a red swimsuit and knew right then that she was a good family woman so I just like her because of her good family-ness”.

The WHO Lost America, Long Before America Left

Today marks the formal end of the U.S.'s participation in the World Health Organization, following the withdrawal process initiated by President Donald Trump through his executive action in January 2025.

The decision angered the right people, many of whom called it reckless or dangerous, reactions that ignore the longer story that began well before the withdrawal paperwork.

How Confidence Evaporated
The WHO lost credibility during the COVID response due to mixed messaging, delayed acknowledgment of human-to-human transmission, and shifting guidance that created confusion in moments that required clarity.

Health and Human Services Director Robert F. Kennedy Jr. summed up the reason for America's withdrawal in a May 2025 recorded message to the WHO.

Quote
"Like many legacy institutions, the WHO has become mired in bureaucratic bloat, entrenched paradigms, conflicts of interest, and international power politics," Kennedy said.

This thread post gives a chronology, with links, of running-dog WHO's participation in China's weeks of denying that they had evidence of human-human transmission of the SARS-CoV-2 virus, https://www.gopbriefingroom.com/index.php?topic=412910.0 . It was "only" 3 weeks of denial, but that was 3 weeks of concealing the urgent need to learn how to treat Covid effectively.

This cessation is one of numerous reasons to keep Dems out of the WH (by elections). A Dem would re-fund WHO, with "back payments".

Minneapolis Church Invasion: Feds Arrest Third Suspect and It's a Good One

The U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) announced today that it has arrested a third suspect in in connection with the invasion of church services this past Sunday at Cities Church in St. Paul. It's William Kelly. You may remember him. He’s the anti-ICE agitator who has been challenging Attorney General Pam Bondi and the DOJ to arrest him after taking part in the storming of the Cities Church services.
...
Kelly joins Nekima Levy Armstrong  and Chauntyll Louisa Allen in handcuffs following their roles in leading a militant group into a Baptist church and disrupting services.
...
Attorney General Pam Bondi and FBI Director Kash Patel today announced that the three were arrested under 18 U.S. Code § 241, which is violated when "two or more persons conspire to injure, oppress, threaten, or intimidate any person in any State, Territory, Commonwealth, Possession, or District in the free exercise or enjoyment of any right or privilege secured to him by the Constitution or laws of the United States."

The DUmpster / VIDEO: Larry Fink vs Larry Fink at Davos
« Last post by pjcomix on January 22, 2026, 03:35:41 PM »

At Davos 2025, Blackrock CEO Larry rudely shunned and refused to speak to reporters from Rebel News of Canada. Perhaps realizing the error of his ways, Larry in his new role as Chair of the World Economic Forum has become a new man and declared that people must be willing to engage in dialogue with each other in a spirit of openness. Fink also refreshingly stated that perhaps people should not shy away from perhaps even having an argument with people holding other points of view. As a man of his word, watch how Larry Fink has completely changed his attitude and now openly engages in friendly dialogue with the same Rebel News reporters that he tried to shut out last year. Yes, Larry in the spirit of friendly transparency has truly turned over a new leaf. ...Or maybe not.

You talked to a employee at the store about Thom Hartmann? How come this crap NEVER happens to me at the store?

In my 55+ years, I've never had a single person mention Thom Hartmann's name in real life. Only at the DUmp and our responses.

The douche is a big-time left-tard with laughable assertions of fact that DUmmies lap up like little piggies. What a hero. :mental:

General Discussion / Re: Why Greenland matters
« Last post by SVPete on January 22, 2026, 03:18:52 PM »
The MSM would misrepresent Trump's BM schedule if the schedule existed. The MSM won't describe Trump's purpose in gaining increased access to Greenland, be cause Trump.

I'm not sure if Trump was trolling or just playing hard ball to get Euro "leaders" inclined to hate him to negotiate in earnest good faith. He used similar hard-balling to "persuade" countries with Anti-America tariffs to negotiate more fair agreements.

Jack Smith suggests Trump charges could be brought again

Keeping moonbats dreams alive, but only in the headline

Quote
Former special counsel Jack Smith refused Thursday to rule out the possibility that a future Justice Department could revive his criminal cases against President Trump once he leaves office in 2029.

Mr. Smith said he dismissed the charges when Mr. Trump was elected in 2024 in accordance with the department’s policy.

“Can they be rebrought or resurrected after Trump leaves office?” asked Rep. Hank Johnson, Georgia Democrat.

“They were dismissed without prejudice,” Mr. Smith said.

Mr. Johnson seemed interested in the idea, asking if that meant a new prosecution was a live matter for the president.

The second time, Mr. Smith demurred.

“I’m not going to speak to that,” he said.
