Bits & Bytes

AOC: AOC responded to criticism of her decision to vacation in DeathSantis’ Super Dangerous State by dunking on Gov. Ron for going “missing” for the past two weeks. It turns out he’s been with his wife, who is undergoing cancer treatment. Classy, Sandy. Real classy.

Then, she sent what is possibly the weirdest and least self-aware tweet of her career (which is saying something). Clearly annoyed that anyone would criticize her partner’s Berkies, she sneered, “Republicans are mad they can’t date me they can just say that instead of projecting their sexual frustrations onto my boyfriend’s feet. Ya creepy weirdos.” Also, “It’s starting to get old ignoring the very obvious, strange, and deranged sexual frustrations that underpin the Republican fixation on me, women, & LGBT+ people in general. These people clearly need therapy, won’t do it, and use politics as their outlet instead. It’s really weird.”

So says the woman who routinely lies with a straight face and makes absolutely everything about politics. Enjoy these snarky replies to her rant: “I don’t know any Republican men interested in dating socialists.”

“i feel like most people’s frustrations with AOC aren’t sexual but rather stem from her being a moron who won’t ever shut up.”

“imagine sending this tweet and thinking everyone else is the creepy weirdo”

“Well, this broke the cringe meter.”

CNN: At 7 am on 12/31, medical analyst Dr. Jonathan Reiner said the Times Square New Year’s Eve celebration is an unwise, completely unnecessary, superspreader event.

At 8 am on 12/31, entertainment correspondent Chloe Melas excitedly touted CNN’s Time Square New Year’s Eve celebration which she promised would be jaw-dropping and super fun.

EDUCATION: John Stossel compares the quality of teaching in public vs. private schools.

EPSTEIN: CLICK https://rumble.com/vrnniz-theres-more-on-epsteins-death-that-hasnt-been-released-top-pathologist-shar.html [4:43] to hear the coroner who was at Epstein’s autopsy say why he believes it was homicide.

J6: CLICK https://www.facebook.com/watch?v=458673802496337 [5:35] to hear Rep. Jim Jordan trash the January 6th Committee investigation. Watch this one.

Also, after the committee dropped its demand for former President Donald Trump’s records, Trump issued this statement: ”The reason that they dropped the records request is that they don’t want this horror show to happen to Biden and Hunter in three years. This also changes the entire complexion of their request, not that there are any documents that would be incriminating or a problem for me — but the Witch Hunt continues!”

MAMMALIAN BIOLOGY: CLICK https://www.facebook.com/watch?v=2693446834289813 [4:38] to hear Ben Shapiro defend the male-female dichotomy. I especially like the point he makes that a trans man is not a woman; he is an effeminate man.

MISSOURI: They’re done with the pandemic. On Friday, Gov. Mike Parson allowed his state of emergency declaration to expire. It has been in place since March 13, 2020.

NUREMBERG CODE: On December 6, a lawsuit was filed with the International Criminal Court accusing Anthony Fauci, Peter Daszak, Melinda Gates, William Gates III, and twelve others of numerous violations of the Nuremberg Code.

The Nuremberg Code is a list of ten principles to which physicians must conform when carrying out experiments on human subjects. Coming out of the Nazi Nuremberg trials, it is accepted worldwide.

Number ONE of the ten is this: “The voluntary consent of the human subject is absolutely essential. This means that the person involved should have legal capacity to give consent; should be so situated as to be able to exercise free power of choice, without the intervention of any element of force, fraud, deceit, duress, overreaching, or other ulterior form of constraint or coercion; and should have sufficient knowledge and comprehension of the elements of the subject matter involved as to enable him to make an understanding and enlightened decision.”

PAXLOVID: Pfizer’s new antiviral oral drug has been granted emergency use authorization by the FDA for treatment of mild-to-moderate cases of COVID-19 in patients 12 and up. However, it should be known by patients that it can cause severe or life-threatening side effects when used with common medications including some anti-coagulants, some anti-depressants, and some cholesterol-lowering statins. It is also not recommended for those with severe kidney or liver disease.

TRANSPARENCY: Informed Consent Action Network (ICAN) has filed a lawsuit against the CDC and the United States Department of Health and Human Services to force them to produce COVID-19 vaxxx safety data. “The FDA and CDC have now made crystal clear that their promise of transparency with regard to COVID-19 vaccines was hogwash,” they say.

TUCKER CARLSON: CLICK https://www.facebook.com/watch?v=331083408651257 [7:06].

VAXXX: I think this news item is evidence that natural immunity is the only way we’re going to go from pandemic to epidemic to endemic. – “New COVID-19 cases in the United States have soared to their highest level on record, as the Omicron coronavirus variant is estimated to have taken over the virus’s Delta variant as the most prevalent strain contributing to new COVID-19 infections.”

WESTERN AUSTRALIA: The Aussie PTBs have some odd ideas about how viruses work. People are allowed to eat and share food at a restaurant and they can host private mask-free parties in their homes. But dancing is not permitted at home or anywhere else … except at weddings.

WHO IS LIKE UNTO GOD: [4:54] – It’s sad that the local Christians didn’t mount some kind of on-going prayer effort in response to the Satanic Temple’s blasphemous display. But a Catholic student group drove hundreds of miles to do it.

They appear to have kept their protest as it should be, both peaceful and prayerful. I could’ve liked it if they’d been more polite and prayed silently while the “Baby Baph” was installed. Shouting down opponents is what the other side does; IMO, we should be better than they are.

Wouldn’t it be awesome if all the local Christian churches got together to schedule at least one person to be there any time the building is open to pray aloud and/or read from Scripture while the display is up? This is a spiritual battle. We need to bring spiritual weapons to it!

Hoping for a Happy New Year

2A: The owner of Beverly Hills Guns says the crime wave that has spread to upscale areas has led to him selling a whole lot of guns to first timers needing home defense. “Everyone has a general sense of constant fear, which is very sad. We’re used to this being like Mayberry.”

FAKEBOOK: Worth watching! [7:27] – John Stossel is suing Facebook over its biased “fact check” labels.

FAUCI: Saint Tony is finally admitting that the number of children supposedly hospitalized because of COVID are mostly hospitalized for some other reason. Children are tested for COVID as soon as they enter the hospital, even if it’s for a broken leg. Next up … Tony admits the same thing is true for adults.

Why is this happening? Apparently, the PTBs who issue all of the Left’s thinking and talking points have dictated that COVID messaging shalt now change. Two days ago, MSNBC’s Chris Hayes tweeted, “For vaccinated folks amid omicron wave: The risk went from something we hadn’t really dealt with before in our lifetimes, to something that looks more like the flu. The flu can still be dangerous—but we do not reorient our lives around the flu.”

Wait, wut? Last week, that was a conspiracy theory that would get you banned on social media. Unfortunately, the jackasses making rules for school kids in Los Angeles haven’t gotten the message. They’re upping their mask requirement from cloth or surgical to N95s.

HERO: A fuel tanker collided with a bus carrying more than 60 passengers. Truck driver Sirizani Butau was one of the first people on the scene and managed to save the lives of eight passengers who had been trapped inside the bus. He suffered third degree burns and is currently being treated at a Kadoma hospital.

MASKS: In 2003, during the SARS epidemic, an Australian trade minister warned mask distributors that they could be prosecuted for suggesting surgical masks offer unrealistic levels of protection from the disease. She cited Professor Yvonne Cossart of the Department of Infectious Diseases at the University of Sydney, who said the masks are only effective so long as they are dry.

And this week, CNN’s Medical Analyst (and former president of Planned Parenthood) Dr Leana Wen admitted that cloth do not protect wearers from COVID-19. “Cloth masks are not appropriate for this pandemic. It’s not appropriate for Omicron. It was not appropriate for Delta, Alpha, or any of the previous variants either because we’re dealing with something that’s airborne.”

Remember: The SARS virus is also known as SARS-COVI-1, while COVID-19 is known as SARS-COVI-2. They are so closely related that people who recovered from and gained natural immunity to the first appear to be at least partially, if not wholly immune to the second.

MYOB: The article at the link tells an excellent tale about a legally exempt maskless individual who was challenged by a self-righteous Karen and sent her scurrying away in shame. It’s a good read.

“Regardless of an individual’s reasons for wearing or not wearing a face mask, do we really want to exist in a society where strangers feel they have the right to publicly demand explanations from individuals whose personal health choices they question? Do we want to live in a society where media outlets and government officials encourage and applaud this sort of behaviour?”

PRIDE AND HUMILITY: [21:07] – There is a fundamental flaw in this “pride is the opposite of humility” and “the humble think of themselves as dirty” theology. That flaw is that pride and humility are not two sides of a coin, but rather fall on a kind of number line where humility is in the middle.

On one end is traditional pride, where the individual believes, “I am better than God sees me.” On the opposite end is self-contempt, an upside down pride that, while still focused on the self says, “I am worse than God sees me.” In the middle, at the point of perfect humility, the eyes of the soul are not on the self, but on God, and the attitude is always, “I am exactly as God sees me.“

Satan is just as happy to have souls focused on how worthless they are as he is with having them focused on how great they are. In fact, I’d say he likes it better, because it is a great deal harder to cure. I saw this in our two toy poodles.

Dewey was a traditionally proud dog, a wanna-be alpha pack leader. Daisey is a timid, anxious dog who always seems to be expecting someone to yell at her. It was far easier to convince Dewey that we were the alphas of the pack than it has been to convince Daisey that she is loved and safe.

VFAUXTUS: CLICK https://twitter.com/RudyHavenstein/status/1476299585618268164 [:51] to hear VFAUXTUS give a rambling, nonsensical answer to a reporter’s question. Matt Whitlock notes that it really highlights her staff’s complaint that she “refuses to wade into briefing materials.”

WALKING THE WALK: Actor and comedian Chris Tucker turned down a $10-12 million offer to do a sequel to the hit movie Friday. He has become a born-again Christian and doesn’t want to cuss or smoke weed on camera anymore.

GRAMMY NOTES: Yesterday’s Buzz Art Challenge was “draw silver bells.” I love what Mama came up with! FYI: These challenges are coming with one art supply per day in a 12 Days of Christmas calendar from Arteza.

An Amazing Time

Mama Buzz texted that it must be amazing what technology I’ve seen develop in my lifetime which, naturally, got me rambling down memory lane. LOL

I’m so old, I remember visiting one of the first computers at Cornell with my advanced math class. It filled a whole room and had less computing power than a kids’ toy has now. Daddy actually did a program on that computer using punch cards that filled a box … that he dropped and had to resort LOL.

Thinking back to my childhood and adolescence, I remember all of these happening: polio vaccine, color television, remote controls for the television, push button phones, self-dialing phones, typewriters where the letters were on a ball that moved instead of the whole carriage moving, and 8-track, then cassette tapes replacing vinyl.

Bop had one of the first self-dialing phones. It used a plastic punch card that you pushed out the holes for the number, then pushed the card into the slot and it dialed as it wound itself back out. It was state of the art when he got it. He loved gadgets! LOL

And, of course, we all saw the moon landing together as it happened.

As an adult, I watched closely as photography and videography switched from film to magnetic tape to laser disk to digital disks. In computing, typewriters were supplanted by dedicated word processing machines which were again supplanted by personal computers that ran word processing programs as well as other programs. The first time I saw a screen with icons on it, I had no idea what I was looking at. The owner said, “You click on the icon and it opens a program.” I still had no idea what I was looking at. LOL

When I was pregnant with Marine Princess, Daddy had to do his architecture thesis on Cornell’s computer. I went to a course to learn how to do the inputting and remember being SO confused about it all. Then I had to go to Cornell to get it printed out, while I was hugely pregnant with a high risk baby and early contractions! Fortunately, the guy at the gate saw how huge I was and gave me a pass to park right at the building so I didn’t have to go out to timbuctoo and ride a bus in and walk. I still wish I could’ve just typed it LOL.

Daddy’s first CAD stations cost tens of thousands of dollars. His firm took out a bank loan and when Kuwait happened and his partners all quit, we got stuck paying it off. I was so nervous about moving those expensive machines to our easy-to-invade basement! Now they’re utterly worthless. I have more computing power in my $95 ReUse it refurb than those things did!

And you’ve seen how fast storage has changed. I’ve got boxes full of CD back up disks for my early years, then one small external hard drive with some more years on it. Now I put a whole year on a thumb drive and there’s room left over! Of course, then there’s the PHONES, cuz I remember when Ma Bell was all we had and she charged whatever she charged. It’s been quite an amazing time to be alive!

COVID-19 Home Treatment

Dr. Levy’s Simple, Inexpensive, and Extremely Effective H2O2 Protocol for Early Onset Treatment of Any Virus

When a runny nose or slightly sore throat is already present, it is recommended that 10- to 15-minute nebulization sessions be undertaken roughly four times daily or until a symptomatic relief is realized. Many individuals report significant improvement only a few hours after the first one or two treatments. But it would be advisable to persist in these treatments several times daily for at least 24 to 48 hours after you feel everything is completely normal in your sinuses, nose, and throat.

Regular off-the shelf 3% hydrogen peroxide can be utilized. Preparations of greater pharmacological purity can be obtained if desired. For most adults, the 3% concentration can be utilized in the nebulization chamber undiluted. This optimizes the degree and rapidity of anti-viral and anti-pathogen effect.

For some, the 3% concentration results in too much stinging/burning in the nose. Such individuals can dilute with water until they find their highest tolerable concentration. Nearly everybody can tolerate a 50/50 combination of the 3% hydrogen peroxide and water. However, still lower concentrations can be utilized with clearly beneficial effect.

Prevention/Maintenance

As it is a completely non-toxic therapy, nebulization can be administered as often as desired. If done on a daily basis at least once, a very positive impact on bowel and gut function will often be realized as killing the chronic pathogen colonization present in most noses and throats stops the 24/7 swallowing of these pathogens and their associated toxins.


If daily prevention is not a practical option, the effectiveness of this treatment is optimized when somebody sneezes in your face or you finally get off of the plane after a trans-Atlantic flight. Don’t wait for initial symptoms. Just nebulize at your first opportunity.

Required Equipment

Nebulizers are very common and inexpensive, probably under $40, and a one-time purchase should be your only monetary outlay for the good health of your entire family. Various models are widely available on http://www.amazon.com and elsewhere; just make sure they can emit very tiny bubbles in an extremely fine mist. Also, it is probably best that your nebulizer operates on standard household 120-volt AC as opposed to a battery pack that will invariably run down and constantly require recharging or replacement.

Notes from CtH: I received this in an email from a friend with a note that Dr. Levy wishes the information to be disseminated widely.

Dr. Thomas E. Levy, MD, JD’s web side is @ https://www.peakenergy.com/.

Good Riddance to 2021

CANCEL CULTURE: Dr. Robert Malone, a key contributor to mRNA vaccine technology and an outspoken critic of COVID-19 mandates and rules, has been permanently suspended by Twitter. He continues to post his views on his substack page and at his website (links below).

CHICOMS: Police in Jingxi city paraded alleged violators of Covid rules through the streets. The four suspects had to carry placards displaying their photos and names. China banned such public shaming and parading of criminal suspects in 2010, but the practice has resurfaced 13 million in China are barred from going outside, even for food.

CHILLAX: The CDC reports that the milder new Omicron variant now accounts for 58.6% of the strains actively circulating in the United States. The Delta variant, which had been the dominant strain in the past few months, now accounts for 41.1%.

Paul Hunter, professor in medicine at the University of East Anglia, says, “COVID is only one virus of a family of coronaviruses, and the other coronaviruses throw off new variants typically every year or so, and that’s almost certainly what’s going to happen with COVID. It will become effectively just another cause of the common cold.”

GENDER: A new Rasmussen Reports survey found that only 18% of Americans believe there are more than two genders. The majority of these unscientific sheeple are rich, white Democrats.

GHISLAINE MAXWELL: She’s been found guilty on five of six counts of helping Jeffrey Epstein sexually abuse teenage girls.

One of the victims’ lawyers said the conviction “is a welcome confirmation of the veracity of the charges brought against her on behalf of the very brave young women whom she directly participated in abusing.”

Then he offered a foreboding message to other co-conspirators. “Doors closed by Epstein’s death may be opened by the very strong motivation Maxwell now has to unlock every door to which she holds a key,” he added.

J6: CLICK https://www.facebook.com/watch/?v=628555278573587 [3:44] to hear an interview with Jan 6 inmate Jake Lang, whose phone connection was “terminated by the facility” as he described conditions he and his bail-less co-defendants are enduring.

MOMS: Many, many years ago, a man in a grocery store stopped and told me that. It warms me to this day.

NURSES: CLICK https://twitter.com/libsoftiktok/status/1475189121102405632 [:29] to hear a hero-to-zero nurse say her hospital called and begged her to come back to work, because they are desperately short-staffed.

RIP: Harry Reid has passed away at the age of 82, following a long battle with pancreatic cancer. The Nevada Democrat served as Senate majority leader from 2007 to 2015. He is credited with shepherding Obamacare through the Senate in 2010 and with abolishing the filibuster for judicial nominees (except the Supreme Court) in 2013. The latter came back to bite Democrats in the butt after Republicans made the change for Supreme Court nominees as well, then confirmed three justices to the high court during the Trump administration.

SOUR GRAPES: Keith Olbermann tweeted, “Somebody gift these people some vasectomies”, and the responses were brutal.

“The real life incel has opinions.” [Incel = Involuntary Celibate]

“It’s sad when one’s bitterness congeals into a worldview.”

“Raising a good family is the best thing a man can do. What a sad, cramped view of the world it is to react with churlishness towards that.”

“Actually, it’s fine they reproduce, but we are glad you refuse to.”

GRAMMY NOTES: I made this to thank the kind souls who gave me three different kinds of watercolor papers I don’t have – hot-pressed bright white, toned (tan), and textured bamboo.

HOME SCHOOL UPDATE: Mama had them use their Hot Wheels cars to make a tree diagram. I remember a home schooling mom say, “People think I have a room with little desks in a row, but really, we sit around in our jammies and ask each other questions.”

Abortion Stories

FiveThirtyEight thought it would be a great idea to solicit abortion stories on Christmas. It didn’t go quite as they hoped. A few of the replies were of the “hurray, I don’t have to pay child support” or “screw you, I’m glad I aborted” genre. But most were like the sampling below.

“Do you have a murder story? We want to hear from you. Fixed it.”

“Wow, really? On Christmas?”

“Usually, they save this for Mothers’ Day.”

“King Herod approves this Christmas tweet.”

“Sure, Google Kermit Gosnell.”

“Yes, but it’s sort of an alternative history story where your mother aborts you and this article never happens.”

“My mother was forced to have an abortion at age 15. It left lasting physical and emotional damage. Because of it, I was born over 10 weeks early and nearly didn’t survive. My brother was also nearly born that early. She was told she was unable to have more children after that.”

“The doctors advised my mom to abort me as they assumed I’d have a poor life quality, I praise the Lord that she ignored them and that I am here today alive and in good health!! Abortion is wrong, it’s killing an innocent human.”

“We were told our son had a fatal genetic disorder & when my wife refused to abort the doctor sneered, ‘What’re you, religious?!’ He’s a healthy 7 month old now & currently asleep on my shoulder. No genetic issues, though he was born premature and spent some time in the NICU.”

“On Good Friday years ago, about 30 of us carrying large crosses walked 7 times around an abortion clinic in Dallas. A young woman inside saw us, came out weeping, & chose to keep her baby. The abortion clinic went out of business 6 months later & we held a worship service there.”

“My mother wanted to abort me, she was poor and in my country it was a war going on. but procedure failed. Now i have 3 children and I am the only child taking care of her.”

“I know three women that have had abortions. All three were talked into it by someone else. All three say it’s the biggest regret they have in their lives.”

“Got a girl I love pregnant unexpectedly and we got an abortion and have both regretted it every single second since. Worst decision of our lives.”

“When I was in high school, my mom asked me if I would like to be a big brother again? She was pregnant and I could see the joy. My father berated her and threatened her with violence until she had an abortion. It destroyed her.”

“Had multiple abortions. Convinced myself they were just ‘cells’. Got older, got married, had a child. When I saw my child being born, I realized what awful, horrific choices I had made. Forgive us God, for we know not what we do.”

“I feel that to my soul. I weep for my baby that was never born on earth.”

CDC: The “experts” have officially shortened the self-quarantine time for asymptomatic cases from ten days to five.

PoliMath (@politicalmath) tweeted, “Every time you see a story about the federal gov’t changing their COVID response in light of the winter surge, you need to ask, ‘Why are they doing this now instead of during the summer/fall surge? I have my theory and it’s not flattering.

“My theory is that basically everyone working the COVID response at the federal level thought that the South deserved their summer surge, that it was entirely b/c they were too dumb to get vaccinated, so it’s fine to let them suffer.”

Also … I never thought about this until Dan Bongino mentioned it, but apparently the summer disease surge in the south is a thing. Like the winter disease surge in the north (which I’ve lived with all my life), it’s about people staying indoors because of the weather. In the south, summer is too hot; in the north, winter is too cold.

CRAZY KAREN: CLICK https://twitter.com/ATLUncensored/status/1474552407707242498 [1:51] to see the viral video from a Tampa-to-Atlanta Delta flight. The California resident has been charged in Georgia with assaulting by striking, beating, or wounding, a crime which is punishable by a fine and/or up to one year in jail if found guilty.

FAUCI: CLICK https://twitter.com/ForTheGreater13/status/1475795962006286336 [1:48] to see Saint Anthony explain two pieces of previously censored vaccine science. What on earth will cultists like Nicolle Wallace do now?! CLICK https://rumble.com/vriact-cringeworthy-msnbc-host-nicolle-wallace-calls-herself-a-fauci-groupie.html [:24].

My fave comments: “Dr. Fauci needs to be censored and perhaps blocked for publicly disagreeing with Dr. Fauci on vaccine development, research, and efficacy.”

“Pity you can only see his top half, and not the furious back peddling going on underneath.”

“Fauci is covering his demonic little arse. It doesn’t work. Hello ADE. I feel the rats are jumping ship.” [Note: ADE is Antibody-Dependent Enhancement, which is when a vaccine makes an infection worse. Scientists have been warning from the get go that the ‘rona jabs could cause this.]

FAUXTUS: CLICK https://rumble.com/vriae8-watch-eight-times-joe-biden-promised-to-shut-down-the-virus.html [:36] for a montage of Candidate Joe promising to “SHUT DOWN THE VIRUS.”

And, uh, Joe? That “vaccine” you keep harping on? It was the result of President “No Plan” Trump’s “Operation Warp Speed.”

FLU: N.b., This has NOTHING WHATSOEVER to do with the fact that the too-sensitive COVID tests don’t distinguish between the flu and the ‘rona. So shut up.

GASLIGHTENMENT: Over the past week, Facebook and Instagram users have been punished for sharing a quote by one of the leading minds behind the American Revolution.

AZQuotes cites the Thomas Paine quotation as appearing in “Citizen Paine: Thomas Paine’s Thoughts on Man, Government, Society, and Religion” (p.123) John P. Kaminski (2002) Rowman & Littlefield.

LGB: I think the man who called Biden on Christmas and said, “Let’s go, Brandon” to him is the kind of guy who does rude stuff because he thinks he’s a laugh-riot prankster. I dislike bad manners and I hate pranks. But whatever. It’s the Left’s outrage that is the story today. After 5 years of spewing spittle and vicious insults over their Donald “LITERALLY HITLER” Trump, none of these people has any moral authority to complain about what LGB guy said to FAUXTUS… least of all “Fang Banger” Eric Swalwell!

MIGRATION: Census Bureau statistics show that Red states are increasing in population while Blue states are shrinking.

TESLA: A man in Finland decided he’d rather blow up his Tesla than pay the exorbitant bill required to replace its battery. Evidently, a $23,000 bill to replace a battery is par for Tesla’s course. Musk has claimed the total battery replacement should cost between $5,000 and $7,000. But FindMyElectric.com found that the real total is in the $20,000 range.

Another investigation found that Tesla’s claims about battery longevity don’t pan out in real life. But battery issues are not the only problems Tesla vehicle users have encountered. Following nearly a dozen crashes that left one person dead and 17 injured, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) opened a formal probe into Tesla’s Autopilot and full self-driving (FSD) systems.

You can see the video at the New York Post link, but it’s more than 8 minutes and in Finnish, with no English subtitles.

VAXXX: The “Fauci is an idiot” screenshot above is from an Epoch Times email alert. He wishes we had a mandate banning the dirty unvaxxxed from boarding airplanes … because that has worked SO well on cruise ships.

WHITE ELEPHANT: Grandma’s reactions are so funny! [:49] – This family did a White Elephant (Yankee Swap or Dirty Santa) theme of “stolen from Grandma’s house.” But rather than go buy the tackiest stuff they could find at the thrift store, they each went and visited Grandma … and secretly swiped something! The video is her reactions to them opening up their loot.

GRAMMY NOTES: I painted this by following along with a free Michele Webber tutorial. I love the way the rose looks like it is raising its arms in joyful adoration. 🙂

PRAYER REQUEST: Our youngest has tested positive for the ‘rona. She’s in her third trimester and, blessedly, past when #2 came way too early, but not yet up to where #1 came a bit too early. Please pray for a mild case that gives her natural immunity and that God’s will be done in regards to us. Dearest spent the holiday with her and her family.

CATHOLIC: The Catholic Church claims to be the one “true” church. But this isn’t to suggest that other churches are false. “True” is meant the way a carpenter uses it. In carpentry, projects must be plumb, level and square to be successful.

  • Plumb means the vertical pieces are perfectly vertical.
  • Level means the horizontal pieces are perfectly horizontal.
  • Square means the corners are all perfect 90° angles.

When all the measurements in a project are plumb, level and square, they are “true.” In the same way, the Catholic Church claims its doctrines are “true.”

COVID-19: CLICK https://www.facebook.com/watch?v=342907537261634 [5:37] to hear Dan Bongino and Gov. Ron DeSantis talk about the suppression of treatments in favor of promoting fear and government control.

CLICK https://rumble.com/vrhl0e-after-promising-to-shut-down-covid-biden-says-there-is-no-federal-solution-.html [:05] to hear FAUXTUS (who campaigned on stopping the virus) tell us there is no “federal” solution; it’s up to the states.

CRT: “The fact that Nikole Hannah-Jones has been honored with a MacArthur Foundation ‘genius grant’ and a Pulitzer Prize, and has had the New York Times backing her error-riddled and fundamentally mistaken 1619 Project as a curriculum throughout the United States, tells us that we live in an intellectually degenerate moment in history. That she has been granted an endowed chair (despite no doctorate) and is heading a new center with $20 million in funding at Howard University bespeaks a collapse of standards.” – Thomas Lifson. Click the link; the rest of his article is worth reading.

KIDS: A recent study has found that lockdowns, masks, and fear have significantly impacted the intellectual, social, and psychological development and health of our kids. CLICK https://twitter.com/FaceTheNation/status/1475209878415323140 [1:40] to hear a report.

KWANZAA: “’Kwanzaa’, celebrated exclusively by white liberals, is a fake holiday invented in 1966 by [a] violent nationalist rival to the Black Panthers. … It’s as if David Duke invented a holiday called

‘Anglika,’ which he based on the philosophy of ‘Mein Kampf’ — and clueless public schoolteachers began celebrating the made-up, racist holiday.” – Ann Coulter. There is more at the link.

THE VIEW: Since Meghan McCain got sick of their abuse and left the show, the liberal shrews are having trouble finding a replacement. They don’t want an actual conservative who can present logic and data, of course. They just want another pseudo-conservative willing to sit still and take their crap.

I confess to being very uncomfortable with the four-on-one format of this show and Fox’s The Five. It always feels to me like the varsity football squad scrimmaging against a middle school team.

GRAMMY NOTES: Today’s art challenge was “Paint a picture of Santa.” The top one by Bunny is “St. Nicholas feeds the hungry.” The bottom one by Bootz isn’t titled. I’d like to think it’s Santa honoring the Baby Jesus in the manger with Mary and Joseph standing by, which is what Mama tells me she’s working on. But the orange blob that I thought was Jesus is labeled “Santa’s bag.” So I don’t know! LOL

BORDER: Fox News reports on Remain in Mexico [4:00] – Also, CLICK https://www.facebook.com/watch/?v=207481718253055 [7:24] to hear NewsMax’s latest update on the drugs and guns flooding over the border. Their border specialist has some good points.

COVID-19: Florida’s new surgeon general, Dr. Joseph Ladapo, has issued a statewide public service announcement in support of commonsense COVID prevention strategies, like boosting the immune system with zinc, quercitin, and Vitamins C and D. He also supports the use of monoclonal antibodies in acute cases, and as prevention in high-risk patients who have been exposed to COVID-19.

In New York City, essential workers who are vaccinated, but test positive for COVID-19, after they are asymptomatic for 72 hours.

Asymptomatic Vermonters who have gotten a positive rapid test are clogging up emergency rooms and wasting the staff’s time and preventing people who are actually sick from getting prompt care.

Health officials in South Africa have stopped quarantines and contact tracing for asymptomatic cases of COVID-19, saying these measure are “no longer appropriate.”

FEAR: The Left REALLY wants us to believe the virus is Super Duper Dangerous! During an interview, Erin Andrews socially distanced from Aaron Rodgers. When they thought the cameras were off, they hugged. It’s all just theater.

Over the holidays, Dems pushed the “flying unvaxxxed is madness” meme and Fauci says the vaxxx should be required for air travel, even though it wouldn’t make flights safer. But Maxine Waters was caught flying maskless. She even got to NAP without a mask on.

They’re also calling the Omicron “extraordinarily contagious,” but according to Dr. McCullough it’s got an infectivity rating of 4. The original Wuhan strain was a 2; the Delta is a 10.

Fortunately, the Left’s attempts to keep us cowering in our closets are failing. The Transportation Security Administration (TSA) said 1.7 million travelers were screened at checkpoints across the United States on Christmas Eve, more than twice as many as the 847,000 screened on the same day in 2020.

FILIBUSTER: The Effing Bee is sticking a “fact check” on this graphic. Cuz, it was only SOUTHERN Democrats who held up the Civil Rights Act for 60 days!

HERO: This Oklahoma sixth-grader has been honored for saving two lives in the same day. During school, he used the Heimlich Maneuver on a choking classmate. Later, he saved a woman from a burning house!

VAXXX: “Inconvenient”? What if it causes a permanent disability or death? [:44] – CLICK https://twitter.com/RastaRedpill/status/1474291409113042955 [2:20] to see a pharmacist admit that there is no informed consent and he shouldn’t be giving the shots, but he does it because he’s been told to. The print out that supposedly lists safety information is tightly folded and glued; it looks like it’s got all kinds of stuff on it, but when it’s opened, it’s totally blank.

GRAMMY NOTES: One of my SkillShare classes taught about drawing a subject, then analyzing what is characteristic about it so it can be simplified into a cute cartoon that is still recognizable as that subject. Making something cute generally involves making it more baby/toddler like –i.e. bigger head, bigger eyes, rounder shapes. I applied these ideas and am really happy with both of my puffins.

FAUXTUS: CLICK https://twitter.com/bennyjohnson/status/1474447807524319235 [:15] to hear Slow Joe say, “Let’s go Brandon. I agree.”

OMICRON: This week, CNN reported on the “first Omicron variant death” … but the County Public Health Department says the man died with the variant, not from the variant. CLICK https://twitter.com/dancohen3000/status/1473480933579923456 [:47].

Also this week, UK Health Minister Gillian Keegan was forced to admit there has been only one death which was again with not from Omicron and that of the ten Omicron hospitalizations, none are on ventilators. CLICK https://twitter.com/TheMapRoom/status/1472448190376988674 [:45].

PROJECT VERITAS: On Friday, a New York judge ruled that The New York Times improperly obtained and published attorney-client privileged legal documents belonging to Project Veritas and ordered the Times to return all the materials and delete every mention of them from their own files, computers, cloud, and websites.

TRANS: [5;55] – USA Swimming official Cynthia Millen has resigned in protest over the participation of transgender swimmer Lia Thomas in women’s competitions, saying in the resignation letter she can’t back a sport that allows “biological men to compete against women.” Millen has been involved in the sport for some 30 years.

Comment on this article at Epoch Times: “The fact that female-to-male trannies are competing with (and stealing wins from) bio men speaks volumes.”

VAXXX: The USS Milwaukee (a U.S. Navy warship) has paused its deployment to South America due to a COVID-19 outbreak among its “100 percent immunized” crew. The Navy’s press release says, “A portion of those infected have exhibited mild symptoms. The vaccine continues to demonstrate effectiveness against serious illness.” The statement did not say how many of the crew were infected.

Comment on this story at Epoch Times: “An unvaccinated friend called to let me know that she had COVID. She got it at work from a ‘fully vaccinated’ person (two jabs PLUS a booster) who was the source of the outbreak. She had a very mild case. The ‘fully vaccinated’ person got VERY sick.”

GRAMMY NOTES: Mama Buzz is planning to have the kids do an art project for each of the 12 days of Christmas. The first was, “Depict what the beginning of the holiday season looks like for you.” Bunny’s is the church Nativity and choir singing. Bootz says of his, “Mary and Joseph are sad, because they are cold and hungry. The yellow is the Christmas star. The orange is the evil star.” Further questioning uncovered that the “evil star” is Herod. The lower left is obviously by Mama. Apparently, Buzz wasn’t interested in art.
