Obama awarded himself a medal yesterday. We know, we know, just when you had that doggone blood pressure under control, we go and post this. Sorry.

The jaw-dropping new soda tax in Philadelphia. Wherever Democrats are in charge, government is dysfunctional and intrusive.

5.99 10-pack of soda
3.04 New soda tax
0.72 Regular sales tax
9.75 Total due

U.N. Human Rights Council members for 2017: Saudi Arabia, Venezuela, China, Cuba, Iraq, Qatar, Burundi, Bangladesh, and United Arab Emirates. Lots of human rights “expertise” in that crowd, eh?

Hannity interview: Julian Assange says Obama lying about Russians. WikiLeaks did not get the DNC emails from the Russians–he said it before, he’s saying it again.

Former CEO of Clinton Foundation has been missing since October. Another loose thread murdered by the Clinton Crime Family, or does the FBI have him in protective custody?

U.S. has no aircraft carrier at sea for first time since WWII. Look what Obama has done to the world’s only superpower.

Painting which depicts police officers as pigs now hanging in U.S. Capitol. Brought to you by a Democrat congresscritter, of course, the “artwork” is hanging just 25 yards from where Capitol Hill police officers are screening people through metal detectors.

Slate worries about self-driving cars causing an organ shortage. Because, you see, fewer traffic accidents will mean fewer deaths which will mean fewer organ donations. Big problem if you think like a liberal.

Democrat caught fondling helpless 103-year-old nursing home resident. And if that’s not weird enough, the old lady is his mother-in-law.

Poetic justice for singers who rejected invitations to sing at Inauguration. Jackie Evancho, the 16-year-old who accepted Trump’s invitation, has seen her album sales skyrocket. In fact, her Christmas album was selling so fast stores had to keep re-ordering.

California man facing DUI charges for having caffeine in his system. Just when you think California can’t get any dumber…

Founder of Snopes allegedly embezzled money to spend on prostitutes. Then he married a porn star and hired her as a Snopes administrator.

Pope Francis knew about pedophile priest in Argentina and did nothing. The priest liked working at Catholic schools for the deaf because when he raped the little kids, classmates couldn’t hear the screams. When he got caught doing this in Italy, church hierarchy transferred him to a school for the deaf in Argentina. In 2014, his Italian victims wrote directly to Pope Francis, telling him what the man had done and that he was now in the Pope’s native country. The Pope did nothing.

Gun control movie bombs at box office. Miss Sloane, starring Jessica Chastain, follows the exciting adventures of a Washington lobbyist working with the Brady Campaign to Prevent Gun Violence to get gun control legislation pass… oops, sorry, fell asleep writing that sentence. Where was I?

Three state election agencies confirm cyber attacks from DHS. So wait a minute, how is this not a bigger story than a bunch of conjecture with no consensus about Russians hacking the DNC? Apparently, during the 2016 presidential election campaign, the federal government was attempting to hack state election agencies.

Is National Geographic participating in child abuse? There is a photograph of a 9-year-old boy who thinks he wants to be a girl, and dresses like a girl, whose parents are allowing him to “transition” into being a girl, on the cover of the January 2017 issue. If LEOs found that same photo on your computer…

Elector refusing to vote for Trump is as phony as a three-dollar bill. No, he wasn’t a 9/11 first responder. And no, he doesn’t work for either of the two companies he claims to be working for. He’s been in bankruptcy for the last five years and as far as we know he’s unemployed. All of which raises the question: who picks these electors?

New York Times vacating eight floors of New York Times Building. Business is that bad, apparently. Hey, if you publish dishonest trash, don’t expect people to buy it.

Whoopi Goldberg compares celebrating Christmas to getting an abortion. Because yeah, obviously those two things are the same, right? And abortion is like playing with a puppy, too, and hugging your grandmother, and praying, and… well, basically, whatever today’s random firing of neurons in Whoopi’s malfunctioning brain decides, abortion is just like that.

Venezuela voids nearly half of its outstanding currency. What’s that? You spent two weeks saving up a wheelbarrow full of 100-bolivar notes to buy a loaf of bread? Sorry, Charley, those are illegal now.

Federal judge says Jill Stein “borders on the irrational.” He rejected her request for a recount in Pennsylvania, saying there were at least six grounds that required him to reject the Green Party’s lawsuit.

The real story behind that $4 billion Air Force One contract. The need for a new presidential airplane is being used by Obama as an excuse to pour money into clean energy research. Apparently, the current president wants future presidents flying around with all the accoutrements of the White House, but powered by unicorn farts, windmills, and corn oil.

Fun fact: In Germany, 75% of Algerian immigrants are suspects in sexual assault cases.

Communist Pope Francis expects priests to preach Global Warming. Faith in Global Warming supplants faith in Jesus Christ.

First offshore wind turbine in U.S. breaks before it even starts. The company suspects “the turbine’s generator was damaged by a drill bit accidentally left inside.”
