Then we discuss how the death of GOP Rep. Doug LaMalfa and resignation of Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene reduced the GOP narrow control of the House to 218 – 213 with special elections upcoming for 5 vacant seats, the Pentagon announcement that it will begin reviewing the effectiveness of women in ground combat positions, and the MAGA granny Pamela Hemphill making an emotional apology to the January 6th officers at a hearing. Next we discuss Stephen Miller’s insane interview with Jake Tapper, Lindsey Graham looking and sounding like he’s starting to have geriatric issues like Trump, and the state of Utah staring to use A.I. to prescribe medications. Then we discuss George Santos’ claim that he’s going to Venezuela to aid oppressed people, Megan Kelly turning on Trump over Venezuela and saying FOX News sounds like Russian propaganda in their coverage, and Trump’s call to double the Department of Defense budget to $1.5 trillion dollars. Next we discuss Rep. Steny Hoyer’s announcement that the is retiring from Congress, Dr. Oz warning Americans not to drink alcohol for breakfast, the House passing a 3-year extension of the ACA subsidies, and the Senate voting to restrict Trump from taking any further military actions in Venezuela.

On the show this week we discuss the sad death of Tatiana Schlossbert, JFK’s granddaughter, from cancer and Trump’s vile social media post about the Kennedy family afterwards, the Toilet Paper USA conference the weekend before Christmas that was supposed to be for the next generation of young conservatives but the audience was filled with the same old people who attend CPAC, and Nikki Minaj deleting her Instagram account after 10 million people unfollowed her after her appearance at the Toilet Paper USA conference. Then we discuss the 60 Minutes CECOT segment that was pulled from US CBS stations but aired in Canada and went viral online, the Supreme Court’s order rejecting Trump’s National Guard deployment in Illinois, and Trump withdrawing the National Guard from all cities except Washington, DC after the ruling. Next we discuss the Trump hosted Kennedy Center Awards earning the lowest ratings in history, several artists cancelling performances including a six week run of ‘Hamilton’ after Trump put his name on the building, and Trump’s useless meeting with Ukraine President Zelenskyy. Then we discuss Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene saying she was naive for believing Trump was a man of the people as well as that he told her his friends would get hurt if the Epstein files are released, China staging military drills around Taiwan to warn external forces after US and Japan tensions, and Trump’s Christmas Day attacks on Nigeria. Next we discuss Trump’s meeting with Netanyahu and the Pentagon announcing an 8.6 billion dollar Boeing contract for F-15 jets for Israel right afterwards, Trump telling his fans to donate to him or else Democrats will steal their money, and Trump’s dementia getting noticeably worse with unhinged posts over the Holidays. Then we discuss the Federal Reserve renewing all nine banking board members for 5-year terms before Powell’s term ends in March, Elon Musk may face charges in France for election interference, and Musk’s melt down over Zohran Mamdani’s choice to lead the Fire Department in NYC.
