Happy Friday, everyone! This week has been the longest month ever, right? Watching results trickle in from Arizona and Nevada is maddening; how in the world do the least talented among us get put in charge of counting votes?
Anyway, how did your election day go? Did your guy or gal win? Still waiting for your inept elections officials to count the ballots? After seeing Ron DeSantis’ seriously decisive win, I have to wonder why we’re not all living in Florida?
Things were pretty dismal for my candidates here in Loudoun County, VA. I was hoping Glen Youngkin’s win last year would carry over to the midterms, but it looks like my fellow citizens are too addicted to the federal government largesse from which we benefit to actually vote in a sane manner.
Virginia did pick up a seat in the House, though, so the commonwealth is a bit redder than it was on Monday. And, hey, perpetual also-rans Beto O’Rourke, Charlie Crist and Evan McMullin went down in flames, so that was fun.
Jesse Watters had this interesting thought on how to fix things with this year’s election spoiler, unmarried women:
He’s mostly right, of course, but not for the reasons the outraged left think. There’s nothing like marrying and becoming a parent to put everything in perspective, from economics and eduction to crime and abortion. Feel free to chime in with your thoughts on why single women vote for Dems.
And it looks like things are going to get messy going into the 2024 presidential race, with Trump taking swings at DeSantis and even attacking my governor, Youngkin. I’m really not sure where he’s going with these personal attacks. Will he make an announcement next Tuesday? Watch this space.
Have a great weekend!!

Here’s how we know Hollywood fears the rising of Ron DeSantis
First, a warning: This isn’t exactly family-friendly material. Not that you were expecting a story about Hollywood to be wholesome and endearing, of course, but they’re really flaunting their perverted street cred on this one.
Their target this time is Ron DeSantis.
In a scene from the Paramount Plus show, “The Good Fight” — yeah, I’ve never heard of it, either — the writers introduced a fictional DeSantis staffer who claimed he was sexually assaulted by his former boss. At CPAC, of all places. I’ve been to many CPACs, and let’s just say it’s a setting for the salacious encounter portrayed here only in the twisted minds of the show’s writers.
The scene from the show is being included here for informational purposes; it’s really sick stuff, so just know that before you watch.
What kind of sick mind would write such a demented — not to mention defamatory — scene like this? It seems to be par for the course in today’s entertainment industry, where deviancy is the norm and viewers are left with scant few family-friendly options. Perversion runs amok in Hollywood.
If the show needed some seedy material to spice things up, the world of politics is full of them. It’s really not all that hard to find child sniffers, tales of sexual encounters in, say, the Oval Office, or even sons of political figures engaging in all sorts of debauchery.
But, no, Hollywood has to target a God-fearing family man like Ron DeSantis because he is everything they fear. He took on Disney and won. He engages in the culture wars and wins. He protects schoolchildren from the radical trans agenda and their enablers in the educational system. He’s a proven winner. He is the anti-Hollywood and voters like his style. Just look at Tuesday’s results.
In short, Ron DeSantis and his blessedly conservative agenda are a huge threat to Hollywood. And his star has just begun to rise, thus, the ridiculous scene above that is so clearly intended as payback for his successes. They fear him because he’s a fighter with a winning record. And Americans love a winner.
Unfortunately for Hollywood, Ron DeSantis isn’t going anywhere.

Well, I guess to “put a ring on it” means letting the air out of your coworker’s tires (to get a date) and divorcing your spouse. https://www.independent.co.uk/life-style/fox-news-jesse-watters-single-women-b2222537.html
