It’s Wednesday, November 11th, 2020…but before we begin…

And never forget it.

Now, here’s The Gouge!

First up, as Mark Steyn notes, in a classic example of “What Have You Done for Me Lately?!?”, Bibi Netanyahu expressed his appreciation to Trump for moving the U.S. embassy to Jerusalem by moving The Donald…

“Congratulations @JoeBiden and @KamalaHarris. Joe, we’ve had a long & warm personal relationship for nearly 40 years, and I know you as a great friend of Israel. I look forward to working with both of you to further strengthen the special alliance between the U.S. and Israel.“

…right off his speed dial!  Joe Biden…a great friend to Israel…seriously, Bibi?!?  C’mon, man!  Using Netanyahu’s twisted politics, all those who were a greater friend to Israel than Joe Biden, please raise your hand.

With friends like Biden, who needs Nazis?!?

Meanwhile, if in fact The Donald‘s future employment opportunities may be dimming, as the incomparable Stilton Jarlsberg records, Hunter Biden’s…

…are blindingly bright…provided you’ve got the right amount of cash…along with 10% for the Big Guy!

Speaking of lying scumbags who’ll do or say anything for a buck, Townhall.com‘s Beth Baumann details the latest deceit courtesy of West Virginia’s senior senator, as…

Joe Manchin Distances Himself Further From His Party: I Won’t Vote for These Items

“There’s a lot of people are concerned. There’s a lot of fear tactics are being used right now, Brett. If both of the Georgia senators were elected from the Democratic Party, then that would be 50-50 if both Dan Sullivan and Thom Tillis win. (Oops! Tillis HAS won, and Sullivan is a lock to win as well!) 50-50 means there’s a tie but if one senator does not vote on the Democratic side, there is no tie and there is no bill,” he explained to Fox News’ Brett Baier. “So I can commit to you here tonight, and I can commit to all of your viewers and everyone else that’s watching (As opposed to those viewing!), I wanna lay those fears. (What,…like Clinton and Monica?!?) I wanna rest those fears (Is this clown the Mountaineer equivalent of The Donald?!?) for you right now because when they (Who’s “they”: you mean “the combined leadership of your party”…including Joe Biden and Kamala Harris?!?) talk about whether it be packing the courts or ending the filibuster, I will not vote to do that. I will not vote to pack the courts. I will not vote to end the filibuster.“

In other words, don’t worry about the Georgia run-offs, America, ’cause Joe’s got your back.  Manchin’s promises remind us of another accomplished liar who shares his Christian name:

When WILL West Virginians wake up?!?

Moving on, as we’ve often said of late, it ain’t over ’til the fat lady sings; and while time’s not yet of the essence for Trump (Al Gore’s concession came December 13th), the date by which battleground states are required to certify their election results grows ever closer.  And despite stories of election irregularities flying with the speed and frequency of the French army before the Germans at the Marne in May of 1940, we’re afraid the SCOTUS will need something more concrete than rumor and innuendo to overturn the results of the recent election…though we’ve no doubt whatsoever, Neil Cavuto’s willful blindness notwithstanding, the Dimocrats cheated more often than Bill Clinton on a trip to Epstein Island.

Still, absent any facts offered in evidence, what follows are some of the best bits of post-election analysis we’ve reviewed to date, including, but not limited to:

(1). Courtesy of Jewish World Review via Daniel Francis , Mark Steyn assesses Election Day Plus Six.

(2). Writing at The American Spectator, David Catron analyzes why, at THIS point, Trump SHOULDN’T CONSIDER conceding.

(3). In a forward from Balls Cotton, legendary aircraft designer Burt Rutan’s keen analytical abilities lead him to conclude the election was stolen.

(4). The WSJ‘s Bill McGurn relates how, having sown the wind, Hairplug Joe’s now reaping the whirlwind.

Bill fails to mention the eight years George W. was declared illegitimate.

Though, given what Politico, recently reported… 

George W. Bush congratulates Biden and Harris on election victory

The former Republican president said the incoming Democratic president “has won this opportunity to lead and unify our country.”

…we wouldn’t piss on Dubya were he engulfed in flames.  As G. Trevor noted, really George?  We were there for you in 2000; and this is how you thank us in 2020?!?

We have it on good authority Babs Bush voted for Hillary because The Donald was so mean to her little boy Jeb in the run-up to 2016; so, to echo Keith Koffler, we’re only surprised George was able to wait this long.  Never have we so longed for a family to disappear from national politics…outside of the Kennedys, Clintons and Obamas.

Since we’re on the subject of the most divisive First Family in American history and Keith Koffler, as he informs us at White House Dossier…

Michelle Obama insults and condescends to Trump Voters

As Keith concludes…

“Nothing does more to divide this nation than the identity politics of you, your husband and the rest of the Left. The Left lives in a world of hate.“

Not to mention specializing in lies and chaos.

Defense Secretary Mark Esper Has Been Fired

Here’s hoping The Donald induces Chris Wray and Anthony Fauci to pack their bags as well.

Which brings us to The Lighter Side:

Then there’s this from the lovely Shannon…

…two from Balls Cotton…

…along with a few more from Ed Hickey:

Finally, also from Ed Hickey, we’ll call it a wrap with this string of largely age-related humor we feature in honor of our finally becoming eligible for Medicare:

Okay, those last three weren’t as much “largely age-related” as they were just “large related”.
