    Wait, Did the President Fall Asleep During Queen's State Banquet Speech?

    President Trump is having quite the time across the pond. Since his visit to the United Kingdom, there have been protests and even dick pics so it’s safe to say that unless the White House shipped Trump’s sleeping coffin, he’s probably not getting much sleep. On Monday, during a state banquet where the Queen of…

    Trump Administration Cancels English Classes, Soccer, Ping-Pong, Legal Aid for Migrant Children in U.S. Shelters

    Just when you think the Trump administration can fall no lower than they already have, the entire White House hands American their Pabst Blue Ribbon. In what can only be described as gutless and utterly heartless, the Trump administration has canceled all remotely humane activities for migrant children, most of whom are living in cages…

  • Texas Teacher Outs Herself on Twitter as MAGA-t Who Wants to Help Trump Round Up 'Illegal Students' in Her School

    Georgia Clark is an English teacher in Fort Worth, Texas. Much like the president of the United States, she’s not fond of undocumented immigrants attending Carter-Riverside High School, where she’s been a teacher since 1998. So, Clark decided that she would take to Twitter, much like the president, and make her bigotry known. There was…

  • Trump Claims He Doesn’t See the Big-Ass Trump Blimp Baby Protesting His Visit in London

    It’s time that we come to accept that the United Kingdom does many things better than the United States. Its healthcare system actually cares about the patients more than the profits. The Office U.K. is easily better than its U.S. counterpart. And the U.K. protests way better than the U.S.; they make robots and fun…

  • Trump’s Clearly Watching Sons of Anarchy Reruns Again, Channels Jax Teller With New Hair Style

    President Donald J. Trump, who tells everyone that his middle initial stands for Jax (which is totally a lie unless he’s shortening “jackass” to just “jax”), channeled his inner Sons of Anarchy during a memorial service for Virginia Beach shooting victims at McLean Bible Church, in Vienna, Va. It was Trump’s eighth time in a…

  • Someone Get Kim Kardashian on the Phone: Trump's Campaign Chairman Paul Manafort Headed to Rikers Island

    I am sure that Kim Kardashian is already on top of this but Paul Manafort, the president’s one-time campaign chairman who’s serving a federal prison sentence, is heading to the notorious Rikers Island jail in New York City where he’s expected to spend his time in solitary confinement while he awaits state fraud charges.

    Jared Kushner, the president’s son-in-law and holder of a top-level security clearance as an adviser to Trump, participated in a one-on-one sit down with Axios on HBO that can only be described as a one-night-stand between a drunken circus clown and a shitshow that then gave birth to a Jared Kushner interview. During the interview…

    Klay Thompson to Drake: 'See You in the Bay, Aubrey. Weren’t Talking Tonight, Were Ya? With Your Bum Ass'

    The rapper Drake doesn’t play basketball. In fact, after losing leg mobility to gun violence in high school, when he went by the name Jimmy, Drake was confined to a wheelchair and therefore was unable… Managing Editor Genetta Adams: Steve, Drake isn’t in a wheelchair, that was his character when he played on Degrassi: The…

    He’s the son of a single mom and already has an endorsement from Luke Skywalker. (Fine, it’s actor Mark Hamill, who played Skywalker, who showed love—but if I said that Hamill endorsed him, would you even have known who he was?) He’s running a campaign under the hashtag #SendLindseyHome—as in President Trump’s favorite whipping boy,…

    Professor Who Has Correctly Predicted 9 Presidential Elections Picks Trump in 2020 Unless Dems Impeach Him

    Here’s to hoping that Trump isn’t a sure thing. But if I were a betting man, I’d have to put money on whatever Allan Lichtman says. Who is Allan Lichtman, you ask? Well, he’s a political historian and an American University professor but more importantly, he’s correctly predicted the last nine presidential elections. Sadly, Lichtman…
