  • Man, We Ain’t Ever Going to Get Another Stimulus Check

    First, there were talks and then the talks were off. Then there were talks about the talks and then those talks were off. Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) said Pelosi’s $3.4 trillion coronavirus proposal was too high.

  • GTFOH Trump Watch: Just Because You Don’t Acknowledge It Doesn’t Mean It Ain’t So

    I don’t think powerful white people understand how this works. And, maybe that is America’s fault. Maybe America didn’t do the hard work of teaching them that sometimes things won’t go their way. Sometimes the hero (both actual and perceived) loses. And sometimes, no matter how much of a temper tantrum they throw, they aren’t…

    Umm, What? White House Tells Federal Agency to Prepare Budget for Next Fiscal Year Like Trump’s Not Going to Be in Prison

    In what might be the most defiant middle finger to President-elect Joe Biden, the voting process, the election, righteous America and Howard University, lame-duck President Trump and his lame-duck staff have instructed federal agencies to continue working on the administration’s budget proposal for the next fiscal year, which is usually issued in February around the…

  • Trump Forms PAC, Ensuring Republicans Don’t Form Spines While He’s Out of the White House

    Trump is spiraling. He’s filed lawsuits against states claiming election fraud, and those states, especially Nevada, are just laughing at him. He’s run out here making all kinds of baseless accusations that ignore the one obvious fact: America didn’t want him in the White House anymore, so they voted him out. That’s it, that’s the…

  • GTFOH Trump Watch: Republicans Going to Republican

    Trump is a lot of things, but vindictive might be at the top of the list. And, because Republicans are a spineless group of bloodthirsty mosquitoes, they literally are willing to latch on to the still fresh corpse of the Trump administration as long as they can get blood and appease their master. Republicans refuse…

  • Doctor of Housing Ben Carson Tests Positive for Coronavirus

    Housing and Urban Development Secretary Ben Carson has tested positive for the coronavirus. Truthfully, Carson could’ve tested positive days ago and told everyone inside the White House, but no one listens to Ben Carson. First, he talks like a whisper that got trapped inside a bottle that was then tossed in the Anacostia River. Second,…

  • The Real President Is Working on a COVID Task Force, While the White House Squatter Is Crying on Twitter

    Recently, my family went to the zoo, and even with the coronavirus restrictions, I can confirm that the monkey house still smells like shit. The funny thing about the monkey house is that the longer you stay inside, the less the smell bothers you. You almost become used to it. That’s been the Trump White…

  • Wait, Is Trump’s Campaign Encouraging Pennsylvania Voters to Mail-In Late Ballots? Sure Sounds Like It

    I don’t know if the Trump campaign is trying to prove a point or trying to steal an election, but a campaign message to Wisconsin voters was looking for volunteers to call Pennsylvania voters in hopes of urging them to mail in absentee ballots by Friday, a desperate attempt to either expose a perceived flaw…
