IMPEACHMENT 2.0: When you put clowns in charge, you’re gonna have a clown show.

REMIND ME TO SKIP BOTH BUDWEISER AND THE STUPID SUPER BOWL: Budweiser skips Super Bowl ad to focus on pandemic.

I don't support pandering or virtue-signaling.

FIRE THEM ALL; NEVER LET THEM 'TEACH' AGAIN: Thousands of teachers in 3rd largest U.S. school district refuse return to class.

Their students will be better off.

BIDEN'S PRESIDENT; WE DON'T NEED TO SCARE PEOPLE ANY MORE: World Health Organization revises PCR tests after current method yielded too many “false positives”.

Now we can go back to killing people quietly....

SEEN ON THE INTERNET: a description of the President and Vice President as 'Pee Pad' and 'Knee Pad'. Harsh -- but 'heh'.

IT'S OKAY NOW THAT BIDEN HAS BEEN INAUGURATED: Shutdowns kill.

ONLY THOSE WHO CAN AFFORD TO VIRTUE SIGNAL: Who likes shutdowns?

And obviously the totalitarian kakistocrats and their associated mandarins....

MALLARD FILLMORE got two out of three right.

MY APOLOGIES TO ALL: For several weeks now I've been wondering why the DiploMad 2.0 has gone silent, especially given the plethora of insanity at the moment. Well, I found out -- the bookmark I use on my laptop was locked into 2020. Here is what you've missed the past 24 days:

On January 1st, the DiploMad writes on Brexit.

On January 5th, will the fraud succeed? It did.

On January 6th, the DiploMad reacts to the Capitol 'riot'. I tend to agree with his assessment that there is something happening 'out there'.

On January 10th, "It is now Orwell's 1984."

On January 11th, an oopsie. A good one.

On January 13th, the Diplomad proposed boycotting the inauguration. He succeeded -- and by the way, read the comments.

On January 16th, waiting for a Ceausescu moment?

And that brings us up-to-date. Again, apologies.

BUT, BUT ... THEY'RE DEPLORABLE JOBS: How many more thousands of jobs will Joe kill?

DILBERT: Our governing class in a nutshell.

'Nut' as in what's inside an insane asylum....

7,000 NATIONAL GUARD WILL STAY IN WASHINGTON DC UNTIL MARCH due to 'threat of right-wing extremism'.

I don't think so. The governors of New Hampshire, Florida, Texas and Montana issued announcements Thursday and Friday calling for the return of National Guard troops to their homes.

Now Utah as well.

It's interesting that it's sometimes easier to find accurate U.S. news in the Daily Mail or the Guardian, both reliably liberal UK news sources.

DEMOCRATS MAKE FEDERAL ELECTION STANDARDS a top priority.

Democrats, asserting constitutional authority to set the time, place, and manner of federal elections, want national rules they say would make voting more uniform, accessible, and fair across the nation. The bill would mandate early voting, same-day registration, and other long-sought reforms some critics reject as federal overreach.

The legislation first introduced two years ago, known as the For the People Act, also would give independent commissions the job of drawing congressional districts, require political groups to disclose high-dollar donors, create reporting requirements for online political ads and, in a rearview rebuke of Trump, obligate presidents to disclose their tax returns.

It will be known as the Cementing Our Majority Forever Act.

THAT'S WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOU VOTE AGAINST THE EMPEROR:

Nebraska governor: Keystone XL Pipeline cancellation is a horrible decision.

Sen. Mike Rounds [R-SD]: Keystone XL Pipeline cancellation will ‘dramatically’ impact South Dakota and neighboring states.

Payback.

GOP REPRESENTATIVE WHO OFFERED TO WORK WITH BIDEN says call for unity 'not off to a great start'.

Get it through your thick (numb)skull: they hate us. And they intend to act on it.

GOODBYE TACOMA: Aero Precision moves out in response to gun and ammo tax. It's increasingly obvious that the only way to get the Left's attention is a swift -- and very public -- kick in the wallet.

WELL, YOU VOTED FOR HIM: Biden's pause on oil cause for big concern in New Mexico.

Cause, meet effect.

SO IS BIDEN GOING TO DEMAND FEWER VACCINATIONS TO ENSURE HIS RECORD STANDS? Daily average of '100 million vaccines in 100 days' topped repeatedly under Trump.

A POINT WELL MADE: "Only when all Trump-hate opportunities have been exhausted will they [Democrats] turn to the more difficult business of governing."

The 'Pseudodent' has no clothes either....

FROM REAL TO COMPUTER-GENERATED IMAGERY (CGI): From Trump to Biden.

I one-upped (or is it one-downed?) the DiploMad.

I went from flying the Gadsden flag to flying the Jolly Roger (with the appropriate tagline -- see profile above).
