At some point, I'll get tired of the left's tears flowing like the Rainforest's Amazon River President Joe Biden disappeared into yesterday after another lackluster, irrelevant speech on climate change. But today is not that day. 

As President-Elect Donald Trump's government takes shape, the outrage from the left has been nothing short of entertaining to watch. You would have to believe at least some of regime media is going to have to get a grip on themselves and tone down their rhetoric in order to have even a modicum of access to the new administration in order to report on it. Joe Scarborough and Mika Brzezinski, the co-hosts of MSNBC's Morning Joe, after months of Trump-Hitler-Nazi-Brown Shirt-fascist talk, had a sit-down at Mar-A-Lago to open a dialogue...with Hitler. Did they offer an apology for gaslighting their audience for a year and a half? Of course not. But at least they recognized they lost and what the reality is going to be for the next few years. But they're really alone among the Manhattan-Beltway media thus far in taking that first step. Everyone else? It's still wall-to-wall copium. 

Yesterday, Donald Trump announced that Sean Duffy was his choice to replace the man who put the Pete into Peter Principle, Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg. It's another wonderful pick, and should result in an easy confirmation. And I have one piece of evidence to enter into the supporting my claim. 

Potential Trump picks for DOT: A reality TV star, a rail antagonist -- and a former Uber exec https://t.co/qimx4fqm5h

Yes, a reality TV star is how Politico refers to United States Representative Sean Duffy, who served nine years representing the people of Wisconsin's 7th District. Duffy chaired the House Government Oversight and Investigations Committee, served on Financial Services and also Insurance, Housing and Community Opportunity. 

After getting his law degree from The William Mitchell College of Law, Duffy served Ashland County, Wisconsin as their District Attorney. And for the last two years, he has co-hosted The Bottom Line, a finance and business program with Dagen McDowell on the Fox Business Network. He also appeared on MTV's The Real World for a couple seasons. That's the career brand takeaway onto which Politico latched.

Pete Buttigieg's prior government experience to lead the Department of Transportation was serving as the Mayor of South Bend, Indiana, the home of Notre Dame, and boasting a population of 103,000-plus. And the rap on him as mayor is he couldn't get potholes in the roads filled unless they happened to develop on streets in the neighborhood where he lived. Yet Politico is trying to lump Duffy on the pile of what they classify as unqualified picks by Donald Trump. It's beyond ridiculous. As Ryder Selmi from Beck and Stone, the big advertising agency, notes on X,

Sean Duffy has 9 children, and the logistics alone for getting them around makes him qualified for this post. https://t.co/InQm8lsHay

If this is the best opposition to Duffy's nomination the combined left - regime media and elected Democrats have to offer, expect a very early and easy confirmation. 

In Pennsylvania, their state Supreme Court in a 4-3 decision ruled again Monday that illegal votes in the contest for the Senate seat from the Keystone State are, checks notes, illegal and will not be counted, despite the rogue Butler County Board of Supervisors' defiant actions to the contrary. Governor Josh Shapiro, in a press release after the Court's decision, tried to split the baby in half in Solomonian fashion. Yes, the Court's ruling has to be followed immediately.

Any insinuation that our laws can be ignored or do not matter is irresponsible and does damage to faith in our electoral process. The rule of law matters in Pennsylvania. … It is critical for counties in both parties to respect it with both their rhetoric and their actions.

But he also tried to give cover for the wanton lawlessness of Butler County Supervisors as being too confused to know how to proceed.

As counties continued counting ballots from the 2024 general election and a mandatory statewide recount begins in the U.S. Senate race, they were confronted with a lack of legal clarity surrounding undated mail-in ballots that caused significant confusion and put counties in a challenging position...Given this lack of clarity, county officials in each of our 67 counties wee damned if they did and damned if they didn't - likely facing legal action no matter which decision they made on counting.

There really was no lack of clarity. Illegal ballots are, by definition, illegal ballots. If they're unsigned or undated, they don't count. That's what the law says, and that's how the courts have ruled. Yet the pirates on the Butler County Board of Supervisors, led by Diane Ellis-Marseglia, said this. 

Courts don't matter, people violate the law all the time so we can, too, is not confusion. It's malicious intent to defraud the county and the state and maybe steal a Senate seat. Shapiro should have given no quarter to election deniers. I thought that was what is required of our elected leaders in order to save muh democracy.

Donald Trump signaled yesterday that the U.S. Military would be tapped into service to assist incoming Border Czar Tom Homan in implementing the mass deportation program. Naturally, everyone on the left freaked out. Charges that Trump was going to use the military to deport U.S. citizens circulated wildly. On CNN, Scott Jennings took one iteration of that false allegation and swatted it down. 



Homan himself has said repeatedly what the priorities will be for him in his new portfolio come January 20th - Removing the violent criminal element of people here illegally, sealing the border once and for all, and saving the children trafficked here for all sorts of sexual deviancy. 

Yet there are still those voices on the left that will refuse to cooperate with this mission. Here's Arizona Governor Katie Hobbs on ABC News. 

She won't cooperate with deporting criminals in her state illegally. Fortunately, enforcing U.S. immigration law is what Homan cares about, and I don't think he's too worried about Katie Hobbs getting in his way. 

And finally, our Democratic River of Denial works further west to where it dumps into the San Francisco Bay, home of the soon-to-be deposed Kamala Harris. The Vice-President, who still has not earned one primary vote or one primary delegate in two presidential campaigns, is the frontrunner for 2028...by a lot.

I'm chalking this up to the election just having taken place. In a year, I'm fairly confident no one will remember Kamala Harris, and if they do, it won't be fondly. The chance that she's the nominee in 2028 is roughly Absolute Zero on the Kelvin scale. But trust me, I will be quite happy to be proven wrong. 

Remember that J.D. Vance-Kamala Harris debate we were all promised before Nancy Pelosi and the Democratic Party effectively wheeled Joe Biden into traffic? 2028 is coming, baby, and it could be epic. Sure, Ron DeSantis might have something to say about that in the Republican primary, or perhaps any of a number of people from a deep bench of contenders for the presidency. But let's face it. If Kamala Harris in four years is still the Democratic Party's best option, you actually might eventually become tired of all the winning, because there could be a decade of it or more to come.
