Bye bye 2025
When I look back, I see a cycle of upswing that began in July of 2024 with Trump’s near-miraculous survival of an assassination attempt and then his election, which continued in January of 2025 with his inauguration and his subsequent frenzy of activity to undo some of the worst policies of the Biden years.
But then in September of 2025 it seemed that a new cycle began with the assassination of Charlie Kirk. Those two assassination attempts – one failed and one horrifically successful – seem like bookends to me. Since September of 2025 the right has seen a slight fracturing that doesn’t bode well for the next election, and a rising general restlessness and dissatisfaction.
For me personally, this year has brought some very serious illnesses of friends and loved ones, and although most of those people are now holding their own, that aspect of things has been difficult and remains so.
On the other hand, I take tremendous joy in my grandchildren and am very grateful for their existence.
And I am very glad to have finally finished the Vanderleun poetry book. That certainly was a learning experience.
Let’s hear it for 2026. I wish health and happiness to you and your families and friends, and plenty of good things for this country and the world.
From my perspective, I can’t wait for this year to be over. However,
I wish you all the best for a great 2026
May 2026 be happy and healthy for you and yours. BTW, how is your ex doing?
Bye, bye, 2025 pie….
Let’s at least start 2026 with optimism! Happy New Year!
Drove my Chevy to the levy but the levy was dry…
Marisa:
Thanks for asking. He’s doing better than he was, but far from well. It’s hard.
Happy New Year, Mr. Smith …

There’s lots to document—since “Biden” pretty much gave Mr. Smith the keys to the kingdom before unleashing him on the man he was programmed to destroy—and she’s pretty thorough….
As the new year
easeskicks in, is anyone feeling transformational?“Obama’s Trojan Horse: How His Refugee Machine Engineered The Billion-Dollar Looting Of US Treasury”—

We may now begin to understand why Obama chose to build a massive, monstrous, butt-ugly defensive fortress in Chicago….
File under: Grifter’s last stand….
BJ, I thought of that, too, but wanted to make it say something about a Tesla. “Drove my Tesla to the outlet” doesn’t have any good follow-up that I could see, so I had to give up.
Philip, perhaps:
“Drove my Tesla to the charger; but the charger was fried!

Happy New Year!
