  • We Miss You: Obama Holds 1st Speech Post-Presidency 

    Former President Barack Obama is totally the girl who broke up with us and knows our new girlfriend is an airhead who’s verbally abusive and thinks we could do better. And we, progressive America, are the boyfriend who wants her back. It’s been three months since our breakup with Obama, and we’ve had to endure…

  • Adrien Broner Is Boxing With Death and I Hope He’s Got Another Round in Him

    It’s time for Adrien Broner to grow up and get serious about his boxing gift before it’s too late. The former four-division titlist at one time appeared to be the heir to Floyd Mayweather’s throne, but a series of arrests, allegations and, not to mention, losses inside the ring have dashed such hopes. Last week…

  • President TrumPutin’s Latest Interview With the Associated Press Is Disturbing

    Look, let’s be honest; we don’t expect much from this president. As long as he can keep his wooden blocks off the floor, not watch the adult channels when Papa Bannon isn’t home and doesn’t pee all over the toilet seat, we will all collectively pat him on the head and send him on his…

  • TrumPutin’s Vacation Plans Have Small NJ Town Worried

    Because President TrumPutin can’t stop vacationing, an entire town in New Jersey is shaking in its boots after learning that 45 may be taking his vacationing ass to one of his golf resorts as nasty Mar-a-Lago closes for the hot season. Trump is expected to make the Trump National Golf Club in Bedminster, N.J., “a…

  • Unique Views, Episode 39: Shaolin Fantastic Came to Get Down

    I don’t like to brag, but during the ’80s I was quite the break-dancer, so having The Get Down star Shameik Moore, who played Shaolin Fantastic, on the show this week was right in my wheelhouse. I am a hip-hop aficionado. Don’t believe me? Just go back and listen to the episodes with me and…

  • Vice President Mike Pence Forces Reporters to Watch Hoosiers

    I knew when I saw photos of Vice President Mike Pence in that dumb-ass leather jacket earlier this week that he was a big old movie buff. I figured it was all about Top Gun, but it turns out it was Hoosiers. Pence, aka Maverick, while on the latest leg of his Eastern Hemisphere tour…

  • First They Stole the Election, and Now We Have Russian Fighter Jets Chilling Near US Airspace

    It’s time for President TrumPutin to get on his burner cellphone and call America’s new play cousin Russia to find out why Russian planes keep riding up and down the coast of Alaska near U.S. airspace. According to CNN, “Russian military aircraft were spotted flying off the coast of Alaska for the fourth time in…

  • Trump Claims His 1st 100 Days in Office Don’t Mean Anything, Since He’s Done Nothing in His 1st 100 Days

    As we have all come to learn with this Milli Vanilli-ass administration, nothing they say means anything. Nothing. While campaigning for president, Twitter Fingers loved to talk about what he’d accomplish in the first 100 days if elected president. Now that he is president and has done nothing of note, except moonwalk back on all…

  • 1st Look at President Vladimir TrumPutin’s New Staff

    Nothing says good ol’ American racism like these three: Kid Rock, Sarah Palin and Ted Nugent. For some reason, maybe because the president is a big ol’ conspiracy-theorist-loving colostomy bag, he had these three over in the White House. No, they aren’t President TrumPutin’s new staff, although they probably have the same IQ. I mean,…

  • Bill O’Reilly Is Out at Fox, and Laughing all the Way to the Bank

    On Wednesday rumors began swirling that Bill O’Reilly was out at Fox News, and before the end of the day, the rumors turned into fact. As sexual allegations mounted against the boisterous, opinionated dirtbag, the Murdoch family was forced to move O’Reilly out. Now CNN Money is reporting that O’Reilly not only had a parachute…
