    Black Rapper Cut From White Freaknik, aka CPAC, for Anti-Semitic Tweets

    What happens when a hotep goes so far off the deep end that his third eye opens so wide that he blinds himself? Well, that person can no longer speak at the annual Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC). A man who calls himself “Young Pharaoh” and who surely owns a vast array of “made in…

  • Since Ted Cruz Couldn’t Stay In Cancun, Someone Sent a Mariachi Band to His House

    Texans without heat in the freezing temperatures were still thinking about their senator and his missed vacation when they came up with the brilliant idea to send a little bit of Cancun to his home just to show him how much they care about him. On Sunday, a mariachi band played outside the home of…

  • Merrick Garland Gets Emotional During Senate Confirmation When Talking About Race, and I Owe Him an Apology

    I owe Merrick Garland an apology. When it was announced that Obama’s pick for the Supreme Court (See Mitch McConnell as to why that didn’t happen) would now be President Biden’s pick for attorney general, I said some pretty harsh things about Garland. I called him as special as a pair of all-white socks from…

  • The Supreme Court Just Told Trump He Must Hand Over His Tax Returns

    What is the difference between OnlyFans and Donald Trump’s tax returns for the last eight years? A New York grand jury would have to pay to see nudes on OnlyFans but they are about to see Trump’s butt-ass naked taxes for free. That’s because The Supreme Court, aka the Court of all courts, aka the…

  • Trump to Speak at White Freaknik, aka the Conservative Political Action Conference

    The problem with Donald Trump is that white people, (I know, not all white people, but a lot of y’all) love him. They really believe that he is a messiah or a magician or a madman but they aren’t just enthralled by his antics, they are literally in lockstep with his bullshit. So because the…

    Indiana Republicans Boo Black Lawmakers Speaking About Discrimination

    Nothing says discrimination like booing a Black person trying to talk about discrimination. Such is life during a floor debate inside the Indiana Statehouse on Thursday in which Black lawmakers claimed that a bill would allow students in the largely white St. Joseph County township to leave the racially diverse South Bend Community Schools to…

  • Freezing Texas Residents Aren't All Ted Cruz Left Behind

    When it comes to Republicans, there are apparently two things you can’t fuck with: fertilized eggs and dogs. I think it was Apostle Leon who noted in the Bible that “White people love them some dogs.” Unless you are Texas Sen. Ted Cruz, aka Satan’s phlegm, because he reportedly didn’t just leave his constituents to…

    President Joe Biden, aka “the People’s Champ” aka “Where the Money Resides” aka “We See You Big Shawty” aka “What about that 50K off those Student Loans?” aka “Big Stimmy,” picked Chiquita Brooks-LaSure, a former Obama administration official, to run the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services. “The agency oversees government health insurance programs covering…

  • Chicago Mayor Spent Millions of COVID Relief Money on Police Payroll

    Damn. When Chicago elected the first openly gay Black female mayor in its history, I, like most of us, was excited. She came in hot using her inauguration speech to bash the corruption that is intrinsic to the Chicago political scene. But things started falling apart quickly. Coronavirus hit and her hopes of ending poverty…

  • Ted Cruz Caught Flying to Cancun While Nearly 3 Million Texans Are Still Freezing Without Power and Heat

    Texas Senator Ted Cruz is worthless. The best thing about Ted Cruz is that he appears to know that he’s worthless. Because if the rumors and photos are true that Cruz is flying his wasted ass to Cancun, Mexico, for a vacation while some 3 million Texans are without heat and power in freezing temperatures…
