Sen Josh Hawley has now been joined by a chorus of 11 other Republican Senators screeching "Auld Lang Sedition" challenging Electoral College certification poking Senators Portman, the rest of the Senate, and democracy in the eye.

While I Was Out For Surgery, The Country Went Batshit Crazy
I had to have a common surgery on December 11. The surgery went as planned, it was the post-operative complications from the anesthesia that put me back in the hospital for over a week. I was able to come back home this week to recover, in time for Christmas to the relief of my family. I will be fine. Thanks for asking.
I have only been catching up on the news over the past couple of days, and all I can say is “WTF, America? What the hell just happened?”
Strom Thurmond: From Segregationist to Servant of the Regime
Robert Hampton, American Renaissance, December 22, 2020
Joseph Crespino,
416 pages, $32.81.
“When Strom Thurmond ran for president, [Mississippi] voted for him. We’re proud of it. And if the rest of the country had followed our lead, we wouldn’t have had all these problems over the years, either.”
In 2002, then-Senate Republican leader Trent Lott upset many people with those remarks. They were meant as a friendly tribute for a man who had just turned 100. However, journalists turned it into an endorsement of segregation. Strom Thurmond’s 1948 presidential run was defined by segregation, and despite his decades of later service, he never overcame his reputation as a Southern reactionary.
Trump makes good on threat, defunds the military by vetoing defense spending bill

Today was the 10th business day since Congress sent him the bill, meaning that he either had to follow through on his threat to nuke it or do nothing and let it quietly become law via a “pocket veto.” Yesterday Jazz speculated that Trump might back down, reasoning that the president doesn’t like to be thought of as a “loser” and would resent seeing his veto overridden by Congress, as will almost certainly happen here. Trump might be willing to defund the military in a go-nowhere bid to repeal Section 230 and preserve Confederate names for military bases but serious legislators aren’t, so why bother?
I’m here in Bluffton, South Carolina, just across the bridge from Hilton Head Island, and putting the boob tube on in the evening means being bombarded with political ads for the Georgia runoff election on Jan. 5. One thing that is very clear is that the two Democrats Warnock and Ossoff, are America-hating communists. The GOP is airing a commercial that has Warnock on video saying “God Damn America!” on several occasions. This is the new face of the Democrat party. Of all the politicians in Georgia, the head honchos of the Democrat National Committee put these two commie goofballs up as their senatorial candidates.
