  • Rand Paul Claims Democrats Created Jim Crow and Are Responsible for Beating John Lewis. Rand Paul Is an Idiot

    If a single boat shoe, a lemon rind and Rand Paul were on a sinking boat and you could only save one thing, tell me why it’s the boat shoe. Rand Paul is the Jim Jordan of Lindsey Grahams. Rand Paul has a white man’s jheri curl. On Sunday, because news stations have time slots that…

  • Florida Couple Planned Whole-Ass Wedding at Mansion They Didn’t Own and Had No Permission to Use

    At this point I’m such a Florida news historian that you can tell me news that happened anywhere around the world, and I can tell you which event happened in Florida, the armpit of America.

  • 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…

    Black Woman Snatches Former Fox News Host's Soul After She Calls Him Out for Pretending to Care About Black People

    Republican SpankBang, aka Fox News, is known for its plethora of white men spouting lies to an audience of dunces. Apparently, a former Republican PornHub host named Eric Bolling (which totally sounds like a porn name) walked off a BBC News show Wednesday after another guest—and current member of the Dora Milaje, also known as…

    Remember back a million years ago when America was under the rule of the most racist president and his sexless robot former Vice President Mike Pence?

  • Texas Sen. John Cornyn: Why Do We Keep Treating Migrants Like Humans?

    Texas Republican Sen. John Cornyn is known for saying insensitive, racist-y, fucked up statements. He blamed the insurrection on the Capitol on “lax security,” called then-President Trump’s second impeachment “awfully vindictive,” “completely unnecessary” and “ill-advised,” and doesn’t believe that there is systemic racism. But his comments Monday might take the cake—all of the cakes: the…

    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.
