up to date, i would like to make shout-out for former illinois governor, bruce, name was on the suit but he initiated the idea to bring it. huge victory for the freedom of public employees to be independent in their political thinking. paul: didn t win reelection but legacy achievement. my hit would be to american institutions, remember the dona fascism that was supposed to hit us with the trump presidency, somehow didn t seem to arrive. we had an election, democrats won, they re not complaining about the results. so maybe american democracy works and maybe the constitution holds up pretty well after all and maybe will even in the next 2 years, all right, so american institutions, if you have your own hit or miss of the year be sure to tweet it to us at jer on fnc, that s it for this week s show, thanks to my panel, thanks to all of you for watching, i m paul gigot, happy new year.
governor for hanging tough. paul: mary. a hit for japanese prime minister shinzo abe who is confronting the problem of an aging population with a new immigration law in japan. the lower house has passed legislation that will offer low-skilled workers visas, and this is a step in the right direction for japan. paul: dan. paul, this is a hit for the bush family. this week s funeral, one word that stands out is graciousness. they graciously invited president trump and melania to the funeral despite the clear rancor. president trump in turn sent the presidential plane to bring the casket from houston, spoke well of the trumps the bushes, excuse me. these are the gestures that add up to a civilized society, and we saw them on display this week in washington. paul: thank you all. and remember if you have your own hit or miss, be sure to tweet it to us at jer on fnc.

i m giving a miss to quebec for banning face veils aimed at muslim women who wear things likely jabs and like hijabs and burkas. if you re banning things, i think you ve lost the argument. it just goes to show two things; controversial things do actually happen north of the border, but secondly, look, identity politics isn t just an american affliction, it happens in canada too. paul: dan. a big hit to brigham young university s studio c. they have amassed one billion views on youtube despite the fact that their comedy is squeaky clean. hard to believe you can actually still make people laugh without wallowing in the gutter. so i think this studio c, brigham young university, this could be the start of something good. paul: remember, if you have your own hit or miss, be sure to tweet it to us at jer on fnc. thanks to my panel, thanks to
