Can anybody help me find a picture of pajama boy from the healthcare commercials, please?

Former House Speaker Paul Ryan (R-Wisc.) said he was “sobbing” as he watched the Jan 6, 2021 attack at the Capitol happen, according to a new book. In Atlantic journalist’s Mark Leibovich’s new book, “Thank You For Your Servitude,” Ryan said he felt “disturbed” about what was taking place in a building in which he spend most of his political life, according to CNN. “I spent my whole adult life in that building,” Ryan told Leibovich in the book. “And I saw my friends, a lot of cops, some of my old security detail – I’m still friends with a...

The Macy’s employee brutally beaten inside a Michigan mall is requesting leniency for his attacker — who testified this week that his brother falsely claimed the store manager called him a racial slur. Damire Palmer, 18, pleaded guilty Wednesday to the caught-on-video June 15 attack at the Flint store, local outlet WJRT-TV reported.

VIDEO Because Rush Limbaugh labeled the White House "whistleblower" as a Pajama Boy, I became curious as to what happened to the ORIGINAL Pajama Boy, Ethan Krupp, who became infamous in a widely mocked Obamacare poster in 2013. My search revealed that Krupp has completely eliminated any trace of himself from the Web and nothing at all can be found about him now anywhere. It is like he has disappeared from the planet due to the shame over his mocking. This video also reveals a some fascinating background material on Pajama Boy Krupp which shows that he had a...

Democrats are in a panic as the secret identity of their fabled whistleblower has been revealed and it shows they are not unbiased. The identity of the whistleblower has been referred to as an “open secret” in Washington, D.C., but now that name could be known to everyone, Real Clear Investigations reported. But the name of a government official fitting that description — Eric Ciaramella — has been raised privately in impeachment depositions, according to officials with direct knowledge of the proceedings, as well as in at least one open hearing held by a House committee not involved in the...

Has anybody noticed the resemblance between these two?

Marguerite Moniot felt frustrated and flummoxed. Despite the many hours she had spent in front of the computer this year reading consumer reviews of health insurance plans offered on the individual market in Virginia, she still did not know what plan was right for her.

Remember Pajama Boy? The cocoa-sipping, onesie-wearing man-child and Obamacare spokesmodel? Look around you. He's EVERYWHERE now thanks to our Obamacare-addled culture. Here's how we went from 'give me liberty or give me death' to 'give me safe spaces or I'll tell my mom.' So, if you’re spending this weekend signing up for yet another Obamacare open enrollment season, and awaiting another year of budget-busting premiums and collapsing coverage, here’s some food for thought about how we got here.

But Pelosi persevered, at least for now, staving off her challengers and critics by reminding them that she is a…wait for it…”master legislator”. That claim is a laughable lie, but if Pelosi knows one thing, it is that Democrats love, love, love being lied to, which of course is why she rose to power in the first place. So things calmed down for her, but she was far from out of the woods, and many observers have remained concerned there could be more moves to oust her as next year’s mid-term elections approach. So, by now you’re wondering why I...

RUSH: This is a website called Intellectual Takeout. Snerdley, pay attention. You’ll like this. Headline: “Clinical Psychologist: Women ‘Hate’ Harmless Men.” You know, every so often, folks, these stories cross our proverbial desk here. Every six months or so you get a story about male-female relationships of the day and how they’ve changed, you know, what men look for in women today versus 20 years ago, 30 years ago, and vice versa. And we have another one today from a clinical psychologist claiming — his name is Jordan Peterson is the clinical psychologist, professor of psychology University of Toronto. He’s...

Jon Ossoff, the Democratic candidate in the GA-06 special congressional election, is still struggling to properly explain why he doesn’t currently live in the district. Republicans have attacked Ossoff for living outside of the district, which he says he does to support his fiancee’s career. MSNBC’s Stephanie Ruhle asked Ossoff why he doesn’t just move to the district if it could potentially help him win. “It’s very easy to solve where you live,” Ruhle said. “While people respect you across the board, your desire to support your fiancee…with every point counting, why not just move?” “Well, Steph, voters just aren’t...

To those who still believe that President Trump is a big dummy, without a strategic bone in his body, I pose one question: If Trump had not fired James Comey how long would it have taken to find out that a) Trump was not the subject of any investigation b) there is no collusion c) there is no obstruction of justice. And if Trump hadn’t sent out this tweet: how different might James Comey’s testimony have been? “The President tweeted on Friday, after I got fired, that I better hope there's not tapes. I woke up in the middle of...

Face it: losers like socialism because it allows them access to money and goods that they would not be able to acquire through their own powers.  So it should surprise nobody that an academic study finds that poor upper body strength in males correlates with socialist views.  Amanda Prestigiacomo writes at the Daily Wire: An academic study from researchers at Brunel University London assessed 171 men, looking at their height, weight, overall physical strength and bicep circumference, along with their views on redistribution of wealth and income inequality. The study, published in the Evolution and Human Behavior journal, ​found that weaker men were more likely...

The most expensive congressional race in U.S. history has again dispelled the myth that conservatives are the aggressors in the moral wars that plague our politics. As Kyle Wingfield of the Atlanta-Journal Constitution recently pointed out, in the race to replace Tom Price in Georgia’s 6th congressional district, it was only a matter of time before Jon Ossoff went after Karen Handel for her brief experience at the Susan G. Komen organization. And like almost every other liberal when it comes to matters involving abortion, Ossoff lied. The ad uses an OB-GYN corrupted by liberalism—Mindy Fine from Cobb County, Georgia...

Just thinking...PJ Boy is probably busy registering for Obamacare 2017, but I'm wondering how he's coping with electoral reality. Didn't see him at the Javits Center on TV election night.

“I haven’t slept in my room since the election.” That is the exact headline of an op-ed recently published in The Washington Post by Ian Ware, a sophomore at the University of Virginia studying foreign affairs and American studies. Ware writes he’s avoided his dorm and instead slept on couches, futons, floors and unoccupied beds in his friends’ homes.

Western civilization is clearly coming part at the seams. There are so many destructive elements at work, they are almost impossible to list. But one of the most destructive of these elements, incited by a punitive feminist ideology, is the relentless campaign to delegitimize the very idea of manhood. And the most effective way to do that is to impugn male sexuality. We are told constantly that we live in a virtual rape culture, a culture in which rape is widespread and condoned, victims are blamed, and rapists receive little or no punishment. There are rape cultures in the world....

During the showdown over Obamacare, the pro-Obama PAC Organizing for Action put out an ad now known as “Pajama Boy.” It showcased a young fellow in thick retro-rimmed glasses, wearing black-and-red plaid children’s-style pajamas, and sipping from a mug, with a sort of all-knowing expression on his face. The text urged: “Wear pajamas. Drink hot chocolate. Talk about getting health insurance. #GetTalking.” Most men in Dayton or Huntsville do not lounge around in the morning in their pajamas, with or without built-in footpads, drinking hot chocolate and scanning health-insurance policies. That our elites either think they do, or think the...

What exactly has birthed the Pajama Boy aristocracy — our overclass of pretentious, inexperienced, and smug 30-something masters of the universe? Prolonged adolescence? Affluence? The disappearance of physical chores and muscular labor? The collapse of traditional liberal education and the triumph of the therapeutic mindset? Disdain for or ignorance of life outside the Boston–New York–Washington corridor? Political correctness as a sort of careerist indemnity that allows one to live a sheltered and apartheid existence? The shift in collective values and status from production, agriculture, and manufacturing to government, law, finance, and media? The reinvention of the university as a social-awareness...

Meet the 30-somethings who are running our federal government. “Cleverness is not wisdom.” — Euripides, Bacchae What exactly has birthed the Pajama Boy aristocracy — our overclass of pretentious, inexperienced, and smug 30-something masters of the universe?
