Hello and welcome to it. How in the world are you? Good to see you. I mean it. Man, it was a... It's been a long time since... It feels like a long time anyway, since we've seen each other. And you look great. I mean that. You look great. Did you see where China has released images that they left their flag on the moon? A couple things. A. Way to be late to the party. Only by, what, 50 some years? Second, the moon is ours. You know that.

We know that. Don't be trying to think that just because you got your flag there, that you're part owner of the moon. No, it doesn't work that way. The moon is ours. What I really want to have happen is, say, Elon, Jeff Richard

any of our space flight heads to send a ship up to the moon and bring it back just to say oh did China leave a flag on the moon we need to go up and get it and bring it back to them that would be awesome

you and I both know it's not going to happen but we can only dream welcome to chewing the fast As long as we're talking about space, I see where we are going to be swallowed up by a black hole. You can write your own jokes. Go ahead. It's fine. Don't worry about it.

So, apparently, we have found the giant black hole. It's called Sagittarius A. It's a huge black hole in the middle of the Milky Way. way. Now, the earth is going to be sucked into this black hole and just ripped apart. I know. I know. It doesn't sound like a fun thing. And they've just found out that it's a couple thousand years earlier than when they had originally thought. Back in 1985, it was thought. It was thought to be 27,700 light years away. Well, amazingly, science was wrong and is reconfigured.

It is now 25,800 light years away. So we're probably good, you and I, our grandkids, probably good. After that, who knows? We don't know. Maybe they'll reconfigure it next year and it might be right around the corner. we could all be dead. It's just a thought. Just a thought.

I doubt it's going to happen. Relax. I probably, I wouldn't worry about it. But it's possible that scientists could, you know, back in 2020, we thought it was going to be

25,800 light years away. But it's only going to be until tomorrow. Now, that would not be good. That would not be good. And don't forget, we talked about last week about the Inuit people that are saying that the, you know, the skies have moved and the earth is wobbled and we're looking at different lights. And I mean, we could be on our way to get sucked into that black hole as we speak. I doubt it. But it's very possible.

And we talked last week about the different monoliths that are appearing. around the world. And apparently one has appeared in downtown Las Vegas now. So you can't have monoliths appearing around the planet without one appearing in Las Vegas. And oh my gosh, there you have it. I mean, it's been, we had one in California. We had one show up in Romania. We had the original one, or at least the one we think was the original one in Utah.

And now we have one in Las Vegas. So does it mean that the aliens are here? Sure. You know what? Yep, that's what it means. Or it means that Vegas is just dying for tourists and figures, hey, this is a good way to bring some people in. So let's put one up in town square and say we've got a monolith show up to.

A mysterious monolith has showed up in Las Vegas. Come and see it. Hey, did you know that, salads at McDonald's has been around for almost 30 years. I don't be either. I didn't realize they were around for 30 years. And to be honest, I don't think I've eaten at McDonald's a number of times that may come as a surprise.

I think we all have. I think we all have eaten at McDonald's, you know, multiple times in our life. I don't think I'm going out too far out of it. to live there. But the salad at McDonald's, according to the stories I was reading, they've been around for almost 30 years. Incredible. Incredible.

So for the last nine months during the, you know, pandemic, McDonald's salads have disappeared, gone. And they haven't returned. And it doesn't. doesn't look like they're going to. Now, because of the pandemic, McDonald's has, you know, simplified, quotation marks, simplified their menu, has helped speed up their service, according to McDonald's. And they have declined to comment on the future of its salads,

but said that we're actively exploring opportunities to bring back missing menu items in new ways. Are you? Are you? Now, they did bring back, you know, or brought to light the bacon McDouble. Apparently, they brought back the vanilla ice cream cones. I didn't know those were gone, but I guess during the pandemic, they were. And those are, that's not a bad deal. If you want to just hit a quick ice cream cone for, you know, buck and a quarter,

pretty good deal. Sometimes they're 99 cents, but usually now it's in today's world, you know, you get McDonald's cone buck and a quarter. It's a good deal. Just a quick drive-thru ice cream, Kona McDonald's, on the way home. Not that I've ever done that a million times. But for a buck and a quarter. And then they have the chocolate chip cookies.

And of course, they have the spicy nuggets now and the McRib. So those items, the Bacon McDouble, the vanilla ice cream, the chocolate chip cookie, the spicy nuggets, and the McRib, along with the Bacon McDouble. it seems as though McDonald's is parted ways with the salad, doesn't it? Now, what's what I find funny is the headline is, and it hasn't really had any big effect on McDonald's. What? People aren't clamoring for the McDonald's salad?

Get out of here. I won't hear of it. Now we'd like to have it. We would like to have the salad back, but we can't. Man, we just can. It's the pandemic and we just can't. You understand. Can I get you a bacon McDouble?

How about you, sir? Yes, you. Howard Farley. How about you? Would you like to do that? Would you like a bacon McDouble? I don't, I think Howard would take anything. Howard is an accused drug kingpin from Nebraska.

Now, he has evaded authorities for more than 30 years. Now, how did he do that? Well, in 1985, he was indicted for allegedly running the southern line, a railroad line used to move narcotics throughout the U.S. Okay? And out of the 73 people busted in the case, Farley was the only one who was never caught. Just went on the lamb.

Have a nice day. And how did they never find him? Well, he assumed the identity of a baby who had died in 1955. This was in 1985. Okay. Now, incredibly, I mean, it was a baby who was born in Lake Worth, Florida in 1954 died three months later. Wow. Now, it came to light because the government received an application for a passport renewal in February using TB's name, date of birth and social

security number. Investigators found the death records for that person and discovered that TB's social security information wasn't registered until 1983, unusual for someone born in 1954. So he had already obtained a passport on three separate occasions. And it was never picked up on in March of 87, October of 98, and October of 2008. Right? So for every 10 years, you got to renew that bad boy. And it was never picked up on until now. So, and I love how the story, he even used the fraudulent passport to travel to Vietnam in 2018. And you think, well, why is that part of the story? I don't know.

Of course he went to Vietnam. The lady that he lives with is a Vietnamese woman. Okay. Now, that woman has lived with them since 2007. So in 2018, I guess he went to Vietnam. I don't know if he was looking for a new woman. I don't know what was going on. But he was living.

And then they checked the first. fingerprints and it was confirmed that it was Farley, who was the person wanted in Nebraska, since 1985. Sooner or later, man, sooner or later they catch up with you. He had a driver's license. He had a pilot's license. He got passports. He was doing okay.

He was doing okay. Now he's 72 years old. He's getting arrested, getting broken down. I mean, at 72, aren't you just? You're like, yeah, I got you. Now, they got him for passport, a passport fraud charge? I don't know. Are we still going to go after him for what he was indicted for in 1985 or his time out on that?

I don't know, because they're talking about 10 years as far as the passport fraud charge goes. But I don't know if the indictment from 1985 still holds up. Maybe it does because he went on the lamb, so it gets put on hold. I don't know. If you're a criminal attorney, let me know. It's not in the story. And whoever did the story should have looked into that. But why would they when they're just copying, pasting information? But I digress. So we also got news that Jeffrey Epstein is alive. I know. I know you're thinking, wait. So did he kill himself or did someone else kill? kill him in prison? Well, the answer to that is no one killed him in prison. He's still alive. He was spotted in New Mexico. Okay? Yeah. There was a clip posted to the YouTube channel, ABQ Raw. And who doesn't subscribe to ABQ Raw? The narrator suggests Epstein could be seen in a red truck near the fence line of the property. The driver rolled down the

window and had a striking resemblance to the recently deceased Jeffrey Epstein. Okay. So it's got to be true if it was on ABQ Raw and the person resembled Jeffrey Epstein. Got to be true. And Sarah Gellon, who was the second in command under Gis Lane, is back in the news. And she's saying, hey, hey, hey, no, I'm not a monster who helped him attack others. I've been made out to be such a monster, but it's not true. It's not true.

It's not me. I'm a victim of Jeffrey Epstein, too. I was raped and abused weekly. And now I'm married to a NASCAR driver, and I'm living a nice life. And I did nothing to do with it, okay? It's just not me. It's Maxwell who was in trouble. She was the, you know, the person, not me.

So don't come after me. Go keep her in jail. Okay. No problem. No problem. Sure your SLK Design's office was at 66th Street address with long ties to the Epstein sex ring, but you had nothing to do with it. We believe you.

Hey, so how is President-elect, Joe Biden doing? How's he doing? Because I know that he, you know, it's been a couple weeks now since he broke his foot or injured his foot. I know the test results said that he had hairline fractures

of his lateral and intermediate uniform bones, which are in the mid-foot. foot for those of you that, you know, that don't know. And it was anticipated that he's going to have to wear this walking boot for several weeks. And then there was pictures of him kind of walking on it like you wouldn't walk on it. I don't know. We'll see. But I missed.

So part of the Jake Tapper interview with he and Kamala, vice president-elect, gluck. While I didn't listen to the entire interview, and darn the luck. I wish I would have now. And it makes me almost want to go back and listen to it. Almost. He talked about his injury in that Jake Tapper interview, and he said, what happened was I got out of the shower. I got a dog, and anybody who's been around my house knows, dropped little pup, dropped a ball in front of me.

And for me to grab the ball. Oh, man, I might have to go back and get the audio to this because it sounds like it's going to be a Joe Biden. an explanation. And I'm walking through this little alleyway to get to the bedroom. And I grabbed the ball like this and he ran. And I'm joking running after him and grab

his tail. And what happened was he slid on a throw rug and I tripped on the rug he slid on. That's what happened. Oh man. Not very exciting story. Well, it wasn't if you're the dog. He's got two German, he's got

two German shepherds. He's got the younger major and an older champ. Oh good. And they lived in Washington with them already. So they're just, they're used to living in Washington, D.C. They're going to be bringing those with them to the White House and a cat now that they saved for, this is a CNN story.

Now they saved the cat story for an MSNBC exclusive. But, so he gets out of the shower and he's naked and the dog is there and drops a ball. for him to play with uh-huh and he bends down to grab the dog by the tail no wonder the dog was

running away uh no thank you uh no i've been around you getting out of the shower before it's time for me to go so that he's chasing after the dog and trips on the floor mat okay all right, you got it.

by British Culture Secretary, Oliver Dowden to add disclaimer calling the show fiction after the drama's fourth series. And Netflix said, yeah, you know what? No. We have no plans to add a disclaimer to the crown. It's clearly a work of fiction. It's always been presented as the drama and just that a drama. We have every confidence our members understand it's a work of fiction that's broadly based.

on historical events and we see no need to add a disclaimer which is kind of weird actually because i you know and netflix bows down to almost everything almost almost and you know why not call it a work of fiction i mean they guessing they want you to kind of believe that it isn't a work of fiction one would think that even though that's not what they said so if you're a big fan of the crowd which I have really tried to be a big fan of the crown and I just I don't know why I just can't get into it I love the royal family I love the whole thing I thought you know what I'll try again just between you and me I'll try again okay because it's on its fourth season I mean that's that's some good streaming time that's some good binge time there with the

crown so I'll try I promise I'll try to get into it again for those of you that you know want to get into it okay Fine. I'll try again. And I just, I don't know. There's something there. Something there that's missing for me. And I haven't figured out what it is yet. I also saw where Penn and Teller now are doing a master class on, yes, you guessed it, magic.

Kind of cool. I mean, look, those masterclasses, if you're looking to get me a gift, go ahead and get me the masterclass. pass. Go ahead. And just give me the all-you-can-eat-pass for Masterclass and just let me dive in. Because some of those guys would be great to hear from and learn from. No question about it. I mean, it'd be fun. And the Pennant-Teller magic class might be really fun and informative.

And you could learn something. Learn a little extra magic in your life. Everyone. Everyone could use a little extra. magic in their life. That's why you need the pen and teller masterglass as they teach the art

of magic. That might be worth it, you know, just for fun. And the big news that my son was all wound up about is Floyd Mayweather has decided that he's going to fight Logan Paul.

Just incredible at this YouTube douche gets to fight these guys. I'm good for him. I'm making big money. And he's, you know, good for him. And there's an early pricing paper. I told my boy, if he's going to want to watch the pay-per-view, get it now.

Because the early pricing is like $24.99. And that's the deal. That's a good deal. I mean, not really, but that's the price. Because it goes all the way up to like $70 in February when the fight is. And I would say due to that. That's way too much money to be paying for the, I don't know what all the undercards are going to be. So, you know, it would be worth 2499 to catch some of the undercard fights and the Mayweather Logan Paul fight.

You know, the exhibition round. Right. Undefeated, 12-time, 5-division boxing superstar Floyd Mayweather. 50. I can't even say his name. right superstar Floyd Mayweather 50 and oh I hope just you know I'm not a big fan I don't want anybody get hurt I don't want it to be an ugly thing but it would be a real shame if Floyd Mayweather just took out Logan Paul and made Logan Paul just part of the mat

wouldn't that be fun yes it would Yes, it would, my friends. Yes, it would. So we've talked about, also, long as we're in the break room, we might as well get Phil Collins back in it. Remember we talked to you about the wife's claims that he was, you know, he was not showering, and he was impotent, and, you know, so they were, you know, all wound up his attorneys,

and Phil was all wound up about his, you know, hey, I do too wash. I'm very hygienic, and my mental health. health is fine and strong, okay? And I'm not, I'm not impotent. I'm Phil Collins. So his attorneys got it thrown out. It's not going to be part of the case now of their, of their divorce case. I mean, she's looking to get all kinds of big money from Phil.

He's already giving her a bunch of money. She's, she's living in one of Phil's houses in Miami with her new husband, saying that, oh, you know, this is my house. I'm mistaken. No, Phil tried to kick him out. They wouldn't leave. So now apparently they've reached an agreement that the couple will move out in January.

Oh, I wouldn't want you to have to look for a place over the holidays. That would just be horrific. Right? Right. Now, according to her, Phil was supposed to give her half of the new home and $20 million. and, you know, she's, I mean, they're all, I mean, look, if your dad and your husband is Phil Collins, right?

I mean, he's paying the bills, clearly. That's the deal. I mean, Phil is, you know, he can't stop the money from coming in. And so, you know, I get it. But at some point, Oriane has got to give up the ghost. She's not going to, though. She wants that money. And good luck getting it.

So apparently she's going to have to sit for a deposition now, but with COVID and everything else, good luck that happening for a while. Hell, if I'm her, I don't even move out of the house. I'm just saying, ah, you know what? I said I was going to move out in January, but I can't now. It's COVID, and I know you want to sell the place,

but I just can't right now. Later, later we'll move out. In Animal News, I see where the house passed a bill, You know, the Carol Baskin Tiger King bill that would ban big cat ownership. And the legislation is going to address the trade and ownership of big cats. That's kind of cool. And Carol's been after that act for a long time, the Big Cat Public Safety Act, passed by 272 to 114 vote and would ban the private ownership of big cats like lions and tigers.

Okay. Good luck. And then I see as I read that. story oh she's happy that you know it's finally coming up for a vote it's decades long effort it's going to end the abuse of cubs and private ownership some big cats and they don't know what's going to happen to the bill in the senate i do bye we're not going to tell people what animals they can and cannot own but then i see where one of the baskets big cat rescue people uh candy cows there's his name and there's her name and there's a picture over there at the old

Barrow Baskin's Big Cat Rescue. She's been volunteering there for, you know, a little over five years. And she was busy doing her little volunteering work at the Big Cat Rescue and was off to feed the tigers. And she decided that she was going to go feed Tiger Kimba. And there's a little Kimba. Hello, who's a cute little Kimba? Come here, Kimba. And apparently she reached in.

to unclip the cage because the cage had been clipped shut, which according to Baskin is the universal signal not to open a gate. You don't open a gate without the coordinator coming to assist if it's clipped shut like that. So I guess our girl Candy was saying, I don't need, who need, I don't need the supervisor. the coordinator. I don't need that. I'm just coming to feed the little Kimba cat, you know. And so when she stuck her hand in there,

Kimba decided to, you know, your arm looks a lot like food too. Nearly tore it off. Oh, I mean, they're saying it nearly tore it off. I don't know. It sounds like it was really bad. They said that the other staff members rushed to her safety. They pulled her away.

They used a belt as a tourniquet, then packed her arm in ice packs to try to save it. It did not sound good. It did not sound good at all. Now, the volunteer has said, don't let anything happen to the cat. It was my fault. Okay.

Well, now the cat is, you know, in quarantine and locked away because this lady stuck her hand in there and said, here, here's some food for you. No, not the arm. Not the arm. I mean, serious business where in the with those big cats

I mean even Carol Baskin has said this can happen in a blink of an eye duh duh maybe and you know look I don't want to tell people they can and cannot own what they want to own you want to own a tiger you go ahead and own a tiger

you want to own a lion go ahead and own a lion you want to own a leopard you want a leopard out in your backyard go ahead but you be a responsible for it. And if something bad happens, it's on you. That's how it's supposed to work. And do I want the leopard running around the backyard of my neighborhood? Not really. I mean, you know, my kids are outside in the backyard and I don't want the leopard jumping over the fence in the middle of the afternoon going, hey, thought I'd stop by for a little snack. I don't necessarily want that to happen either.

One more animal story. Remember we, I mean, I've talked to you about it here on chewing the fat since the beginning of the, you know, the lockdown, the animals were going to start taking over cities again. And we did stories where animals were coming into the cities and starting to take over stuff. Well, in the UK, they're still a little wound up. And they're saying, we're taking it over. In the beginning of the lockdown in the UK, in a North Wales community,

when the lockdown first started happening, these sheep came down into town because there was no traffic and no people, and they were just eating people's hedges and eating their gardens and taking over. And they're not leaving. I mean, that now. There hasn't been a lot of people around. So now people are all excited because they found the sheep inside a hotel. The sheep figured out how to open the doors of the hotel, how to go inside.

Apparently one sheep at least knew how to wait for the hotel to show, or for the, elevator to show up and was riding up and down on the elevator so just be careful the animals could still take over this these wild animals taking over cities is not over yet vaccine or no vaccine animals are still taking over man we have an all-new story from operation varsity blues yeah nice operation varsity blues so apparently Laurie Loughlin is, you know, she's still struggling in prison, we know. She's got a few more days left. You know, she's going to be out by Christmas. Predicted here on this show, she'll be out by the 18th of December.

Promise you, if that's the 18th, if we go back and look at the calendar, the 18th is a Friday. I'm telling you, I know Christmas is not a Friday, but they're going to want to get her out before Christmas. I'm telling you, she's out on the 18th. Anyway, now that Felicity Huffman is back doing, her, you know, we told you that she's back doing a comedy show and she's back to work. And now everyone's saying, well, will Lori get back to work?

Are they going to welcome her with open arms when she gets out of prison? Ooh, no. According to insiders, going to be a more difficult road for Lori than Felicity. I know, I know. According to the insiders, Felicity, just wanted to do the right thing. and she's not taking her new comedy gig at ABC for granted either. She's grateful that there is work available for her. She felt remorse about her actions from the moment her crimes were revealed and the pain not only in her professional life but in her personal life.

Oh, okay. So Loughlin, on the other hand, pleaded innocent for 12 months and they finally gave into their legal. situation and admitted that they paid college inside of Rick Singer 500,000 to get their daughters. This is about rich people. Okay. All right. It's about public perception, my friend. Okay? And it's about how they handled the situation and wealth and power. And so now according to this expert, the expert recommends that both women do, an interview where they, you know, apologize and tell their side of the story.

I disagree with that. Maybe Felicity gets away with it. Lori, no way. No way. Lori needs to do an interview. I'm sorry because there's no way she comes off looking good at that. Don't do it. Lori call me.

When you get out on the 18th, call me because that's a bad move. Just keep your head down. Get a gig. Find some place that, you know, will give you a job. I know you had the whole deal with the Hallmark Channel, and you probably, it's going to be a while for them to get anything going for you again, ever. But you can do a show that will end up on the Hallmark channel that kind of opens the door for Hallmark to say, see,

see, everything's fine, come on back. But don't do the, come to Jesus interview. on ABC or any of those networks, 60 minutes, or any of it, don't do it. Because you're not going to come off good. It's going to come off as Lori wealth and power and the kids are still out there. And life is not going to be good. It's not going to be good. So it's just my chewing the fat advice for Lori, which she probably thinks she doesn't need.

But she does. And just don't do the interview. Lori, get out of prison, enjoy your family, that it's all cleared up. Get every, get your parole out of the way, get your service hours out of the way, and then get back to work and put this scandal from Operation Varsity Blues behind you.

The sale of food beverages and alcohol for in-store consumption prohibited. No on-site consumption of dishes or drinks at restaurants. The restaurants can still serve takeout and delivery meals and cocktails. but bars, wineries, breweries, closed. Wow. I mean, when the, according to the California plan, the, and I think this holds true to many places, actually, when the intensive care unit capacity in a region's hospital network

drops below 15% lockdowns kick in. And it kicks in for a minimum of three weeks. So that's science, right? Right. It's all about science. So don't kid yourself. Okay? Now look, for those of you that are thinking to yourself,

well, we saw the lady complaining about the restaurant and the film industry, do they get shut down to? No. Okay? The county health departments have responded that unlike diners, film crews are regularly tested for COVID. and must follow other strict health practices. So zip it.

Okay? Don't tell me that they've got some special thing going on. They don't. Okay? Well, sure, I mean, sure they have a special, you know, permit from the governor and the mayors to shoot their films and be together. But it's their own little bubble. And they get regularly tested.

Not like you, dirtbag, owning your own restaurant. You don't get tested. The people coming to your restaurant, we don't know if they get tested, so they can't come to your restaurant. Okay? And don't even talk to me about why the movie industry is so much better than you. You already know the answer to that, don't you? Yes, of course you do.

Okay, so don't talk to me about how mad you are and how devastated your small, businesses are and you're going out of business and people aren't working and don't have unemployment money. Zip it. Okay? The ICU capacity is below 15%. So stay home and don't let me catch you in the park with your friend.

Got it? Stream and subscribe to more Blaze Media content at theblaze.com slash podcasts. Good news for pot smokers, the house, the United States Congress. voted to federally decriminalize marijuana. Marked the first vote ever of its kind on a federal level. Wow. They passed a measure that would decriminalize marijuana use at the federal level. So 228 to 164 was the vote.

Okay. We shall see. how that works out for everybody. I know they, just make it legal. It's stop it. Nobody believes that it's the gateway drug anymore. Although, it probably is. So, just take it easy, okay?

You dope heads. It's not, you know, unless they do it all, you know, when Joe Biden gets in, don't worry, I mean, President-elect, when he, takes over it'll be fine we'll all be friends we'll all get together it'll be a wonderful thing and we'll just be able to get high and be friends and it'll just be well gosh it'll just be wonderful won't it i mean we just want to we just want to get together and be one united states don't we

I think we do. We do. Although making the rounds this weekend on social media was a big list of things that is going to be difficult for Trump supporters, conservatives, Republicans to get past. You know, because I know that, you know, the Democrats, while one hand saying, uh, sit down and shut up and zip it, the other hand is saying, we want to come together. We need to reach across the aisle And we need to reach out to all Americans and come together Well, at least that's what you know, President-elect I hate saying that

Joe Biden is saying But this list Making the rounds this weekend on social media Kind of goes against that It talks about tolerating Obama For eight years And never calling him not my president never harassed and attacked Obama supporters.

And when you hear Joe Biden saying, let us all be a United States again, huh, because for the past four years, Democrats have gone scorched earth at almost every turn. I know, because normally I don't talk politics, and I'm sorry.

I read this list, and it's been in my head now for a couple of days, and I got to share it with you, just so you know that it's out. out there. And if you saw it, I'm not going to, you know, I'm going to comment very little on it. But I just want you to know the list is out there. And it's a reminder of some of the things that have happened the last four years. So if you were thinking to yourself, you know, it's starting to make sense that we should be a United States again. And I get it because I'm with you. It sounds good.

And you do want to be the United States again. And we still are. technically the United States. I get it. But we are more divided than ever. You know that as well as I do. And, you know, as I said, for the last four years, they've gone, you know, scorched earth at almost every turn. And according to this list, you, meaning the Democrats, have salted and poisoned the fields of America, and now you want to grow crops. The problem is, 72 plus million of us have memorand, is longer than a hamster. I don't know that I would make that all 72 million. But okay, I'm with you.

We remember the Woman's March, Vagina Hats and All, the day of the inauguration. We remember the four years. That's been over four years ago. That's amazing. That stupid Woman's March. Wow. That was the day I was doing a broadcast live when it was happening. And I was trying.

I was very disappointed. I didn't get an opportunity to talk to Cher because Cher was there. And we had a reporter there. My man, Michael Pelke. was there reporting and he was trying to get share for me and never happened. Maybe it was his fault. And the list goes on. We remember

the woman's march, vagina hats and all. We remember the four years of attacks and impeachment based on heresy and no evidence of illegality. We remember not our president and the resistance. We remember Maxine Waters telling us telling her followers

to harass us in restaurants. We remember the president's spokesperson being kicked out of a restaurant simply because she works for the president. We remember hundreds of Trump supporters physically attacked. We remember Trump supporters getting doxed and fired from their jobs. We remember riots and looting. And by the way, that docks and fired from their jobs may actually happen again. That's good news because they're, you know, creating those lists. But hey, let's all come together. We remember a comedian holding up the president's severed head. We remember a play in Central Park paid with public funding

showing the killing of President Trump. We remember Robert De Niro yelling F. Trump at the Tonys and getting a standing ovation. He still is. That guy. We remember Nancy Pelosi tearing up the state of the union address. We remember the totally in-the-tank mainstream media who repeated the Trump colluded with Russians lie daily for more than two years. We remember politicians and media repeating Trump said white supremacists are good people

and Trump is a racist lie, adnosium for four years. We remember the nonstop. live fact-checking on our president and his supporters that was consistently wrong or dishonest. We remember non-stop in-your-face lies from politicians and open cover-ups from the media. We remember the president and his staff being spied on illegally. This is all stuff that, this is just an incredible list. We remember five senators shot on a ball field. We remember every so-called comedy show turned into nothing but a Trump hate fest.

We remember 95% negative coverage in the news media while Trump achieved some of the best results. on record for the American people. We remember the state governors asking and getting everything they asked for and then blaming Trump for their problems. We remember a Trump top aide verbally assaulted in two D.C. restaurants. We remember people banging on the Supreme Court doors. We remember an all-out blitzkrieg of pure lies and slander about Brett Kavanaugh as members of the media and senators who were in the Democratic presidential primary tried to completely

destroy his life. We remember that we were wrongfully called every name in the book by the intolerant preachers of tolerance because of our support for President Trump. We remember being told that Trump supporters would be ineligible to serve in public office and that we should be sent to re-education camps? We remember all of that. So this list goes on and this list ends with my friends will remain my friends, regardless of their political opinions and positions. But a party that has been on the attack for four long years does not get a free pass with me. That's what the note says when they say it's time to unite.

and then they say, feel free to copy and paste. So it was making the rounds all weekend. And someone, you know, obviously copy and pasted it so I could see it. And I did. And I wanted to share it with you because, you know, this stuff we are supposed to forget. And maybe we should. Maybe we should. But, you know, it kind of feels like we shouldn't, doesn't it?

It kind of feels like we shouldn't. But then, you know, we get to be. the story where the first, you know, Christmas star in nearly 18, 800 years will be visible? The Christmas star in nearly 800 years is going to be visible this year. It's amazing, right? I mean, that's Jupiter and Saturn align really close to the sky. And so that when you look up at the sky with your naked eye, they almost appear to be collided. which gives you what is referred to as the star of Bethlehem or the Christmas star.

So maybe that's a sign that we need to, you know, I don't know, get back to that Christmas star feeling. And remember what Christmas is actually all about. And remember that it's going to happen on that week of Christmas, when we're all supposed to be in the mood and staying home, being with our families, and probably many states will be still beyond lockdown, and look up at the sky and see the Christmas star, think, well, maybe we do need to just get along.

And then again?
