Hollywood handed its highest honor last night to what John Nolte at Breitbart calls an inverted remake of Birth of a Nation — a film Chuck Frank says doesn't even try to hide the target it puts on the back of every Christian who celebrates Christmas. Six Oscars. Best Picture. Best Director. And it closes with a Tom Petty classic while DiCaprio's daughter runs off to join the Antifa equivalent and her dad stares at an iPhone looking confused. Chuck has a word for what the Academy just told America. It's not pastoral.

Meanwhile, an estimated 6.75 billion gallons of treated drinking water are hemorrhaging through America's crumbling pipes every single day — and 75% of U.S. city officials already admit water risk will outpace every other infrastructure threat. Engineers gave our water system a C-minus. Politicians have known for over a decade. Cuba's electrical grid went completely dark as Trump tells Bloomberg he's coming for the island — after Iran. In New York City, a $1.9 billion no-bid contract puts homeless residents in hotels at $330 a night for three years, and Chuck has a name for what that looks like. Plus: the first robot arrest in recorded history. And Chuck closes today with a prayer written by the Father of our Country himself.
