An Idiotic Superfecta and an Oddly Ironic (funny?) Sign

 You've heard of a trifecta (picking 3 in a row), but a Superfecta means picking first place, second place, third place and fourth place finishers in order.  Today's news brings a Superfecta of Idiots... but to start on a funny/ironic note, there's a California Highway sign to ponder.

IRONIC SIGN- The Interstate Turnoff For California's Donner Lake Apparently Has Dining Options . If you know the History, that’s just squirmy.  The lake is named after the Donner Party, a group of Midwestern pioneers who were forced to spend the winter of 1846–47 in the Sierra Nevada mountain range.  Legend has it that some of the members survived by eating others in their party, though a more recent archeological study turned up no physical evidence of cannibalism.

THE IDIOTIC SUPERFECTA!

IDIOT - JAN. 6 SUSPECT ARRESTED AFTER RUNNING TOWARD OBAMA HOUSE - An armed (criminal) man who has been previously identified as a participant in the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the Capitol was arrested Thursday near former President Barack Obama's home in Washington. 

IDIOT – MIKE PENCE SAYS HIS WHITE KIDS ARE SOMEHOW PROOF AFFIRMATIVE ACTION IS NO LONGER NEEDED- Former Vice President Mike Pence bizarrely pointed to his own white family of college graduates while praising the U.S. Supreme Court’s decision Thursday to end affirmative action across most institutions of higher education. Colleges and universities across the country have had affirmative action policies in place for decades in order to promote more racially diverse student bodies.

IDIOTIC STATE POLITICS - FLORIDA LOSES BUSINESS DUE TO ANTI-LGBTQ LAWS  - A major pole-dancing convention known as PoleCon won't hold their event in Orlando in 2024 out of concern for their attendees, which include people of various genders and ages and some in drag. Gov. Ron DeSantis (R) has signed laws targeting the LGBTQ+ community. “It’s just too risky to go to Florida,” said Colleen Jolly, the group's CEO.

IDIOT-  CLARENCE THOMAS and OTHER CONSERVATIVES FINALLY GET WHAT THEY WANT - The Supreme Court declared affirmative action programs at universities unconstitutional, ending systems designed to help Black and Latino students access higher education after centuries of discrimination. For Justice Clarence Thomas, it's personal — he has long wanted to end the policy he benefited from!!   Add that to removing abortion rights, weakened rights of LGBTQ people and killing President Biden's student loan forgiveness program
