Posted by Maggie on  in From the editors

The official countdown to the Christmas bacchanalia, generally and typically done amid family, friends and the occasional ‘latest squeeze’ of one or more of them. And then there is the jamming of various high calorie foods and alcoholic beverages.

So, it’s five more wake-ups `til Christmas morning, folks!

Pro-tip, the stores are going to be really realz these next several days. I’m just sayin’, umm-hmm…

We wish you a Merry China Plague.
We wish you a Merry China Plague.
We WISH YOU> a Mery China Plague,
And a Happy New Variant!

The (Occasional) Daily Zuby:

“You used up all the glue on purpose! ,,, NADDAFINGA!!”:

Chad Pergram: The Democrats’ Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day: Democrats may be looking at a terrible, horrible, no good, very bad year in 2022

Tom Howell, Jr: Schumer vows Build Back Better votes in the new year, wants to put senators on the record: Floats nuclear option for passing a voting overhaul

Edmund DeMarche: WE’LL BE BACK! Pelosi reveals possible New Year’s resolution after Manchin torpedoes Biden’s massive spending spree: Pelosi eyes vote early next year after Manchin’s major blow to Build Back Better – House Speaker Nancy Pelosi called the developments on Sunday ‘disappointing’

Vivek Saxena: ‘Complete bullsh*t’: Squad raging mad, WH in denial after Manchin says he’s a ‘no’ on Build Back Better

Twitchy: Politico journo on Joe Manchin scuttling BBB: ‘it’s just objectively devastating for the planet’ … Hot takes gonna be hot takin’, y’all.

Stephen Kruiser: The Morning Briefing: Manchin Exposes Dems’ Ignorance of Flyover America … Well, let’s not forget they’re of the mind-set that those people are insignificant and expendable anyway.

The Made in China Plague Gift that Keeps on Giving:

Matt Margolis: Fauci: From Face Masks ‘Not Really Effective’ to Face Masks Forever?

Tech-Gate: Fauci floats MORE COVID restrictions but says Christmas parties CAN go ahead – for now: COVID adviser insists vaccinated and boosted should ‘feel comfortable’ at gatherings but U.S. may need to be ‘more restrictive’ if cases keep climbing

Independent: Christmas travel will spread Omicron and it is already poised to become dominant in US, Fauci says

Brandon Gillespie: White House ripped for doomsday winter message of ‘severe illness and death’ for unvaccinated people: ‘He’s not the president. He’s the Angel of Death’

Twitchy: ‘You are looking at a winter of DEATH!’ Christina Pushaw perfectly MOCKS Biden’s upcoming ‘uplifting holiday message’ to unvaccinated Americans

Tim Haines: Neil Oliver: We Now Know Government Leaders And Media Fear-Mongers Were Never Really, Personally, Afraid Of Covid-19

Twitchy: Karol Markowicz and Charles C.W. Cooke drop Chris Cillizza on his head over his new Covid revelation

Matt Margolis: Fauci Orchestrated ‘Quick and Devastating’ Takedown of Anti-Lockdown Experts

Twitchy: BOMBSHELL thread shares damning Fauci/Collins emails working with media to take down ‘Great Barrington Declaration’ and ‘fringe scientists behind it’

Celebs coming out of the termite-infested woodwork to help stab the vax into the collective arms of pop culture infected masses…

Twitchy: Joe Biden and the Jonas Brothers get called out for using a meme that mocks a homeless man to push vaccinations

Jim Hoft: German Health Minister Lauterbach Calls for Mandatory Vaccination of the Population ASAP … How deliciously Hitlerian of him, eh?

I’m telling you, if/when this whole COVID thing is ever busted wide open we will find that the vaccines and the boosters were part of the bio-weapon experiment … hence the intentional lack of aggressive ‘out0of-the-box’ therapeutics to actually treat sick patients and save their suffering, longterm health damage, and lives.

Yael Halon: Outgoing NIH director dismisses Wuhan coronavirus lab-leak theory as a ‘distraction’ on last day in office: New polls finds 72% of Americans believe COVID-19 originated in Wuhan lab … Uh-huh, except that there is a report of Wuhan lab workers showing up very sick at local hospital over two years ago (November 2019) shortly before the major outbreak in the area. If there’s anything a majority of us have developed a very strong natural immunity to over these last two years it’s ‘short term memory loss’ of just about everything that has been said, done/not done, and by whom and when.

Tim Hains: See It To Believe It: NIH Director Dr. Francis Collins Sings “Somewhere Past The Pandemic”

And here we go, folks…

Jon Brown: Swedish company showcases microchip that can download COVID-19 passport status: Firm has showcased implant capable of storing COVID passport that can be read by many devices

Ed Driscoll @ Instapundit:

ROGER SIMON: So You Wanna Move (to a Red State)?

Who wants to sing “New York, New York” or “I Love L. A.” anymore? And can you imagine leaving your heart in San Francisco? What has happened is a true American tragedy—and it’s not just because of COVID, although that helped. The cancer has been growing for a long time.

It could be said you should stay to help resuscitate these cities although I would argue you do more for them by leaving, making those governing the cities—universally Democrats, as everybody knows—and even more those dopey enough to have voted for that governance, wake up.

And yet… and yet… and yet… moving is not easy. And I’m not just talking about the onerous task of packing up years of possessions and trucking them cross country. That’s bad enough, though transitory.

You carry yourself, your quirks and neuroses, with you wherever you go from Knoxville to Kuala Lumpur and you don’t know exactly the extent of that until you are forced, or force yourself, to change years of habit.

Just as much, the places you are going have their own quirks and neuroses, their own patterns, also established for years. Where do you fit in?

Moving from a blue state to a red state is not an instant transformation yielding spiritual and political liberation. There is work to be done—on yourself and on the locale itself.

I can speak most accurately about what it means to move to the Nashville area but I would imagine it’s a paradigm for some other migrations.

In itself Metro Nashville, as they call it, embodies the culture clash we are seeing across America. Nashville the city, contiguous with Davidson County, is decidedly blue, while neighboring Williamson County, really part of the metropolitan area—I described it earlier as “Republican Heaven”—is red, although problems exist there as well, especially in their supposedly vaunted schools. The state is, of course, quite red.

People and businesses are pouring into the area in droves. An article just the other day in the liberal San Francisco Chronicle —‘What Austin felt like 10 years ago’: Is Nashville the next hot spot in the Bay Area exodus?—gives some idea of what is happening.

How’s that Welcome Wagon program coming along?
