The WIRE: Your week in review

From less of a wave than expected to a dead pimp getting elected — and most points in between — it’s time for a look back at the week that was. Personal Liberty Digest® presents: The WIRE!

A below-average pickup for a party opposing the president in the midterms, a slim majority in the House and they lost seats in the Senate. Ooh, that’s some “blue wave.”

You can put away the lifeboats.

At least we took back the House! Now we can begin moving America forward! And our first step — making Nancy Pelosi Speaker again! Who better to be the face of progress than a 78-year-old multimillionaire!?

To be fair, her face has seen a lot of “progress.”

Beto O’Rourke, Stacey Abrams, Andrew Gillum, Bill Nelson, Heidi Heitkamp, Claire McCaskill and Phil Breseden. All received major-league celebrity boosts in the last weeks before the polls. All lost. It’s almost like Hollywood values don’t really translate to the rest of the country.

“Why don’t you ‘normals’ just let us handle the voting from now on?”

Abrams lost despite an assist from billionaire media mogul Oprah Winfrey, who ventured out of her palace to declare “We as women people need to stand united and vote our values!” OK, but let’s consider Oprah’s idea of “women’s values.”

“I found you a great one, Harv. Just promise me you’ll value her.”

Fun fact: Of the five Democrat Senators up for re-election in battleground states, all four who voted against the confirmation of Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh lost, while “yes” voter Joe Manchin (D-WV) kept his job.

“See you guys around the Capitol – oh wait, no I won’t.”

But wait, the Democrats have a new talking point: Even though they lost Senate seats, they “won” the overall “Senate popular vote.” It’s unfair that urban liberals should have the same representation in the Senate as those rubes in flyover country! So, what if that’s precisely why the Senate exists!

Republics, how do they work?

Of course, the Left needed a scapegoat for the letdown. They settled on — white women? Multiple liberal spokesholes claimed white women voting Republican in places like Florida is “proof” of the “racist patriarchy.”

“Some women aren’t buying our message of hatred and division. Instead of coming up with a cogent argument, we should call them stupid racists. That’ll bring ’em around.”

Scandal-plagued New Jersey Senator Bob Menendez raised eyebrows when he invited a juror from his corruption trial to his victory party.

The only surprising part of Menendez doing that is that she wasn’t underage.

Among the new House denizens is one of the first baby communists born outside captivity, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez! She intends to introduce bills making a whole host of taxpayer-funded entitlements, and even academic services, “free.”

Even money says the little dope introduces a bill to make the Electoral College tuition free.

Less than 24 hours after the elections, Jeff Sessions’ tenure as Attorney General ended abruptly. Liberals in multiple cities protested the termination; apparently forgetting they also protested his hiring in the first place. Among the benefits of manipulating millennials, they have very short memories.

Dude. That was 2017. That’s — like — three iPhone releases ago.

Some liberals remembered they hate Sessions, though. The left-wing hate group American Civil Liberties Union released a howler of a statement, in which they proclaimed, “Jeff Sessions was the worst attorney general in modern American history.”

Lol. Sessions wasn’t even the worst in this decade.

Terror gripped the liberal world this week when Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg was injured in a fall in her office. Good thing they changed the rules, rendering them pretty much powerless, should Trump get another nomination.

God bless you, Harry, wherever you are.

Oh good, another “known wolf” managed to walk right past multiple government agencies on the way to committing a terrorist attack. Even in the “gun control-iest” state, laws don’t mean much if law enforcement isn’t worth squat.

Ask the people of Parkland.

Look how well so-called “gun control” worked out for Canada and Europe! I mean, now they have a knife, truck and bomb violence problem, but no gun violence.

Except in Paris. And Brussels. And Quebec City. And Munich. And Gothenburg… etc. etc.

Don’t blame the Antifa mob who attacked Tucker Carlson’s wife the other night; they were only doing what Maxine Waters, Hillary Clinton and Eric Holder told them to.

You know, “just following orders.”

When CNN blowhole Jim Acosta threw a public tantrum in the middle of a presidential press briefing, including physically bullying a young woman working for the White House, most observers agreed with the president that CNN should be ashamed to employ an emotionally unstable prima donna like Acosta.

Fun fact: There’s more evidence showing Jim Acosta assaulting women than there ever has been of Brett Kavanaugh.

And congrats to the winner in the election for the 36th District seat in the Nevada State Assembly, brothel owner Dennis Hof, who’s been dead for three weeks. When they say, “what happens in Vegas stays in Vegas,” they’re not kidding.

How about his opponent? You have chosen the wrong career path if voters chose a dead pimp over you.

And that’s your week in review! For the Personal Liberty Digest^®, I’m Ben Crystal saying, “See you next week, on The WIRE!”
