The Laughs Keep Coming Under the Fedora: Heretics on MSNBC! Reiner as Robespierre, Uygur v Lichtman, Disney Runs Away, Hostin Hostage Video

You would think that two weeks after Trump’s election and a full two months before his swearing in the left would have calmed down a bit.

You’d be wrong:

Calls for Morning Joe to be boycotted have come from Jen Rubin and Joe and Mika have been attacked by the left for daring to even speak to Trump

Of course if you don’t have all that many viewers will anyone notice if they leave?

And as Comcast is dumping the whole network will anyone care?

Rob Reiner is being attack on Bluesky for apparently not being loyal enough to the left reich.

Rob bleeping Reiner isn’t left enough for the left anymore.!

Did nobody teach these lefties that Robespierre was eventually killed by the mobs of the state that he led?

Piers Morgan had a boatload of leftists on his show to talk about the Trump win.

There is an interesting exchange between Cenk Uygur & Allan “My method assures me Kamala will win” Lichtman that’s getting a lot of views.

Lichtman is also leaving X doesn’t want to interact with those who disagree anymore I guess

They’re eventually going to run out of their own allies to eat but not yet.

Of course the best sign of the left falling apart are people with something to lose both running away from their agenda.

Disney has reportedly decided to shelve an episode of the children’s cartoon series Moon Girl and Devil Dinosaur, apparently over its plot concerning a transgender high school athlete.

And keeping their stars in line:

Just when maybe Disney thought they’d gotten a handle on their difficult production and its even more difficult star, Zegler went on a rant last week, wishing harm on Donald Trump supporters. “There is a deep sickness in this country,” she wrote on Instagram. “May Trump supporters and Trump voters and Trump himself never know peace.”

Then she quickly changed her tune again — likely after some stern words from Disney — claiming, “I would like to sincerely apologize for the election post I shared on my Instagram last week.”

“I let my emotions get the best of me,” she continued. “Hatred and anger have caused us to move further away from peace and understanding, and I am sorry I contributed to the negative discourse.”

When there is money at stake things change.

But the really funny thing of the week was this from the view after going after the Matt Gaetz nomination and Gaetz personally having to put out a disclaimer live on TV.

RedState nails it:

What’s so great about this is just how much Hostin clearly didn’t want to read it. Watch her facial expressions, which are not subtle in the slightest, and then listen to her struggle to make it through.

Never has a show host wanted to rip the heart out of their producer more than Hostin in that moment. Just before she starts reading the statement, she has some kind of spasm. From there, you can tell she’s doing everything she can to hold it together. Hostin did not want to offer that correction, but even overpaid elites have to play by the rules of the legal system. Well, at least sometimes.

Remember Trump won’t be President for another two months and no votes are going to take place on any of those guys before then. Everything you’re hearing now is just noise.

I’ve got principles, and if you don’t like them, well, I’ve got others

Groucho Marx

There are all kinds of niche markets in the world. We bloggers are a niche market, comic book people are a niche market, Doctor who fans are a niche market, Candle Pin bowlers are a niche market. Model Train people are a niche market. Baseball simulation gamers are a niche market Pinball is a niche market.

And if there is one thing that is true about a niche market is it’s this. Niche markets can only support so many people or producers. If the number of producers exceeds the market eventually they will disappear, even faster if the market contracts which often happens if there is a brief bubble of popularity.

The woke left is a niche market. It seemed larger because most normal people didn’t want to have to deal with that idiocy and found it easier to go along or ignore them. Because it was a loud niche market with some billionaires who had money to burn behind them, they seemed larger than they were but eventually you reach a point where the billionaires don’t want to fund it and the advertising people figure out there are too few eyeballs to be worth the money they are paying. It’s one think to be accepted at parties but the shareholders still want their return.

That’s why you see the retreat of DEI everywhere. Once people stood up to it people realized just how unpopular it was and it had the potential to cost them money companies ran from it like the plague.

And that brings us to Joe and Mika.

It’s quite possible that they actually believed that Trump was going to lose, and lose by a lot and thus continued to play to the niche market their network in general and their show in particular choose to embrace. Sure they and most of the left calling Donald Trump a Nazi had no problem with him for 60+ years but this was a matter of power for the left so after puffing him up in the primaries as a sacrificial lamb they dropped him like a rock when he became a threat to the niche they served.

And so for eight long year they made their living banging the “Trump is Evil” drum.

Then the bottom fell out of the market, the first sign was the Biden debate, the 2nd sign was the Kamala campaign and election day solidified it.

MSNBC kicked ass on rating on Election night because a lot of conservatives turned on the channel to watch them squirm, now that the election is over there simply is not enough of a niche market to keep them paid. So what do you do when you’re a couple in your Sixties and late fifties and the prospect of your television career is looking bad because your niche audience is going away?

Why you break out of that niche.

Yeah this move is going to upset Olberman and Jen Rubin and the Ladies on the view, but it has the potential to bring in eyeballs that normally might not give them a first look let alone a 2nd.

And there is of course always the potential of Trump calling in which would send rating and exposure through the roof.

Those two things may be enough for advertisers to decide to say put and the alternative of doing nothing is not likely to bring in the bucks. They saw the advertisers return to X they know where the dollars and eyeballs are so they are trying to do what is the primary job of TV personalities, attract eyeballs.

Jen, Keith and Jojo it’s not personal, it’s strictly business.

Oh and all that Trump stuff about being Hitler and a dictator?

Gaetz, Gabbard and Hegseth Oh My!

Get ’em skeered and keep the skeer on ’em

General Nathan Bedford Forest CSA

President Elect Donald Trump has come out of the gate with a bunch of nominations for various positions in the government.

A few have not been all that surprising but the three above have given the left the vapors.

And while all kinds of people are suggesting that these folks (particularly Gaetz) are not good picks and even some republicans in the Senate are (not on the record of course) suggesting they would not be approved let me point out one key thing.

The left/media are going absolutely apoplectic over them.

So if you are having doubts about Trumps picks (particularly the pick for AG) let me remind you of the wise words of the man who four years ago returned the talent he had on loan from God.

Rush Limbaugh: The left will always tell you who they fear!

And so does the deep state.

We get one shot to dismantle this stuff. In two years there will be another presidential campaign and Donald Trump will not be running. Cripes he’s old enough that he might not even last the four years until that comes. (yes I know he’s in excellent shape but I’ve outlived a bunch of my peers who were in far better shape than me) This being the case I suggest not quibbling over choices that he apparently has given a lot of thought to since he was ready to roll with them in less than a week and put all our energies into supporting those choices and letting them run wild.

Fear makes your enemies sloppy, fear makes your enemies careless. Fear makes your enemies try to make deals in your favor.

Let’s keep them afraid.

Cry Sessions at State! Really?

If you want to know why Trump won and increased his vote everywhere consider this:

The Biden-Harris State Department organized an in-house therapy session for employees early Friday following Donald Trump’s election victory, four sources with knowledge of the meeting told the Washington Free Beacon.

Remember these are the people who are supposed to be dealing with international problems and crisis.

One source described the meeting as a “cry session” over Trump’s victory, which is likely to usher in wholesale change at Foggy Bottom. Officials in the Bureau of Near Eastern Affairs have been working for months to sanction the Jewish government and withhold critical arms shipments, alleging Israel is not doing enough to provide humanitarian aid in the Hamas-controlled Gaza Strip. They are said to have discussed the difficulty of Trump’s victory and urged employees to share their feelings in private settings.

“For four years, within the rank and file, there has been an over emphasis on people’s feelings, often with a college campus-like fervor, rather than the work of advancing America’s interests,” one U.S. official with knowledge of the meetings told the Free Beacon.

If you’re wondering why our enemies around the world are suddenly coming into line since Trump was elected, it’s likely because they know these guys aren’t running the show anymore.
