Sanity is Two Weeks Away, Trump’s Presidential Certification Is Today & DEI Should Die – Top 3 Takeaways – January 6th, 2025
- Sanity is two weeks away. Like a kid in the leadup to Christmas, I find myself counting down the days until the big day. That’s because I continue to pray that President Biden’s weakness on the world stage doesn’t land us in WWIII by that day, but also due to his seemingly daily mockery of the office of the presidency. This was most recently on display with Biden’s Presidential Medal of Freedom recipients. The most recent recipients of the highest civilian honor... A who’s who of questionable characters (Hillary Clinton, George Soros, Bill Nye “The Science Guy”) and people I’m pretty sure President Biden just wanted to meet like Michael J. Fox, Denzel Washington, Bono, Magic Johnson, the Editor-in-Chief of Vogue (I’m not kidding) and Lionel Messi...although Messi messed with Biden’s plans as he was a no-show for ceremony. Effectively, in true Biden fashion in which everything he touches seemingly turns to poo, the highest civilian honor has been cheapened to meaningless status too. There’s still a lot of damage that Dementia Joe can do in these final two weeks so I’ll continue to count down the days until sanity can be restored within the United States. And thankfully the final vote to...
- Restore sanity will take place today because on Friday we had pragmatism win the day. Unlike the disfunction of the previous Congress, which took three days and 15 votes to arrive at the obvious choice for House speaker two years ago, on Friday pragmatism did in fact win the day. In Friday’s takeaways I mentioned that... It’s time for pragmatism. That there’s only one way that Donald Trump wouldn’t be certified as president of the United States today and that’s if there wasn’t GOP unity in the House. As mentioned, the bottom line is that Trump won a commanding victory, the largest by a Republican since 1988 – when Ronald Reagan was still president and George H.W. Bush was able to ride his coattails. The job now is for elected Republicans to vote to Make America Great Again – and nobody knows better than Trump who it is he needs as House speaker to do it. That person is Mike Johnson. As Trump said on Monday: Speaker Mike Johnson is a good, hard working, religious man. He will do the right thing, and we will continue to WIN. Mike has my Complete & Total Endorsement. Therefore, he should have the complete and total support of the House Republican conference. Mike Johnson didn’t have the complete and total GOP support as Kentucky ideologue Thomas Massie attempted to create drama on Friday, but he did have the support of everyone but Massie in importantly winning on the first vote in a sign of GOP unity. For that reason, the joint session of Congress to certify President-elect Trump’s win will take place as scheduled at 1 today. Friday’s vote was the first major test of Trump’s incoming administration, and there’s no doubt that the only difference between the fiasco that played out two years ago, and a unity vote was Donald Trump’s full endorsement of Mike Johnson along with the fact that he’s the incoming president of the United States. In so many ways today is a remarkable day. With this afternoon’s vote Trump will have officially achieved the greatest comeback in American history. If we’re all having honest moments with ourselves, how many of us were thinking four years ago today that Trump would in fact be overwhelmingly elected to be the next president of the United States. That perspective in a nutshell is what separates Teflon Don from the rest of us. No matter how dire the circumstances, no matter how big the adversity, Donald Trump believes that in the end he will win. Whether we’re talking about the bankruptcy of his real-estate empire, failed marriages, political witch hunts leading to criminal charges and a conviction, or now once again winning the presidency with a much larger margin of victory than before...Donald Trump has the passion, the talent and the resolve to win like no one since our country’s founders. They’re they only political figures who’ve overcome more to achieve success for the American people. He always comes back to win in the end and the subsequent victories, a la the election outcome this time around, are always bigger than they were originally. It’s a great lesson of resilience and the remarkable opportunities for redemption our country provides. But alas there still is and will always be...
- Mayhem. And the irony is if Allstate had simply stayed with a message from Mayhem, aka Dean Winters, instead of their CEO heading into the Sugar Bowl – there would be far less of it surrounding the company today. But they didn’t and their woke CEO delivered a DEI-designed message effectively what, blaming the country for an Islamic terrorist attack in New Orleans? And what that woke messaging has done is open a can of worms, or perhaps better said – introduced mayhem around the company’s headquarters. As many have looked further into Allstate to see what really goes on culturally, people have found this...Allstate’s DEI director explicitly stating that Allstate’s hiring practices have been DEI-driven and thus discriminatory. Quoting her: “We set a goal last year to make sure we were hiring over the labor available market” for minorities. In other words, not only has Allstate been deliberately discriminatory with their hiring practices, but they’ve also gone out of their way to hire unqualified people who check boxes as opposed to say a white man who’s fully qualified. Part of restoring sanity in fourteen days is upholding the rule of law and thus putting an end to discriminatory practices like this. It is against the law to engage in discriminatory hiring practices and promotional practices. It’s also just plain wrong. Yet all companies and entities with DEI programs in place have been ironically discriminating against people in the name of “fairness”, that’s irony. DEI programs, along with all forms of discrimination, belong in the dust bin of history. That’s all part of what we’ll see soon with the restoration of sanity in this country.
