The Golden Globes Awards were highlighted by Ricky Gervais' blistering and hilarious anti-PC opening monologue. It didn't go unnoticed in Washington. Ricky Gervais could be impeached and removed from show business for attacking Hollywood without first obtaining Congressional approval.
President Trump ordered the military to launch a drone-fired Hellfire missile to kill Iran's Major General and terrorism coordinator Qassim Suleimani. The mainstream media was aghast. If Trump killed Hitler the New York Times would mourn the loss of a promising Austrian artist and vegetarian.
Iran's Major General Qassim Suleimani was killed by a Hellfire missile fired by a drone aircraft waiting for him to deplane on the tarmac at the Baghdad Airport. Naturally the Iraqis call the act a murder. However, the New York City prison medical examiner ruled his death a suicide.
Iran reacted swiftly to the drone attack assassination of its leading terrorist General Suleimani in Baghdad. Iran immediately offered an eighty million dollar reward for the head of Donald Trump. Imagine how awful Kathy Griffin feels, she had it in her hand and then threw it away.
French president Emmanuel Macron reacted to the war drums in the Persian Gulf and declared that the nation of France would not join the United States in any armed conflict with Iran. It's a brand-new record. The war hasn't even started and already France has surrendered.
Newsweek's Jonathan Alter told CNN the decision to take out General Suleimani was the right call made by the wrong president. The left was not about to give President Trump any credit for the action. Iran immediately endorsed Nancy Pelosi's statement that Trump is a clear and present danger.
White Settlement, Texas, produced a local hero when an armed member of the church security team killed a church shooter. But now the media is saying that the town's name sounds exclusive and racist. So to placate the liberals, the town agreed to change its name to White Settlement, Connecticut.
Hillary Clinton was honored in Northern Ireland when she was named Chancellor of Queen's University by the school's regents in Belfast. In addition it's rumored that Bill Clinton will soon be joining Joe Biden on the campaign trail in Iowa. It'll be known as the Fondling Fathers tour.
The London Daily Mail reported Prince Harry and Meghan decided to give up their titles and duties without informing Queen Elizabeth or anyone else in the Royal Family. The reaction was said to be volcanic. The Queen just pronounced her grandson The Harry Formerly Known as Prince.
Billboard magazine quoted superstar recording artist Cardi B slamming President Trump for his recent actions with Iran. She said she's so angry that she's seeking Nigerian citizenship. She's already met seven Nigerian princes online who told her that for a donation, they can make it happen.
Michael Bloomberg bought a six-million-dollar campaign ad in the Super Bowl. So the Trump campaign responded by buying a six-million-dollar Super Bowl commercial. The other candidates are so strapped for cash that they are betting what little they have on the game just to stay in the race.
Pete Buttigieg issued a statement blaming Trump for Iran's accidental shoot-down of an Iran airliner. I wondered which candidate would say this first. If President Trump were to adopt a stray dog, the Democrats would accuse him of introducing rabies into the general population.
President Trump announced that tensions with Iran have eased Wednesday after Iran fired off wild missile shots missing U.S. personnel. There won't be a war. The president's good news was quickly contested by his two leading Democrat critics, Damned if He Does and Damned if He Doesn't.
Nancy Pelosi griped that Trump didn't brief Congress before the U.S. attack on Iran's terrorist general. He'd just learned a new trick. Trump was going to send his attack plans over to Pelosi but he decided to hold them up until Congress lets him know how they're going to handle them.
