The Week In Pictures
The Week in Pictures: What Next?
Another week, another Trump indictment. I hear there may be another one coming next week. Yawn. I know there is a premium on reruns while the Hollywood actors and writers strike is going on, but this is getting tedious. Can’t we at least get another UFO hearing or something? Headlines of the week: And finally. . . »
The Week in Pictures: Hunter or Hunted Edition
Hunter Biden must have misunderstood his lawyers, and thought they said “flea bargain” instead of “plea bargain,” as they hoped they could sneak a general grant of immunity by a federal judge if it was written in a font the size of a flea in an appendix the judge only received the morning of the hearing. Hunter still hasn’t actually been formally indicted for anything (important not so small detail), »
The Week in Pictures: Barbenheimer Edition
I’m confused. Am I supposed to go see a movie about an atomic bomb, or an atomic blonde? Or is it just one movie about a blonde bombshell? I wish Hollywood could put down its picket signs long enough to sort us out. Speaking of bombs, have you looked at Joe Biden his week? His deterioration now seems to proceed visibly with each day. And Kamala is starting an obvious »
The Week in Pictures: Peak Farce Edition
This week the Biden Administration reached full farce stage, reaching the territory Woody Allen described as “a travesty of a mockery of a sham of a mockery of two mockeries of a sham.” Both Biden and Kamala were out in public at the same time trying to one-up each other in their ongoing banal inanity contest ; John Kerry said the “climate” was the biggest casualty of the Ukraine war; »
The Week in Pictures: Cocaine Bear Edition
Why do I have this sudden urge to screen “Cocaine Bear”? I skipped it when it was in theatrical release a few months ago because the story line seemed so preposterous: a hairy mammal gets hold of a large quantity of cocaine and goes on a rampage. That could never happen. It turns out to have been prophecy of a sort. Hunter Biden—the Biden who really puts the “white” in »
Mid-Week in Pictures: Special July 4 Edition
Why not celebrate today with a special TWiP since there are so many good July 4 memes that will be stale by Saturday? I’m still not sure just what I’m going to grill this afternoon, but it won’t involve any B– L—- beer. And finally. . . Chaser—J.P. Sears with tips on how to celebrate July 4: »
The Week in Pictures: Halfway Point Edition
So 2023 is half done? It seems fully-baked already, at least when I look at the White House. The biggest question right now is which Biden is going to implode faster than the Titan submersible: Joe or Hunter? I’m halfway to filling my impeachment Bingo card with proceedings pending for Biden, Mayorkas, and Garland. Who else? And then there’s Putin. . . Headlines of the week: And finally. . . »
The Week in Pictures: Trans-Biden Edition?
So let’s take stock. As the week began everyone was still talking about how much trouble Trump was in. By the end of the week, we’re starting to talk about how much trouble Biden is in. The plea deal with Hunter was supposed to put the matter behind us, but this plea deal, coupled with the dynamite revelations of Hunter’s shakedown tactics with foreign business figures, takes me back to »
The Week in Pictures: Pride and No Prejudice Edition
I can’t help it: Biden began his week with a Pride Month celebration that got out of hand (so to speak), and ended with him saying “God save the Queen, man!” Now, everyone thinks he confusingly meant Queen Elizabeth, whom God has already secured without the help of Antony Blinken, but in fact is it more likely that Biden still had that other queen category on mind from Monday’s spectacular, »
The Week in Pictures: Blowing Smoke Everywhere Edition
The old saying “blowing smoke up your skirt” got taken to absurd lengths this week. Canada has lots of company in the smoke blowing department. Biden blew chunks of smoke about the economy and much else. The Justice Department promises that Trumpsmoke means there’s a real fire somewhere, while Target and the rest of corporate America are asking “what is a skirt that someone should blow smoke up anyway?” Headlines »
The Week in Pictures: Down Goes Biden!
This was the week we really wished Howard Cosell was still around to do blow-by-blow commentary on Joe Biden’s unfortunate encounter with a sandbag (symbolic, that), which would culminate in a new version of his most famous boxing moment: “Down goes Biden! Down goes Biden! Down goes Biden!” Headlines of the week: And finally. . . »
The Week in Pictures: Senile Liberalism Edition
Come of think of it, Biden, Feinstein, and Fetterman are the perfect exemplars of senescent leftism today, and as such the ideal leaders of today’s Democratic Party. No wonder they’ve become the party of transgenderism, since their socialist wish-fulfillment fantasies aren’t working out very well. Headlines of the week: And finally. . . Tina Turner, RIP: »
The Week in Pictures: F-Men Edition
Forget calling FBI agents “G-men” from now on. They should be henceforth known as “F-men.” You can piece it together if you try. If you had a life raft that could hold only one person and you had an FBI agent and a mainstream media reporter hanging on, why would you pop the life raft instead of saving one of them? Headlines of the week: And finally. »
The Week in Pictures: Trump Returns Edition
Remember that video from more than a decade ago where Donald Trump turned up outside the ring at a World Wide Wrestling match and body-slammed Vince McMahon to the floor? He did it again this week to CNN. And while professional wrestling is fake, the CNN town hall on Wednesday was not “fake news” by any means. You know what is fake? Claims that Biden and his family are completely »
The Week in Pictures: No Energy in the Executive Edition
Another week with more indications that we don’t even have a 9 to 5 commander in chief. More like 10 to 4, if we’re lucky. At least this White House is showing us what a four-day work week will look like when we decide to go Full France. Meanwhile, we hear rumors that Bud Light is plotting its comeback with an ad campaign on Fox News prime time, and they’re »
The Week in Pictures: Tuckered Out Edition
So did Anheuser-Busch get to Rupert Murdoch and plead to have public ire redirected from Bud Light? Does anyone else think Tucker Carlson should launch a beer? (No, of course it couldn’t be light beer. Goes without saying.) Meanwhile, Buzzed Lighthead, AKA Joe Biden, is running again. Headlines of the week: And finally. . . »
The Week in Pictures: The Unbearable Bud Lightness of Being
The Bud Light blunder is proving to have “legs,” as they say in the media business, as it brings into sharp relief the madness of our time. Surely senior management at Anheuser-Busch must be fuming about turning over stewardship of brand identity to an identity-monger. What did they think was going to happen? Too bad Bud Light doesn’t come as as ice cream, thus giving a fresh brain freeze to »
