Despite a difficult 2023, Trudeau says he's not ready to 'walk away' While it hasn't been a terrific year for the Liberal government, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau says he has no intention of stepping aside. Recent polls have placed the Liberals well behind the Conservatives in voter support. But Trudeau told CBC News chief political correspondent Rosemary Barton in a year-end interview that he's determined to stay on as Liberal leader. "With the challenges that people are facing right now, with the way the world is going now and everything that we are doing that's making positive differences in a very difficult time that isn't done yet, I wouldn't be the person I am and be willing to walk away from this right now," he said. https://www.cbc.ca/news/politics/trudeau-looks-back-2023-1.7068218 Trump shares Christmas message for opponents on Truth Social: 'May they rot in hell' In a departure from the familiar lines of the renowned 'Twas the Night Before Christmas poem, former President Donald Trump shared a new rendition of the "Merry Christmas to all, and to all a good night" line in a social media rant on his platform Truth Social. "Merry Christmas to all, including Crooked Joe Biden’s ONLY HOPE, Deranged Jack Smith, the out of control Lunatic who just hired outside attorneys, fresh from the SWAMP (unprecedented!), to help him with his poorly executed WITCH HUNT against ‘TRUMP’ and 'MAGA,'" he wrote on Christmas Day. https://www.foxnews.com/politics/trump-shares-christmas-message-opponents-truth-social-rant-may-they-rot-in-hell Pizza Hut to lay off more than 1,000 delivery drivers in California ahead of wage hike They’ve been making it great for 65 years. But some loyal customers say these new cuts are leaving them with a bad taste. “Now, we have to be our own delivery driver,” customer Rogelia Salinas said. She came to pick up pizza for her grandkids at a Pizza Hut in North Hollywood as the delivery wait was too long. But after learning some of the delivery drivers are being canceled altogether, she’s disappointed. “It’s sad. It’s very sad and disappointing that these big companies, you know, that our franchise is laying off the working middle-class people that are trying to survive,” Salinas said. https://www.1011now.com/2023/12/28/pizza-hut-lay-off-more-than-1000-delivery-drivers-california-ahead-wage-hike/ HELL YEAH!

Key among his achievements applauded by voters has been his boost in black and Hispanic employment and making the United States an energy exporter. In the latest Zogby Analytics poll shared with Secrets, several of the 319 achievements touted by the White House were tested, and in eight of 10, a plurality of voters said it would make their support “more likely.” https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/washington-secrets/trumps-accomplishments-319-so-far-drive-voters-to-support-him Joe Biden Has Spent 47 Years in Washington With Almost Nothing to Show For It Democrat nominee Joe Biden’s career has been well defined by his consistent betrayal of American workers in the name of globalism. Instead of putting America first, Biden spent almost half a century backing trade deals that decimated family-sustaining manufacturing jobs across the country. The truth is — a Biden-Harris Administration would be welcome news to Communist China. Just recently, the intelligence community released an election threat assessment saying, “we assess that China prefers that President Trump – whom Beijing sees as unpredi ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WokgplH2ydM

The Monroe County Sheriffs office said that more than 50 prisoners had been released from the Monroe County Jail Friday night through Saturday morning. Nine of those inmates are now staying at the Holiday Inn Express in Greece. Among the inmates known to be staying at the Holiday Inn Express are four registered sex offenders.

The objective of this analysis is to explore the relationship between uneven sex ratios in the population and violence. This analysis uses data collected from men in six Asian countries about their experiences and perpetration of violence.  We combine this with region- and age specific sex ratios calculated from Census data to explore the relationship between sex ratios and violence using multilevel models. We find that men from region-age brackets with higher ratios of men to women are significantly more likely to report ever having raped a woman, having perpetrated intimate partner violence, or having used a weapon. We find no evidence for an association between sex ratios and reports of ever having raped a man. https://journals.plos.org/plosone/article?id=10.1371/journal.pone.0197516 Adam Schiff: We ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UzEkUeTHnvU

Why Democracy Produces Incompetent Leaders – And How to Fix it Democracy doesn’t work. Plato thought it was a terrible system, a prelude to tyranny, giving power to selfish and dangerous demagogues. Watching what is happening these days in democracies around the world, it’s hard to disagree with Plato. Democracy appears to produce an abundance of incompetent and dishonest political leaders, who exploit people’s credulity and prejudices and thrive on emotion-driven discourse and fake news. This Impakter essay looks at the problems and proposes an easy fix – if only we had the courage to implement it. https://impakter.com/why-democracy-produces-incompetent-leaders-and-how-to-fix-it/ Incompetence of Trudeau Liberals is on full display The Trudeau Liberals appear to be trying hard to make themselves out to be the most incompetent government in Canadian history. It seems that this is a government where memos are drafted, reports are written and nobody in charge reads them or is briefed. https://torontosun.com/opinion/columnists/the-incompetence-of-the-trudeau-liberals-is-on-full-display Psychology Explains Why We Put Incompetent People In Power If you keep up with politics or the news, you will have seen this scene play out in those spheres or in your personal life: Someone who has little knowledge of a subject claims to know a lot about it. In fact, that person might be boasting about being an expert in this area. And yet their claims can be easily dismantled based upon how they answer next. That or who they are as a person makes it obvious they’re lying. There is a psychological phenomenon named after that called the Dunning-Kruger effect. It’s not a disease, syndrome or mental illness. It is something that everyone has to some extent and is part of human cognition. https://medium.com/purposeful-life/psychology-explains-why-we-put-incompetent-people-in-power-34545ce43557 Trump 14th Amendment ballot eligibility challenger arrested on federal tax fraud charges ohn Anthony Castro, a long-shot Republican presidential candidate vying to have former President Trump removed from the ballot over the 14th Amendment insurrection clause, was arrested on federal tax fraud charges Tuesday – a day after a federal judge in Nevada threw out one of his lawsuits aiming to bar Trump from running. https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/politics/trump-14th-amendment-ballot-eligibility-challenger-arrested-on-federal-tax-fraud-charges/ar-AA1mOxty Adams floats idea of New Yorkers housing migrants in ‘private residences’ Any spare rooms at Gracie Mansion? https://nypost.com/2023/06/05/adams-wants-new-yorkers-to-house-migrants-in-private-residences/ NYC Mayor Eric Adams defends housing migrants at high school amid backlash New York City Mayor Eric Adams defended temporarily housing migrants in a Brooklyn high school ahead of a winter storm this week, amid backlash over the administration's handling of the migrant crisis. https://abcnews.go.com/US/nyc-mayor-defends-housing-migrants-high-school/story?id=106302548 ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-DsWhvOlpLg
