Sore Losers

Speaking of the U.S. Men’s hockey team, there’s this little reaction from our cousins to the north:

Team USA has returned to gold medal form, and the Canadians couldn’t be more upset about it. It’s an all time cope and seethe sessions from our neighbors to the north, and their rage couldn’t be more hilarious. Thankfully, our fellow Americans have done their patriotic duty and rage-baited the canucks into oblivion over the past two days.

Read the post and follow the links therein for the full flavor.

And my personal condolences to my Canuki Readers

Yeah, We Know

Finally, the rest of the world discovers what we conservatives have known for years:  the Brooklyn Barmaid is a vacuous Marxist with little intelligence and an astonishing ignorance of, well, just about everything.

I actually started to watch AOC’s little speech at the Munich conference and had to quit because I was embarrassed by the spectacle of her complete meltdown.  I mean, she had no idea of any of the topics she was quizzed on — she couldn’t even recall her party’s talking points, let alone formulate any cogent or reasoned responses to the simple questions put to her.

The only negative outcome I can see coming from this is that she should have been exposed during the 2028 primaries instead of now.  She wouldn’t be able to debate prospective candidates from her own party*, let alone heavy hitters like Marco Rubio or J.D. Vance.


*I’m assuming that the Social Democrat Marxists might actually have a better candidate than this fool, but I could be mistaken.

Undeserving

Yeah, this is the right thing to do:

House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) has denied a request to allow the late civil rights activist Rev. Jesse Jackson to lie in honor in the U.S. Capitol Rotunda.

At first glance, this would appear to be a spiteful act.  When you look at the criteria for said honor, however, the truth emerges:

The Speaker considered past precedent of mostly reserving the practice for former presidents and select former government officials and military honorees.

And Jackson wouldn’t qualify under a single one of those categories, would he?  Because he never did a single damn thing except ride the Racism Grifter Express (which, to be fair, I think he did actually create).

And while we’re there, an honest IRS investigation and audit into his “Rainbow Coalition”‘s finances might in all likelihood have ended with him in jail for financial fraud or at best mismanagement.  But that was never going to happen, of course.

Had Jackson ever been elected to office on the Token Negro ticket, he would have been proven to be as inept and venal as the asshole (another “community activist”) who was eventually elected to the Presidency, on the same ticket.

Africa Wins Again

Here’s a totally unexpected development [sic]:

Barack Obama’s presidential center in Chicago that is supposed to open this year is reportedly costing Chicago taxpayers more and more money.

There have been surging public infrastructure costs for the project the former president said would be a “gift” to the city.

However, taxpayers are stuck with the bill and no government agency can provide an accounting of the total public cost, despite months of queries and FOIA requests.

Obama vowed in the beginning to privately fund the project via donations to his foundation, Fox News reported on Saturday.

But building the infrastructure to get the project up and running is publicly financed and cannot move forward without those funds.

And:

Tax filings showed the Obama Foundation had only deposited $1 million into its $470 million reserve fund.

Chicago authorities have “failed to produce a reconciled total showing how much city taxpayers have committed or how current spending compares to the roughly $175 million discussed when the project was approved.”

So where has all the money gone?  Silly rabbits, it’s  Africa  Chicago:

“Illinois Democrats are leaving taxpayers high and dry and putting them on the hook for hundreds of millions of dollars to support the ugliest building in Chicago. Illinois’ culture of corruption is humming along with pay-to-play deals to their allies and friends while lying to Illinois voters.”

Hey, those taxpayers voted for him in their millions and now they’re getting their reward, good and hard.
