At this point, we are assuming President Donald Trump has a giant dartboard on the wall of the Oval Office with random phrases on it, and that's how he finds his newest ways to complain about that election that he really actually lost. 

The latest culprit? The bookies! The "so-called bookies," Trump tweeted, thought he was going to win on Election Night, so therefore President-elect Joe Biden couldn't have possibly won. 

The bookies also thought Hillary Clinton was going to win in 2016, and we all know how that turned out.

Texascapades

Meanwhile, there's a very weird complaint filed by the Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton attempting to overturn the election results in four other states. The attorney general of one of those states, Michigan, was very much not amused and popped up on CNN Wednesday to just absolutely scorch Paxton -- both for the lawsuit and for his own personal legal troubles. 

Lawyers who aren't named Sidney Powell have pretty much universally panned Paxton's lawsuit as having less than a snowball-in-Hades' chance of success, but the president is undeterred, vowing that he will join the lawsuit as an intervenor. Oh, and he had some thoughts he shared on Twitter too.

Democratic election lawyer Mark Elias scoffed at the Texas suit as "bizarro world desperation."

Ingraham accuses Zuck of bribing Georgia Republicans

Yep, it's as nutty as it sounds. Fox News' Laura Ingraham suggested that the reason that those pesky Georgia Republican elected officials keep refusing to overturn their own state's election is because they're "on the take" from sources like Wall Street and Facebook's Mark Zuckerberg. 

Cowards!

Ingraham's colleague Lou Dobbs -- who, by the way, is not a lawyer -- was really annoyed that the Supreme Court rejected one of the Pennsylvania cases seeking to overturn the election, calling the court "very cowardly."

Mayor Pete going to China?

Former South Bend Mayor and surprisingly competitive presidential candidate Pete Buttigieg is reportedly being considered for a key Biden administration role like ambassador to China. 

Newsmax maxed out?

Conservative media outlet Newsmax scored their first-ever ratings win over Fox News, but several media observers are skeptical they can maintain that dominance. Among the skeptics: CNN's Don Lemon.

Biden makes Defense pick

Biden has named retired Gen. Lloyd Austin as his pick for Secretary of Defense. Austin would be the first Black man to head the Pentagon, but his nomination is controversial because confirmation would require a waiver for the rule requiring a civilian to take the role; Austin is too recently retired to qualify without a specific waiver.

Snowball Express goes virtual

Hollywood star Gary Sinise has worked very hard to use his celebrity power for good causes, supporting a variety of worthwhile veterans' charities. 

The Snowball Express is an annual project of the Gary Sinise Foundation, sending the families of fallen soldiers to Disney World. Due to the pandemic, the trip wasn't possible this year, but Sinise got a big gang of his friends together to record a message for the families as part of a virtual celebration. 

With the vaccine finally on the horizon, we're starting to see the light at the end of the tunnel, and the foundation plans to resume sponsoring the theme park trips again next Christmas.  

Watch the uplifting video, featuring stars like Tom Hanks, Angelina Jolie, Chris Pratt, Keanu Reeves, Jimmy Kimmel, Garth Brooks, Trisha Yearwood, Kaley Cuoco, Shania Twain, Jay Leno, Michael Strahan, Robin Roberts, and even Tim Allen reprising his Toy Story role as Buzz Lightyear.
