“When a clown moves into a palace, he doesn’t become a king. The palace becomes a circus.” — A supposed Turkish proverb I found online and it seems apt. 🤡🎪
Watched the oddball “Why Charlie Brown, Why?” (1990) which is a Peanuts special about a girl named Janice who ends up being diagnosed with leukemia (aka: blood cancer). 🩸

Here is a scene where Linus defends Janice from a bully. 👍

PS: The bully wears a shirt with a big “B” on it to help you ID him.

“New York City grocers say sales at their stores dropped by as much as 25% last week because of delayed food assistance benefits due to the federal government shutdown.” 🫣💸

Keep on building that economy, Donnie Drumpf my boy! 👎

Removing a monument honoring Black US soldiers has nothing to do with DEI. It’s erasure of history and it’s straight-up racism.

This is all interesting and incriminating but if only this complete turd of a President would be affected by any shred of shame… Sadly, he’s not… He’s a complete sociopath… 😔

“New York City mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani spent Veterans Day on Tuesday serving veterans in the Bronx a warm meal.” 🤔

And this: “‘There are many parades that I would not be attending because I’d be focusing on the work of leading this city,’ Mamdani said.” 🤔🤔🤔

Dude, you could’ve done both things.

One of the most profound moments in a Peanuts special, “What Have We Learned, Charlie Brown?” (1983)

“In Flanders fields the poppies blow
Between the crosses, row on row,
That mark our place; and in the sky
The larks, still bravely singing, fly
Scarce heard amid the guns below.” 😔

“One month after traveling to Albania, Mayor Eric Adams held a reception at Gracie Mansion with government officials from the Balkan nation and other members of the local Albanian community.” 🤔

What does Albania has to do with Eric “Lame Duck” Adam’s swag? 🇦🇱

Friday’s event, which did not appear on the mayor’s schedule, is the latest example of the increasingly cozy relationship between Adams and the Balkan nation as he prepares to leave office.

The fact that this shit got through really just drives home what we've always been saying. There is a propaganda war against Jews and unfortunately we are losing. How many people read just the headline before this shit was taken down?

On this Veteran’s Day, we honor those who wear our nation’s uniform and their courage, sacrifice, and unwavering service.

To all who have served on the frontlines, and to the families who have stood beside them, we offer our deepest gratitude.

The "Religion of Peace” (aka: Islam) strikes again: “The killings happened in the village of Anaz in Wadi al-Nasara, or the Valley of the Christians — an area of rolling hills in rural Homs province in western Syria. Locals say the gunman came from the direction of a nearby Sunni Muslim village.” 😔

This is the same logic as endlessly making “Tron” sequels and such… Nobody asked for this… Many think “Gremlins 2” (1990) was unnecessary and stupid… So of course! Make yet _another_ Gremlins sequel. 🎞️🥱👎
