Joe Rogan hilariously trolls The View after host called him a ‘dragon believer'

There is so much good news that the Donald Trump victory has blessed us with during these trying times.

The humiliation of the media, from The View and MSNBC on down, is one of those joys.

    

Jussie Smollett's conviction overturned by Democrat-controlled Illinois Supreme Court

Another embarrassing episode from the disastrous Kim Foxx misrule as Cook County's prosecutor leaves a disappointing result.

The stench from Jussie Smollett's racist attack hoax---and Chicago is still not "MAGA country"--should plague him for the rest of his life.

There is a 4-3 Democrat majority on the state Supreme Court.

From the Chicago Sun-Times:

In a blockbuster ruling Thursday, the state Supreme Court overturned the conviction of actor Jussie Smollett for an alleged 2019 hoax hate crime, a move that will spare the former “Empire” star a five-month jail sentence, if not clear his name. 

Smollett had challenged nearly every aspect of his case, arguing that he should have been done with the case after Cook County State’s Attorney Kim Foxx’s office struck a deal to drop the charges, that the special prosecutor who re-investigated the case and re-indicted him a year later was wrongfully appointed.

 Smollett spent six days in jail in 2022, before being released to wait out his appeals. An appeals court last year upheld Smollett’s sentence on five low-level felony counts related to lying to police about an attack he and two accomplices staged near his Streeterville apartment.

Foxx leaves office in two weeks. The prosecutor who is reluctant to prosecute is one of the worst public servants in Illinois history, and the competition is steep among the crooks and incompetents who get elected here. Her boneheaded decision to drop charges related to Smollett's hoax will haunt Foxx for the rest of her life. So, there's a little bit of upside here for those of us who believe people should be accountable for their misdeeds.

'Full House' actress leaves L.A. due to safety concerns | National Report

Los Angeles, which just declared itself a sanctuary city, has one less resident.

Candace Cameron Bure, who played D.J. Tanner on Full House, moved out--citing safety concerns.

Brian Stelter has a new idea about why no one trusts mainstream media anymore!

What a pathetic round little man he is.

Brian Stelter is blaming everyone but the mainstream media for people no longer trusting them.

The Kinks - All Day And All Of The Night (Official Audio)

Shel Talmy, the Chicago-born producer for the Kinks in their early years--who also produced the debut album for The Who, which included their epochal "My Generation," died this week. He was 87.

The grinding guitar sound from the early years of the Kinks and The Who inspired the punk and grunge sounds. 

Rest in peace. 

Here's a Kinks classic from the Talmy era, "All Day and All of the Night."

Van Morrison: I Need Your Kind of Loving

Fall must be Van Morrisons favorite season. In the closing track of his 1991 double album, Hymns to the Silence, "I Need Your Kind of Loving," the Belfast Lion sings, "Well I love you in the autumn most of all."

Morrison often mentions autumn in his songs.

America wins: Trump is the president-elect

Donald J. Trump made the biggest political comeback in American history--he will be the 47th president of the United States. Not only that, but the Republicans have recaptured the Senate. The House of Representatives is too close to call.

Trump has a decent shot of winning the popular vote.

I am so proud to be an American. 

It's morning again in America.

There's bad news on this Election Day morning. A Chicago cop was murdered.

From Fox Chicago:

The shooting happened during a traffic stop around 8 p.m. in the 8000 block of South Ingleside Avenue, according to Chicago police. 

Someone inside the vehicle started shooting as police approached, striking one officer and another occupant of the vehicle. Police said at least one officer returned fire. The suspect tried to drive away and struck another officer at the scene. The driver then tried to run away from the car but was arrested in the 8000 block of South Maryland Avenue, police said. 

The officer who was shot was taken to the University of Chicago Hospital where he was pronounced dead.

The Fraternal Order of Police identified him Tuesday morning as 26-year-old Officer Enrique Martinez.

Kamala still can't answer a basic question, with Election Day just hours away

There's a California ballot initiative, Proposition 36, that will increase the penalties for theft.

A reporter asked Kamala Harris, who lives in San Francisco, how she voted on that measure, and she of course responded with a word salad.

How is Harris going to handle Putin, Xi, or Kim?
