It’s time to look back on 2024 and come up with some superlatives.
STUPIDEST ELECTION ANTICS OF ALL TIME … That goes to the Democrat campaign of 2024. Up until July 2024, the plan was to run Joe Biden, despite a million reasons to go for someone younger and, well, sentient. There comes a point in the election cycle where you just can’t introduce a new candidate because of limited campaign time, deadlines in the states to get on ballots, and even printing of ballots. Biden was adamant about going for another term, had a bad debate performance (was anyone surprised?) and then Kamala was shuffled in, took his electors (is that even legal?), took his money, and became the Democrat nominee without getting one vote. Nevertheless, the Democrats—who always said Trump was a threat to democracy—tell us this is how democracy is supposed to work.
BEST MAFIA PRINCESS … This award belongs to Nancy Pelosi who stepped in and skillfully put an end to the Biden campaign. Nancy was born in Baltimore to Mayor Tommy D’Alesandro, Jr., a wheeler-dealer old-fashioned politician with mafia ties. Back when she was growing up as the only daughter in the D’Alesandro household, little Nancy kept her daddy’s “book of favors,” writing out who owed them what for what specific favors. Nancy may be older than Joe Biden, but she still has her basic skill set intact.
MOST EXPENSIVE LUXURY VACATION … The prize goes to Kamala Harris who blew through $1.2B or $1.5B (some estimates say more) in little over three months on what she called a campaign but what was actually just a lot of private jets taking her from one celebrity party to the next. Kamala is so objectionable and annoying, she had to pay these celebrities up to seven figures just to stand next to her for 10 minutes. Kamala spent a few weeks living like the girl in the Beach Boys song about the T-bird, because Kamala had fun, fun, fun till the voters took her chances away.
BIGGEST WASTE OF HALF A MILLION DOLLARS … Goes again to Kamala Harris for paying this sum to race grifter Al Sharpton who did an “interview” with her and did not ask her any hard questions. For Kamala, a hard question would be “What are your policies?” or “Is your grandmother actually Black?”
BIGGEST COVERUP IN AMERICAN HISTORY … That honor goes to the mainstream media for covering up the mental decline, physical deterioration, and general decrepitude of Joe Biden. This award can be partly shared with the people of the Biden regime, who were willing to lie, cheat, and steal to keep the dead guy in office. While citizen journalists and many right-leaning news sources and commentators had observed signs of Biden’s mental impairment even prior to 2020, the mainstream media did not notice a thing until late in 2024 when The Wall Street Journal mentioned, hey, there’s something wrong with Joe Biden. Now they should have been tipped off when Robert Hur investigated the Biden crime of stealing classified documents. Hur wrote in his findings that Biden was guilty of stealing top-secret information and should be tried in a court of law for a crime, but Biden was incompetent to stand trial. However, Democrats thought he was competent to have the nuclear codes. For Biden’s part, I am not sure how much of this was willful deception and how much was delusion, but ultimately it does not matter. The mass media allowed a brain-dead man to sit in the White House for four years. However, they’re willing to admit now that maybe Biden has a little bit of a memory problem.
BIGGEST LIAR OF 2024 … This goes to Karine Jean-Pierre, the hapless mop-headed White House press secretary, who once proudly announced she was the first Haitian lesbian to be a press secretary. That may have been the only time in her official capacity that she ever told the truth. She’s a perennial favorite for this title of liar of the year. Her best lie in 2024 was when she assured the press corps that not only was Biden fit as a fiddle and mentally sharp, she and the rest of the staff had trouble keeping up with him. He ran circles around them! It’s a wonder she could say these things without laughing out loud. I often wonder how Biden’s staff could look at each other—say passing in a hallway or making eye contact during some event—and not just burst out laughing.
MOST SATISFYING IMPLOSION OF 2024 … Goes to the destruction and collapse of the mainstream media. After years and years of lying to the American people. CNN has reached the absolute nadir of viewers in its existence. We can’t keep track of all of the “journalists” at CNN, MSNBC, and other commie outlets who have lost their jobs or who have taken massive pay cuts. In the “prime time” slot, CNN had a recent record low of 77,000 viewers. Now that was a record, they generally do a little better. But people are turning them off in droves. Just for comparison, more people watch Dan Bongino’s podcast (if you count live viewers plus the “on demand” viewers) than CNN. Bongino regularly hits over 100,000 live streamers and 1M who view the show on demand.
MOST IRRELEVANT PERSON OF 2024 … That has to be the hapless wanna-be Madame President, Hillary Rodham Clinton. She still pokes her head out of her Chappaqua burrow from time to time to issue a tweet or make some political point (or predict how many weeks of winter are left), but it is now to the point that nobody recognizes her. She’ll never see the inside of the White House again unless she buys a ticket for the tour, and most of us Americans are grateful.
THE TRUMP ISN’T HITLER AWARD …. Goes first to Joe Scarborough and Mika Brzezinski of Morning Joe who have over and over screamed that Trump is Hitler, only to grovel to get an invitation to Mar-A-Lago where they could ask Hitler, I mean President Trump, for a “reset.” Who “resets” with Hitler? But this award also goes to the mainstream media clowns who are saying that Trump is subservient to Elon Musk, after having assured us that Trump is Hitler. The media is painting Elon as president with Trump his willing lackey. Hitler would not have named somebody to his inner circle and then become submissive to them. So is Trump Hitler or were you lying? You lefty guys lie so much, you’d think you’d be good at it.
GREATEST MIRACLE OF 2024 … That has to be the Butler, Pennsylvania head turn of soon-to-be President Donald Trump. Trump narrowly escaped death on live television and stood up after the shooting to raise his fist in the air and shout, “Fight! Fight! Fight!” This may have been the coolest political moment in history, but it was actually a miracle. America was gifted the present of seeing an actual miracle on television. Still, some people deny it. But there is no way to explain what happened in my mind except divine protection.
STUPIDEST PERSON IN CONGRESS … This is a newcomer. The award goes to Jasmine Crockett, a Democrat who represents a poor and crime-riddled area around Dallas, Texas. Jasmine has a law degree and I have actually heard her speak in a normal, educated voice in reasonable tones and cadence. But in Congress, she flails her arms, jumps up and down out of her seat, shouts, swears, and adopts a heavy “ghetto” accent. I think people around her should wear a raincoat because she gets so excited I bet she spits when she talks. She body-shamed Margery Taylor Greene by saying Greene had a “bleach blonde, bad built, butch body” and she even designed merch around this slogan. (I don’t think it sold.) It’s also funny since she is allegedly pro gay rights and anti body shaming, but the worst insult she could think of was to say Greene had a “butch body.” (By the way, her fight with Greene was precipitated by Greene who commented about Crockett’s outsized false eyelashes … which is an accurate observation. Crockett is a woman who dresses like a drag queen.) Jasmine can behave herself at times, but she gets super excited when the camera is on her. She likes to “axe questions” by posing a question and then screaming at the person before they can answer it, often using vulgar language. Her real problem is that she hates Trump so much, this animosity extends to her hatred for the majority of her fellow Americans. She called Republicans in Congress a—holes. She recently said Tom Homan, who may well become our next border czar, was “in over his head.”
LEAST VALUABLE MEMBER OF CONGRESS … This honor goes to Representative Kay Granger, another Texas lunatic, but this time one from the Republican side of Congress. Granger pulled a Pete Buttigieg by simply not showing up for work for a prolonged period of time. With Buttigieg, he came back after a couple of months making the lame excuse of being on an unannounced paternity leave. Granger, on the other hand, was in a memory care facility. Apparently, she was put into a retirement home, didn’t show up for work for six months, and nobody missed her. Did they keep sending her paychecks? If I didn’t show up for my job for six months, I’d like to think someone might have noticed.
BEST PSYOP OF 2024 … That has to go to the ongoing PSYOP of the drones flying all over the country. Notice that as soon as news spread on social media that these drones were a PSYOP, they sort of stopped? Yeah, that’s not suspicious at all.
LEAST-KNOWN SCANDAL FACING THE BRITISH ROYAL FAMILY … Sure they have a current king and a future queen battling cancer and there is the perpetual prodigal Randy Andy hobnobbing with a Chinese spy … but the real scandal brewing is under wraps. It has to do with Harry and Meghan’s children. Harry and Meghan married in May 2018 when she was 36 and rumor has it she had had a hysterectomy. (The medical history of the royal family is kept top secret—you’d have better chances of finding the Ark of the Covenant than Meghan’s medical records.) They had their first child in 2019 (Archie) and their second (Lilibet) in 2021. There are several reasons to wonder if Archie and Lilibet are the real children of Harry and Meghan, but that’s another story for another day. This may seem trivial to us, but for the United Kingdom this is serious stuff. I think this question is going to percolate to the top in 2025. (If Archie and/or Lilibet are adopted that poses no problem except it would put them out of the line of succession and it opens up questions as to why Harry and Meghan would not have disclosed this earlier.)
LISTS WE STILL HAVEN’T SEEN … This is a tie, going to the Epstein flight logs and also new this year to the Diddy videos. Despite assurances of transparency in government and law enforcement efforts and all the rest of that nonsense, you have a better chance of seeing a unicorn than this evidence.
MOST LUDICROUS UNSOLVED CRIME … The most ludicrous unsolved crime of 2024 is the cocaine that was dropped off at the White House, sort of like the drug-dealer version of Door Dash. The cocaine was found in a small plastic bag, which is a really good surface for lifting fingerprints. Not only that, the cocaine was delivered to the most secure building on earth and one that assuredly has working video cameras. Yet the Secret Service is mystified and has no clue.
BEST CRAZY RFK JR STORY … Well, this is a tough one since RFK Jr. has a unique knack for surprising us with unexpected stories. One good story is involves the brain worm. I mean, who saw that coming? And then there’s the dead bear in Central Park. We’re going to go with the dead bear. Apparently, RFK Jr. found a dead bear as roadkill on a highway, and, for some reason, he stopped and put the dead cub in the trunk of his vehicle. Later that day he remembered he had a dead baby bear in the vehicle, which was going to be a problem since he had to go to the airport and he was planning on utilizing the long-term parking garage. So he drove to Central Park in New York and put the dead bear under a bush and then “staged” a scene with a bicycle to make it look like a bicycle ran into a bear cub in Central Park. And the craziest part of this story is that RFK Jr. admitted it.
LUCKIEST STOCK PICKER IN THE WHOLE WIDE WORLD … This title always goes to Nancy Pelosi, who is fighting hard to keep insider trading legal, at least for Congress. It is estimated that in 2023, she and her husband Paul made $43M in the stock market alone. In 2024, the verdict isn’t in yet but she’s on track for a 91% return on investment. By the way, if you want to buy what Nancy’s buying, think Palo Alto Networks. (You can search online to find the stock positions that Nancy and Paul Pelosi hold. Then you can just buy what they’re buying! Note: this isn’t financial advice. But it would be good financial advice, if it were actually financial advice.)
STUPIDEST FAKE STORY OF THE MAINSTREAM MEDIA … After the debacle that was the Harris campaign and the subsequent collapse of the Democrat machine, social media is floating these strange posts (no doubt by the influencers paid by the leftists) that the next Presidential ticket for 2028 is going to be Kamala Harris as President and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortes as vice president. Please let that be true, please let that be true, please let that be true.
WEIRDEST MARRIAGE OF 2024 … The prize here goes to Alexander Soros, the son of billionaire villain George Soros, who took as his bride Huma Abedin. Huma had previously been married to that creepy guy Anthony Weiner (who went to jail) and then was a close confidante and maybe more to Hillary Clinton (who didn’t go to jail but should have). Huma is 47, and Alexander is 38. Now Huma is Mrs. Soros. That makes her new married name Huma Soros. Sounds like a character in Jurassic Park.
MOST ANNOYING NEW TERM … That goes to “cheap fakes,” the term made up by the Biden regime and used often by Karine Jean-Pierre to explain weird videos showing an incompetent Biden. More accurate terminology would be to call these gaffe reels “actual video.”
MOST RIDICULOUS AND UNDESERVED AWARD GIVEN TO A WOMAN LIKELY TO FACE CRIMINAL CHARGES IN 2024 … That goes to Liz Cheney who won the “Politician of the Year” award in November 2024. The award comes from lefty outlet The Hill and it was given to her for taking a stand against Donald Trump. In 2025, she’s going to take the stand again, and this will be for suborning perjury at the J6 Select Committee hearings.
THE ILLEGALLY INSTALLED GOVERNOR MOST LIKELY TO GO TO PRISON IN 2025 … That goes to Arizona’s one-woman crime spree and governor, Katie Hobbs. Hobbs gets elected in Arizona even when nobody votes for her. She has made Arizona a sanctuary state and says she will resist any efforts to deport illegal aliens. I guess she figures if she can steal an election, she can evade the law in other areas as well.
MOST RIDICULOUS LAWFARE BY STUPID LAWYERS AGAINST A POLITICAL ADVERSARY … This is a three-way tie. It goes to Leticia James and Alvin Bragg (co-winners in New York), Fani Willis (Atlanta), and Jack Smith (Florida). James campaigned on the platform that she would “get Trump” without specifying any crime and the convoluted 34 felonies case is the most ridiculous case ever presented. It won’t hold up on appeal because the crime consists of 34 bookkeeping errors that are elevated to felonies because they were done to advance a felony crime, which the suit has never named. It’s like charging you for a felony for double parking because you double-parked in furtherance of committing a felony, but the felony is never specified. Meanwhile, Black Panther princess Fani Willis bilked Georgia taxpayers out of over a million bucks (set aside to clear up court backlogs caused by COVID) to pay her married boyfriend Nathan Wade and go on some luxury cruises and vacays. She also met with the White House in advance of the trial. Watch it turn out that she and Kamala were a couple of gal-pals going to get Trump. Meanwhile, Jack Smith was never even appointed prosecutor, he’s just some rando with a grudge. Here’s a hint, Democrats. If you want to do lawfare, get an actual case. Don’t just make stuff up.
MOST UNSOLVED OF ALL UNSOLVED MYSTERIES … Who planted the pipe bomb at the Democrat National Convention headquarters in D.C. back on January 6, 2021? The authorities have video. It was witnessed. Kamala was inside the building at the time. You’d think it would be of national interest since the Vice President Elect was nearly blown to bits. It’s a mystery wrapped in an enigma wrapped in a scandal. (Here’s a hint: the feds planted it and now they’re having trouble explaining it away. They’re hoping we just forget, not realizing that our party’s symbol is the elephant, the animal that allegedly never forgets.)
BEST THING TO WATCH … Get a Rumble account and start watching America’s Untold Stories with Eric Hunley and Mark Groubert. They produce two series of shows—on Tuesday, it’s usually thematic and based on American history such as the JFK assassination or Watergate. On Friday, it’s more of a long conversation about the news of the week. Very great stuff and laugh-out-loud funny. You can catch it on YouTube, too, but Rumble lets you see the whole show.
THINGS JIMMY CARTER GOT WRONG … While everyone is eulogizing the recently deceased James Earl Carter as being such a wonderful person, a great president, and a “decent” human being, let me remind you we are still cleaning up the messes he made 40 years ago. You know why Iran is powerful and a hub for terrorist activity? Carter’s foreign policy failed to foresee the overthrow of the Shah and failed to work positively to promote democracy, instead letting the country fall into terrorist hands. Iran used to be an ally and a very modern country. We had hostages during the Carter presidency—for over 400 days, Americans were held hostage in Iran while Jimmy Carter walked around being “decent” and “honorable” (and weak and clueless). We built the Panama Canal for commercial and strategic reasons and we had worked out terms with Panama. But Jimmy Carter sold it back to Panama and gave them total control. For $1. What a shrewd man! And you like our public schools? Well, Jimmy Carter is the guy who set up the Department of Education (in violation of the U.S. Constitution but to promote big government) and oversaw the precipitous decline of American students’ ability to read or do math. There was also staggering inflation under Carter and gas lines as America faced shortages of petroleum products, including gasoline. Back in those days, you had to check your license plate to buy gas—you could only buy gas on even days if your plate ended in an even number and even then, you faced lines of many hours. Jimmy Carter was one of the worst presidents ever to disgrace the White House.
MOST UNLIKELY, ENTERTAINING, AND YET COMPLETELY UNIMPORTANT EVENT THAT HAPPENED IN 2024 … The most astonishing thing that happened in 2024 is that Ben Shapiro—yes, that Ben Shapiro—hit the Billboard charts for his performance doing a rap song called Facts with Tom MacDonald. It was a joke, he didn’t stay at the top of the charts long, and he’s clearly a one-hit wonder in the rap world… but Facts are facts. Some commentators said the rap song was “cringy.” That should get the “d’uh” of the year award. It was supposed to be cringy.
Feel free to add your own best/worst/weirdest events of 2024 in the comments. Happy New Year!
I loved this !! I too have witnessed Ms Crockett go from talking like she’s having tea with the queen and a guest on Jerry Springer !!😂
I will be glad to be rid of the mop head with her binder full of nothing !
The three way tie breaker (imo) has to go to Fani for giving us so much material to laugh at. Backwards dress on the stand moment was a highlight.
Jimmy Carter was an awful president. However his humanitarian work afterwards helped his reputation immensely.
Bold prediction here, but Harris never appears on another presidential ballot.
MSM-good riddance.
Ben Shapiro rap was fantastic.
I should follow Nancy’s stock strategy !
Goodbye from office forever Biden !
Hope we find out about the drones, Epstein, and Diddy (although I don’t really care to see Diddy’s videos. They can let someone else do it and report back.
Idk about Megan and Harry’s kids ?? Nothing would surprise me.
Huma Sorros-Jurassic Park- that is funny !
Thank you for your continued enlightening information.
"...Huma Soros. Sounds like a character in Jurassic Park."
This made me laugh out loud -- more than once!
Keep it coming, Ricochet Cafe. Happy 2025.
