Frank Chow: Asian- American Political Pundit

 Last day of work for the year. Blogging will be sporadic or consistent, who knows? Depends on what vile and terrible things the Trump administration does. It has been quite a year, and I'm still not sure he'll make it through the entire term. One thing I know is we won't stop. That counts for something. Nothing pisses off authoritarians more than not submitting. So, no matter what, I'm here. Thanks for the support and for continuing to check in. Time to cuddle with the kiddos.  Here are your highlights: Trump likes killing people. Biden stopped the executions of 37 men; Trump wants to punish them .  US drops plans to deport Chinese whistleblower.   Is the DOJ breaking under pressure? More Epstein files drop . Trump was on Epstein's plane more than reported.  The Empty Suit . Kash Patel undermines the FBI.  The Tariffs hurt Bourbon . Canadians are not messing around.  Some cool news. An ancient Egyptian boat will be assembled in real time at the Grand ...

 Christmas is nearly here. Times are rough, but the girls will still have a lovely holiday. They're lucky to have a family that spoils them. Santa will make it after all. I'm sensing I'll be under the weather this holiday. I woke up with a cough, a dry throat, and a headache. 'Tis the season.  Here are your highlights:  No surprise here. The Epstein files were heavily redacted . Bondi must be held accountable.  Bari Weiss halts 60 Minutes report on deported men to El Salvador.  Great start to her likely short-term at the helm.  Flooding in Cali. Illinois has one of the highest concentrations of data centers. People are starting to notice that, nationwide, it is harmful to the environment .  Vice President JD Vance is a-okay with bigots. A Russian general was killed in a car bomb.  - Ukrainian special forces? Maybe.  I am Frank Chow, and I approved this message. 

We're almost at the end of the year. Still no Epstein files. Yes, today is supposed to be the release of the files. I don't think that's happening. As more pictures are released , there is hardly anything funnier than David Brooks being captured hanging out with Epstein. The guy who literally wrote a "don't bother me with the Epstein files" article. Now, we know David to be a questionable man with his age gap marriage, look it up, it isn't normal, but damn, that photo is hilarious. It goes to show that rich folks knew and didn't care. Those with access knew and didn't care. This should motivate you even more to seek justice for the victims.  Here are your highlights:  China's chip rally . Trump is getting played.  What's a Climate Change? Warm weather is hitting ski resorts .  MTG and the Transphobic Mask is Off . This is why Dems can't capitulate or moderate. Trans rights are human rights.  United Healthcare is awful.  Russia, Russia,...

 There are no words. Trump is truly an embarrassment to our nation.  Here are your highlights:  RFK Jr. and Dr. Oz go after gender-affirming care.  Podcaster discovers an actual FBI job is difficult. Bongino out.   Mike Johnson and Epstein files . What does he know?  Trump Derangement Syndrome is the call from within .  Rural schools are struggling to make up for the loss of grants .  Sudan is in turmoil.   If we had a decent president, this humanitarian crisis would be front and center. But boats.... I am Frank Chow, and I approve this message. 

 I find it funny that Republicans are now fighting in the open about healthcare . It seems Speaker Johnson is losing the reins of his caucus. Obamacare is popular, works, and once you give someone something better, it's tough to take it away, especially from millions of Americans. It's been 15 years, and Republicans haven't come up with a better plan. I say let them fight. Here are your highlights: Tragedy in Australia. The Bondi Beach shooting leads to 15 dead . Antisemitism has no place in a civil society.  Climate Change research is being dismantled . Russ Vought is a sick zealot.  Student loans are about to hit millions . I bet it'll do wonders for the economy.  Venezuela is starting to sound like "WAG THE DOG." The Vanity Fair article with Wiles is funny because they're all such terrible people. And Vance is as weird as we've said.  ICE threw thousands of kids in detention.  I am Frank Chow, and I approve this message. 

 There was a little debate yesterday about going back to Twitter. We must engage the right wing to sway them to our side. I call bullshit. The reason a lot of us left Twitter is that it became a Nazi-fested tool for Elon Musk and his toadies. The environment was and is unbearable. You can't convince those who have been converted to the cult. You can't win them over to be good people. I've sat with that long enough. If someone is willing to vote for Trump, they aren't willing to hear you.  Here are your highlights: Bari Weiss, a known grifter, is also bad at running CBS News .  Pritzker signs the end-of-life bill .  Alligator Alcatraz is an abomination.  DeSantis belongs in jail.  The "Peace" president still has no deal with Ukraine and Russia .  What's a Congress? More boat killings .  The failure of Ford and EVs will be studied for years to come . China continues to make US manufacturers look dumb.  I am Frank Chow, and I approve this messag...

 It's cold! It's so cold, you can't feel your face! We got a bunch of snow this weekend, and then today it's "feels like -2." I hate it here. The Midwest is not my friend. I used to think those who let the weather affect their mood were suckers, but this THIS IS DIFFERENT. I don't know how to function. I don't want to function. I'm here, but I'm without. Okay, enough complaining.  Here are your highlights:  Gunman remains at large . Brown University shooting.  RIP Rob Reiner and his wife Michelle . One of the best storytellers and advocates we had. Tragic.  Someone needs to do a documentary about Fetterman. The dude has lost his mind.   RFK Jr. is the worst appointee of all time.   Something weird is happening in the metals market. Copper soars .  Trump is ruining Christmas .  I am Frank Chow, and I approve this message.
