2022 Resolutions
A new year is upon us, and most folks make resolutions. Some are kept, but many are abandoned or forgotten after making the solemn affirmations on New Year’s Day. With that in mind, here’s some resolutions that ought to be made and kept throughout 2022 and beyond.
The mainstream media should vow to report the news and not their views. How refreshing it would be to get honest reportage without the hidden agenda. What if Hunter Biden got the same scrutiny that Donald Trump Jr. got? Can you imagine how CNN’s ratings would soar if it covered both sides of the political spectrum fairly, and ceased being the primary outlet of leftist progressive propaganda? The same goes for most broadcast outlets like ABC, CBS or NBC and its looney stepchild, MSNBC. The newspapers are just as guilty, but over time they will disappear like saber toothed tigers in a tarpit. Think of the trees that will be saved.
Politicians should resolve to make promises they can keep. Remember when Joe was campaigning to be President and said he was going to end Covid because too many deaths had occurred during Trump’s administration? Elect me he said, “I’m going to shut down the virus!” More citizens have now died since his inauguration than under Trump. Last week he said in a conference call with state governors, "Look, there is no federal solution, this gets solved at a state level." No one wants Chief Spreading Bull as the leader of the Nation. Pandering for votes, taking advantage of fear to win passage of your agenda or an election is despicable.
But Joe is not the only one who needs to make some resolutions and stick to them. The Vice President might vow to cease her nervous cackle whenever she’s asked a question of national importance. Secondarily, Kamala might stop blaming her current unpopularity on her gender and ethnicity. Considering that she’s “stepped in it” on every major issue since taking office, and that is not the result of her gender and ethnicity. Serious questions deserve serious answers sans cackle, Madame Vice President. Think, don’t cackle before you opine, should be your prime directive.
Moving on to the most visible member of the current regime, White House Press Secretary and Minister of Propaganda, Jen Psaki, should pledge not to get any more “Pinocchio” awards from the Washington Post. The disingenuous spin that the Nation gets from her in the daily briefing must end. Last year, Jen put out so much bologna that a barrel mustard couldn’t make it palatable.
It would be great to know that the Secretary of State Anthony Blinken has resolved to cancel his Spotify playlist featuring Taylor Swift. Can anyone imagine previous holders of this prestigious office, Condoleezza Rice, Henry Kissinger or even Madeline Albright doing something this immature and foolish? Grow up Tony.
How about the Department of Justice make a promise to prosecute the summer rioters of 2020 with the same gusto and zeal they have pursued the January 6th Capitol rioters? (Note – January 6th was not an insurrection, which as legally defined, is an armed and organized uprising. It was a riot.) Attorney General Merrick Garland could lead the charge by making a public commitment to equal justice and punishment for all rioters. Maybe Merrick could also resolve that local law enforcement needs to be funded and supported to the max.
Of course, no list of resolutions would be complete without including that bubble headed bartender from the Bronx, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (AOC). She should take a solemn oath to act like a member of Congress instead of a dim-witted tweeter. Photographed in Miami over the holiday, living “La Dolce Vita” with her boyfriend, while her constituents were masked up and freezing, she lashed out regarding the widely seen picture with the following tweet.
"If Republicans are mad they can’t date me they can just say that instead of projecting their sexual frustrations onto my boyfriend’s feet. Ya creepy weirdos." She added, "It’s starting to get old ignoring the very obvious, strange, and deranged sexual frustrations that underpin the Republican fixation on me….” Simmer down Sandy, you’re not that hot.
Finally, in the spirit of fairness, Former President Donald Trump should end all the dialog about the 2020 election results. Most non-brain-dead Americans know that there were shenanigans that gave us the current regime. Instead, talk about how cheap gasoline was when we were energy independent or the absence of runaway inflation on your watch or getting a vaccine for the pandemic in record time or how secure the Southern Border was or how Putin and Xi weren’t pushing us around when you were in charge.
