The Week In Pictures
December 4, 2021 — Steven Hayward
Good grief. No sooner to do I label last week’s gallery the “new deviant edition” than Fredo Cuomo is put in limbo at CNN for his covering up his brother’s predations, the Ghislaine Maxwell trial got under way (speaking of deviants), the Jussie Smollett trial got under way, Alec Baldwin borrows a page from the killer Waukesha SUV and claims the gun went off by itself and it isn’t his

Oh that’s just great: a new COVID variant. A new variant is Christmas come early for the deviants in government. And the news broke so late Thursday that the memosphere hasn’t generated much new material yet in time for today’s gallery. We shall have to make do the best we can, with the usual targets. Which brings us to. . . headlines of the week: And finally. . .

This year we give special thanks for the meme-makers who are delivering a heaping pile of tryptophanic material about the Kyle Rittenhouse acquittal, with no thanks to the Biden Administration for inflation and their inflated excuses. And finally. . . a Turkey Day bonus gallery:

The reaction from the left to the acquittal of Kyle Rittenhouse tells you all you need to know about the left’s regard for the rule of law and due process. But there was other good news this week, such as the announcement that Beto O’Rourke is running again in Texas, and I’m still wondering just what Jedi mind trick Gov. Abbott used to pull this off. And, of course, more

So, the budget blowout bill has passed the House. You know things are bad when the nation’s prospects hang by the slender thread of an egotistical senator from West Virginia. If the bill passes the Senate, expect this historically high gap in favor of the GOP to grow even larger: • Meanwhile, the other blowout numbers from this week are the soaring deaths from drug overdoses: • We’re also Number

So inflation is back, and thus TWiP will have to raise its prices, or at least its picture and meme count, to adjust. Meanwhile, the steady deflation of the Biden presidency continues. And the latest UN climate summit—COP 26—has adjourned with an important agreement . . . to meet again next year! Because the time for words is over, but there’s always time for more meetings where everyone says the

Time for another data-rich roundup, focusing on the usual suspects—energy, economics, and wokism. • Let’s start with the Bumbling Biden Brigade: Is the economy slowing, just as inflation is accelerating? Meanwhile, while we argue about OSHA implementing the vaccine mandate, this is a good time to review the macro evidence that OSHA has done close to nothing to affect workplace safety: • News you can use: • Some poll data

Sometimes, Stan Evans liked to say when conservatives scored a big win, you just have to take the sweet with the sweet. And Tuesday’s election results were pretty sweet indeed. And the left’s reaction on MSNBC and in the rest of the media remind me of the New Yorker cartoon of the two dogs at the bar, where one dog says, “It’s not enough that dogs succeed; cats must also

So it’s Halloween weekend, and with several “Let’s Go Brandon” rap tunes topping the charts, I’d think some Biden costumes would be a big hit on the pumpkin spice trail tomorrow night, though any Biden costumes are probably stuck on a ship out in the ocean somewhere. Maybe improvise a supply-chain manager costume? Headlines of the week: And finally. . .

When Alexander Hamilton wrote of “energy in the executive,” he could never have imagined the lack of energy in our current chief executive, in both senses of the word: the man has no personal energy, and he’s flailing over the the kind of energy the rest of us need and use. • Let’s start with what low-energy poll numbers look like: Gee, I wonder if Biden’s open border policy

We are happy to report that we are not experiencing any supply chain issues with regard to memes, pics, and headlines for TWiP. Hurricane Brandon continues to topple the ramshackle trailer park of the Biden White House leaving an ample debris field of comic material, while Democrats in Congress keep living up to Will Rogers’ famous line about how “I don’t belong to an organized political party—I’m a Democrat!” Let’s

Brandon is still trending yuuuge, but this week definitely belongs to Shatner. Brandon will be around for a while, but really, how often do we get to indulge a full on Kirkasm? Meanwhile, Biden and Harris continue to be the ghost ship White House. How’s that reconciliation package coming? Maybe Southwest Airlines can help them land it. Oh, wait. Headlines of the week: And finally. . .

John has already dilated the self-abuse of liberals with regards to Indigenous Peoples Day Columbus Day, so I won’t add more here (except to say that when it comes to the supposed sin of “assimilation,” people ought to meditate on the deeper meaning of the seldom-noted clause in the Constitution which reads “excluding indians not taxed”—there’s a serious principle embedded in that seemingly technical phrase that is totally lost on today’s

It’s obvious that if Trump runs again in 2024, he should name “Brandon” as his running mate, so rally crowds can yell “Let’s go Brandon!” This is better than shouting the vernacular version, and the media will be totally flummoxed having to explain it over and over again. Meanwhile, did Facebook have the worst week ever, or what? Headlines of the week: And finally. . .

The problem with believing progressive B.S. about the “side of history” is that sometimes “progress” hits a sand bar. Like this week for the Dems. So what do they do? Rage against our constitutional order, as noticed here over and over again. But we may look back on this week as the week when Biden’s presidency hit the rocks and sank. Headlines of the week:

It’s pretty clear by now that the FBI should change its name so its agency acronym properly reflects its true character: Fabricated Inventions Bureau, or FIB. Of course, the White House might not like the explicit competition from such truth-in-labeling. You know the old saying about how what American needs is a good five-cent cigar? Well. . . Headlines of the week: And finally. . .

Well, it’s been a bad week, what with the California recall failing miserably, news of a “Seven-Days-in-May” scenario playing out in the closing weeks of the Trump Administration courtesy of General Thoroughly Modern Millie, and more COVIDery from Slow Joe and His Crew. But at least we have the Met Gala! Liberals are always great for free entertainment on the hypocrisy front. And AOC is the gift that keeps on
