It’s February 2, also known in the US and Canada as Groundhog Day. And you know what that means: Everybody’s going to make jokes about the movie Groundhog Day, where Bill Murray keeps reliving the same day over and over again. It’s a great movie, but it was released almost 30 years ago. How about some new references, guys? Amirite?
Okay, campers, rise and shine! And don’t forget your booties, ‘cause it’s cold out there today. It’s cold out there every day…

Okay, you get the idea. Sorry.
Sorry!
I don’t know much about the metaverse or about human trafficking, but fortunately I’ve got Silicon Valley to teach me all about it:
“The company said it will maintain its current policy, which prohibits users from offering human smuggling but allows them to solicit smuggling services.”
Oh. Well, that sounds alright, then. You can’t use Faceb— er, you can’t use Meta to offer something that’s illegal, but you can use it to seek out something that’s illegal. That sounds very, very ethical. Good work, Facebook. Or whoever.
I’m old enough to remember the virtual reality craze of the ‘90s, but I didn’t know it would be this depressing.
ANNOUNCEMENT: Today I’m removing my podcast from Spotify, in solidarity with all the other concerned citizens who hate free speech. And I’m even more morally superior than they are, because I never had a podcast in the first place.
Your move, Joe Rogan!
So Whoopi Goldberg got suspended from The View for saying the Holocaust was just “white people doing it to white people.”
I honestly didn’t think ABC would do anything like this, and I don’t want Whoopi to get fired. I just want her to acknowledge that what she said was insanely racist, and that she understands why it was insanely racist. She doesn’t need to be cancelled; she just needs to educate herself and stop spouting bigoted crap.
Out of all the stupid things Whoopi has said in the past 40 years, why is this one a cause for suspension?
But it’ll be worth it if Whoopi takes advantage of her two-week paid vacation to read a book that isn’t about critical race theory. Maybe this one!
Then again:
Whatever the case may be, I say let Whoopi talk. Warning labels are back in fashion, so maybe ABC could slap one on The View: “May Contain Anti-Semitism.”
If ABC does fire Whoopi, I just heard about a very interesting job opening, and she meets the only two stated qualifications…
Plus, that robe is very slimming!
The only thing I care less about than professional football is the name of a professional football team. But this is kinda funny:
#TakeCommand… by capitulating to the woke mob who called you racist for keeping the name you had for almost 90 years. Yeah, that really shows strength and fearlessness. Take command and do what you’re told.
Ladies and gentlemen: higher education.
So this college professor is not a guy you want watching your kids. Just cross Stephen Kershnar off your babysitter list.
This is already following a now-familiar pattern:
I’m a free speech guy, so once again, I don’t want people to be fired for saying things. Even horrible things, like “The Holocaust was just white people killing each other” or “It’s okay to have sex with 12-year-olds.” Maybe this creep should just get an ankle bracelet that alerts the cops whenever he’s within 50 yards of a child.
And one last free speech note: If you like comic books and/or the rule of law, check out Thin Blue Line by Mike Baron, Joseph Arnold, and Jeff Slemons. It’s a story in which the cops are actually the good guys, so the libs are trying to keep Baron from promoting it. You can find out more at the book’s Indiegogo page.
I’m sure I’ll have something to say about the latest backstage drama at CNN tomorrow, but for now:
Happy Hump Day. Groundhog Day. Wednesday. Whatever. I just want to go back to bed.
If you liked what you just scrolled through, please pay for a subscription. Otherwise I don’t get paid, and then you won’t get to read me for much longer.
Speaking of Groundhog Day, another CNN executive hits the bricks this morning, coupled with a totally unbelievable cover story. We're supposed to believe that until now no one in the CNN building knew that unmarried Jeff Zucker was in a relationship with unmarried executive and - gasp - upon learning of such things he was immediately terminated. Uh huh. Okay. Sure. I don't know why exactly they fired him and I don't care, but I do appreciate CNN's unwavering commitment to BS and propaganda. Good fodder for tomorrow's newsletter. Keep up the good work.
Thank you for a laugh out loud moment
