New Year’s Eve

DAILY PRAYER: Dear Lord, We pray today in a special way for all the people You have sent into our lives. In Jesus’ Name, we pray. Amen.

AULD LANG SYNE: CLICK https://www.youtube.com/shorts/P1w-5GGTeyQ to hear the whole poem and its meaning.

MINNESOTA: In other news, Minnesota has taken voter fraud to new heights, having passed a law that allows a single registered voter bring up to 8 unregistered people to a voting station on Election Day. These 8 people need not provide any standard documents (like a driver’s license or utility bill) provided the single registered voter signs a paper vouching for them.

The one and only limitation is that someone who has become a registered voter by this vouching process may not turn around and vouch for others on that same day. Presumably, now being registered voters (who never produced a scrap of identification), those 8 could vouch for 64 new voters at the next election … and those 64 could vouch for 512 at the following election … and so on.

And just to add insult to injury, the original voter need not have been a citizen, since a Minnesota state law – signed by Gov. Tim Walz in 2023 – provides driver’s licenses regardless of immigration status. The law forbids the licenses carry any markings to indicate citizenship status and said driver’s licenses can be used to provide a name and an address for individuals to register to vote.

MUSIC NEWS: [4:07] – Fascinating!

PARENTS: This boy was not happy about kindergarten picture day. His parents still have the photo framed and on display twenty years later.

PRAYER for OUR NATION: Come, Holy Spirit, and grant each of us an abundance of Your gifts that we may worthily proclaim the truth of Your Word. In Jesus’ Name, we pray. Amen.

SEVENTH DAY OF CHRISTMAS: Today, we celebrate the seven Gifts of the Holy Spirit. BTW, if you have kids or grands, there are coloring pages for the 12 Days of Christmas that include their meanings @ https://www.thecatholickid.com/12-days-of-christmas-coloring-pages/.

VENEZUELA: [5:44] – Trump says that, as part of U.S. anti-drug trafficking operations, our troops knocked out a loading facility linked to Venezuelan drug boats sometime before Dec. 26. China and Russia reportedly oppose Trump’s pressure on Venezuela, which kinda makes me think Trump has the right idea.

Feast of St. Stephen

DAILY PRAYER: O eternal Shepherd, look favorably upon Your flock, and guard it by Your continual protection through Blessed Stephen, Your Martyr. Through our Lord Jesus Christ, your Son, who lives and reigns with you in the unity of the Holy Spirit, one God, for ever and ever. Amen.

ECONOMY: Since Trump took office, our GDP growth rate has jumped from 2.3% to 4.3%, a rate increase of 79%. An internal White House memo circulated last week said the change was due to

  1. Enacting a sweeping tax and budget bill, dubbed the “One Big Beautiful Bill Act,” which proponents say has boosted business investment and disposable income.
  2. Raising tariffs on imported goods, an effort the administration says has helped narrow the trade deficit and stimulate domestic manufacturing.
  3. Rolling back regulations across energy, banking, and environmental sectors to reduce compliance burdens and spur corporate activity.
  4. Lowering energy prices, particularly oil and gas, as part of a broader “energy independence” push, which the administration says has lowered business costs and spurred consumption.
  5. Reducing interest rates, a goal the administration has publicly advocated for, arguing that lower borrowing costs will further stimulate investment and consumer spending.

EDUCATION: Last May, he Trump administration ended the COVID pause on student loan repayments and began collecting on the debts by withholding tax refunds and other federal payments to the 5 million borrowers in default. Beginning in the first week of January, the department said that it will begin garnishing wages as well.

FRAUD TOURISM: “Democrats call it ‘social services.’ Everyone else calls it ‘money laundering.’” [14:16] – Minnesota is making New York look good.

GEORGIA: The Georgia Aquarium is located in Atlanta, DeKalb County, which is the only excuse I have for posting the video here. But I thought it was really interesting, so here it is! [12:55] – On December 17, 2025, DeKalb County CEO Lorraine Cochran-Johnson signed an executive order stating that the COVID state of emergency is officially ending and that all employees will need to return to the office, with some hybrid work allowed.

“This executive order marks an important step forward for DeKalb County. It confirms the end of the emergency period while putting in place a work plan that balances flexibility with responsibility and ensures we continue to deliver reliable, high-quality services to our residents.”

As of Jan. 5, all county offices under the CEO’s supervision will be staffed during regular business hours.

“In-person service matters. Having staff present in our offices strengthens accountability, collaboration, and efficiency across county government and improves the experience for the people we serve.”

The order allows eligible employees to work remotely if their jobs can be performed remotely. The order also confirms that wearing face masks is permitted but not required absent a new public health emergency.

How many homes do you need?” Bernie Sanders “Do I own 3 residences? Yeah. I do.” He used to say “millionaires and billionaires.” Then he became a millionaire and now he only rails against the latter.

PRAYER for OUR NATION: Dear Lord, Grant us the graces we need to humble ourselves and turn from our wicked ways, In Jesus’ Name, we pray. Amen.

DAILY PRAYER: Dear Lord, Please help us to make kindness our default position, except when to do so would violate Your Truths. In Jesus’ Name, we pray. Amen.

CATHOLIC: This is a beautiful talk. [20:09] – I am hypersensitive to perfume and, before I became too affected to attend Mass at all, I would stay in the cry room. One Sunday in the late 1980s, I went to the cry room as usual, but found it filled with youthful confirmands, all dressed up and smelling much too good. My little girl and I retreated to an adjacent, empty room, only to have Bishop Matthew Clark (Rochester, NY diocese) come in with his assistants to vest. I explained why we were there and tried to leave, but he said no, we should stay. Before he vested, he got down on his knees and had a sweet interchange with my daughter.

CHRISTIAN CULTURE: Recently, there has been controversy surrounding Chip and Joanna Gaines who decided to feature a same-sex couple on their Back to the Frontier reality show. The Gaines couple have been public about their Christian faith and, in the past, have been associated with the Antioch Community Church, which holds traditional views on marriage.

I don’t actually care about the issue, but I was intrigued by Allie Beth Stuckey’s comment about CLICK https://www.youtube.com/shorts/xUT4wcpDJVA. “You can believe that you have found a way to out-compassion God.” Whoa … what an excellent way to think about this! As for assuming that money and/or fame are God’s rewards, it was Satan who offered all that stuff to Jesus. Jesus promised His followers the cross.

FOUND on the GUADALUPE RIVER: A Texas woman founded a Facebook group where Texans can share photos of objects and pets lost in the flood or found after. I looked at a few pages and the tears were running down my cheeks.

HYPOCRITES: Democrats trying to benefit from MAGA-ites who are pissed about the Epstein files have been asked why they didn’t demand the files be released while Biden was in office. Rep. Pramila Jayapal (left) said she was too busy with other things. Rep. Jamie Raskin (right) said he doesn’t know.

PRISONER EXCHANGE: All ten Americans who have been held in Venezuela have been swapped for the return of more than 250 Venezuelan men (mostly Tren de Aragua members) whom we deported to El Salvadoran prisons.

Among those released was Wilbert Castañeda, a former U.S. Navy SEAL. His brother, Christian, said in a statement to The Epoch Times: “We have prayed for this day for almost a year. My brother is an innocent man who was used as a political pawn by the Maduro regime. We knew that President Trump would not leave a decorated SEAL behind.”

RUSSIA HOAX: “A treasonous conspiracy” [7:40] – Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard has declassified documents revealing “overwhelming evidence” that then-President Barack Obama and his national security team didn’t like the intelligence community’s assessment that Russia had no ability or desire to interfere with the 2016 presidential election. At Obama’s direction, they suppressed publication of this assessment and manufactured fake evidence aimed at destroying Donald Trump and his administration.

GRAMMY NOTES: True. I was born this way. My first grade teacher remarked once that I was a “lone wolf.”

Fake News Hoax List – Part 1

RUSSIA COLLUSION HOAX: In 2016, the FBI launched an investigation called Crossfire Hurricane to follow up on claims that the Trump campaign had colluded with Russia to influence the election outcome.

The 2019 Mueller Report failed to provide conclusive evidence that the Trump campaign had conspired or coordinated with the Russian government’s efforts to influence the election.

The 2020 Durham report criticized the FBI’s handling of the notorious Steele Dossier and noted procedural flaws and confirmation bias in the Crossfire Hurricane investigation.

“HANDS UP! DON’T SHOOT!” HOAX: In 2014, an 18-year-old black man named Michael Brown was shot by police officer Darren Wilson in Ferguson, Missouri. Early witness accounts, particularly from Brown’s friend Dorian Johnson, suggested Brown was shot while surrendering with his hands up, saying, “I don’t have a gun, stop shooting!” However, examination of bullet trajectories and Brown’s DNA on Wilson’s gun, supported Wilson’s claim that Brown charged at the officer after a struggle.

Hands Up! Don’t Shoot! became a rallying cry for protests against police violence which protesters claimed was particularly targeted toward blacks. Black Lives Matter used it to raise millions, which the founders spent on themselves. Supporters of the phrase argue it doesn’t matter if Darren Wilson was justified in shooting Michael Brown, because cops are racists.

JUSSIE SMOLLETT HOAX: On January 29, 2019, a gay, black actor named Jussie Smollett reported to Chicago police that he had been attacked by two masked men who had beaten him while shouting racial and homophobic slurs. He also claimed they had poured bleach on him and placed a noose around his neck while yelling, “This is MAGA country!“

The story gained widespread attention, gaining Smollett tremendous sympathy. But when Chicago police investigated, they learned Smollett had hired the two men to stage the attack as a publicity stunt to boost his acting career. In December 2021, Smollett was convicted on five counts of lying to police.

COVINGTON KKKIDS HOAX: On January 18, 2019, a group of students from Covington Catholic High School in Park Hills, Kentucky, attended a March for Life in Washington, D.C. While waiting for their bus home at the Lincoln Memorial, the group was accosted by a Native American activist named Nathan Phillips, who was participating in the Indigenous Peoples March.

A short video of the event portrayed the students as aggressors who had surrounded and taunted Phillips. Longer videos later revealed a more complex situation, but the initial narrative led to the boys being doxxed, threated, and condemned to such an extent that the school had to temporarily closed due to safety concerns. As longer videos emerged, some media outlets and public figures retracted or softened their criticisms, acknowledging the complexity of the situation.

Nicholas Sandmann, the boy who had been most specifically targeted, filed defamation lawsuits. His suits against ABC and The New York Times failed, but he won $250 million from The Washington Post and undisclosed amounts from CNN and NBC.

“VERY FINE PEOPLE” HOAX: [2:10] – Trump’s 2017 Charlottesville comments were misrepresented to suggest he is a racist. The full context shows he was referring to non-extremist statue protesters, yet the “very fine people” lie has been repeated ad nauseum, even as recently as a year ago when Joe Biden was running for re-election.

  • The Bluebird of Bitterness, aka, Bob, aka, my best researcher sent me this link @ https://scifiwright.com/2024/02/hoax-list/. It’s just a long list of the Breitbart links. I am planning to do bits of it each day (or so) in the format I used above. I included some additional links, but most of what I’ve used is from asking Grok for a run-down on each of the hoaxes.

DAILY PRAYER: Dear Lord, Grant us the graces we need to know You more fully, to love You more deeply, and to serve You more perfectly. In Jesus’ Name, we pray. Amen.

FREDDY: Yesterday, I reported on the airport security beagle who got kicked by the jerk whose luggage he outed. Today, Border Patrol posted, Thanks to everyone for their concern about Freddy who was injured while performing his duties at Dulles airport. He was treated by his veterinarian, and is expected to make a full recovery. Here he is enjoying his favorite comfort treat – a Pup Cup!

GROK: Dearest was suspicious of a text he got telling him UPS needed to schedule a delivery. I went to X and asked Grok if the URL was a scam or a genuine link. I got back “The URL https://www.ups.com@servicemik.cfd/us is not a genuine UPS link and is likely a scam.” It then gave us a detailed analysis, including the fact that the .cfd thing is used a lot by scammers.

LANGUAGE: Reply posted by Ahmed Saleh – Well, you see, after a thorough consideration of the available information, coupled with an exhaustive mental inventory of everything I’ve learned, observed, or experienced up until this moment, I must conclude that despite my best efforts to analyze the question from every conceivable angle, I am, regrettably, unable to provide a definitive answer to this question. In short, I don’t know.

I asked Grok at X. It said, “Half a dozen” is used instead of “six” for a few reasons. It’s a concise way to express the number six, rooted in the fact that a dozen is twelve, so half of that is six. The phrase carries a folksy, idiomatic charm, often used in casual speech or writing to add flavor or emphasis, like saying “a couple” instead of “two.” It can also imply an approximate count, suggesting a small, manageable group without being overly precise. For example, “I bought half a dozen eggs” feels more conversational than “I bought six eggs.” Historically, it ties to trade and commerce, where items like eggs or rolls were commonly sold by the dozen, making “half a dozen” a natural shorthand. Plus, it just rolls off the tongue nicely in certain contexts.

In short, it sounds folksy and is fun to say.

PSA: Voicemails are typically stored on the server of your cellular network provider, not directly on your phone.

SCOTUS: On X, @shipwreckedcrew wrote, The FACT that six Justices were OK with signing onto an opinion where Justice Barrett took a personal shot at Justice Jackson is a VERY STRONG indication that Jackson has alienated her colleagues and there is a growing lack of respect for her work. Justices circulate Memos among with their legal views on certain cases in order to bring others around to their thinking. Given what she has written in her dissent, imagine the memos that Jackson must have sent around in this case. Barrett aptly boils it down to a single point — Jackson would elevate the primacy of single district judges about the Executive because they are “the court” in the separation of powers.

Not The Bee (link below) highlighted some of the worst quotations from Jackson’s decision, including the use of the colloquial phrases “full stop” and “. . . (wait for it) . . .”

The thread on that post is an interesting read. Samples: My crystal ball predicts Jackson will be “pushed” out” forcing her to retire from SCOTUS. … Let’s be honest…in a non-DEI world, KBJ wouldn’t have made the top 50 list of candidates for nomination to SCOTUS. … Jackson was picked by Autopen to fill a quota. Another commenter noted that Jackson rudely failed to end with the customary “respectfully dissent.”

GRAMMY NOTES: I recall reading about a longitudinal study that compared mortality rates for people who ate restrictive diets. The people in the middle, those who had eaten a balanced diet, lived the longest.

DAILY PRAYER: Dear Lord, Help us to see and smell all the roses among the thorns. In Jesus’ Name, we pray. Amen.

BORDER: While most of the Chinese students and researchers are in the United States for legitimate academic reasons, some of them are here to spy on us and steal intellectual property. On May 28, Secretary of State Marco Rubio announced we will begin to “aggressively revoke” the visas of Chinese students who pose a threat and will be giving stricter scrutiny of future visa applications from China and Hong Kong.

CHINA: U.S. Trade Representative Ambassador Jamieson Greer says China has been “slow rolling their compliance” with the May 12 trade agreement, “which is completely unacceptable.” Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent says, “I am confident that the Chinese will come to the table when President Trump makes his preferences known.”

COURTS: A federal judge has ruled that DOGE employees who have satisfied the Training, Vetting and Mitigation Procedures may access the Treasury’s Bureau of the Fiscal Service, which is used by the federal government to distribute trillions of dollars in payments. The ruling came in response to a lawsuit filed by Democratic-led states.

The Supreme Court ruled that Trump has the authority to rescind the temporary legal status the Biden administration gave half a million “refugees” they had flown here to reduce the numbers being recorded coming across the border.

ECONOMY: Core inflation has dropped to its lowest rate in four years. Hmm … four years.

ELON: Thank you for your service, Mr. Musk.

FAFO: Megha Vemuri, the 2025 class president of MIT, gave a pro-Palestine/anti-Israel speech in which she accused her alma mater of promoting genocide. A day later, she was told she would not be allowed to participate in Friday’s graduation ceremony.

When I googled to get Bongino’s correct title, I got a taste of how the Laughing Stock Media are covering Bongino. I won’t waste your time; it’s what you would expect.

HAMAS: Israeli Omer Shem Tov, who was freed in February after spending 505 days in Hamas captivity, told CNN that his captors desperately wanted Kamala Harris to win the 2024 election. “They were very scared of him. … [A]s soon as Donald Trump was elected, they understood that he wanted to bring us back home. … When Trump became president, … they started giving [me] more food. … Stopped cursing me. They stopped spitting on me.”

HHS: Bobby Jr. has canceled a $766 million federal contract with Moderna for experimental mRNA-based H5N1 bird flu vaccine.

ICE: Immigration and Customs Enforcement officials took 40 people into custody on Nantucket Island and Martha’s Vineyard; they included MS-13 gang members, as well as at least one child sex offender. The Coasties helped to safely and efficiently remove them from the islands.

GALLUP’s latest poll asking, “How much confidence do you have in television news?” netted t.v.’s talking heads a minus 44 rating, with only 12% of respondents choosing “a great deal” or “quite a lot” vs. 56% choosing “very little” or “none.”

CLICK https://x.com/BreitbartNews/status/1928475916604203211 [1:21] to hear how the leftist media talks to Trump’s people. Maybe if these jerks had talked to Biden’s people like this, they wouldn’t need to be trying to blame the Biden White House for not telling them the president was a vegetable.

MIDDLE EAST: Last July, Israel took out Hamas’s political leader Ismail Haniyeh and Mohammed Deif, the head of Hamas’s military wing.

Last October, they took out Yahya Sinwar, who was the leader of Hamas at the time and the mastermind behind Hamas’s Oct. 7, 2023, terrorist attack on Israel.

This week, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu announced they have eliminated Mohammed Sinwar, who had succeeded his brother.

DAILY PRAYER: Dear Lord, We pray that one day all people come to faith in Yeshua Messiah. Amen.

FAKE NEWS: Heads up, friends. The entire “Elite Stories” YouTube channel @ https://www.youtube.com/@EliteStoriesYT is FICTION that is presented as serious “news” type reporting of “real” events. It seems to be designed specifically to spread fake news to conservatives, maybe so we’ll mindlessly pass it around and then get called on how “stupid” we are. Or maybe it’s just click bait made by some basement-dweller while noshing on Cheetos and sucking down Red Bull.

JUDGE BOASBERG: U.S. District Court Judge James Boasberg is so dirty! – Boasberg is the judge who is trying to stop Trump’s deportation efforts. CLICK https://www.facebook.com/reel/656603713525344 to hear two reasons why he should have recused himself from this case.

Boasberg, the chief judge of the U.S. District Court in Washington, D.C., was appointed to the bench nearly 15 years ago by President Barack Obama. During his tenure on the FISA court, he authorized surveillance of certain members of Trump’s 2016 campaign.

After returning full-time to the federal bench, he declined to recuse himself from the sentencing of former FBI attorney Kevin Clinesmith, who had pleaded guilty to doctoring a 2017 email asking to extend FISA permission for the wiretapping of a member of the Trump campaign. Boasberg sentenced him to 12 months of probation and 400 hours of community service.

It will come as no surprise that he clerked for the U.S. Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals before later joining the Justice Department as a federal prosecutor in Washington, D.C.

JUDGE REYES: Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth joined the mounting criticism of federal judges by President Donald Trump on Saturday, mocking the judge who blocked a ban on transgender troops in the U.S. military and suggesting she had exceeded her authority.

NASA: A NASA spokesman said the astronauts who were trapped at the International Space Station since June 2024 have been classified as ‘on official travel orders as federal employees’, which got them a whopping $5 per day extra in their pay packets.

Just in case you’re wondering why Trump won in a landslide.”

MEDIA: ABC News and anchor George Stephanopoulos have agreed to settle President-elect Donald Trump’s defamation lawsuit by paying $15 million to charity and $1 million to cover Trump’s attorney fees. They will also issue an apology.
