Senator Adam Schiff, a DC swamp creature of incredible corruption and manipulative intent, appears with ABC George Stephanopoulos who just agreed to settle a lawsuit by paying Donald Trump $15 million, and together they commiserate about the best way for the Deep State and media to align in resistance to President Trump.
While it can be annoying to watch the professional gaslighting of Adam Schiff, it is also possible to see what angles he will take in his next attack vector simply by listening to where his priorities are focused. As the conversation moves to DNI nominee Tulsi Gabbard (03:05), you see the gaze of Schiff intensify in preparation to defend the Intelligence Community. WATCH:
.
Schiff is very concerned about Tulsi Gabbard being in the same office space as the “six ways from Sunday” group. Very concerned.

So many people have seemingly forgotten that Mitt Romney was the 20212 Republican presidential nominee. He was crushed by Barack Obama despite record turnout by republican voters who held their nose, yet again, one last time and voted for the last of the GOP ‘next in line’ crew.
As he exits a career in politics, Mitt Romney reflects upon his professional legacy of ‘lightly held stances’ and expert level graciousness in losing; he’s had lots of practice. As Mitt Romney concedes the Republican party to the MAGA movement, this is somewhat of a reflective moment. WATCH:

The discussion continues around the subject of Joe Biden issuing preemptive pardons to politicians and government officials who previously used the power of their office/position to target President Donald Trump.
With the overwhelming support of the American public with him, President Trump now enters office having won against all of the Deep State actors, DC politicians and ideological bureaucrats inside the agencies. Joe Biden is considering preemptive pardons for their behavior in order to protect them from retaliation by President Trump.
In this segment, Bernie Sanders is apoplectic at the possibility that President Trump might seek to investigate the people who investigated and targeted him. “You do not arrest elected officials who disagree with you,” Senator Sanders decries; seemingly oblivious to the mugshot of President Donald Trump who was an elected official arrested for opposing the Obama/Biden/Clinton regime.

Incoming national security adviser Michael Waltz talks to Face the Nation with dramatic acting Margaret Brennan. The first part of the interview discusses drones, fears and “gaps in our security” according to Waltz.
Within the interview Brennan questions Waltz about Hungarian leader Viktor Orbán personally meeting with President Trump and carrying a potential message from Russian President Vladimir Putin. Waltz notes that Orban “clearly has a good relationship” with President Trump and that will be key to ending the war in Ukraine. WATCH:
As National Security Advisor, Waltz likely won’t last a year. “Gaps in our capabilities,” is DC intel codespeak for more rules, regulations, control mechanisms and anti-freedom national security legislation is needed.
My Spidey sense indicates a CNN gig in his future. Waltz just gives off that ‘he will believe everything the IC tells him’ vibe.
Mike Waltz is married to Julia Nesheiwat, the sister of Surgeon General nominee Janette Nesheiwat.
Julia, who -like all other people who work in DC silos- has never taken a married name. Julia Nesheiwat was born in Carmel, New York, in 1975 to Jordanian Christian immigrants and raised in Umatilla, Florida. She has a BA from Stetson University, an MA from Georgetown, and a PhD from Tokyo Tech.
Julia Nesheiwat became a military intelligence officer. She received the Bronze Star Medal during Operation Enduring Freedom in Iraq. She departed the military as captain. Julia Nesheiwat served in several U.S. administrations. Under George W. Bush, Barack Obama, and Donald Trump, she held senior national security and economic policy positions. Her most notable role was as Trump’s 10th Homeland Security Advisor from 2020 to 2021. Her Bush administration posts included State Department seniority and Office of the Director of National Intelligence Policy Chief.
Suffice to say their bedroom conversations are likely Intel Community shop talk.
While it’s interesting that Congressman Mike Waltz was selected to be President Trump’s National Security Advisor, it’s actually Julia Nesheiwat that carries the curriculum vitae that seemingly qualifies her for the job.
This will be an interesting dynamic to watch unfold.

Devin Nunes appeared on Fox News with Maria Bartiromo today to discuss Kash Patel as the possible FBI Director and the new role for himself just outlined by President Trump. {Direct Rumble Link}
Devin Nunes will be chairman of the President’s Advisory Board on Intelligence, and he describes his role as recognizing, researching and filtering out the political intelligence products. Exactly as we suspected. WATCH:
Nunes noted some declassification of prior evidence will be considered and reviewed.
♦ Intel Community Inspector General Michael Atkinson, former counsel to DOJ-NSD Head Mary McCord during the construct of the Carter Page FISA application, testified to a closed session of the House impeachment committee about the CIA whistleblower, the connection to Alexander Vindman and the construct of why Atkinson changed the rules of the CIA to permit anonymous whistleblowers.
That transcript of Atkinson’s testimony was sealed and classified by Adam Schiff. At the time of his testimony, Mary McCord was working for the House impeachment committee.
Start by locating and releasing that transcript. START THERE! It’s a great first document to release.
The crowds asked John the Baptist, “What should we do?” He said to them in reply, “Whoever has two cloaks should share with the person who has none. And whoever has food should do likewise.” Even tax collectors came to be baptized and they said to him, “Teacher, what should we do?” He answered them, “Stop collecting more than what is prescribed.” Soldiers also asked him, “And what is it that we should do?” He told them, “Do not practice extortion, do not falsely accuse anyone, and be satisfied with your wages.”
Now the people were filled with expectation, and all were asking in their hearts whether John might be the Christ. John answered them all, saying, “I am baptizing you with water, but one mightier than I is coming. I am not worthy to loosen the thongs of his sandals. He will baptize you with the Holy Spirit and fire. His winnowing fan is in his hand to clear his threshing floor and to gather the wheat into his barn, but the chaff he will burn with unquenchable fire.” Exhorting them in many other ways, he preached good news to the people.

Time to pull out the faded and stained old handwritten recipes or notes, favorite cookbooks, and share with friends who really want to offer our best dishes to family and friends for Christmas. This time of year I especially try to remember the two women who taught me to cook, and to love cooking. My husband’s paternal grandmother, and his mother taught me with encouragement, kindness, joy and pride in the making of simple meals for big families. They taught me how to make good, nourishing meals from simple, cheap ingredients. They taught me to cook with love. I was a really slow student, but fortunately God gave me such good teachers that even I learned to cook well. Eventually.
Please share old family favorites, new discoveries, and memories, of course. I especially love it when we get recipes from different parts of the country, and our international readers. Zurich Mike, where are you? Being, as we say here in the South, of a certain age, I am steeped in old Southern recipes and cooking methods, but I have loved getting new ideas and recipes from our readers in Texas and Louisiana who do meals with boldness and heat, our coastal friends who share the best seafood recipes, our Northern friends who give us so many good stew and roast and vegetables recipes. Midwesterners just seem to do such a great job with family meals and especially winter vegetables, and no telling what you might get from out west and the West Coast, but the ideas and recipes are always wonderful.
I have created this site to help people have fun in the kitchen. I write about enjoying life both in and out of my kitchen. Life is short! Make the most of it and enjoy!
