  • GTFOH Trump Watch: But You’re Supposed to Be a Businessman…

    My cousin Mike and I have this ongoing argument that goes like this: My cousin is convinced that Trump might be the best politician to ever grace the White House. His argument is predicated on the belief that Trump has elevated politicking. He doesn’t believe that Trump is racist, but he admires how Trump uses…

  • I Guess We’ve Got to Talk About the Kelly Loeffler and Raphael Warnock Debate

    This debate was doomed before it started. On one side, you have Raphael Warnock, a sensible Black pastor and politician who rose to prominence on the Atlanta political scene after a push to expand Medicare under the Affordable Care Act. On the other side, you have Kelly Loeffler, a Karen, Trump enthusiast who co-owns the…

  • GTFOH Trump Watch: Rudy Got Dat Rona

    For months, the president and his personal lawyer, Rudy Giuliani, have not only openly ignored public health and safety guidelines regarding the coronavirus, but they have both downplayed anything related to the highly contagious virus. Since early February, Rudy Giuliani has refused to wear a mask and has literally been out in public raw dogging…

  • Hear That, Maskholes? President-Elect Joe Biden Will Ask Americans to Wear Masks for 100 Days

    Look, the current president of white supremacy has grand royally fucked up this whole coronavirus thing, so when President-elect Joe Biden takes office, he wants all Americans—including those maskholes who would rather die than wear a paper mask over their racist faces—to wear masks for 100 days so that America can try and get this…

  • How Florida Governor Ron DeSantis Helped His State Become a Superspreader

    How Florida Governor Ron DeSantis Helped His State Become a Superspreader

    If you aren’t familiar with Florida Governor Ron DeSantis, think South Carolina Lindsey Graham but even more spineless. From the beginning of Trump’s presidency, DeSantis has been fighting to win the president’s gaze. At one point, when states were turning up their nose at hosting the GOP convention because of the coronavirus, it was DeSantis…

  • GTFOH Trump Watch: Midnight Regulations

    My sisters and I had this thing that we’d do whenever we were in trouble and needed a parent to sign off on something the school sent home. For me, the one who was always in trouble, I damn near perfected it and it worked like this: Wait until my dad was well into his…

  • The Trump Administration Withheld Phone Numbers of Migrants Captured at the U.S. Border

    The Trump Administration Withheld Phone Numbers of Migrants Captured at the U.S. Border

    How evil must you be to take migrant children from their families after crossing the border and then actively work to keep them in cages, refusing to reunite them with their families? Don’t answer that; we already know. You have to be Trump-administration-evil, which even Satan looks at and shakes his head in disbelief. According to…

    We Have to Talk About Trump’s Star Voter Fraud Witness Melissa Carone

    Umm, I am not a doctor. I don’t even play a doctor on The Root. So I can’t diagnose anyone, nor would I try to, but let me talk a little about Black. Black is harmless. He will cut your grass for $20 no matter how big your yard is. Black will wash your car…

  • GTFOH Trump Watch: The Old Man From Queens Rambles for 46 Minutes

    President Trump either truly believes that this election was stolen from him or he’s ridiculously committed to keeping up with this lie, but either way, it is exhausting. The president of people who believe the election was stolen from him just won’t stop making this claim that there was massive voter fraud and he’s the…

    Some Dude Named Mo Brooks Plans to Challenge the Electoral College Over Joe Biden’s Presidency

    While I thoroughly enjoyed Mel Brooks’ performance in the Oscar-snubbed Spaceballs, Robinhood: Men in Tights and the beloved Blazing Saddles, I’m not fond of Brooks upcoming plans to challenge the Electoral College votes when Congress officially certifies President-elect Joe Biden’s victory on Jan. 6… Managing Editor Genetta Adams: Stephen, it’s Mo Brooks not Mel Brooks.…
