And another day of Mitch being Mitch (and that ain’t ever gonna change), of Trump being Trump (and that just gets worse every day), and the discovery of a space ‘snowman’ comes to a close:

“The Universe is under no obligation to make sense to you.” -- Neil deGrasse Tyson

Incoming House Speaker Nancy Pelosi on status of negotiations to reopen government: "Tomorrow we will bring to the floor legislation that will open up government. It will be based on actions taken by the Republican Senate." However, McConnell said he will not put the measure before the Senate because Trump won’t sign it. The shutdown is all on Trump and Republicans. Don’t forget it.

Trump has a 41.3% approval rating. That says more about all of you that still support this poor excuse of a human being. No, it doesn’t say anything good about you.

“I think I would have been a good general, but who knows.” -- Donald Trump. How does one become a general by getting 5 deferments? You are a waste of flesh.

Please everyone, don’t forget how horrible a person Mitt Romney is. Regardless of the words he said today.

Israel has announced plans to "worsen" conditions for Palestinian prisoners in Israeli jails.

This Texas county just swore in 17 black female judges.

Ohio doctor fired for anti-Semitic tweets, including threats to give Jews "the wrong meds". Because people like her exist in the world is why the world oftentimes sucks.

As crowdfunding for medical expenses has become common, researchers have found thousands of campaigns raising millions of dollars for treatments that aren't backed by science. But for some reason a large portion of Americans don’t give a shit about science.

A 6-year-old girl is recovering from a gunshot wound to the head after she was struck by a stranger’s stray bullet as the clock struck midnight on New Year’s Eve, according to authorities. Hmmm, I’m betting the person who shot the gun wasn’t using it to actually defend their life or property. You know, one of those “responsible” gun owners we hear so much about.

Lawmakers Hope New House Day Care Will Keep Staff On Capitol Hill.

US Catholic bishops to pray over clergy sexual abuse scandal.

Nasa's New Horizons: 'Snowman' shape of distant Ultima Thule revealed. That’s pretty cool looking.

RIP Daryl Dragon (The Captain of The Captain and Tennille). He was 76.

“Yeah we all shine on, like the moon, and the stars, and the sun.” -- John Lennon

Life’s short. Live, love, create, and help others.

Until next time, my friends. Good night.
