    If there was one place that lovers of cops who kill unarmed Black people could go and rejoice with their people it should be Fox News, and even that is becoming less of a sacred space. The wheels in the tricycle of evil aligned as Geraldo Rivera and Dan Bongino faced off on Sean Hannity’s…

    NC High School Basketball Coach Killed Trying to Rob Notorious Mexican Drug Cartel

    *My great grandfather Ferguson Rotimi Jebediah Crockett once took me on his knee and told me about life. “Stephen,” he said. “There are three things in life that you don’t fuck with: the IRS, white women, and the Sinaloa cartel.” I have made it all my life only fucking up on one of those credos…

  • Florida Governor Wants Tighter Restrictions on Mail-In Ballots Despite His Ballot Being Tossed in 2016

    Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis is the Cliff Clavin of Michael Scotts. He’s your favorite idiot’s favorite idiot. He is literally one of the dumbest men in the world, which is Republican for “He may be president someday.” DeSantis, more like DeGoFuckYourself, is one of a few Republican governors who wants to put tighter restrictions on…

    There are so many things going on in this one news clip that I don’t even know where to start. But let’s take it from the top. On Tuesday, Sen. John Kennedy, (R-La.), went on Republican Spankwire, also known as Fox News, to talk about the police killing of Daunte Wright. That is the first…

    Black America’s president for life, Barack Obama, took to Twitter to call for a “a full and transparent investigation” into the fatal police shooting of Daunte Wright and for America to “reimagine policing,” which in layman terms means to stop shooting unarmed Black people. “Our hearts are heavy over yet another shooting of a Black…

    White America’s Favorite Honey Baked Ham Is in Twitter Jail After Coming for BLM Co-Founder for Buying House in White Neighborhood

    Sports pariah and white America’s favorite lapdog Jason Whitlock is unfortunately a Black man. As such, Whitlock has found a niche in life in which his whole modus operandi is to denounce, bash, and destroy the Movement for Black Lives. Whitlock hates Black people. He hates progressive Black people even more. He really hates Black…

    Why the Virginia Cop Who Pepper-Sprayed the Black Lieutenant Is Just Now Losing His Job

    White America is exhausting. Their racism is maddening. Their reasonings, their faux outrage, their hatred for Colin Kaepernick’s kneeling, their complacency for Derek Chauvin’s knee to the neck of a Black man. And I keep getting caught up in it. We all do. Before we didn’t have proof. Technology hadn’t caught up with white America’s…

    Whew Chile, the Ghetto: Geraldo Rivera Comes for Black Fox News Guest’s Hood Pass

    Geraldo Rivera will forever have the soul of Al Capone’s nationally televised bank vault. The mustached drifter will forever be an empty, vapid windbag who loves him some hot takes washed down with some sound bites.
