Schilling Vetoed by Baseball Hall of Fame Voters
Baseball Hall of Fame voters chose not to elect anyone this year. Most agree Curt Schilling easily qualifies as a pitcher but his politics cancelled him out.
And here’s what Schilling had to say about that.
You are talking about a group of people who are 85% white and 90% male — and they are lecturing me on diversity and racism.
Executive Order White House Cancel Culture
Legislation is out and executive orders are in. For example, “Pen and a Phone” President Obama signed 19 executive orders in his first 12 days.

Senate Trial of a Former President
Mitch McConnell is ok with a Senate trial for Former President Trump. On Monday the House delivered to the Senate one article of impeachment for incitement of insurrection. Or “erection” if you’re Chuck Schumer.
So, the Senate trial of Donald Trump is on. Again. But this time Trump isn’t the president. And the purpose of a Senate trial is to remove the president. At least that’s what my copy of the constitution says. It also says that when the President is tried, the Chief Justice presides. But the presiding geezer looks suspiciously like Pat Leahy. Maybe that’s because the president isn’t being tried. I’m no constitutional scholar, I just shoot the wounded. But, as Former President Trump likes to say, we’ll see.
Judgment in Cases of Impeachment shall not extend further than to removal from Office, and disqualification to hold and enjoy any Office of honor, Trust or Profit under the The United States: But the Party convicted shall nevertheless be liable and subject to Indictment, Trial, Judgment and Punishment, according to Law.

The curtain dropped on the Trump Show January 20. And Donald Trump caught the last Air Force One flight out to Mar-A-Lago.
Later that day President Biden gave an inaugural speech about unity before 25,000 occupying National Guard troops.
That evening rioters in Portland celebrated by attacking Democratic Headquarters.
Trump Dumped on His Way out the Door
The U.S. House of Representatives voted to dump Trump on his way out the door. Ten Republicans joined all the Democrats in a 232 – 197 vote to impeach the president for “inciting insurrection.”
