Parody: After 5-Year Stint In Evening News, Stephen Colbert To Consider Return To Comedy


 Babylon Bee Parody  "NEW YORK CITY, NY—“I haven’t told a funny joke in a very, very long time,” quipped CBS Evening News Anchor Stephen Colbert wistfully to his staff, who nodded in agreement while producing a serious video essay about how all forms of wrongthink inevitably lead people of all races to espouse white supremacy.

"Colbert admitted his longing for a return to doing and saying funny things was reignited by his many die-hard fans who have been pointing out on social media how he used to be so hilarious.

" 'Remember when I hosted The Late Show?” He mused to a writer of ambiguous gender and hair color. “Things sure changed for me against my will once the despotic ruler was democratically elected, forcing me to upend my comedy career.”

"Taking a break from listing derogatory names for unvaccinated individuals, Colbert took a stab at writing a joke. His staffers erupted in laughter after he displayed the slip of paper upon which he had penned the hilarious three-word sketch: “Orange man bad.”

" 'I’ve still got it,” Colbert laughed.

"At press time, the writers of The Babylon Bee announced that they were inspired by Colbert's return to comedy and will stop reporting real news to try out comedy as well."

How does Stephen Colbert the man remain a Catholic when Stephen Colbert the caricature does such a good job making Catholicism ridiculous?


Fauci isn't sure that you can gather for Christmas, but is sure that you must give up your individual rights


Thomas Lifson  "The highest-paid bureaucrat in the entire federal government went on Face the Nation yesterday and let his mask slip.  He might as well have put on a Grinch costume when he responded to a question from host Margaret Brennan on whether or not people could gather for Christmas this year and answered that it is too early to tell:"

HOLIDAY LOOKAHEAD: "It’s just too soon to tell," Dr. Anthony Fauci tells when pressed whether or not people can safely gather together for Christmas this year. He says the country should instead concentrate on getting COVID cases down.. . . 

Doctor Grinch


"Fresh off the heels of his star turn as the Teeny Tiny Tyrant, Dr. Anthony Fauci has cast himself in a new role – this time as Doctor Grinch.

Is there no role he can’t play?

Well, there is one. Doctor Grinch has never played the role of a duly elected representative of the American people.

Doctor Grinch is an unelected bureaucrat accountable to no one.

Just the way he likes it.

Doctor Grinch can make recommendations, sure. But he does not have any authority to order us to avoid family on Thanksgiving or Christmas.

Come to think of it, no elected official has that authority either.

Say, remember fifteen days to slow the spread? Good times.

How naïve and trusting so many Americans were back then."

Are the Russia hoax's 'big fish' finally in John Durham's crosshairs?

"Hillary Clinton remained mum Thursday after Special Counsel John Durham's indictment of her lawyer Michael Sussman for making up the Trump-Russia collusion hoax to the FBI in 2016. His testimony could ruin Hillary. The coroner listed his time of death at around three AM, tomorrow." Argus Hamilton

Andrea Widburg  "Of the many positions Kash Patel held during Trump's presidency, his most important was as an aide to Devin Nunes when the latter worked doggedly to reveal that the Democrats' Russiagate charges were a hoax coming from the Democrat party — specifically, from Hillary Clinton's campaign.  Given Patel's insider's knowledge of events, it means something when he appears on Maria Bartiromo's Fox show on Sunday mornings and says he believes that Special Prosecutor John Durham is on the verge of issuing some serious indictments against big players in the Russia hoax.

"Patel's predictions about Durham are the first thing that Bartiromo elicits from him during the interview:"


"RealClearPolitics has helpfully provided a transcript of the interview:

MARIA BARTIROMO: When do you believe the FBI figured out that all of this was just one political campaign trying to take down another?

KASH PATEL: I think they knew right away." . . .

To Save America, Durham Must Reveal the Whole Russiagate Story and Punish the Guilty    "A bit more information has emerged from the John Durham investigation into Russiagate (or “Spygate,”as it is known hereabouts).

"This is due to what is likely a leak from one or more of the targets to their loyal propagandists at CNN. (In the article, the reporters do their best to downgrade the scandal they fanned for years as no more than a trivial “dirty trick” that all campaigns do. There’s a well-known word for that adapted into the English language.)

"The import of these leaks is usually to soften the impact on the target(s), but it also gives us another indication Durham is still active.". . . 

. . . "The other Clinton campaign lawyer, Michael Sussman, has already been charged with lying to the FBI on the matter of alleged Trump links to the Russian Alpha Bank, ties that turned out to be non-existent.". . . 

John Durham Dissects a Smear Campaign  "This is the third in a series of articles analyzing the 27-page federal grand jury indictment charging lawyer Michael Sussmann with making a false statement to the FBI. The second article analyzed the indictment’s detailed factual averments that spelled out how Sussmann and others conspired to concoct a false but “plausible” narrative purportedly demonstrating the existence of a secret channel of internet communications between the Trump Organization, owned by Donald Trump, and the Russian Alfa Bank. The article ended at the point where Sussmann was about to meet with James Baker, the general counsel of the FBI.". . .

Pelosi's Little Big Horn

Don Surber

I blame Afghanistan. Biden's sudden, confused, and disorderly flee from Kabul showed he is old, incompetent, and out of touch.


"Democrats have discovered something worse than having a septuagenarian as president: having an octogenarian as House speaker.

"Nancy Pelosi just suffered a week from hell. (Unkind people would say a taste of her future.)

"First, Joe Manchin stopped if only temporarily her party's Only Fans donors spendathon. In response, the AOC (Already Openly Communist) Crowd stopped the bipartisan Only Everyone's Donors spendathon.

"Business Insider reported, "House Speaker Nancy Pelosi on Thursday pulled a vote on President Joe Biden's $550 billion infrastructure bill. It's a major setback for Democrats as moderate and progressive feuds deepened over Biden's domestic agenda.". . . 

Habitual Liar Joe Biden Confronts the Winds of Truth

Joe's lying is said to be "habitual". Hillary's was called "congenital". They are Democrats so either is operative. TD

The explosion of knowledge and of freedom in modern times has made the world immensely more complicated than the world our grandparents knew. Yet for liberty to be for all and not just the few, the commitment to knowledge and truth for all is of first importance.

The American Spectator  "In the way that the last president was enamored of hyperbole and name-calling, the current president is enamored of outright lies. The $3.5 trillion “infrastructure” bill won’t cost anything; the generals all agreed with his assessment of Afghanistan; no American will be left behind; the exit from Afghanistan was a great triumph; as well as the many false assertions he has made about his own life that cross into the bizarre.

"Lying by American politicians is not something new. It was said by White House reporters of that day that when Lyndon Johnson lied, he gave it away by a motion of his body. No, it wasn’t pulling his ear that indicated a lie was to follow, nor was it the blink of his eyes. The telltale sign, they said, was when his jaws moved.

"But there is a major difference between LBJ’s ’60s and now. The institutions of home and of faith were still overwhelmingly strong back then. There was a robust consensus of what was decent civil behavior that covered the vast majority of Americans, whether conservative, moderate, or liberal. When the government’s lies began to be exposed during the grind of war and social upheaval, there was a powerful wave of revulsion that would sweep Johnson out of office, radicalize the Democrats, and see the end of the era of consensus, civility, and shared national purpose that had seemed so powerful after our victory over fascism in World War II.

"Lying shows the contempt or the fear a politician has of his constituents. Contempt, because he believes his audience is gullible enough to believe him; and fear because he believes that he could not have the power and influence he wants honestly.

"So many of the fundamentals of Western democracy are based on the biblical tradition. Ancient nations had their priesthoods and god-rulers, whose power was all the evidence needed that they were divine and their power legitimate. Knowledge was tightly controlled. Hieroglyphics and pictographs could only be mastered by an elite few. Literacy and knowledge were dangerous, for if everyone could know truth, the elites would lose their monopoly and wealth and influence would have to be worked for much harder.". . . 



Every morning we must dread what Democrats will do to us next

REPORT: Democrat Infrastructure Bill Contains Pilot Plan To Tax People Per Mile Driven   "Do you like the idea of being taxed for every mile you drive? Democrats do.

"Buried in their massive infrastructure bill is a pilot for just such a plan. Think of it as a dry run.

"This idea has two benefits, as Democrats see it. First, they get a new source of tax revenue. Second, they discourage people from driving their own cars, which helps fight climate change. This is actually the way they think.

"The Daily Mail reported:

"Pilot plan to tax drivers per MILE hidden in Biden’s $1.2 trillion deal

"American drivers could soon trade paying taxes on gas at the pump for owing the government annual ‘per-mile user fees,’ under a new pilot program recently passed by the Senate in Joe Biden’s $1.2 trillion bipartisan infrastructure deal.". . . 

Immigration officials worried about "catastrophic surge" if Trump-era policy is lifted 

As opposed to what they have done already

. . . "According to Politico, DHS is able to deport migrants much more quickly under this rule, citing the COVID-19 pandemic as the reason.". . .

Gender Ideology Run Amok ... "
How did we get to this point? How is it that we are all supposed to pretend that the only way you can know I’m a woman is if I tell you my pronouns? How did we get to an America in which a 13-year-old in the State of Washington can begin “gender affirming” therapy without her parents’ consent? How did we get to an America in which a 15-year-old in Oregon can undergo “top surgery”—elective double mastectomy—without her parents’ permission? And what can we do about it?"...
I’ve spoken to families at top girls’ schools who attest that 15, 20, or in one case 30 percent of the girls in their daughter’s seventh grade class identify as trans. When you see figures like that, you’re witnessing a social contagion in action. There is no other reasonable explanation.
