Awkward Phases
The past two weeks have been so crazy busy and yet slowly surreal. Both Christmas and New Years Eve are officially over. This is where I begin my annual introspection as I get ever so close day by day to January 20th. As of today after nearly a three month stint in therapy for my…

State of The Union
Will you be watching hopefully Biden’s last SOTU Speech this evening? A news alert from Truth Social came up on my screen. Thankfully a bipartisan bill named the Laken Riley Act has had 37 Democrats joining the Republicans to pass this legislation. Unfortunately for Biden though, it is a little too late to mention her…

The Border Bill Fiasco

Still this is not the final vote. Rep. Steve Scalise has been tallied to have been the winner of this secret ballot. Yet like…

The Status Quo
Two of the loudest voices I heard from Wednesday, before my Wi-Fi went out was a Former Speaker and a Fox Host. Former Speaker Newt Gingrich has maybe a thing or two he could say having been in that position. However Kilmeade had some kind of chip on his shoulder with Rep Tim Burchett. Yet…

Chaos Erupts
The thought of Rep. Matt Gaetz actually accruing all the votes necessary didn’t seem feasible this morning. Boy was I wrong. When he first came onto the scene a few short years ago he was energetic and a Republican. I understand both sides of this issue. The CR, the Continuing Resolution is an enabling function…

Impeachment Inquiry
For the first time since the Clinton Administration we are going to see a real to goodness evidence based Impeachment Inquiry. There is no doubt about it this has to happen and Speaker McCarthy has made it official. Finally since the Republican Majority came to power at the beginning of this year this is the…
