Welcome back to your weekly buffet of Losers & Winners. The Losers under this week’s sneeze guard have a reservoir full of revenge and are holding their breath until someone gives them the slightest excuse to unleash it on the libs/leftists/trans people/BLM/Antifa/Dummycrats/Communists/leftists/Muslims/etc.
You get the picture.
On the Winners side of the buffet, well. There are a few options, but after the week we just had, it’s hard to imagine anyone in America feeling as if they’ve won. Last Tuesday night — if you can think back that far — I got a call from
, our executive editor. I had just been a guest on Anchor Watch with , and was wrapping up the day. It was about 8:30.Susan said that it appeared Putin had just invaded Poland.
Remember that? It’s quaint and clichéd to say in a normal year this woulda been the biggest story! But…in a normal year, this woulda been the biggest story. In fact, it still might be, whether or not we’re on the cusp of a third world war. The power vacuum that Trump’s America has left is a generational story.
But then Wednesday came, and the violence we were focused on in Europe came home, and everyone lost it. It was a dark, heavy week.
Nobody won, exactly.
So who do I choose? You’ll have to read on to find out. It might surprise you.
Rep. Bob Onder, et al, Loser(s)
Missouri state Representative Bob Onder is a Loser. But he’s not the only one.
Not long after the murder of Charlie Kirk, electeds, pundits, and MAGA-loyal unleashed a deluge of calls for vengeance in the name of unity. There were a few different spins on the message, but the gist across the board was that the “left” had divided the nation and was set on murdering everyone on the right. Therefore, they said, it was time to cleanse.
