• Houston voters elected longtime Texas legislator James Whitmore mayor Sunday in a landslide victory over Sheila Jackson Lee. He won vowing to back police and clamp down on crime. I'm not saying crime is out of hand, but I just bought an Advent Calendar and half the windows are boarded up.

• The Wall Street Journal reported that Governor Newsom and California legislators just found the state treasury sixty-eight billion dollars in the hole. Every U.S. president and every lawmaker in Washington suffers from the same malady. Psychologists call it Lack of Attention to the Deficit Disorder.

• Ukraine's President Zelensky visited Washington to try to add pressure on Republicans to pass aid free of U.S. border wall provisions that Biden won't sign. Everyone is dug in. Republicans have come to believe that if Democrats want to make everything electric they should start with the border fence.

• President Biden delivered twenty-two million dollars to Philadelphia's fire department Monday to reinstate one fire station and train seventy-five new firefighters. It's a humane gesture. The way his polls are going, Joe thinks Philadelphia might need as many fire trucks as possible on Election Night

• Dick Cheney's daughter Liz Cheney, head cheerleader for the defense industry in Washington, is reported mulling a run for U.S. president. We used to manufacture arms to fight wars, now we manufacture wars to sell arms. Any day expect to hear that Yemen harbors weapons of mass destruction.

• Harvard bled donors Monday as calls increased for the president's resignation for her hapless equivocation on genocide. I'm at my wits' end with woke people. Today I posted my holiday card to all my friends and followers on social media that wishes everybody a Happy Whatever Doesn't Offend You.
