I hope everyone had a nice Christmas. I certainly did. You may have noticed, I took the day off. (You may not have noticed, as well.) I didn’t get what I want. He’s still infesting the White House. Other than that, though, it was a pretty good day…

It’s one thing, I imagine, for Donny to run around messing with average Americans. Generally speaking, we don’t have the ability to defend ourselves and Donny loves to pick on people who can’t defend themselves. But what happens when the demons he wrestles start causing him to pick on people who DO have the ability to defend themselves? That is, people with money.
Well, I think we’re all about to find out. He’s SUCH a deranged dumbass, he got angry at Scotland for putting up a few windmills in the sea that can be seen from one hole of one of his golf courses. He fought them at the time. He lost. He ALWAYS loses fair fights. That’s why he cheats so much. From there, the anger festered and grew. Now the guy has decided that climate change is a hoax and he has it in for any and all forms of renewables. Bring on the horrible fossil fuels we no longer need and should be moving away from.
In keeping with his backward, deranged “thinking,” he attacked five wind farms being built offshore along the east coast. Two are in New York, one is in Massachusetts, one spans Rhode Island and Connecticut, and one is in Virginia. Collectively, the projects cost $25 billion dollars. They provide power for 2.5 million homes. These five projects represent only a tiny fraction of all wind farms, but also represent 100% of off-shore projects being built today.
He tried one of his stupid Executive Orders but a judge struck it down. While all of THAT legal wrangling was taking place, according to the corporations developing the project, they lost somewhere between $15 million and $50 million dollars every week. You know what corporations love? Losing money – especially when it’s for no good reason and only to placate a moron.
So, on Monday, Dec 22, the Interior Department announced they were suspending the leases for the wind farms. Why? Get this: national security concerns! As always, the exact opposite of reality. The administration pretends the blade movement, combined with the towers’ reflective nature, can create radar interference, making it more difficult to identify legitimate targets. No word on why he dropped the bird slaughter and confused whales line. No, now it’s national security. True national security would be breaking our national dependence on oil, but one can’t explain reality to crazy people.
So, no, it’s not a matter of national security. What it is is, a multi-billion dollar project being undertaken by corporations large enough and wealthy enough to build a multi-billion dollar project. It’s possible – likely, even – that Felon 47 is simply angling for a payday. No one gets to do anything unless he gets his beak a little wet, you know? But I suspect deranged neuroses.
I say again, it’s one thing to attack defenseless people. This is an attack on the very wealthy people he usually tries to take such care of. They have resources. In order to protect their investment, they’ll have little choice but to use some of those resources to try to overcome the deranged delusions of a powerful but tiny, tiny little man…

Jim Beam, yes, the whiskey company, is suspending operations at it’s flagship distillery in Kentucky for a year. Apparently, there’s a whiskey oversupply. Some of that, for sure, is down to this recent trend in which people are drinking less alcohol. Much of that, for sure, is down to Donny’s tariffs. Canada got angry at the dotard over his stupid and unnecessary tariffs and pulled all American whiskey from their shelves.
Think of the Jim Beam distillery as a canary in a coal mine. I presume it’s not a large operation, employing thousands. Still, it employs plenty of people who now have to find other work. It’s just a single example of how he’s wiping away people’s jobs with his feckless mismanagement. But it’s only one example. This kind of damage is happening from sea to shining sea as he primps and prances over his new ballroom and works, tirelessly, to slap his name anywhere and everywhere it doesn’t belong…

Hey, I hear the GDP is up! Can you believe that? I mean, DO you believe that? It’s okay. Some people never learn. Really, haven’t you noticed how 47 reacts to bad news? He fires the person who reported the bad news, promising to fire the next person if they report bad news, too. Haven’t you noticed how he inflates and exaggerates numbers? If he really brought down prescription prices 800%, 900%, in some case 1,500%, drug manufacturers would be paying US to take their drugs.
No, Donny lies about performance. He just does. If you want to go ahead and invest YOUR money based on nothing but government reports, you have at it. It’s your money and you’re free to burn it however you like. But it only leaves me wondering just how bad the actual GDP numbers must be for Team Evil to be making up these glowing replacements…

I wrote at the outset that I hope you had a nice Christmas and I meant it. I genuinely hope you did. At least one person seems to have been a bit lonely over Christmas, our inglorious misleader, Donny the Doofus. He spent Christmas rage-tweeting. Apparently, he posted over 200 long and rambling, furious rants. It made him seem lonely, but in his case, I could be wrong. He seems to love raging at his demons so maybe he was having a wonderful Christmas, tossing childish abuse at all of his perceived enemies, like any 8-year-old might.
He declared himself awesome (I mean, obs). He posted hate-filled screeds against anybody he perceives may have tried to hurt him. He declared himself awesome again. He pretended his Epstein problem is a Democrat hoax AND pretended he wants all the files released to embarrass the Democrats. (No word on why the Democrats would perpetuate a hoax intended to smear themselves.) He pretended he has solved all of our problems – he hasn’t – and declared himself awesome one more time.
He attacked Obama, who was, likely, spending Christmas with loved ones. Donny doesn’t know what “loved ones” means. He attacked Biden because he always attacks Biden. It’s the worst case of BBS (Blame Biden Syndrome) I’ve ever seen. He attacked a re-run of Stephen Colbert’s show, fercrissakes. Spewing anger, spewing hatred, spewing vitriol, spewing conspiracy theories, spewing and spewing and spewing. Bah! Humbug!
I’ll tell you this: I’ve never, ever known anybody who better needed to be visited by three ghosts…
