Unbelievable self-own

Best and brightest, y'all

Hot Air: "Why can't Karine Jean-Pierre pronounce Nobel Prize?" - "KJP is a perfect example of someone who has a prestigious job simply because she checks off several identity boxes in a Democrat administration."

Stop. Do not pass Go.

Do not spend $200 billion.

Reason: "With Congressional Gridlock, Americans Get a National Breather." - "That's good news for Americans baffled by Democrats' insistence on treating the U.S. economy as something between a laboratory experiment and a toy train set, with lawmakers indulging their whims through serial rounds of life-altering policy moves." 

This guy has always been a clown

Red State: "Adam Schiff Has an Incredible Change of Heart on Congressional Investigations." 

Here come the pre-nups

I found this to be an interesting statistic from "‘Financial infidelity’ has money-conscious Gen Zers and Millennials saying ‘I don’t’."

The Knot’s Financial Study 2022 found that 43% of those surveyed were most likely to consider it a deal breaker if their partner was secretive about finances or dishonest about money being spent.

Research has also found that more couples are signing prenups regardless of their financial status — they’re not just for Gisele and Tom Brady. A new report from the Harris Poll found that 15% of U.S. adults surveyed signed a prenup, which is up from just 3% in 2010. It also found that 35% of unmarried people say they’re likely to sign a prenup in the future.

Also:

This aligns with other data. A new survey from buy-now, pay-later company Affirm found that millennials see the ability to manage money as the most attractive trait in a partner.

That's not a bad thing.

Spot the fake news story

The Bee: "Karine Jean-Pierre Insists It’s Not Her Job To Answer Questions Like Some Sort Of Press Secretary."

Not the Bee: "This man threw bricks at a NYC gay bar and liberals blamed it on right-wing bigotry. Turns out the guy is... well, you know." 

Happy Thanksgiving, everybody

Go Patriots!

Nice work if you can get it

Just a reminder to consider as you're paying 20% more for Thanksgiving, here's Joe Biden's public schedule since returning from the G20 summit:

Thursday: nothing

Friday: meeting with business and labor leaders

Saturday: wedding

Sunday: birthday party

Monday: pardoned the Thanksgiving turkey

Tuesday: travel to Nantucket

Wednesday (today): nothing

The paper of record

Babylon Bee: "CBS News Officially Confirms That Lincoln Has Been Shot." 

So...just like Reddit

Ace: "Leftist Totalitarians -- Or, as They Call Themselves, "Journalists" -- Flee the Hell of Free Speech That Is Twitter for the Leftwing Site Mastodon, and Make It Into What They Wish Twitter Always Had Been: A Site Where You Ban Anyone Who Disagrees."

I love this headline so much.  The story confirms all the stereotypes about journalists: they're a clubby, thin-skinned group of faux intellectuals who can't stand up to the wispiest breeze of dissent.

Of course

Fox News: "USDA blames Russia for rising price of Thanksgiving dinner."

USDA did not respond to questions from Fox News Digital about how Russia’s war against Ukraine is affecting turkey prices.

There's that "taking responsibility" White House in action again.

Debt forgiveness is unconstitutional

Let them eat solar panels

Time: "Here's How Much More Expensive Your Thanksgiving Dinner Will Be This Year"

The average American’s Thanksgiving dinner is likely to increase by about 20%, according to the American Farm Bureau Federation’s annual survey—by far the biggest jump recorded in the 37-year history of the report.

The cost for a holiday feast rose to $64.05 for 10 people, up from $53.31 from last year’s average, and a nearly 37% increase in cost from two years ago. The massive jump is perhaps not surprising, given that food inflation is at a four-decade high—but it demonstrates the increasing pressure on Americans’ finances.

In case you missed it, here's Joe lying yesterday:

Inflation at the grocery store is coming down slightly.

As far as I can tell from reviewing his speeches, this is the only time he's ever addressed food inflation.  People need to eat, Joe.

Also: get diabetes and then save on insulin!

Stop standing

Volokh Conspiracy: "Biden Administration Asks Supreme Court to Lift Injunction Blocking their Massive Loan Forgiveness Program."

Most experts believe the Administration has a much better chance of prevailing on standing than on the merits. That may be why the administration itself has significantly reduced the scope of the program in order to eliminate some potential plaintiffs who might be able to get standing.

The White House is putting all their effort into preventing standing in this case because they know they will fail on the law itself.  

Loser

The Corner: "Pelosi failed."

Nancy Pelosi is not an especially impressive figure. She was elected to Congress in 1986, and she spent her first six years in Washington, D.C., as a rank-and-file member of Congress who did nothing of any great interest. That changed after Bill Clinton was elected in 1992, but the immediate overreach resulted in Pelosi and her colleagues annoying the public so profoundly that the Democrats lost control of the House of Representatives for the first time in 40 years, and then stayed in the minority for the following twelve.

As noted here, her final act was to undermine the very institution she occasionally led.

I can name that tune in one note

Twitchy: "High school cross-country runner goes from 72nd to first place; What’s her secret?" 

Never change, NY Post

The front page of today's New York Post: "Florida man makes announcement."

Story on page 26. 

That's nice, I guess

Red State: "BREAKING: Republicans Win the House of Representatives."

The way things are going, I expect this will be reversed by morning. 

This moron used to be a law professor

Let's be clear: President Biden has the legal authority to cancel student debt.

Republican officials need to get out of the way so Americans can get this much-needed relief.

This tweet was posted this morning and didn't make it to lunch.  CNBC: "Federal appeals court blocks Biden student debt relief program nationwide."
