It is to laugh
“Clarence Thomas, resign or be impeached”
Like Kevin McCarthy’s House of Reps is going to impeach Justice Thomas! (!!!) 😛

Question of the Day
What ‘Deep State’?
Rachael Rollins, the US attorney for Massachusetts, leaked sensitive Justice Department information to a journalist in an effort to influence a local election, lied to investigators and improperly attended a fundraiser with Jill Biden, according to two critical federal reports released Wednesday. (More here.)
How can anyone take them seriously?
Charles C.W. Cooke asks at National Review.
“Rachel Maddow made a career out of spreading lunatic conspiracy theories on MSNBC, as did Chris Hayes and Nicolle Wallace (who is still, today, rejecting all evidence that contradicts her fever dream). Adam Schiff lied relentlessly from his official perch on the United States House Committee on Foreign Affairs, and is now gearing up to run for the Senate.”
Education
Blaska Policy Werkes 
Got up a couple hours after I retired, and read a bunch of commentary about The Game. My takeaway? We’ve had enough “kicks at the can” with with Rodgers. He’s a legendary quarterback with flaws, and I’m grateful for the thirty year Favre/Rodgers run despite the lack of success when it really counted.
Given the failure last night when everything was in place, and after all the off-season drama; it’s time to rebuild. We fans need a reason to root hard for our Packers next year.

Newsflash: nobody cares about overpaid, overrated “athletes” playing in woke sports.
In recent years if you take a little time to observe, in much of Wisconsin more than a few of us have just stopped caring about the Packers, which is remarkable.
Once the NFL went Full Woke that started the decline.

I had strong suspicions all year that they were not as good as their record. Lot’s of close games and last second wins.

Defense played great.
Silver lining: if Rams beat Bucs, NFC championship will be at SoFi stadium. We SoFi stockholders like the additional exposure. Always think “What’s in it for me?”.

Devastating, low-energy loss. Sure, a bit of a bad break w/ the unearned TD on a muffed kick, but talk about a DOA playoff team —The Green & Gold was fuzzy with mold.
Only ONE thing was worse: The Pack unwittingly created the perfect opportunity for Jimmy G. to mouth off like the teenage girl he is…

The nod to the Favre/Rodgers era is worth noting. How fortunate for so long to have been fans of a team so blessed. What if we’d had to root for da Bears?
Given that, time to turn. I’m not especially confident of where the Packers are headed from here, nor do I particularly care, but I’ve finally seen enough of Rodgers as the focal point. Thanks for the memories. Let him pass.

Da Woke NFL. Commercials about getting paid less because of color, not ability. Their ship has sailed. We do need bread and circuses though for the peons to be distracted once the trap door opens. Wondering when we\ll be seeing commercials of 2 Mommies on the way to the spunk bank in their dependable Subaru.

And, stop home field advantage crap just so they can get shit faced wearing dumb cheese wiz hats, playing when 10 degrees instead of a covered venue would have made big difference, but then again, I knew Rodgers would choke again, but still get MVP for mo money for 2nd place again this yr.
