Here is the latest News
The January 6 committee investigating former President Donald
Trump has released it’s final report and here are some of the findings:
Jan. 6 Committee Chairman Bennie Thompson stated "This
report will provide greater detail about the multistep effort devised and
driven by Donald Trump to overturn the 2020 election and block the transfer of
power. Representative Thompson also stated Building on the information
presented in our hearings earlier this year, we will present new findings about
Trump’s pressure campaign on officials from the local level all the way up to
his Vice President, orchestrated and designed solely to throw out the will of
the voters and keep him in office past the end of his elected term,
Committee Vice Chair Vice Chair Liz Cheney then stated "Among
the most shameful of this committee’s findings was that President Trump sat in
the dining room off the Oval Office watching the violent riot at the Capitol on
television. No man who would behave that way at that moment in time can ever
serve in any position of authority in our nation again," Cheney said at
Monday's meeting. "He is unfit for any office."
The titles to the report definitely sound a little partisan
as Chapter 1 is titles THE BIG LIE, and Chapter 2 is titled I JUST WANT TO FIND
11,780 VOTES, however lets delve into this report
•The Jan. 6 panel released transcripts of the testimony of
former White House aide Cassidy Hutchinson, who had testified that Trump was
aware the mob was armed when he sent it to the Capitol and that he had tried to
join his supporters there.
• The committee’s report alleges that Trump and his inner
circle conducted at least 200 public or private acts of “outreach, pressure, or
condemnation” targeting state and local election officials, as well as state
legislators, to overturn the results between Trump’s loss in November and Jan.
6.
• There were 68 meetings, phone calls or texts aimed at
state or local officials; 18 public remarks targeting them; and 125 social
media posts, the committee says.
• The report also revealed more details about the fake
elector plan, which the committee alleges Trump embraced when it became clear
that state officials in Georgia would not overturn results in their states
& replace Biden electors with Trump electors.
Some interesting news on the report has been issued today
I will definitely keep you posted on any updates and I look
forward to the Former Presidents response to this report as I am sure he will
have quite a lot to say, but I am assuming several media outlets will not print
any of that but you can listen later today or tomorrow to the Delus Report and
I will get you his full response.

Weather
Frigid temperatures continue to grip U.S.
Extremely cold arctic air is expected to plunge southward
and impact much of the country throughf Christmas, December 22–26, according to
forecasters.
Temperatures 40 degrees below average and dangerous
life-threatening wind chills as low as 50 degrees below zero are possible in
the northern Rockies and northern Plains. Sub-zero to single-digit temperatures
are likely across the central Plains, Midwest, Great Lakes, Ohio Valley and
Midsouth.
Well below freezing temperatures will extend into the
Mid-Atlantic, Northeast and as far south as the Gulf Coast through the holiday
weekend. Based on National Weather Service forecasts, every state in the
continental U.S. will experience temperatures below 20 degrees on Christmas
Eve.
Major blizzard to impact holiday travel
Treacherous winter conditions associated with a strong
winter storm will pose challenges for some holiday travelers. Heavy snowfall
and strong winds are expected from the Plains and Midwest into the Great Lakes
Wednesday night, December 21, into Saturday, December 24.
The combination of snow and wind is likely to lead to
blizzard conditions in some areas, making travel dangerous, and at times,
impossible. Rapid and significant temperature decreases associated with this
system raises the potential for the flash freezing of bridges and roadways. The
intensity of the cold would pose a significant danger to anyone who becomes
stranded in blizzard conditions. A series of systems moving onshore in the
Pacific Northwest will lead to several rounds of heavy precipitation this
holiday weekend.

November since 2014.
November 2022 marked the 46th consecutive November and the
455th consecutive month with temperatures above the 20th-century average.
Europe tied 2000 for its third-warmest November on record.
South America, Asia and Africa each had a November that ranked among their 20
warmest on record. North America had a warmer-than-average November, but it did
not rank among its top-20 warmest.
