Comcast announced that it will “spinoff” its cable networks including MSNBC, CNBC, E!, Syfy, Golf Channel, Oxygen and USA. Does that mean dump them? Sort of.

NBCUniversal will no longer be the parent company of these networks and they will be on their own under a new company called SpinCo. This naming is probably not wise given that people can see the obvious biased “spin” that NBC’s cable news networks have been guilty of. They have literally spun themselves into a ratings abyss so do you really want to draw attention to that?

Comcast will keep the broadcast network NBC, streaming network Peacock and the reality network Bravo.

MSNBC stars are reportedly freaking out about this because it removes their access to NBC News reporting and money and pushes them lower on the pecking order of old world media. They worried “about whether the network will need to change its name, logos and headquarters after reports surfaced that the new entity could be cut off from the reporting muscle of NBC News, sources said.” Their boss Mark Lazarus says that he wasn’t sure.

So MSNBC could just become…MS? And CNBC would be…C? Do you think it has something to do with their total self implosion due to utterly shit reporting since the pandemic?

Bill O’Reilly says that this means that MSNBC “is vapor” without NBC News but NBC News has to do this because MSNBC is dragging down NBC News properties like The Today Show. He predicts that this is a death knell of MSNBC and possibly CNBC too.

The House Ethics Committee on Wednesday declined to release its own report on Matt Gaetz, the Florida representative who has been picked to be the next Attorney General during the Trump administration.

Some committee members say that the report is “not done” but Politico reports that it is. The committee voted not to release it but Democratic Ranking Member Susan Wild says that the committee will meet again in December to vote again.

The report details allegations that Gaetz had sex with a 17-year-old girl and that he paid for sex with underage girls. The Department of Justice investigated this for three years and declined to prosecute, citing that they had a “lack of credible evidence.”

One of the primary witnesses was Joel Greenberg, who was convicted of child sex trafficking. Greenberg agreed to testify against Gaetz to reduce his sentence. However, Greenberg has a history of accusing other men of pedophilia, such as when he falsely accused a school teacher who was his political opponent. Also, the 17-year-old in question who allegedly had sex with Matt Gaetz actually did have a sexual relationship with Greenberg. There is also evidence that she lied about her age, presenting herself as 18 years old.

All of this is presumably why the DOJ declined to prosecute Gaetz. But could the House Ethics Committee have unturned something more that is incriminating? Possibly. It is also possible that they didn’t and that is why we haven’t been allowed to see it yet.

I’d say it is in our best interest to see this and all investigations about all elected representatives.

The International Criminal Court has issued an arrest warrant for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and former Israeli Defense Minister Yoav Gallant as well as for Hamas leader Mohammed Diab Ibrahim Al-Masri.

Two other Hamas leaders also had warrants but they have since been killed so the court withdrew the warrants. Mohammed Diab Ibrahim Al-Masri is also reportedly dead but the court says that they are “not in a position to determine whether Mr Deif has been killed or remains alive. Therefore, the Chamber issues the present warrant of arrest. The Prosecution also noted that it continues to investigate the crimes in the ongoing conflict and envisions that further applications for warrants of arrest will be submitted.”

Israel had rejected the initial warrants, arguing that the court had no authority but the court rejected their rejection. The arrest warrants for the Israeli officials are for crimes against the Palestinians in Gaza. The court insists that it has jurisdiction over Gaza and the West Bank.

Respected journalist Seymour Hersh reported on Wednesday that his sources on the ground in Gaza call what is happening “holocaust conditions.”

“We don’t use the word because it has a special place in the Western imagination and heart, but this is a holocaust in terms of collective punishment and dehumanization and the technical tools. But is it a holocaust eighty years later being done remotely and on people’s bodies. . . . A missile i dropped in a densely populated civilian area, tents mostly, and then you have drones coming in afterward to pick off people one by one. We didn’t have drones during World War II, but we do now, and the logic is pretty much the same.”

Hersh reports that Israel will have full control of the West Bank within two weeks.

Russia is threatening to attack a U.S. base in Poland with “advanced weapons.” These are the same weapons Russia used for the first time early this morning to strike targets in Ukraine with devastating precision. NATO has nothing that can stop them.

Is Poland next?

“Given the nature and level of threats posed by such Western military facilities, the missile defense base in Poland has long been added to the list of priority targets for potential destruction, which, if necessary, can be executed with a wide range of advanced weapons,” Russian Foreign Ministry spokesperson Maria Zakharova said.

This base was only opened last week and NATO claims that it “can intercept short- to intermediate-range ballistic missiles.”

Zakharova also said this: “This [base] aligns with the longstanding and destructive practice of advancing NATO’s military infrastructure closer to Russia’s borders. Such actions undermine strategic stability. Coupled with other harmful military-political and military-technical measures aimed at projecting US power thousands of kilometers from its own territory to exert pressure on Russia and other nuclear powers, this inevitably heightens strategic risks and, consequently, raises the overall level of nuclear danger.”

Russia has increased their threat level since Ukraine began firing long-range weapons into uncontested regions of Russia.

While Ukraine continues to escalate and put the rest of the world at risk, President Biden has moved to forgive $4.7 billion in U.S. loans to Ukraine. Senator Rand Paul attempted to block this move but his efforts were thwarted.

So the U.S. government will NOT get that money back as President Biden has repeatedly assured us. It will be absorbed into the national debt, which weakens the U.S. dollar even further.

Liberals who are upset at Elon Musk for not censoring X and endorsing Donald Trump have flocked to Bluesky. The social network’s CEO Jay Graber says that the site now has 20 million users and has gained over one million users per day since the election.

Blusky feels like X but it is far simpler. Do they do what liberals want Elon Musk to do and censor content? They do. Bluesky uses AI for automated moderation alongside human moderation. They are also working on a tattletale system called “community labeling” so users can help moderators “inform” their decisions.

It is a great place to find liberal jabber, that’s for sure. The media is calling this the “national digital divorce.”

Will liberals get tired of talking to themselves or will conservatives join the conversation and make it interesting? Who knows. The Babylon Bee poked fun of this “digital divorce” with this satire: “Experts Predict Every Liberal Will Soon Be On Own Individual Social Media Platform To Prevent Encountering Wrong Opinions.”

President-Elect Trump named new cabinet members this week. They include:

Linda McMahon as Secretary of Education. She was formerly the Administrator of the Small Business Administration and an executive at WWE. She is the wife of Vince McMahon. She is a proponent of school choice and parents’ rights, meaning that education decisions will be sent back to the states if she has anything to do with it.

Dr. Mehmet Oz as the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services Administrator. Yes, the TV Dr. Oz. He has been outspoken about America’s dependence on processed food and the biopharmaceutical industry. Will that be his platform for the only national healthcare system we’ve got?

Howard Lutnick as Secretary of Commerce. He is currently the CEO of Cantor Fitzgerald, a financial services company. The President-Elect says that he will lead his tariff and trade agenda, which President Trump said on the campaign trail will help reduce the federal government’s dependence on income taxes.

Matthew Whitaker, former acting Attorney General, as the Ambassador to NATO. The President-Elect says that he will “strengthen relationships with our NATO Allies, and stand firm in the face of threats to Peace and Stability – He will put AMERICA FIRST.” Is this an indication that NATO will no longer be setting U.S. foreign policy? I hope…

New York Prosecutor Alvin Bragg has agreed to delay the sentencing for President-Elect Trump in the Stormy Daniels hush money trial.

This doesn’t mean that the case was dismissed. The Trump team had asked to delay the sentencing which was supposed to be next week. Alvin Bragg’s team, the prosecution, say that they don’t oppose this.

The Trump team has argued for dismissal based on presidential immunity and Bragg’s filing says that he will oppose that. So he will keep fighting for a win in this case, but maybe with less wind at his back.

Unless Judge Marchan dismisses the case entirely, which he could do.

The President Elect’s team is arguing for dismissal based on presidential immunity but his 6th amendment rights were clearly violated during this trial and there is strong evidence of selective prosecution given that Hillary Clinton was not prosecuted for the same journal entry for the Steele Dossier. I would much rather those things be the grounds for dismissal. Does this mean that the rest of us have to run for president if we are politically prosecuted against our civil rights?

Ukraine followed up its long-range weapon attack on Russia on Wednesday, this time reportedly with weapons from the U.K. This follows attacks on Tuesday with U.S.-made ATACMS missiles.

On Tuesday, Ukraine attacked Russia’s Bryansk region. On Wednesday, they reportedly attacked the Kursk region. Neither of those places are near the contested region where the battle has been in Ukraine.

This means that Ukraine is not defending itself to regain territory. They are only instigating a global war because Russia has said that it considers an attack from Ukraine an attack from the West and will retaliate accordingly.

Who wants this war? No sane person living in a NATO country wants to fight Russia but guess what? Neither do Ukrainians. Gallup somehow surveyed Ukrainians and found that more of them want the war to end than want to keep fighting.

I thought the West “stood with Ukraine.” If they stand with Ukraine, they should honor their wishes for peace.

Here is another way that liberals are planning not to cooperate with the next Trump administration: a shopping strike.

One liberal user on X explained it this way: “Trump will not have a good economy because we don’t have to let him. I myself plan on paying my bills and saving every penny beyond that. I will not contribute to this economy in any other way.”

This person has pledged to stock up on clothes and food and not spend a single penny during the four years that Trump is in office. No buying clothes, no eating out, no paying for cable news, no movies, no sporting events, no new furniture or household appliances, no Christmas gifts for loved ones.

So now liberals are on sex strikes, hair strikes, and shopping strikes. The Party of Joy is sure showing how it’s done!

The U.S. is pushing for a ceasefire between Israel and Lebanon but Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said Monday that he is willing to agree to that on paper but will still “systematically carry out operations against Hezbollah’s attacks.”

That’s not really a ceasefire then, is it? 

The Prime Minister said this: “We will not allow Hezbollah to return to the state it was in on October 6, 2023.”

Israel has been targeting civilian neighborhoods in Beirut, killing at least five today and injuring 24.

The attacks in Gaza have also stepped up with over 100 people killed over the weekend and another 76 on Monday, according to reports.

Over the weekend, the Pope published excerpts from his book calling for an investigation into Israel for its actions in Gaza, writing this: “We should investigate carefully to assess whether this fits into the technical definition (of genocide) formulated by international jurists and organisations.”

A woman claims that she saw Florida Representative Matt Gaetz having sex with a 17-year-old minor at a drug-filled party in 2017. The woman’s lawyer says that she testified to the House Ethics Committee.

This is relevant as Gaetz will face opposition to his nomination as Attorney General under President Trump.

Gaetz has repeatedly said that he was set up by the Feds and denied the allegations. In fact, a man is in prison now for trying to extort Gaetz’ father for $25 million in exchange for a “guaranteed pardon” in relationship to the ongoing lawfare against Gaetz. He was investigated and never charged.

The House investigation began in June. A report was scheduled to be released this week but now that Gaetz has resigned from Congress after his AG nomination, that report may not be released. The committee will meet on Wednesday to discuss its release and possibly ask Congress to vote on releasing it to the public.

House Speaker Mike Johnson last week said that the panel should not release the report. I would like to see it, sure. It’s not a healthy cloud to have over the country’s top lawyer and if there is evidence that he was extorted, I want to see that too.

I also want to see the ethics reports on other congressional representatives. Marjorie Taylor Greene said this: “If we are going to release ethics reports and rip apart our own that Trump has appointed, then put it ALL out there for the American people to see. Yes.. all the ethics reports and claims including the one I filed all your sexual harassment and assault claims that were secretly settled paying off victims with tax payer money the entire Jeffrey Epstein files, tapes, recordings, witness interviews but not just those, there’s more, Epstein wasn’t/isn’t the only asset If we’re going to dance, let’s all dance in the sunlight.”

Agreed. Do it.

Ukraine fired long-range US-made ATACMS missiles at Russia’s Bryansk Region. That is nowhere near the contested region where the battle has been in Ukraine.

This comes after the Biden administration reportedly authorized Ukraine to attack Russia with long-range weapons, a move that President Biden repeatedly promised the American people he would NOT do.

Russia responded to that news by saying that they would enact an “appropriate” response. Russian President Putin said that the Biden administration was “continuing to stoke tension around this conflict.”

Russia claims that it intercepted all six ATACMS missiles.

Russia also updated its nuclear doctrine, as they have been promising to do in order to “adapt to new realities.” Kremlin spokesperson Dmitry Peskov explained it thus:

“What is the most striking example of the realities of the modern day? Authority in the White House, in the United States takes a decision to use their weapons, American-produced weapons, against the Russian Federation. We needed that update, we ensured this.”

The doctrine clarifies that nuclear weapons are a last resort but it clarifies that it “will view a non-nuclear country (Ukraine) supported by a nuclear power (the U.S.) as a joint attack” and will “consider a nuclear response to a conventional weapons attack threatening its sovereignty, a large-scale launch of enemy aircraft, missiles, and drones targeting Russian territory, their crossing of the Russian border, and an attack on its ally Belarus.”

Does the U.S. and NATO really want to test to see if they’re serious?

While Western leaders dance around the idea of war with Russia, they are also in the company of Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov at the G20 Summit in Brazil. Lavrov is participating in the international conference and “will address sessions on combating inequality, hunger, and poverty, as well as on the reform of global institutions.” He is also planning to “hold a series of bilateral talks on the sidelines of the event,” according to Russian Foreign Ministry Spokeswoman Maria Zakharova.

Disney has axed an animated episode about a transgender child who plays sports with a girls’ team. The show is called “Moon Girl and Devil Dinosaur.” An episode schedule for 2025 was to be called “The Gatekeeper” but Disney will not air it now.

The episode was about a transgender boy playing on the girls’ volleyball team and facing discrimination for it. One of the episode’s creators reportedly said this and then deleted it on the app Blue Sky:

“So guess I finally got hit with one of the projects (episode) I worked on is getting shelved because of which party that won the recent election. It breaks my heart knowing this impactful and amazing is now about to be consider a lost media episode.”

Is it because of the election or is it because a new report from the United Nations that showed that “over 600 female athletes in more than 400 competitions have lost more than 890 medals in 29 different sports” and maybe now the rest of us can see that this isn’t right, even Disney executives?

Disney is also facing calls to replace Rachel Zegler as Snow White in the upcoming feature film for saying that she wishes President-Elect Trump and his supporters “never know peace.” Disney fired “The Mandalorian” actress Gina Carano for expressing a conservative opinion but she did not wish harm on anyone. Imagine a Hollywood actor wishing harm on a Harris supporter.

Will Disney move forward with this obnoxious actress who hates 50.2% of the country? Back to the Future was re-shot with a new lead late in the game, although the movie previews had not been released. There’s a first for everything.

“Secret Trump voters” are outing themselves in the wake of President Trump’s victory. This refers to people who were sheepish to admit that they would vote for Trump are feeling emboldened to do so now.

And it’s a good thing too! In the run-up to the election, Democrats were threatening to out people who voted for Trump and…I don’t know what, harass and shame them? It’s best to out yourself than be hunted down and shamed, right?

Now MAGA hats are less taboo, as are MAHA hats and Axios reports that more Trump lawn signs went up AFTER the election than were up before. Plus, NFL players are doing the Trump dance in the end zone.

A pollster and strategist said this to Axios: “All of these undercover Trump people are out. People that would have hidden a week or so ago aren’t hiding anymore.”

Glass half-empty take: How sad that people felt that their fragile relationships could be tanked because of their politics.

Glass half-full take: Maybe the cancel culture is really over.

The Department of Defense put a “disclaimer of opinion” on its annual audit, trying to account for $824 billion. This means that they’re not sure where all of the money went and they won’t have clean books for at least another few years. Over $1 trillion in assets are unaccounted for and this is the seventh year in a row that the annual audit has failed to balance the books.

What if we presented the government with our tax returns like this? I think this is what I owe. I’ll give you a clear picture of my assets in four years. Deal with it. 

Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin said that the department “made real progress” and is “committed to achieving an unmodified (clean) financial statement audit opinion by the end of 2028.”

Auditing the DOD is undoubtedly a nightmare. They have to audit over 4,000 cites in over 160 countries but the department spent $1 billion to do it! They can’t get a good audit even by spending $1 billion?

Republican Congressman Tim Burchett says that the audit includes money for a “secret UFO program.”

Unnamed sources say that President Biden has given Ukraine authorization to use long-range weapons to strike Russia after promising the American people that he would never do that because it would lead to World War III.

Ukrainian President Zelensky said on X that this has not been approved but it is on his Christmas wish list and has been for over two years.

“One of its key elements is providing our army with long-range capabilities,” he wrote. “There’s been much said in the media today that we have received approval to take relative actions. But strikes are not carried out with words. These things are not announced. The missiles will speak for themselves.”

The New York Times reports that “allowing the Ukrainians to use the long-range missiles, known as the Army Tactical Missile Systems, or ATACMS, came in response to Russia’s surprise decision to bring North Korean troops into the fight, officials said.”

There has not yet been proof that North Korean troops are fighting for Ukraine and North Korea has denied it.

Why would the New York Times report this from unnamed sources? This would mean that the Biden administration wants an escalation of the war with Russia before the Trump administration could negotiate an end to the war. Suspicious, right?

The Los Angeles Times will replace its editorial staff because the paper’s owner realized that the one they’ve got is biased. The owner, Dr. Patrick Soon-Shiong said this about it:

“When the President has won the vote of the majority of Americans then ALL voices must be heard. Opinions are just that. I will work towards making our paper and media fair and balanced so that all voices are heard and we can respectfully exchange every American’s view ..from left to right to the center. Coming soon. A new Editorial Board. Trust in media is critical for a strong democracy.”

While most media is left wondering why their attacks on President-Elect Trump did not cost him the election, the LA Times is realizing that their bias is hurting, not helping. On the day after the election, Dr. Soon-Shiong said this: “The American people have spoken and @latimes will take the lead to provide factual and balanced coverage as the country heals its division.”

The CDC had a plan for Covid quarantine concentration camps. They never implemented them in the U.S. but the fact that there was a plan in place should give us pause.

ZeroHedge reports that the plan was live on the CDC website until March of 2023. The plans included isolation cells where inmates would be given “only food and some cleaning supplies. They would be banned from participating in any religious services. The plan included contingencies for preventing suicide. There were no provisions made for any legal appeals or even the right to legal counsel.”

This plan was written in mid-2020, a time when the data showed that Covid was only dangerous for high-risk individuals. This plan has no reference to that science.

ZeroHedge was not able to surmise who wrote this but we should absolutely want to know why the CDC was planning to put people in concentration camps with no legal resource, shouldn’t we?

President-Elect Trump’s cabinet appointments have felt like an NFL Draft this week. He sure is throwing curveballs!

The dreaded news came that indeed, Florida Senator Marco Rubio has been nominated to be Secretary of State. The same Marco Rubio who said that Russia blew up the Nord Stream Pipeline. God help us. I don’t know how that guy gets put in charge of diplomacy on behalf of US ALL. He talks a lot of bullshit on cable news but let’s hope he doesn’t pull that when meets Presidents Xi Xinping or Vladimir Putin.

A true wildcard was the appointment of Florida Representative Matt Gaetz as Attorney General. Gaetz is one of the only congressmen to try to force the U.S. to withdraw from its illegal occupation of Syria and Yemen. He has also been a vocal critic of the weaponization of the Justice Department, which he will now lead. He’s not a predictable politician by any means. President Trump says that Gaetz “will root out corruption at the DOJ, and return the Department to its true mission of fighting Crime.”

The President-Elect also nominated former Congresswoman and Lieutenant Colonel Tulsi Gabbard to serve as Director of National Intelligence. This one is a doozy. Gabbard herself was put on a watchlist for speaking out against the war in Ukraine and the Biden administration’s constant war escalation. Now she will be in charge of the people who put her on surveillance lists. Loving this!

It feels like the Wizard of Oz handing out the token items that each campaign loyalist earned on the trip to Oz. Robert F. Kennedy has yet to see his big prize but we are hoping it is head of the FDA, the Department of Health or the NIH! Do it!

Israel says that it plans to stay in Gaza at least through 2025 and has turned the Palestinian territory into a “very active construction site.”

Israeli paper Haaretz reports that Israel’s presence in Gaza is not just a military operation. It is a full-on development project, “whether it is talked about openly or not.”

“This isn’t a new public housing project, it’s a completely different type of project. Scenes similar to this one, near the Netzarim corridor, can be seen in additional places in the Gaza Strip. The development momentum is in full swing, and the goal – whether it is talked about openly or not – is clear: building the infrastructure for the military’s prolonged stay in the field, at least in the first stage.”

The report continues: 

“They say that some weeks ago, the IDF began “exposing large areas” in the Strip: in less military jargon, destroying existing buildings and infrastructure in such a way that dangers to the forces cannot hide in them, but no one can live in them either. This is in addition to the construction of roads and preparations for building more permanent military facilities.”

In other words, they are not just rooting out Hamas. They are actively taking over Gaza. Earlier this month, Israeli officials said that Israel had “no intention of allowing the residents of the northern Gaza Strip to return to their homes.”
