We would like to give our warmest wishes and appreciation to all of our listeners. Many of us have been together virtually for a number of years and proves the fact that family extends far beyond blood, because we are family by choice rather than issue. For this we are blessed and look forward to many more years to come! Happy Holidays and may our New Year be a bright one!

Everybody sing! “Johnny wants a pair of skates, Susie wants a doll, Donnie wants a peephole in the girls room at the mall . . .” But he’ll settle for an airport . . . or an aircraft carrier. Sheesh! The UK gets a harder Brexit than BoJo wanted. Brexiters stare, mouths agape. Some “Relief Bill!” Now Covid Caligula is trying to blow up the deal. Understanding the power dynamics of the Democratic majority. Ideas on who should be Biden’s A.G. Nothing says MAGA like pardoning a stone-cold killer war criminal.

Thanks to everyone who’s responded to my oral surgery crowd-funding campaign. For anyone who’d like to help, it’s here.

Come one, come all! The Moran Monday tent is open! Freedom Squares! Unintentionally honest legal pleadings! Marion Robertson gets within a mile of the facts! Covidonga lines in NYC! Aiyeeeeee! Don’t spend your $600 all in one place! Aren’t we all just so grateful to our glorious leader, Chinless Mitch McConnell? Well, aren’t we?!?!

I have to have oral surgery sooner rather than later. There’s a GoFundMe to support it. If I could do it out of my own pocket, you may rest assured I would. If you’d like to help, just click this link: Oral surgery. Ouch.

 

Welcome back to another Virtual Civics discussion with your Host, Dr. Bill Obrien!

2020 has been a rather seditious year in politics and we still have a way to go until the inauguration of the newly elected president. It’s been a nail biter to imagine what’s coming next from the White House, whether it be digging another moat for a swimming pool, or a new outbreak of a virus due to the medical advice of favorite physicians from within their circle of trust to not vaccinate. We’ve been riding a pandemic wave and talks of Marshall Law have tainted to holiday air…not exactly a discussion one should be having given the 14th Amendment clearly states that’s a big no no with severe penalties for the perpetrator. 

In the second hour we discussed conversations that have been had on the program with our guest, Dr. Kevin Shanley, in regards to China and U.S. relations. It’s insightful to have input from experts that give you a global perspective on exactly what we’re faced with if we can’t repair the damage that’s been incurred by recklessness and disregard for the people it impacts. That would be all of us.

Please have a safe and happy holiday and may your happiness be with the ones you love. We’re all family here.

The screwage continues as the Biden Transition team continues to try to do its job against monumental odds. The “Acting” (some act!) SecDef unilaterally stopped briefings at the Pentagon. The Nitwit Nero crime syndicate hustled $617M from the funds they raised from their deplorable rubes. Somehow, vaccines seem not to be getting into the right arms. 

What a program! Too many topics to list!

Head for the hills! Joe Biden has a transraygun and he’s gonna turn the military all transgender! Aiyeeeee! EVILgelicals call for martial law and troops in the streets. Charlie Kirk gets furious with Moscow Mitch! You go, boy! Who knew you could steal a bank? Guess what’s legal in WV? Mercifully, it has nothing to do with cucumbers. Allergic reactions to the Dondemci vaccine being reported. We knew it all along: the MAGAT White House wanted America to get sick for “herd immunity.” Managers get the sack in Iowa. A thing incoming VP Kamala Harris really can do.

Anti-vaxxers merge into MAGATS to bizarre effect (of course). Oath Keeper terrorist threatens bloody civil war. Nothing happens (of course). Hey! Why would Trump need the vaccine? Didn’t he say he could never get it again? One word: cucumbers (meal ruination alert). Can the MAGATS really screw up the election on January 6?

Thank you for joining in on our continuing conversation about everything that keeps us and our nation functioning. The Virtual Center is more than education, it’s a community. We strive to bring issues that we face in our general existence to light such as the economy, trade, education, and health. Throughout history we’ve faced dark times and we came through them together. This isn’t any different. 

Thank you for your continued support. 

The MAGATS are growing more and more testy. This weekend, they decided to cosplay Mississippi Burning by stealing BLM signs from black churches in DC and torching them in the street. So far, the DC po-po are strangely silent-ish. MAGAT lawyer tells MAGATS to hoard supplies and guns. Mo Brooks (Less Braims) says he and his disloyal colleagues are the “final word” on who gets to be President. What does the vaccine roll-out actually mean? 

Welcome back for the holiday edition of The Virtual Center! Let’s talk about sedition and what it could mean for more than a few states involved with the election mayhem. Consequences have actions, and it’s not better to act first and ask forgiveness later. The actions that’s taking place in our country today were what our Founders feared, but tried to be prepared for within the guide of the Constitution. We weren’t only unprepared, we’re malevolent about it. According to our voting record there were a lot of folks voting for the same people all over again. Mindboggling isn’t it? Just remember, what affects your neighbor will eventually impact you as well. Be wise in your choices and you won’t have to worry about the consequences. 

Please join us for a continued conversation on our nation, it’s people, and our continued civic duty to learn about the forces beyond our walls that influence how we interact with everyone around us. United We Stand, Divided We Fall.

History doesn’t repeat, but it does rhyme. Proof from two events 159 years apart. What it means when the Tyrant, Mitch McConnell says he wants to protect businesses against COVID-based lawsuits. Me? I’ve never been happier to be wrong about a piece of breaking news . . . but somehow I also managed to be right! 

Whatever the MAGATS complain of, they have either already done or plan to do. It might as well be a scientific law, like Gravity or Boyle’s Gas Laws . . . and herein lies the proof. Also: USB ports! Aiyeeeeee! Death Panels decided Rudy Colludy lives, but 300,000 have died . . . including the new Speaker of the NH House. One of his Republican colleagues placed the blame squarely where it belongs. The stupid lawsuit filed by the accused felon AG of Texas refuses to go away. Darlene and I do a deep dive into an issue that plagues the Congress.

Glory! Kenny Copeland can’t cure the ‘Rona (he doesn’t even believe it exists), but he’s gone to work curing baldness! Praise! EVILgelicals plan big shindigs where they’ll walk in circles come Saturday. Rick Wiles wants firing squads for Democrats. Maskhole covidiots attack Idaho county commissioner’s home. Ammonium Bundy says he has a right to see faces at his trial and demands masks not be used. Know what’s scary? Amy Covid Barrett a/k/a Justice Handmaid and the other cultists on SCOTUS might agree with him. Seventeen MAGAT states have joined indicted Texas A.G. Ken Paxton in trying to impose their will on states that didn’t vote the way the MAGATs wanted.

Late posting of Tuesday’s program due to tech issues.

Tis the season to love your fellow man, yet most of us aren’t seeing the love. We revisited yesterday’s topic regarding Pope Francis and what he was trying to impart, we must take care of each other. Love thy neighbor as you love thy self and give aid to those who are venerable. We’re doing the exact opposite of what this very season has represented to the Christian faith since it was established. This isn’t a sermon, it’s a lesson that ensures our survival as a species. As Dr. Bill would say, be kind to one another.

We also discussed author and columnist, Arthur Brooks, and his recent article in the Atlantic on Happiness. His research and his views seem to suggest that we all can find our Shangri-La if we but look, and evolve about the prodding for ultimate success to find a balance in just living.

Thank you for your continuing support of the Virtual Center. We value your time that you spend with us because it’s precious. That’s a treasure beyond anything else in this universe.

Republican Robot Industries have finally rolled out the successor model to 2012’s RomneyBot. Behold the LoefflerBot! It walks! It talks! It can make insider stock deals! It can call an African-America servant of Jesus Christ a “socialist.” The Supreme Court’s five religious maniacs have decided they are Defenders of the Faith. A discourse on the Electoral College and how it has worked disastrously every time it has defeated the will of the popular vote. A sad statement of fact out of Alabama. Hey! That’s no ankle boot!

In today’s program we revisited last Tuesday’s discussion with Dr. Kevin Shanley on our interactions with China and what they could mean for our future. Not wanting to enter into a Thucydides Trap would be an excellent choice in judgment because we may not like the results. We also discussed the propagandization of wearing masks… to wear or not to wear isn’t a question, it’s a certain causation. Let’s not spread the plague, but spread the kindness unto each individual and live together rather than die  completely alone and isolated. It really doesn’t’ have to end this way,

We begin with a story out of the UK I haven’t seen much reported in American for-profit media. Beating up a fragile, marginalized community under the guise of “concern” isn’t liberal. It’s sadistic. Also: can Nitwit Nero pardon himself? The Front Porch Extraordinary Ordinary Roundtable wants to know. Washington Journal asks: “Joe Biden: Communist Rosicrucian Fascist or Son of Satan? Buddy the Beefalo is still on the lam. 

We finished the week underfunded by $350. On top of that, I have to raise $5K for badly needed oral surgery at month’s end. Any help is good help. And appreciated more than you can know.

Roses aren’t the only things with thorns. There are sticker bushes that are nothing but thorns. Come on down to Dimwit Donnie’s Drilling Den! Arctic oil leases for cheap! That’s where we are. Witness Ghouliani’s Madness in Michigan tour, featuring the at-the-least spiritual successor to Caribou Barbie and Victoria Jackson. “But the poll books!” And hey! We’ve found voter fraud in Georgia.
