Former New Jersey Governor Chris Christie is ready to throw his hat back into the ring for President of the United States.
Initially broken by Axios, reports Wednesday indicate Christie will announce his intentions to run as a Republican next Tuesday at a Town Hall meeting in Manchester, New Hampshire.
Christie has become a staunch critic of former President Donald Trump, after being a huge supporter of his during Trump’s initial run at the White House in 2016. The former two-term Governor was even the head of Trump’s transition team, and prepped him for debates with current President Joe Biden back in 2020.
Christie is no stranger to this stage having run a failed attempt at the GOP nomination back in 2016.
The former governor served New Jersey from 2010-2018. Prior to his run as Governor, Christie was the U.S. District Attorney for the Garden State.
In addition to being governor, Christie was constantly in the public eye, and sometimes the center of controversy. Town Hall meetings were always interesting, where he not only engaged with constituents, but butt-heads with his harshest critics.
Controversy did follow the governor. In 2013 Christie became linked to the closure of two lanes in Fort Lee due to what many termed political retribution against Fort Lee’s Democratic mayor, a scandal that ended in two Christie aids going to prison. Christie was not criminally charged. In 2017 he drew heat for the infamous beach photo just after the beaches and state parks were closed due to a government shutdown. And, who could forget Christie hanging out with Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones?

Bob’s Burgers, in my opinion, is one of the best animated shows on network television right now. The show is witty and heartfelt and can be enjoyed by teens and adults alike. The show has been a comfort show for me for years now, and every time I find myself in need of something to put on, my brain instantly thinks of Bob’s Burgers.
Bob’s Burgers premiered in 2011. In 2022, The Bob’s Burgers Movie hit theaters, adding to the ongoing madness narrative of the Belcher family at the center of the show and their restaurant. Obviously, the restaurant specializes in burgers, many of which are fun, unique and punny creations that are featured as the “Burger of the Day.”
The Belcher family is led by Bob and Linda. They have three children: Tina, a boy-crazy teen who writes “erotic friend-fiction”; Gene, a musically-inclined young boy who drops pop culture references way older than him; and Louise, the youngest child with a quick wit, a short fuse and is probably too smart for her own good.
I won’t toot my own horn and say that I’m the show’s “Ulitmate Fan,” but I will say that I am one of many ultimate Bob’s Burgers fans in the world. And because of that, I’ve had a burning need to find stuff from the hit show that I can treasure.
With the holiday season upon us, in all of its stressful glory, here are just 13 items we think the ultimate Bob’s Burgers fan in your life would love to receive.
