A clip from HBO’s Real Time with Bill Maher where he talks about how America isn’t just losing to China, but it has lost. I’ve been thinking this for quite a while, but the years lost to Trump idiocy solidified it. We’ll look back and see that's when China overcame America as the world’s dominant force.
This episode features a clip from Bill Hicks’ classic Rant in E-Minor (Spotify, Amazon), recorded in the early 1990s, where he talks in the most accurate way possible about the recently deceased Rush Limbaugh (finally). Needless to say, this clip is not appropriate for children. Am I dancing on the grave of a newly dead person? Perhaps. But I’m less celebrating his death than mourning his life. 💁🏼♂️

This episode features a clip from a recent Closer Look segment on NBC’s Late Night with Seth Meyers about the hopeless folly of Democratic leaders thinking there’s some post-Trump scenario where the Republican Party becomes sane and full of honest brokers who can be negotiated with like in the olden days. Eye roll emoji.
This episode features a clip from Saturday Night Live’s Weekend Update where Colin and Michael talk about the continuing slow-motion embarrassment of Trump’s “lawyers” trying to overturn the election and stuff. Jesus am I counting the days that I never have to hear anything about this sad man and all of his incompetent grifters.
