If you're reading this, you survived 2021. If your ready for 2022, so am I!

We still dealing with a pandemic. We have deadly mass shootings. We have highly partisan extremists within our country. We have deadly weather events. We had many things that occurred in 2021 and I am here to do the Yearly Wrap Up!

On behalf of me, La Reyna and every one of our contributors, we say thank you for reading and supporting our blog.

So instead of covering everything that happened in the year 2021, I'm just going to do my list of winners and losers of 2021.

This list will address the year's wins and loses. If you agree with me, visit our poll at the bottom of the post and vote. If you disagree, please leave a comment.

So in the world of politics, community and entertainment, we had winners and losers! I will make the list of political winners and losers I seen in the year 2021.

Losers:

Donald J. Trump - Twice impeached, sued by three states, banned on social media and still being a troll. The 45th President can't let go the notion he lost fair and square. He and many Republicans continue to push the big lie and it's becoming reality as the Supreme Court and state governments are pushing culture wars and restrictions to democracy. From women's rights to voting rights, Republicans are emboldened to keep culture wars going and obstruction to President Joe Biden going. Trump told so many lies they began to stick like glue. He offered no memorable legislation signings. His only achievements were getting Amy Coney Barrett on the Supreme Court and swaying the balance to the right. Trump has changed politics for the worse. He has a terrible grip on the party. I could write a book about it but it's worth noting that the four years of his presidency will be memorable because of his incompetence to govern and the pandemic.

The Trump Supporters who stormed the U.S. Capitol - Folks who decided to go to the Jan. 6 rally and their frustrations to the U.S. Capitol were idiots. They single-handedly cost themselves their jobs, their reputations in the public, and their freedom. They attacked cops, broke into lawmakers offices, and stole property from House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA). Over 1,000 Americans have been caught and there's more to come. Those who managed to flee the U.S. Justice System have left to foreign countries like Belarus, where there's no extradition treaties. The MAGA crowds continue to believe it's a "false flag" and think that the FBI or antifa caused this incident. The QAnon movement is still alive and well. So I've said that social media has indoctrinated millions of people to cause chaos whether online or in the public. We started to know more about the Proud Boys and Oath Keepers thanks to this insurrection.

Kevin McCarthy - The Minority Leader is not effective in getting his party under control. In hopes he could win the gavel if the Republicans do take back the House in 2022, McCarthy has been silent on some of his members acting like fucking children. Jim Jordan, Marjorie Taylor Greene, Louie Gohmert, Ted Poe, Paul Gosar, Lauren Boebert, Madison Cawthorne, Lee Zeldin, Elise Stefanik, Andy Biggs, Jim Banks, Brian Babbin, Thomas Massie, Mo Brooks and Doug Lamborn are constantly agitating. Their white nationalism has made it more dangerous for all member of Congress. Ilhan Omar, Rashida Tlaib, Liz Cheney, Cori Bush, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, Fred Upton, Peter Meijer, Jaime Herrera-Buetler, Adam Kinzinger, Nancy Mace and even Pelosi said that the death threats are off the hook. Pelosi had tried to work with McCarthy in getting things done, but he decided to oppose almost everything done by her and President Biden. Thankfully, the House barely passed a bill to keep the federal government open. McCarthy is a spineless coward. He condemned Trump during the insurrection but days later, he went to groveling to the former president. He threatened to punish the 13 Republicans who supported infrastructure. He allowed Republicans to vote out Cheney, the more conservative member of their leadership for a suck up like slightly conservative Stefanik. He has threatened the Speaker by saying he would love to hit her over the head with the gavel. He appeared on Fox numerous times to trash legislation in House because it's Biden. He is already fearing that Republicans aren't backing his House Speaker bid.

Nina Turner - The controversial leftist thought folks were going to forget her antics during the 2016 and 2020 Democratic primaries and general election. She infamously said that voting for Joe Biden was like eating "half-a-bowl" of shit. Turner, a former Ohio state senator and Bernie Sanders campaign operative tried to run for Ohio's 11th Congressional District after Marcia Fudge left it to join the Biden Administration. She had white leftists and online trolls push her campaign. When a local councilwoman named Shontel Brown entered the race, Turner and her allies started whisper campaigns and attacks against her. They even touted a poll saying Turner was leading against all candidates in the race to replace Fudge. Turner ended up imploding her campaign by leaving the district to protest Amazon's decision to not unionize in Alabama, held a town hall with Killer Mike and Cenk Uygur. The rapper called Jim Clyburn stupid and Turner agreed with it. Clyburn and Hillary Clinton still fumed about Turner's antics endorsed Brown. Brown, who held block parties and local meetups at churches managed to win the Black vote and pulled in the suburban vote. Brown ended up winning and Turner ended up losing. Turner still angry over the loss vows to challenge Brown.

Terry McAuliffe - The race for Virginia governor was a classic shootout between a Democratic ex-governor and a newcomer. The newcomer seized upon the ex-governor's remarks about parent's rights during a pandemic and the allegations of rape by a student in a swing county. McAuliffe made huge mistakes in his bid. He tried to tie Glenn Youngkin to Donald J. Trump. He kept saying Trump more than he said what he plans to do with the state. With Biden's presidential approval sinking, Democrats started to lose faith in voting. Youngkin managed to win the Republicans who voted for Biden. He used the culture war, the members of the Squad and the economic woes as his key to victory. The Republican managed to win without much of the fanfare Trump usually brings to rally. Trump kept his distance and it paid off for Youngkin. McAuliffe blames the Squad, Joe Manchin, Kyrsten Sinema and Biden for his loss. He counted on Democrats being united in passing the infrastructure package. They failed to do so in the final weeks of the campaign.

India B. Walton - The Democratic nominee for Buffalo mayor was a democratic socialist. Her surprise victory had forced the incumbent Bryon Brown to run as an independent and do a write-in campaign to defeat her. Walton, like Nina Turner found herself on the wrong side of the tracks. Walton had her past encounters used against her. Her attacks on the city council of Buffalo also made her more of a hot head than a compassionate leader. She vowed to defund the Buffalo Police. That didn't sit well with Black and Hispanic voters. She didn't mention much about the U.S.-Canadian partnership Buffalo shares with the Niagara region. She also left the city to campaign for Turner who already found herself in the crosshairs of failure. Walton finally conceded but left the race bitter. She called upon the Democratic Party to remove Brown from his leadership role. The Democrats ignored her. They feared that the tag of "socialist" which Republicans often used will stick to the upcoming Democratic nominee in the New York governor's race.

Steve Bannon - The white nationalist who worked briefly with the Trump administration is facing federal charges for refusing to appear at a House Committee in regards of the Insurrection. Bannon who was pardoned by Trump in early 2021, was involved in the planning of the Stop The Steal Rally. He literally told Americans on his War Room: Pandemic podcast that it's going to be wild and violent. The former Breitbart CEO has been sued by many, driven out by many and also faces state and federal investigations against him. He has pushed misinformation about the U.S. election. Bannon continues his vows to violently overthrow Biden. Bannon's antics are considered a part of the FBI's warnings against domestic terrorism. He along with Roger Stone, L. Linn Wood, Sidney Powell, Sean "Softball" Hannity, Buck Sexton, Clay Travis, Tucker Carlson, Laura Ingraham and Mark Levin have stroked white nationalism on television, radio and social media.

Roger Stone - Trump's best advisor to cheating and election mischief was pardoned in 2020. Since his pardon, he has faced state charges, lawsuits and potential federal charges for his refusal to appear at the House Committee in regards to the insurrection. Since Gavin McInnes is facing a possible deportation for his role in creating the Proud Boys, he left the group but secretly cheers them on. Stone, an opportunist continues to host Proud Boys and Oath Keepers. He continues to say that investigations against him, Trump and others are a witch hunt and he's still got that awful tattoo of Richard Nixon on his back. Stone has been considered a key figure in orchestrating the Stop The Steal Rally with Ali Alexander and Jenna Ellis. 

Alex Jones - American talk radio host and conspiracy theorist found himself in more trouble than he bargained for. He was banned from social media, deplatformed and shut out from Google. Alex Jones was sued by his wife, the families of Sandy Hook and the U.S. government. Each of these incidents left him without money. He's literally broke. But it hasn't stopped him. He talked about revolution on Jan. 6 and he said that he need patriots to stop tyranny. They heard the call and came to Washington, DC to listen to Donald J. Trump. They ended up leaving the former president's rally to head to the Capitol. They ended up attacking police and breaking into the Capitol. Now the Congress wants him to talk and he's so far refusing. He may soon end up joining Bannon in federal time out.

Benjamin Netanyahu - The longest running Prime Minister of Israel was ousted. He faces trial for corruption and he's been very instrumental in destroying democracy here in the United States as well as Israel. Israel successfully influenced American politics by attacking critics of its policies involving the West Bank and Gaza Strip. During the tension between Israel and the Hamas governments, Biden took the side of Israel. Even with human rights abuse and possible war crimes, Netanyahu managed to sway public opinion. However, folks over in Israel were tired of his bullshit. They voted him out and placed another far-right politician. Netanyahu also faced the wrath of Trump. The former president allegedly said Netanyahu, "had shit for brains" for congratulating Joe Biden and Kamala Harris. Trump felt betrayed by Netanyahu. He was hoping that Netanyahu would not acknowledge Biden as the legitimate winner of the 2020 election. Most world leaders hate Netanyahu. He is ranked very low among world leaders. Even Vladimir Putin is more popular than Netanyahu. The United Nations and International Criminal Court want Netanyahu on the docket for allegedly using military force on schools and shelters in the Gaza Strip. There's been constant reports about Israeli troops and police using brutal tactics on Palestinian women and children. There's rumors that troops have shot at pregnant women and children. Netanyahu had claimed that Hamas was hiding bombs or using shields every time they use weapons on unarmed civilians. Netanyahu is a loser and a war criminal. Hopefully he gets convicted and served in a Israeli iron college.

Andrew Cuomo - The former New York governor was ousted after it was revealed his sexually harassed multiple women. He was favored as a potential presidential contender, a strong and effective governor but in reality, he was a egotistical hothead who thought he was above the law. The New York Attorney General Leticia James and 12 women brought Cuomo down. The three term governor was deeply unpopular after Fox and CNN lead the way in discussing his handling of the coronavirus pandemic. Added the sexual harassment scandal, Cuomo would have gotten a fourth term abet a lot of investigations attached to it.

Derek Chauvin - The former Minneapolis police officer who put his goddamn knee on the neck of George Floyd was convicted in April. He became the poster child of police accountability. His actions sparked protests in 2020 and led to many cities to look at the way they have police conduct business with the community. Chauvin, who is white, along with Thomas Lane, J. Kueng and Tou Thao were charge with manslaughter, unintentional homicide, falsifying a police report and not rendering aid. They faced a federal sandwich for violating the civil rights of George Floyd. Chauvin's conviction led to another handful of incidents. One in particular still ongoing is the trial of former Brooklyn Center police officer Kim Potter who is facing reckless homicide, manslaughter and not rendering aid. The former cop is on trial for murdering Daunte Wright, a 20-year old father who she shot with her firearm mistaken as a Taser. She is facing 30 years in the iron college if convicted. She is also likely to face a federal sandwich.

Mike Pence - The former vice president is regarded as a spineless loser. He stood firm in the wake of the insurrection only to retreat back to MAGA-land. Even when former president Donald J. Trump incited a mob to attack the U.S. Capitol, former vice president Mike Pence stood loyal to the guy. In January, the Congress was to conduct the Electoral College. The Congress was interrupted by a mob of Trump supporters who believed lies about the election being stolen. Pence, then senator/vice president-elect Kamala Harris and House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) were quickly removed and placed into safe shelters. The mob was within seconds of confronting Pence, his wife Karen, daughter Audrey and brother, Rep. Greg Pence (R-IN). After the National Guard and police got control of the mob, Congress resumed and formally declared Joe Biden and Kamala Harris, the next President and Vice President of the United States, Pence formally denounced the mob and called for civility. Pence was the only member of Trump administration there for Biden's inauguration. Pence hasn't spoken to Trump since the incident. However, he's been very defensive of Trump despite the former president putting his life in danger. Pence's presidential ambitions for 2024 could be overshadowed by potential running candidates Matt Gaetz, Marjorie Taylor Greene, Ron DeSantis, Ted Cruz and possibly Trump. Pence is regarded as a traitor in the MAGA world. The far-right believe that if Trump had not picked Pence, he would have won his election. Trump even said that Pence is not going to be his first choice going into 2024, if he decides to run.

Ted Cruz - The failed presidential candidate now becomes the biggest sycophant of Donald J. Trump. After the bruising 2016 Republican primaries where Trump had called his wife, Heidi, ugly, mocked Cruz's failure to pass legislation, mocked his running mate Carly Fiorina and said his father may have killed John F. Kennedy, Cruz never punched back. He turned tail and became Trump's wing man. He supported Trump's Supreme Court nominees, trolled liberals, Sesame Street and Jimmy Kimmel. He became the butt of ridicule when decided to bail on his constituents in the middle of a weather event that made Texas freeze for the first time in decades. He made the news this year after he left Texas during the winter storm and power outage for Mexico. The senator would be forced to return after it was revealed he went to Cancun with his family while parts of his hometown of Houston were suffering from blackouts and freezing conditions. He brushed it off and continued his endless trolling. Now he's upset over Sesame Street and has convinced CPAC to not invite Big Bird, Elmo, Bert and Ernie to the far-right convention in February. He is also considering another run for president if Trump decides to not run. He has no memorable legislative accomplishments and his only achievements is being on television being an insufferable asshole.

Phil Valentine - He bragged that he would beat COVID-19. Damn shame COVID-19 never cared about being beaten. The Nashville far-right radio host found himself the poster boy for anti-vaxxing. He fucked around and found out. Valentine who has been a staple of Nashville talk radio died this year after he tested positive for it. He had relentless mocked Dr. Anthony Fauci, mocked Nancy Pelosi for having a large freezer for expensive ice cream, did a song called "Mr. Vaxman" which used The Beatles, "Mr. Taxman" in mocking COVID vaccines. He said that he was supporter of natural immunity and all that nonsense. His life ended five weeks after he tested positive for it. His brother Mark denounced the anti-vaxxers and said his brother paid the price for misinformation. He was one of eight talk radio hosts killed by the coronavirus.

Marcus Lamb - The far-right televangelist died of COVID-19 after fighting vaccine mandates and selling snake oil to his loyal minions of the church. He was a serial peddler of false prophecy, anti-gay, anti-choice, anti-immigrant and a serial adulterer. He and his wife had been promoting fake cures and that damn ivermectin as miracle cures. He said that GOD will save him from the coronavirus. As the founder of the Daystar Television Network, Lamb became one of the richests televangelists in the country. Inside Edition caught this guy using the Paycheck Protection Program loans to buy a luxury jet. He claimed the jet was used for public speaking and religious events, but the tabloid show caught him using the jet to fly his family across the country. He also would visit his condo in Florida and golf on the church's donations. When confronted by Lisa Guerrero, he batted her away and claimed that the jet is used for church uses only. He would return the money to the government. Since the event, he's been promoting anti-vaxx conspiracies, banned members from wearing masks and said that GOD will not allow him to be vaccinated. He caught the coronavirus in late October and died in mid-November. Now his wife Joni will have to take consideration in her life. Will she get vaccinated or go on with the charade? Lamb allegedly cheated on his wife with members of the church as well as prostitutes. While he acknowledged he strayed one or two times, the two had religious council and marriage help to patch things up. His son Jonathan will carry the torch while daughters Rachel and Rebecca will consider getting vaccinated.

Rush Limbaugh - The far-right radio host died in 2021. His last moments in life were to see Joe Biden and Kamala Harris get sworn in as the new leaders of the United States. He announced he had Stage IV lung cancer in February 2020. He said that every day it's getting worse for him. He couldn't motivate the Dittoheads to turn out for Trump. Once the Gold Standard in talk radio, he felt the sting of activism. In 2012, Limbaugh mocked a Georgetown law student name Sandra Fluke. He openly called her a slut and said she needed to open her legs for birth control. That led to a massive advertiser boycott. It really damaged his brand and it downsized his paychecks. He was once making over $200 million for 10 years, but he ended up dying with $34 million. Limbaugh was reckless throughout his 70 years. He was a radio DJ, a three times flunkie in college, a three times failure in marriage and an alleged sexual predator. He survived a heart attack in Hawai'i. He was arrest in Florida with Viagra and oxycontin coming from the Dominion Republic, a place where prostitution is legal. He called mocked former first ladies Michelle Obama and Hillary Clinton. He took pride in watching Clinton take constant attacks from the Republicans and Fox. He claims the responsibility of making Trump the president. Although he was skeptical of Trump, he soon became a strong cheerleader and advocate for Trumpism. He spread conspiracy theories about Barack Obama's birth certificate, Joe Biden's mental fitness and Kamala Harris' blackness. The agitator finished his final show in January and died in February. His death was not big. His wife, Kathryn didn't hold the televised funeral like many had hoped. She didn't reveal the area where he would be buried fearing that folks would destroy his tomb. Rush Limbaugh leaves behind a legacy in pop culture. His hateful rhetoric was a part of the 20th century. Thankfully, his hatefulness will never cross into 2022. 

Mark Zuckerberg - The billionaire nerd who thought the world would like him. The Meta CEO is embattled. His companies Facebook, Instagram and WhatsApp have become toxic. Facebook for pushing election misinformation, anti-vaxxers, conspiracy theories and journalistic malpractice. It's become a breeding ground for hate. It put an end to Donald J. Trump's official accounts (for now). Facebook had been a tool for Russian propaganda, catfishing, spamming and white supremacy. It's also been a call to action, a gateway to relationships, a gateway to families in the pandemic and the best thing to help people cope with death. Facebook for all its problems did help but Zuckerberg wasn't the person that did it. The whistleblower Frances Haugen said that Facebook trafficked misinformation from Breitbart, Gateway Pundit and RT without properly vetting. Zuckerberg cared more about making far-right agitators feel good than dealing with the truth. She said Instagram is making girls feel bad about themselves and it drove to suicide among teens. She said that Zuckerberg was hoping to launch an Instagram kids edition to encourage more youth time on the internet. Facebook scrapped the Instagram Kids and Facebook Kids. With social justice being a popular trend on Facebook, many workers became disillusioned when it spread Jan. 6 "Stop The Steal" rally invites, Free Kyle Rittenhouse propaganda and more hateful rhetoric towards people who post comments on controversial issues. The January 6th insurrection became one of the reasons why Congress is dragging Zuckerberg. They want to seriously break up Meta because of how powerful the company has become. They also want to hold Zuckerberg responsible for allow Trump to spread lies and violence at stroke of a key. (Note: Why I did not include Twitter or Jack Dorsey? Simple: Twitter had took strong action against Trump and permanently banned him. They had prohibited doxxing, which was a favorite among far-right and far-left activists. The company got rid of Dorsey. Facebook hasn't gotten rid of Zuckerberg). I say that Zuckerberg is a loser because he failed to control his social media empire from the divisiness of Trump, far-right agitators, leftists like Shaun King and Russian misinformation.

Brandon Straka - The far-right agitator led the "Walk Away" campaign. He didn't think his campaign to denounce Democrats led him to a federal indictment. The wannabe Scott Pressler/Candace Owens is a hairstylist turned activist. He was spotted on camera at the U.S. Capitol. He was soon indicted for his role in the insurrection. He could face up to three years in federal time out because he was an influencer and had made remarks threatening lawmakers. The "Walk Away" from Trump campaign should be his next move if he manages to survive trial and conviction.

Baked Alaska - The white nationalist who often films himself trolling regular people is also indicted in federal court on breaking and entering into the U.S. Capitol. Tim Gionet, the far-right media personality, avowed neo-Nazi, conspiracy theorist and unemployed actor is looking for about six years in federal time out. Seeing he has a history of stirring up trouble, Gionet is restricted from posting too much on social media given the federal judge labeled his content dangerous. He is also one of the people involved in the Charlottesville "Unite the Right" rally which led to the death of Heather Heyer. Gionet is a washed up actor who found being a liberal stoner dreadful. When he found the cult of Trump, he became this racial realist and pro-masculinity activist. He often would find some line of attack against a person who pissed him off in some way. He was a failed white rapper who couldn't cut it in the mainstream. Now he's a livestreamer who says NIGGER to Black people to see if they'll assault him. When Gionet entered the U.S. Capitol he actually filmed and interviewed people ransacking Nancy Pelosi's office. He even managed to rip out the phones of many lawmakers and encourage them to defecate on the desks of many lawmakers who they felt wrong Trump. He was on probation in Arizona when he went to Washington, DC. So not only he's facing a federal sandwich, he's got a state lunch if convicted.

Terrence K. Williams - The Black gay agitator is still around making videos and throwing down the "Let's Go Brandon" chants. However, he's not a trendsetter like Candace Owens and Tomi Lahren. Terrence K. Williams was the gadfly social media influencer of the Trump years. He was the guy who munched on chicken wings, sipping soda and buck dancing for an audience who would never know who he is if seen in public. He is one of the many Blacks for Trump supporters who got praised by white nationalists for knowing his place. Since the election, he turned on Fox and called for Americans to fight against Biden. Fox no longer sees him as profitable. Twitter has threatened to deplatform him for pushing COVID-19 misinformation. Now this "comedian" is struggling to make money. He has resorted to grifting MAGAs into buying his pancake mix. He was at one point making 3 million views on his rants. Now he's resorting to selling pancake mix for $20. Many Americans can get pancake mix for less than $3 a box. Terrence K. Williams is a loser. He's not funny. He's not relevant. He's just a nuisance and hopeful less popular in 2022 than in 2021. By the way, Christian Walker is an honorable mention. This month, he was ranting about gas prices while wearing Givenchy hoodie and driving a Lexus SUV. He literally made himself the butt of ridicule. He is the unemployed son of Herschel Walker, the U.S. Senate candidate in Georgia. His rants could be a goldmine for left-wing trolls and Democratic operatives willing to make Herschel Walker's antics a topic in the upcoming election. 

Diamond & Silk - The duo of Ineitha Lynette and Herneitha Rochelle Hardaway Richardson were former progressive YouTubers who promoted Black Lives Matter in the wake of Trayvon Martin and Michael Brown. They made a turn to the right. When Megyn Kelly questioned Donald J. Trump over his allegations of sexism, these two made a video slamming Kelly and became overnight internet celebrities. They became the two most visible Black women in the Trump orbit. They truly a minstrel show for the MAGAs. These two had book deals, on tour for Republicans, spoke at the Republican Convention in 2016, got a gig on Fox News and became household names. But things changed when Trump lost. They were quickly dropped from Fox News and their Fox Nation show was canceled in 2020. They ended up in Newsmax for a few months before they were dropped. No one is buying their bullshit and truthfully people just hate their irritating voices. Diamond & Silk ain't gone yet, but their popularity plummeted since Trump is out of of office.

Kyle Kulinski - A propagandist for Bernie Sanders and leftists, Kyle Kulinski was once a strong progressive voice. His opposition to Joe Biden and spreading Russian active measures made him a pariah among progressives and even his former ally Cenk Uygur. He is one of the many brogressives who promote violence towards Democrats and Republicans. He along with folks like Katie Halper, Benjamin Dixon Ryan Grim, Brihana Joy Gray and Krystal Ball became a grifters and propagandists for the Russian Federation. They have become pariahs among the left. Many progressives believe that the Bernie Bros done more damage than good.

Cenk Uygur - The Young Turks was once a promising progressive network. Now it's just an outlet for conspiracy theories, white nationalism and phony outrage. The founder of the network, Cenk Uygur is no longer relevant in the matters of Democratic politics. His network and those who supported it are called "bad faith" actors and folks ridiculed his ill-timed bid to run for former lawmaker Katie Hall's seat in California. He only managed to win only 2% of the vote.

Lou Dobbs - As Dominion and Smartmatic voting systems plan on suing Fox for spreading slanderous lies during the 2020 election, Lou Dobbs found himself off the network. As one of the primetime hosts on Fox Business, Dobbs led the crusade to promote Donald J. Trump, anti-immigration, the deep state and election fraud conspiracies. Dobbs hosted a handful of agitators ranging from Lin Wood, Sidney Porter and even former New York mayor Rudy Giuliani as experts on how to detect voter fraud. Night after night, Dobbs, Maria Bartiromo, Sean "Softball" Hannity, Laura Ingraham, Tucker Carlson and Fox & Friends promoted the notion that Trump was right in dispute the election. They claimed that communists were controlling Smartmatic and Dominion devices. They claimed that vote machines were switching votes from Joe Biden to Trump. That ended up being proven wrong and the companies are now suing Fox and these folks for nearly $1.4 billion in damages. Rupert Murdoch and his son Lachlan are trying to dispute the lawsuit by stating the agitators are entertainers. But entertaining the public is not what Softball Hannity, Ingraham and Carlson do. They are trying to convince voters to support Trump and Republicans. They did it for news and public interest. Lou Dobbs was scrubbed this year without much explanation. But this lawsuit aimed at the network was a huge factor. Dobbs is pretty much a washed up celebrity like Bill O'Reilly, Chris Cuomo and Jussie Smollett.

Jay Johnston - The actor and comedian was spotted at the U.S. Capitol and participated in the insurrection. For that he lost his gig with Fox and its animated series Bob's Burgers. The comedian who appeared on Gavin McInnes show and apparently sided with the Proud Boys. Now the feds are looking for him and his gigs are dry. I can honestly said that Jay Johnston is now a washed up celebrity because he not only got himself fired from television but he tried to overthrow democracy.

Chris Cuomo - The brother of former governor Andrew Cuomo was fired out the cannon at CNN. His career ended when he decided to grab dirt on the accusers of his brother. The former CNN host had faced a lot of heat after it was revealed that he was trying to dig up dirt on his brother's accusers. Chris Cuomo who was then a journalist from ABC News before making the jump to CNN was a rising figure in news. He was a considerable talent who had reasonable ratings on weeknights. CNN suspended Cuomo "indefinitely" on Tuesday. The law firm retained by the network submitted its findings on Friday, according to a source with knowledge of the matter, and CNN Worldwide president Jeff Zucker fired Cuomo in the wake of the scandal. A few hours after CNN's announcement, the New York Times reported that a lawyer, Debra Katz, had on Wednesday told CNN of an allegation of sexual misconduct made against Chris Cuomo by a client of hers. According to the Times, the client is "a former junior colleague [of Cuomo's] at another network." While Chris Cuomo's involvement with the governor's office were reported several months ago, the specifics were detailed in a massive document dump on Monday. The documents -- released by New York Attorney General Letitia James after an investigation into the governor -- showed that Chris Cuomo, while working as one of CNN's top anchors, was also effectively working as an unpaid aide to the governor. The network had no choice but to fire him out the cannon. They wanted to save their dignity and reputation as a fair and clear journalist operation. CNN had more standards than Fox when it comes to ethics. Sean "Softball" Hannity, Laura Ingraham and Brian Kilmeade were revealed this year in the House Select Committee's investigation of the Jan. 6 insurrection. The agitators told former president Donald J. Trump to call off the mob but later downplayed the seriousness of the attack on the U.S. Capitol. Fox is under fire for that. The network is not planning on firing them out the cannon (for now). The Cuomo brothers now leave a legacy like their father Mario, tarnished in bullying, sexual misconduct and corruption.

Jussie Smollett - The former Empire star was found guilty of staging a racially motivated crime. He hired two crew extras to attack him. Many folks gave the entertainer the boot after he staged an attack in Chicago. We don't know why he would ruin his career. I mean he was riding the wave of success with Empire. He had made a household name for himself and folks enjoyed the character Jamal Lyon. However, Smollett has not appeared on television or performed in concert since the January 2019 scandal that killed his career. He caused turmoil at Empire which didn't finish on a high note as they wanted, but its impact allowed Fox to cancel Star in the middle of a cliffhanger.Smollett was unhappy with his salary and he wanted to promote his career. Smollett's conviction for lying to police about a racist, homophobic attack came nearly three years after his report of a horrifying hate crime quickly became part of a polarized political landscape, with people — including the president of the United States — weighing in from all over. A prosecutor said the verdict was “a resounding message by the jury that the suspect did exactly what we said he did” — recruit two brothers to fake an attack so it could be recorded by a surveillance camera and posted on social media for publicity. The brothers testified that the former “Empire” actor paid them $3,500 for the hoax and gave them lines to yell, including about “MAGA country,” an apparent reference to then-President Donald Trump’s “Make America Great Again” slogan.The report made headlines around the world and prompted a massive manhunt in Chicago, with roughly two dozen police joining the investigation. It also drew criticism from Trump, who called the police department’s handling of the case “an absolute embarrassment to our country.”“Not only did [the suspect] lie to the police and wreak havoc here in the city for weeks on end for no reason whatsoever, but then he compounded the problem by lying under oath to a jury,” special prosecutor Dan Webb said after Thursday’s verdict. While he awaits his sentencing, Smollett now knows the real price of fame.

Jenna Ryan - I called her the MAGA MILF. Texas realtor Jenna Ryan plead guilty to entering the U.S. Capitol in January. She continues to be a staunch supporter of former president Donald J. Trump. The controversial realtor seriously believed she would not go to jail because she's white and pretty. Oh the court didn't like that much. She is expected to serve at least 60 days in federal prison. During that time, the white terrorist is showing out for her supporters and saying that going to federal time out is going to be like a vacation. Ryan traveled on a private jet to Washington, DC. She filmed herself walking down Pennsylvania Avenue towards the U.S. Capitol. The realtor and thousands of others broke through a police barrier and broke into the U.S. Capitol. She said on camera that she didn't care if she lived or died, she is fighting for her president. She tweeted on social media after being caught that she's white, pretty, blonde, successful and shouldn't go to jail. The white terrorist asked for Trump to pardon her and others for committing an act of sedition. Now I thought the judge told Ryan to stop posting shit on social media. She posted on TikTok that she will detox, have yoga sessions and request special food while in there. She even went as far to have a Swedish documentary crew come to her house and do some takes as she prepares to denounce her guilty plea. What she did in the documentary is pretty much claim that the federal government under President Joe Biden is punishing patriots like her and those who believe falsely that the election was stolen. This woman is clearly a loser. I hate to say this, but we haven't heard the last of Jenna Ryan.

Prince Andrew - The royals aren't as popular as they once were when Princess Diana was married to Prince Charles. The Duke and Duchess of Sussex left royal duties because Meghan was being constantly attacked by the junk food media and Prince Harry believed that racism was a factor. He distanced himself from Prince William and Katherine, the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge. Meghan gave birth to her daughter and said that she may return to acting in the future. Harry is still working on behalf of the crown but doing a limited amounts. They live in the United States far away from the noise of the British junk food media. Harry and William's uncle, Prince Andrew has a real problem on him. The Duke of York is under federal watch in the United States and is under scrutiny in Britain. He allegedly slept with underage girls under the watchful eyes of billionaire sexual predator Jeffrey Epstein. He wasn't around the Queen much. His daughter Princess Beatrice gave birth to her first child without him presence. Prince Charles has distanced himself from his brother. Prince Philip before he died and Queen Elizabeth II had warned Andrew that his royal title could be stripped if they find evidence of misconduct. He has been out of the limelight now that Ghislaine Maxwell is in federal custody for sex trafficking. She became one of the key figures who could bring down not only Andrew, but former presidents Bill Clinton, Donald J. Trump, lawyer Alan Dershowitz and many others.

Matt Gaetz - He is been constantly trolling and acting like he's not in some deep shit. He was trolling Liz Cheney in Wyoming. He was doing "Patriot Tours" with Marjorie Taylor Greene in an attempt to generate 2024 buzz. He would be Donald J. Trump's most loyalist member in the House. The FBI and Florida state attorney are looking into his antics outside the Capitol. It was revealed that one of his former friend, Joel Greenberg was arrested and charged with theft, stalking, sex trafficking, cryptocurrency fraud, loan fraud. He also had allegations of child pornography on his devices. The feds have enough evidence to send him to federal time out for LIFE. But Greenburg is hoping to catch a break. So he is ratting out Matt Gaetz. Gaetz allegedly traveled across state lines with a 16-year old girl. When asked about the allegations he denied it. He went to Fox to talk to Tucker Carlson and explain that the girl he was with was "legal" at the time and he ate dinner with the agitator and his wife. Carlson was like "I don't know what you're talking about." Gaetz has not being in the news as much as his other do-nothings because he is hoping that the feds could give him a plea deal to keep him out the spotlight.

Kelly Loeffler - Defeated in the Senate race run-off, forced off the Atlanta Dream WNBA franchise and kicked out the Republican Party for breaking with the party in certifying Joe Biden as the president. What a year its been for Kelly Loeffler. Early in her appointment it was revealed that she had personal knowledge of the pandemic and had sold stock when the economy was tanking. She along with a handful of Senators were accused of insider trading and profiting while in the pandemic. Stacey Abrams came through and gave Raphael Warnock the boost he needed to defeat the first woman senator. Warnock became the first Black Democrat in a generation to become a U.S. Senator in Georgia. 

David Perdue - Stacey Abrams had fought hard for Georgia. He managed to get Black voters to turn out for Jon Ossoff and Raphael Warnock. David Perdue blamed Trump for his loss. Trump lost the state of Georgia to Biden. For the first time in almost 30 years, the state went to a Democrat. It riled up the former president. When Trump was pressuring Georgia state officials to overturn the results of the election, it depressed turnout and it led to Perdue and Loeffler being defeated by the Democrats. Now angry over his loss, Perdue launches a gubernatorial bid to fight against his former ally Brian Kemp. The civil war in Georgia could break Republicans and allow Stacey Abrams through. She is seeking another run for governor.

Those Americans who refused to wear mask or get vaccinated - The federal government is laying the hammer on anti-vaxxers and anti-maskers. The folks who decide to act out in federal buildings or airplanes are getting heavily fined. Folks have constantly opposed the vaccines and masks. Well they're refusal has led to over 850,000 Americans dead and pre-longing the pandemic. President Joe Biden had hopes that Americans would take this shit seriously. Unfortunately, Republicans so fucking eager to return to power will keep Americans fixated on the culture wars. Now vaccinations are part of this culture war. But those fighting the culture war by not vaccinating, not wearing face mask in public, not following protocols, and deliberately ignoring federal and international rules when traveling are going to be the first casualties of the war. With this pandemic mostly affecting states where Republican governors are, we may have to return to wearing facial protection and cutting back services to reduce the spread of the coronavirus.We came so far only to have a bunch of selfish idiots set it back. Just because they hate President Joe Biden. The Republicans are so devoted to destroying Biden and the country for what....to regain power.

Travis Scott - The once promising hip-hop star and rocker is now facing a slew of lawsuits due to his Astroworld Festival. The festival in Houston turned out to be one of the most deadliest stampedes in American history. Over 11 people have died at this event. The event hosted not only Scott but a slew of rappers, actors and his on-and-off girlfriend Kylie Jenner. The entertainer was either aware of the crowd being unruly or unware of the fans stressing that he ended the concert. Scott (born Jacques Webster) quickly apologized for the incident and offered to pay for the funerals of the victims. The victims turned it down. They said that Scott and the management have to pay the price. They also want criminal charges against the rapper, the concert promoters and the management agencies that allowed it to happen. Travis Scott was immediately dropped from the upcoming festivals he was slated to perform. He also has been dropped by some companies as their spokesman. He was hoping to release his new album this year but got pushed back due to the controversy. I know it's going to be a costly year going forward.

DaBaby - Lonely, lonely baby! The once promising hip-hop star made remarks disparging the LGBTQ community and it cost him big time. Jonathan Kirk, known as DaBaby was on the rise. Since he came into the picture in 2019 with his single, "Suge" everyone was rocking Baby. Even in the wake of a shooting in which the rapper killed a teen inside a Walmart, nothing could phase this guy. DaBaby was known to put the blows on fans, spectators and former allies. He has numerous arrests and numerous lawsuits from folks. It didn't phase him. He kicked the mother of his child DaniLeigh out of his home after he and her got into an argument. It led to a fight where she was arrested for assault.  But the concert where he was gay men were dying from AIDS and saying that gay people are dying off.  "If you didn’t show up today with HIV, AIDS, or any of them deadly sexually transmitted diseases, that’ll make you die in two to three weeks, then put your cellphone lighter up," he said. "Ladies, if your pussy smell like water, put your cellphone lighter up. Fellas, if you ain’t sucking dick in the parking lot, put your cellphone lighter up.” Those remarks led to him being dropped from concerts and major promotionals. Mind you he shot a man dead and yet managed to get millions in deals. It was a 20-second rant that led to his demise. Mind you that DaBaby isn't hardly gone yet. I mean he's still getting shows and doing music videos. He still working on his fourth album and is still for now signed to Interscope Records. Hopefully, I won't say he makes the list of losers in 2022. 

Boosie Badazz - The Louisiana rapper who started a feud with Lil Nas X. Boosie Badazz became an online troll who has a serious case of homophobia. The Louisiana rapper has made no secret of his feelings about Lil Nas X’s popularity. Despite the backlash over his previous comments in which he called Naserti several slurs in defense of DaBaby, Boosie doubled down. Nasarti who decided to troll the nonsense mocked the rapper by saying they've got a collaboration single coming out and "it's hot."So this pissed off Boosie. Paraphrased but left out the gay slur due to Google placing sanctions on that word. If I posted the word, blogger would be sanctioned and removed."Stop trolling me [you] _____! Lol!! You a hoe ass bitch playing with a gangsta. Smh, you can keep sucking dick and getting fucked in your ass in peace. [Go on] and you hate yourself. I would too if I was you! [Lil] Nas X, if you commit suicide, you would do this world a huge favor! Nobody wants you here!" He added on his social again without the gay slur. "Stop playing with the straight [men], _____! Lol! "Think about it, nobody wants you here!" His unabashedly homophobic and pretty ignorant remarks are controversial. Given to the changing demographics, Boosie BadAzz is losing the battle. Even in troll, he is losing. He allegedly allowed a woman perform a sex act on underage children. One being a son and the other being their cousin. He has been most notorious for staging a square up with a Lil Nas X impersonator.

Shaun King - The leftist who uses plight for profit. This guy has no shame. Just last month, he said his daughter was in the hospital for being hit by a vehicle. Next thing he does is sell his ARealOne hoodies and t-shirts with him smoking a joint. This guy is a waste of human space. This year alone, he blocked over 30,000 followers who criticized him. He got into a feud with Samaria Rice, the mother of Tamir Rice. The agitator was exposed as a thief and grifter. The New York Post reported that he purchased a nearly $1 million dollar home. He claimed his wife Rai King purchased it. Many believe that Every time he's gotten caught up in a situation, somehow he magically has a family member in the hospital. He claimed his oldest daughter was hit by a vehicle. He said that his home is being watched by stalkers. King also claimed that his mother-in-law had minor surgery. Oh, by the way, purchase his book "Make Change" and buy those organic hoodies. This guy is a disease and thankfully many Black activists are finally wising up to Talcum X.

Josh Duggar - The former co-star of 19 Kids & Counting is heading to federal prison after he was found guilty of child pornography and sex trafficking. It was revealed that he molested many of his sisters and his wife. He cheated on his wife with workers at the Family Research Council. He slept with prostitutes and had a black card at Ashley Madison. He also had a stash of child pornography hidden on his work computer when he was trolling for prominent right wing extremists. His name appeared on the Ashley Madison website along with Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX). Ashley Madison, a confidential sex hook up website for married couples was hacked and he was to be revealed as a member as well as a handful of Republican officials.  "I have been the biggest hypocrite ever. While espousing faith and family values, I have secretly over the last several years been viewing pornography on the Internet and this became a secret addiction and I became unfaithful to my wife" ... "the last few years, while publicly stating I was fighting against immorality in our country I was hiding my own personal failures." Now those failures could keep him locked up for 50 years. Duggar's actions led to his father losing a race in Arkansas, the show they hosted being cancelled and his reputation tarnished. His wife unfortunately stood by him throughout this. But if she's willing to wait 50 years, she got to find someone else by then.

R. Kelly - The former R&B singer's career is pretty much over. He was convicted in federal court of sex trafficking, child pornography and sexual assault of a minor while traveling across state lines. Robert Sylvester Kelly's fall from grace was harder than we thought. The 54-year old convicted sexual predator was caught up in the Lifetime documentary "Surviving R. Kelly." It led to many women accusing the former singer of sexual torture, manipulation and depriving them of their rights. The icing on the cake was the feds getting him for forgery of documents. Remember the brief marriage to Aaliyah. The late R&B/pop singer was 14 and Kelly was 25 at the time. The singer impregnated her and he needed her to lie about her age to convince her to get an abortion. The singer had allegations stemming from the early 1990s. Kelly's lust for underage girls was also seen when he visited a local Chicago McDonald's known as a hangout for young girls. Another bombshell came into the court. A man testified that he alleged that the singer made him perform sex acts on him when he was boy. Now everyone in the singer's orbit are under scrutiny as well. He is expected to be sentenced in 2022. The singer is already ratting out people in high profile positions. Kelly also had his assets seized. All the victims, his former wife Andrea and his estranged children will receive the millions of dollars from a career of hits. Now Kelly is a federal intern and a sexual predator. He and Josh Duggar will be in the same facility where disgraced Subway pitchman Jared Fogle is.

Kim Potter - The former Brooklyn Center police officer was found guilty of involuntary homicide in the shooting of Daunte Wright. The far-right was hoping to use a dead body's past deeds to inspire opinion. The opinion going around was that Wright resisted arrest and Kim Potter had justifiable right to shoot. The cop mistaken her firearm for a Taser and shot him in the chest. He would end up driving his vehicle into a car crashing. Potter didn't help herself by collapsing to the ground crying she's going to jail. She didn't help herself by saying that she never used her Taser in the years of working in the department. The whole ordeal happened only days after Derek Chauvin was convicted of murdering George Floyd. Potter cried and apologized to the family but the mother Katie Wright saw through those crocodile tears. She believed that Potter only cared about herself instead of the victim. The far-right wanted to bring up Wright's past encounters as a violent felon. It didn't sway the jury. Trust me, this often happens when the right wants to defend the indefensible. Trust me, justice was done. Wright's killer will be sentenced to prison in 2022.

Travis McMichael, Greg McMichael and William Roddy Bryan - The three men who murdered Ahmaud Arbery were found guilty. Even though Greg McMichael and William Bryan didn't pull the trigger, they were involved in the detainment and obstruction of Arbery which made the cupiable of murder. These three tried to get a corrupt district attorney to drop the charges. She ended up being defeated in a primary and also charged with tampering with evidence. They tried to use Arbery's history with police and his previous encounters at an abandoned property as an excuse to get away with murder. They also wanted to push their own version of  "stand your ground." The court didn't see that. They saw three men lynch a jogger and these murderers were convicted and sentenced to LIFE in prison. Ahmaud's family got justice but it came at a price. Had no one released the video of the shooting, these three would have gotten away with murder.

Ghislaine Maxwell - The former girlfriend of the pedophile billionaire Jeffrey Epstein was convicted of sexual trafficking and exploitation of children. The former British-American socialite is now facing a federal time out which could be life. She became the fall guy for Epstein. She had recruited teenage girls to befriend Epstein. He used these girls as sex slaves and offered them to wealthy and prominent people in the world. Prince Andrew, Bill Clinton, Donald J. Trump and Alan Dershowitz are fingered as alleged members of this Epstein Island. While all of the men deny they've slept with underage girls, Maxwell may spill dirt in the coming weeks when she is expecting to take a plea deal in order to have a reduced sentence. Maxwell still faces state charges and lawsuits from the victims who said that she either participated or engaged in looking the other way.

Winners:

Americans who got vaccinated and followed CDC guidelines in a pandemic. The biggest culture war in the country is the mask and vaccine mandates. Americans who failed to get vaccinated are finding out the price when they're catching the coronavirus. Many of them are not surviving this. So far I can roughly estimate that 845,000 Americans have died from the coronavirus. Those who decided to roll up their sleeves and got the first, second and booster shot are the real winners. Folks who used ivermectin and hydroxyquinoline are idiots. Those who are able to pay thousands of dollars for treatment instead of getting a free shot are idiots. Those who got vaccinated because they want to save lives and be healthy are the real heroes and winners.

First Responders - the doctors, the nurses, the firefighters, the "good" police officers and the "good" military workers did so much for America. They worked non-stop in this pandemic. A handful of bad police officers and military officials have kind of make the need for recruitment low. The Black Lives Matter movement is dwindling down in their popularity due to a pandemic and many Americans now needed police in areas where demand is needed. The first responders who helped Californians during the wildfires need a break. The doctors and nurses who have to deal with putting loved ones on ventilators during a pandemic need a break. The military officials who served in Afghanistan and other entities abroad need a break.  

Service workers who take a lot of crap from customers in the wake of the pandemic. With the pandemic still an ongoing thing, service workers are dealing with more frustrated customers. From managers pushing more work and more hours to tossing soup in faces, jumping over restaurant counters, getting yelled at on the bus when you ask to put a mask on, many of the service workers are quitting their jobs because they are done with bullshit.

Joe Biden - Despite the noise, Joe Biden has done far more than former president Donald J. Trump when it comes to the pandemic and handling the economy. He has not golfed much or taken a lengthy vacation. However, he is still a work in progress and many Americans want results now. He can't get much done when the Congress slow walks his agenda. He managed to get Kyrsten Sinema and Joe Manchin on board with many of his proposals. He has managed to get the Squad on board with his proposals. It is the Republicans who have the most difficulty to get on board. Biden did have setbacks when it came to getting his Build Back Better agenda passed. He also faced criticisms over his complete pullout from Afghanistan. The leftists are demanding he magically "cancel student debt." The far-right wants to say "Let's Go Brandon" while collecting their stimulus checks from the Biden administration. Biden wanted to get his agenda rolling but it's difficult given that the House and Senate elected extremists within it ranks. To ensure he is not a one term president like Donald J. Trump, Biden must try to at least accomplish voting rights. One year down, three to go.

Kamala Harris - Being the first African American woman to be Vice President is a huge accomplishment for Kamala Devi Harris. The former California senator was picked by Biden to be his partner in governing. She is the daughter of an Indian mother and Jamaican father. She is not only Black but part South Asian. Only been in the senate for less than three years and before that she was California Attorney General. She has been Biden's best partner in getting things done. The junk food media is doing their "best" to taint Harris as the "angry Black woman." They ran stories about how she is "difficult" to work with to assholes like Charlamagne Tha God asking her who is actually the president. Kamala had to take the high road when it came to these ridiculous rumors. The far-right and the Karen governors were upset over the vice president not visiting the U.S.-Mexico border amid a wave of migrants fleeing their countries for the American dream.

Pete Buttigieg - The first openly gay White House secretary. The former South Bend mayor and 2020 presidential candidate was rewarded the job of being Transportation Secretary. He and his husband Chasten would become proud parents to a daughter and son. Buttigieg proves to be more than a great asset to President Joe Biden but a force to reckon with. He has been actively trolling Republicans on their refusal to support the Build Back Better plan. The plan which would improve instructure was passed through two pieces. The first piece which had bipartisan support was slightly delayed because of the progressive Democratic House members. It finally got to Biden's desk for signature. Now as the second piece is being done, Joe Manchin and Kyrsten Sinema stand in the way. Buttigieg has been very active in working with the two white nationalist Democrats. He has been behind the scenes trying to work on getting the "human infrustature" part passed. He was first member to go on active FAMLA leave when he announced the birth of his children.

Doug Emhoff - Kamala Harris' husband is the first Jewish Second Gentleman. He is married to the vice president and she is step-mother to his son and daughter. He is not only a lawyer but a goodwill ambassador and friend to President Joe Biden. Emhoff began his career as an entertainment lawyer. He was managing director of Venable's West Coast offices and later became a partner at DLA Piper. He is also a distinguished visiting professor at Georgetown University Law Center. Emhoff continues to work at his law firm. He vows to be a helpful ally to the president and his wife, Kamala.

Dr. Jill Biden - The First Lady of the United States is truly a winner. She is a lovely lady who has been there during the good and bad times for President Joe Biden. She was then a second lady and ally to Barack and Michelle Obama. She is a professor at a local Virginia community college. She continues to be a dedicated worker for education. She is the first First Lady to actively be working a normal job. Far more visible than her predecessor Melania Trump. Dr. Biden has been very active in helping children affected by the coronavirus. She has advocated for safe schools in the pandemic, reading, ending bullying in the classroom and eliminating gun violence. Biden has been very supportive of her husband. Throughout the 2020 election when allegations of sexual misconduct from a former staffer, Biden brushed it off. She knew her husband and his family values. Biden himself said he never would do something like that. The staffer named Tara Reade account was disputed by former Biden aides, the Obama White House and people who once associated with her. Reade has so far retreated to the internet and got hired as a member of RT as an opinion columnist. Many figured she is a Russian agent designed to harm Biden. Even the first lady had allegations from her ex-husband. Her ex-husband, a Trump supporter claimed that Biden stole her from him. The Bidens once again dismissed the claims. The true love of Dr. Jill Biden and President Joe Biden is real. 

Britney Spears - The disgraced pop star became a free woman. The entertainer finally is free from her conservatorship. After her numerous breakdowns, her father placed himself as a conservator of her property, money and music. The 40-year old entertainer has been showing signs of mental illness despite the fight to get her off the conservatorship. A judge in Los Angeles on Friday ended the conservatorship set up by the 39-year-old singer's father in 2008 with immediate effect. Fans had gathered outside the LA court to support Spears, who had described the guardianship as abusive. Her father Jamie earlier said it was "necessary", but agreed it was time for her "to re-take control of her life". "Her life was in shambles and she was in physical, emotional, mental and financial distress," lawyers representing Jamie Spears said in earlier court filings. Spears lost custody of her children and they're in the custody of Kevin Federline. She is paying nearly $100,000 in child support. She is now hoping to return back to music and marry her longtime boyfriend. Spears opened up about being bipolar and having dealing with the price of fame.

Nancy Pelosi - The embattled House member continues to strive despite the noise from members on the right and left. Yes, the infamous both sides argument. We seen Nancy Pelosi rip up then President Donald J. Trump's State of the Union speech in 2020 in the height of this pandemic. Pelosi showed strength and courage in the face of strong opposition towards her. Pelosi became vilified by the far-right. The U.S. Capitol riots became one of the most infamous events in 2021. The capitol rioters broke into her office and destroyed it. They ended up being caught and prosecuted. Pelosi would end up cleaning up the mess. She would hold Donald J. Trump accountable for the riots and drafted Articles of Impeachment against him. This was the second time she did it. When Joe Biden took office, Pelosi worked hard to get the Build Back Better agenda passed. She implicated strict rules when it came to bringing weapons on the House floor. She urged members to wear masks and get vaccinated. Some decided to protest the decision. They fucked around and found out. Pelosi also made the Squad sit their crazy asses down. When they threatened to sink the bipartisan infrastructure bill, Jim Clyburn managed to get the Republicans and Democrats together to pass the senate version of the bipartisan bill. 13 members of the Republican conference managed to get through the legislation. Pelosi is working hard and is credited as a winner.

Jim Clyburn - Give this man the credit he deserves. He helped carry Joe Biden to the finish line. He managed to help boast Shontel Brown and he managed to wrangle the Democrats in the House to pass the bipartisan infrastructure bill after a handful of Democrats stalled it because of their loyalty to leftists and Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT). James Clyburn is a son of sharecroppers, a civil rights activist and lawmaker from South Carolina. He is the kingmaker to Black politics. He managed to overcome segregation to become a loyal solider to civil rights. He has often been the voice of reason to the noise of the left and right. He said that the sloganing needs to stop. He said that Democrats need to just do the job and stop making promises that we can't keep. He had advised Biden to pick a Black woman as his running mate. Kamala Harris was the perfect choice to Biden. Clyburn has been a winner in many of these special races. Shontel Brown, Troy Carter, Byron Brown and many other Black lawmakers who didn't follow The Squad so far ended up winning their races this year.

Shontel Brown - Ohio representative took on a giant and won. Shontel Brown is an underdog who faced off against an onslaught of misinformation from leftists and those associated to Nina Turner and Bernie Sanders. Brown managed to defeat Turner. It was a hard fought battle. Brown managed to play to the base by staying focus. She didn't relent to the noise of the far-left. Despite the members of the Squad, Shaun King and The Young Turks trying to undermine Brown, she managed to pull off a victory. Brown said that she rather be a lawmaker than an activist. So far she's doing more work than Cori Bush, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and Marjorie Taylor Greene combined.

Raphael Warnock - The senior pastor of Ebenezer Baptist Church still does sermons on Sunday. When he's done, he hops on a plane and heads back to Washington, DC as the U.S. Senator from Georgia. Warnock's victory was shocking. He defeated former Atlanta Dream CEO and Republican senator Kelly Loeffler in a special run-off election. When Joe Biden won Georgia, Donald J. Trump was highly upset over the results. He tried to convince Georgia Republicans to throw out the results and called upon members of the Republican Party to not certify Biden's victory. Trump's downplaying of the election results ended up making Republicans not turn out for the run-off. Warnock became the first Black Democrat in the South to become a U.S. Senator. He along with Cory Booker and the far-right Republican Tim Scott make up three of the African Americans in the Senate. Brian Kemp, the embattled governor of Georgia is feuding with Trump and Republicans over the election results. He is trying to win back the Trump's favor by passing controversial laws that restrict voting in districts that mostly vote Democratic. The Republicans in many states have passed or thought of laws that restrict voting for Americans. Warnock has been very vocal about voting rights and police reform. In the wake of the Rayshard Brooks shooting by police and the rise of Marjorie Taylor Greene, Warnock had to up security at his church and home. He has been working with Vice President Kamala Harris, Booker and Scott on getting HBCU funding and helping Black families affected by COVID. Warnock is facing a challenge from former football star and Texan turned Georgian Herschel Walker. Walker who is a close ally of Trump is already facing heat not only for his violent outbursts because of bipolar disorder but for his unemployed son making a fool of himself on social media.

Jon Ossoff - The youngest member of the U.S. Senate. He replaces Josh Hawley, the controversial Missouri senator as the youngest member of the legislative body. He came back after a stinging defeat in the U.S. House Race against Karen Handel. Handel would beat him by two points in a special election after Tom Rice left to join Trump's administration. Handel would be defeated later by Lucy McBath, the mother of slain teen Jordan Davis. Thomas Jonathan Ossoff was an investigative journalist and activist. His surprise victory was thanks to a bitter Donald J. Trump. He was elected at the age of 33 years old and became the most reliable ally to Joe Biden. Where Kyrsten Sinema and Joe Manchin failed at working with Democrats, Ossoff, Raphael Warnock, Jon Tester, Mark Kelly, Mark Warner, Tim Kaine and independent Angus King are balancing the bar. Sinema and Manchin have been thorns in Biden's agenda. Despite Democrats winning Georgia and Arizona, the two members of the Senate have refused or stalled the agenda along with the Republicans. Ossoff and Warnock have worked behind the scenes to make Manchin and Sinema see the light. Ossoff is the first Jewish senator from Georgia.

Glenn Youngkin - The only Republican to win without the presence of Donald J. Trump. In a polarizing year, a Republican emerges as a contender for 2024. The rise of Glenn Youngkin was no accident. He managed to win over independents and Republicans who despise Trump but despise Joe Biden as well. The challenger Terry McAuliffe took his eye off the ball. He spent most of his campaign warning about the dangers of Trump instead of the problems of Virginia. He also was wagering on Congress passing the Build Back Better agenda. Thanks to Joe Manchin and Kyrsten Sinema, the Congress couldn't deliver the bill. Also the Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and Cori Bush were rooting for the opponents of the Democratic nominee in the primary and didn't throw much support to McAuliffe. On top of that, many remember how McAuliffe was as governor and it kind of was a turn off. Youngkin played on the transgender abuse in a restroom and the COVID mandates. He also used coded language to win over white nationalists. Youngkin kept Trump away from Virginia. The state went to Biden by ten points. Youngkin's victory has automatically made Virginia a swing state which Biden needs to win in the presidential election in 2024. Already people are considering Youngkin as a either a potential candidate or a running mate in 2024. 

Eric Adams - The New York mayor-elect will take office on Jan. 1. He will have a lot of work to do. The second African American to be mayor of America's largest city, Adams has to build a trust between the people who elected him and the NYPD who believe he could bring "law and order" back to the country. Adams beaten Bernie Sanders-back candidate Maya Wiley in a race to become mayor. He also denounced Bill de Blasio's style of mayoral governance. De Blasio will be considering a "ill-fated" run for governor in the new year. Adams is not willing to back that. He said that he's more likely willing to give NYPD the resources to fight against crime. The NYPD had disbanded the undercover and plains clothes operations. The year 2020 and 2021 seen a small rise in crime and of course the far-right is trying to taint President Joe Biden and Gov. Kathy Hochul to the problems. Adams is going to disspell the notion and get things done. He had hired an African American woman to be the NYPD commissioner. Keechant Swell will be the new commissioner of America's largest police department. Adams hopefully will not be cursed like David Dinkins when he served the city. Thankfully there's no Rudy Giuliani and noise makers like Rush Limbaugh around.

Marjorie Taylor Greene - A conspiracy theorist and internet troll wrapped up in a body of 5'1''. The Georgia lawmaker who goes by the initials of MTG became a very vocal supporter of Donald J, Trump. Since her rise to fame, she supported the family of the cop who shot Rayshard Brooks. She called for armed protests against Black Lives Matter. She supported Kyle Rittenhouse and offered him a job (as well as Lauren Boebert, Madison Cawthorn, Louie Gohmert and Matt Gaetz), stalked David Hogg, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and numerous others. She called U.S. territory Guam a foreign nation prompting its congressman Michael San Nicolas to clarify her remarks. She mocked Illinois lawmaker Marie Newman's transgender daughter. She appeared on white nationalist programs and podcasts. She is pretty much like Ocasio-Cortez when it comes to shock value. All the noise became too much when she threatened the Squad with violence. The House decided to strip her and Paul Gosar of their position after they continued to push forth more violent rhetoric towards members. Boebert is likely to lose her positions as well. Greene is considering a run for president. Even though she has no accomplishments as a lawmaker, her undying support for Trump could be beneficial for her in the long run. Her ass will be annoying members for years to come.

Adam Kinzinger - The Illinois lawmaker and U.S. veteran cares about his country. As a conservative, he was dealing with the plight of party over country. Adam Kinzinger said that Congress is too toxic. He blames Donald J. Trump for being a symptom of this. He never thought he would get death threats. Some of them came from his family. He faced a slew of attacks from his own family when he decided to cast his vote to impeach the former president. Kinzinger like many of the lawmakers in Washington were angry over the insurrection. The insurrection had became a part of American history. He knew that he could face a challenger from the right so he decided to retire for his sanity. On top of that, he took on the job of being a member of the House Select Committee investigating Jan. 6. He also voted in favor of stripping Marjorie Taylor Greene, Paul Gosar and soon Lauren Boebert of their committee assignments for spreading violent threats towards members. He also voted for Biden's Build Back Better package. He is being called a traitor by members of his own party because he decided to take a stand against misinformation and Trumpism.

Liz Cheney - As chairwoman of the House Select Committee on Jan. 6, Liz Cheney has been a vocal hero to those on the left despite being a far-right Republican and daughter of Dick Cheney, the former vice president of the United States. The Wyoming congresswoman is vilified by Donald J. Trump and her fellow Republicans. She became the first high profile member of the Republican conference to impeach him for the insurrection. Ever since that vote, the Republican leadership stripped her of her top position. Elise Stefanik of New York became the top chair for Republicans sparking a feud between the two. Cheney has been in the crosshairs of freshman lawmakers Marjorie Taylor Greene, Lauren Boebert and Madison Cawthorn for betrayal of Trump. The Republican Party of Wyoming has "booted" her from the party's financial wing. She is a woman without a party. Still she votes against Joe Biden's agenda. She along with Adam Kinzinger, Anthony Gonzalez, Peter Meijer, Fred Upton, Jaime Herrera Beutler and Tom Rice gotten death threats for impeaching Trump. Cheney has often hit back at the Republicans for being hypocrites and showboats. She said that fighting Biden is good but denying truth and the election results will end democracy as we know it. Cheney is vowing to run regardless of who is challenging her in the election. Biden has been watching and he may find a place for her either in his administration or on federal court despite Democrats being wary that she could do more damage.

Rachel Levine - The first transgender woman to be the Deputy Secretary for Health. She is an American pediatrician and four-star admiral in the U.S. Public Health Service Commissioned Corps. She was appointed in March of 2021. Considered one of the point women in the fight against COVID-19, Levine has been on the frontlines trying to encourage Americans to get vaccinated. President Joe Biden picked her due to her leadership as Pennsylvania's Health Secretary. She managed to get a slim majority vote due to the Republicans obstruction of her. Only Susan Collins and Lisa Murkowski voted in favor of appointing Levine to the position. Many Republicans are questioning Levine's role. She brushes them off and does the job. 

Tucker Carlson - The white nationalist is now the No. 1 cable news host. It was a lot of failures before he became the face of Fox News. Tucker Carlson, the son of heirs to the Swanson Food Company found his voice as the prominent leader of conservative opinion and white nationalism. He is a political commentator and conspiracy theorist. He had his start on CNN as a host on Crossfire before leaving it for MSNBC. He would host the program for three years before leaving for Fox. Since joining Fox, he turned from an annoying conservative agitator to a full fledged white supremacist. He has advocated Donald J. Trump's conspiracies and white nationalist talking points. He has been a very popular voice in the anti-vaxx movement. His rhetoric has been considered dangerous in the media. He spreads misinformation about the election. He downplayed the insurrection and called for lawmakers to be confronted by protesters despite not liking it happening to him. Carlson has came a long way to being a voice of far-right policies. He blended his conservative views with white extremism and its a hit among Fox viewers.

Rachel Maddow - Is there a possibility that Rachel Maddow is leaving MSNBC? Not quite. But after her longtime partner got sick from COVID and nearly died, Maddow decided that it may be a time for her to slow down. Maddow is looking to end her show in 2022. But she is not leaving the network. She will stay on as a commentator and work on documentaries in the future. She along with Brian Williams have been the staple of the primetime on MSNBC. Maddow had enjoyed ratings success during the Trump years and Biden first year. She has been very instrumental in getting the ball rolling on holding Republicans accountable for the insurrection. She also has been very gifted in taking down misinformation about the vaccines and the coronavirus. Maddow had groomed successors to replace her if she does decide to end her show. We believe whomever replaces her will be a leader and winner like she is.

Nicolle Wallace - The host of Deadline: White House has enjoyed reasonable ratings. The host has now expanded her show to two hours and it's been laser focus on holding the former president accountable. Nicolle Wallace has gained an opportunity to shine where Chuck Todd failed. She took over his 5pm spot in 2021 when Todd was moved to 1pm for MTP: Daily. Wallace has praised President Joe Biden for taking on the challenges that his predecessor left. She has been giving opportunity to prominent Democrats and former Trump supporters interviews and airtime. She along with Rev. Al Sharpton, former senator Claire McCaskill and former congressman David Jolly have made an impact on the network's opinion coverage. Wallace has been the counter to Tucker Carlson and Sean "Softball" Hannity's whitewashing of the insurrection. Wallace is going in 2022 with a strength of holding Trump accountable where others ain't.

Joe Scarborough - The former Florida lawmaker turned political agitator has been one of the fastest members of the cable news battles. President Joe Biden watches the show. Even though MSNBC's Morning Joe is not close to Fox & Friends, it comes close to it within single digits. Joe and Mika Brzezinski have entertained millions of Americans who don't want to the noise of CNN and Fox News spoiling their breakfast. The two have gotten opportunities to interview big names within the Biden Administration. Biden often uses Morning Joe as a way to get his message out to American voters. At one time, Joe and Mika were good friends with Donald J. Trump. That turned sour when Trump became president and done things that made Joe, a lifelong Republican leave the party. He said that Trumpism became a cancer on the Republican Party. He said that the party doesn't even value the principles of Ronald Reagan. The party itself has fallen victim to the likes of Trump, Marjorie Taylor Greene, Fox News and OANN. Morning Joe has been one of the fastest growing programs in cable news. Joe and Mika signed on for a few more years.

Mika Brzezinski - As one half of the Morning Joe team, Mika has been very good at what she does. She has bagged big interviews with members of the Biden Administration. Previously on good terms with Donald J. Trump, Mika and Joe Scarborough were willing to give voice to a man who lies within lies. She was the woman who interviewed Biden during the Tara Reade allegations. She had to make the uncomfortable choice of confronting Biden on sexually assualt despite knowing him for years. She and Joe got married in 2018. Morning Joe has seen a rise in ratings and the two have signed on for more years helping progressives, moderates and even some conservatives get their cup of joe.

Joy Reid - Reid took the spot over in 2020 after Chris Matthews was forced off the air. Matthews was accused of sexual harassment and the network forced him to "retire." Reid got a second chance at working on the weekdays. After replacing Melissa Harris-Perry on weekends, her former show AM Joy managed to reach one to two million viewers. Her guest hosting on Chris Hayes, Rachel Maddow and Lawrence O'Donnell made her a perfect fit for the 7pm hour. Reid was promoted to the spot and now The Reid Out is one of the top programs on MSNBC. She has been controversial in her own right. Tucker Carlson has called her the "race lady." Nicki Minaj gets caught up in a lie about her cousin's friend. Reid called out Minaj and the two got into a heavy feud. The rapper was telling her supporters to not get vaccinated. It brought backlash towards her and Reid responded. Minaj blocked her and started to address Reid's controversial tweets and blog in which she called a Charlie Crist gay slurs. She also tore into Reid by calling her "Uncle Tomista." Reid brushed off the attacks and stated that folks like Carlson and Nicki Minaj are peddlers of false and misinformation. So far The Reid Out has been still a money maker. It's beating CNN and Fox News on a nightly basis. 

Kyle Rittenhouse - A white teen shot and killed two men, injured a third. Managed to get away with murder and now is the folk hero of the far-right. This teen traveled across state lines to join a militia group. In the wake of the Jacob Blake shooting by a police officer, Rittenhouse took it upon himself to be a "watcher" of violent protests. The militia group was antagonizing protesters. Rittenhouse allegedly tried to point a firearm at the protesters. The protesters reacted and charged at him. He shot them at point blank range. He managed to beat a court case and now he's taking himself into book deals, television appearances and fame. This man became the poster child of white privilege. A white nationalist who showed no ounce of remorse for his actions. He and the city of Kenosha are still being sued by the victim of that shooting. Wherever he goes he now has security. No school or business wants him. He is a pariah. But some of the Republican lawmakers who want to troll want to give him an internship.

The Taliban - A 20 year war and American diplomacy. The Taliban returns to power and the junk food media is upset over President Joe Biden for allowing it to happen. Biden continues to state that he's following the predecessor's draw down. Former president Donald J. Trump and former Secretary of State Mike Pompeo made a deal with the Taliban to do a formal withdraw and exit within 2021. Biden said that keeping Americans still in Afghanistan would be dangerous. He said that the Taliban had a truce with the American forces.

Mark Levin - A controversial talk radio host who has become the go to for all things Trump. Since Rush Limbaugh's passings, many far-right listeners need a voice to listen to. Many can't stand the noise coming out of Sean "Softball" Hannity's mouth. He's too much of an ass kisser. They need a voice who is going to call it like they see it. Mark Levin was that person.

Jacob Frey - Despite the Black Lives Matter and calls for his removal, the city of Minneapolis believe Jacob Frey does a good job. On top of that, the "Defund The Police" ballot measure failed in the 2021 election. In the wake of the George Floyd murder, Frey had promised to reform the Minneapolis Police and get things done with the community. He would win his election in 2021 despite many on the far-left hoping to score an upset against him.

Byron Brown - The Buffalo mayor who managed to defeat the Democratic nominee replacing him. In a unique way, Byron Brown managed to win a fifth term as mayor of New York state's second largest city. He ended up beating India Walton in an upset. After being beaten in the Democratic primary, Brown regrouped and worked on getting Democrats and Republicans to back him over India Walton. The Buffalo mayor followed the path like U.S. Representative Shontel Brown of Ohio. Focus on being a lawmaker and not an activist. Brown won because of that and now will serve his fifth term as mayor of the city.

Lauren Boebert - The Colorado congresswoman is one of the many agitators who have gain a following for her fiery rhetoric. Her rhetoric is controversial. From a restaurant in western Colorado to defeating a Republican member endorsed by Donald J. Trump, Lauren Boebert has become a voice to the young generation of conservatives and white nationalists. She operates her Shooter's Grille outside of Golden, Colorado and heads to Washington, DC to become a rabble rouser and annoyance to those on the left. She became a troll when she showed up at Mar-a-Lago wearing a white dress with the words "Let's Go Brandon" and calling Minnesota lawmaker Ilhan Omar a member of the "Jihad Squad." The lawmaker has been telling lies and half-truths. She says she'll wear her firearm on the House floor. Ain't happening. She said that Nancy Pelosi was leaving the House floor during the insurrection. Many believe she was guiding the mob to her. Boebert denied that. Right? She allegedly allowed members of the Oath Keepers into the Capitol for an unauthorized tour. That's coming up in the investigation. She offers half-ass apologies for her actions but still continues to double down. Like Marjorie Taylor Greene, Boebert has no legislative accomplishments and she's just there to be an activist. Boebert, Marjorie Taylor Greene, Cori Bush, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and Ilhan Omar are the least productive members of Congress. They act like activists instead of lawmakers. And I believe they'll either focus on their jobs passing laws or continue these petty games for clout. Boebert is a clout chaser who won over folks. But at the end of the day, Coloradoans will pay the price when they realize that funding for roads and bridges ain't coming because she voted against it.

Barack Obama - Always a winner in my opinion. A guy who served two terms, helped his vice president become the current president, always humble and loving to his wife Michelle and daughters Malia and Sasha. The 44th President of the United States is always a role model to Black America. He paved the way for Kamala Harris and Shontel Brown. He gave Black men and women an opportunity to grow and succeed. Despite the haters and the noise of the far-left, Obama still got the job done. Now he is being rewarded for his accomplishments by having the building of his presidential library and museum in Chicago. Thank you Barack for doing all you can to "Make America Great Again." I couldn't thank Donald J. Trump for that. He literally led us to death with this pandemic. Had Obama been in charge, he would have taken action quickly.

Whether you agree with me or not! This is what 2021 was....divisive.

Are you glad 2021 is over with?

Yes

No

So many lives lost to the pandemic. So many things not done despite the Democrats in control. So much racism in the country. 

We need to get things back to normal, fast!

The only thing I got in the predictions is someone (you know) is likely going to get the coronavirus. Someone you know may die from the coronavirus. President Joe Biden hopefully get his agenda passed before the Midterm elections. There will be more celebrities and politicians that will pass away. There will be more mass shootings, more police shootings of unarmed people of color and nothing being done with gun violence. There will be more major natural disasters. There could be a possible government shutdown once Congress attempts to raise the debt ceiling and fund the government. Of course, former president Donald J. Trump will find some way to continue trolling.

Who knows what happens next?
