1. The Durak Report January 22, Anno Domini 2026

Spicy extra words today ^_^ I watched a couple hearings.

1.1. WATCH LIVE: Nick Shirley testifies before Congress on Minnesota fraud scandal

I can't believe that kid is sitting in front of a committee at this age. Gratz! Nick!

1.2. WATCH LIVE: House moves to hold Bill, Hillary Clinton in contempt for defying subpoenas

Just watch it or read below if you care.

1.3. President Trump Delivers a Special Address to the World Economic Forum

Mostly his normal speech, but he vowed not to attack Greenland.

1.4. Trump Truths That Greenland Is Largely Settled

Told y'all the tariffs were just to get the ball rolling

1.5. EU free trade pact on hold as farmers revolt

Told y'all it's a bad idea.

1.6. Putin offers $1bn to Trump’s ‘peace board’

We're not ready to join, go ahead and take 1 Billion of our American frozen assets for the board of piece. Use the rest on post war Ukraine/Russian recovery.

2. Extra words nobody asked for

2.1. WATCH LIVE: Nick Shirley testifies before Congress on Minnesota fraud scandal

Wow, can you imagine testifying at the house as a young reporter? Crazy. It's one thing to go viral, but this dude went viral and was involved with the nations largest story.

So, what happened? Nothing really. Republicans talked about Minnesota fraud, all the Democrats didn't talk about it, but instead wasted time talking about Federal government fraud.

They should be held in contempt for discussing unrelated issues.

Putting stuff on the official record is need a though. We do learn that legitimate autism businesses are getting extra scrutiny, while the fraudsters are left alone. Often due to threats of racism suits.

After that I switch over to the Clinton contempt for defying subpoenas live stream, and what is MS. Ansari rambling on about? Epstine. Come on Democrats, please talk about the issue at hand.

2.2. WATCH LIVE: House moves to hold Bill, Hillary Clinton in contempt for defying subpoenas

Ms. Randall says that she represents her people, and that I'm not here to protect former presidents or toeing party lines. Awesome.

Ms. Tlaib goes off on what-aboutisms, but she's largely got the right take.

Ms, Stansbury open by being a total bitch. And then precedes to mind-read people's intent. She continues her bitchiness towards Trump going to Sweden. Also accuses him of going after Venusian and Greenland because of Epstine documents. So she's a psycho bitch.

I didn't watch from before Ms. Randall, but many of these Democrats want to complain about Pam Bondi and other's not appearing for subpoenas even though they are currently scheduled to show up. Now, if they skip out on these future dates, then yea. Problems.

They also complain about Epstine files not being fully released yet. Using that as a reason to attack Pam Bondi. While legit criticism, they also try to use it as what-aboutisms to defend the Clintons. The difference here, is that the justice department is releasing stuff. They may be half-assing it, but it's more than what the Clintons are doing. Which seems to be largely trying to avoid showing up.

Stansbury was talking later, and was very polite. Funny how they switch around. Oh, and the chairman was being a dick at this point. Mehbe she's just nice when she's not doing her prepared points.

Nothing else interesting happened before they recessed, I'm done.

3. Thanks to everyone who reads my little posts here. May you all have a blessed day.
