Trump Hasn’t Taken Questions From the Press in Three Weeks. He Just Held a Press Conference That Lasted 90 Seconds
WTF was Mike Pence doing there? No, seriously. What in the hell was the outgoing vice president doing at Trump’s 90-seconds press conference when people from his home planet of Abstinencia were trying to reach him out in Utah? Much like Melania before him, Pence needs to call “ballgame” and go ahead and head home.…

Yikes! Child Who Got Rudy Gobert's Autograph Has Coronavirus, Others Reportedly Denied Testing
Some of us grew up in urban areas hearing the saying: “You play around, you lay around.” And because of Rudy Gobert’s blatant act of stupidity, hubris and disregard, more people have the deadly disease known as COVID-19 than just his basketball-playing ass. I’m no avid NBA follower so it wasn’t until late this week,…

Bernie Sanders Holds Press Conference to Announce…He’s Still in the Race
Independent Sen. Bernie Sanders sure knows how to milk a moment, doesn’t he? After a Deontay Wilder-like showing on Tuesday, Sanders called a press conference Wednesday to announce that he doesn’t care if he’s a bazillion delegates behind, he’s going to stay in the fight for the Democratic presidential nomination. He then went on a…

The President of the United States Just Publicly Went Out Like a Bitch. And That’s Fine by Us
Starting almost 30 minutes late for his press conference, President Trump—surrounded by a bevy of white men (literally everyone behind him made up the evolution of white men)—appeared to use the strategy officially called “bubble guts,” softening his tone against Iran, which was vastly different than the Twitter tone he had a few days ago.…

Trump Calling Himself the 'Chosen One' Wasn't Even the Most Insane Moment of His Unhinged Rant
On Wednesday, Trump gave what might have been his most bizarre, impromptu press conference to a pool of waiting reporters. Trump’s presidency has been famous for unhinged soundbites; we should never forget that this is a man who was caught on a hot mic proclaiming that sexually assaulting women is perfectly fine—if you’re famous. As…

How the Russia Collusion Investigation Turned Into the Greatest Political Joke Ever
Today was supposed to be a glorious day. Today was supposed to be the day where special counsel Robert Mueller’s two-year investigation confirms everything that those of us who didn’t vote for Trump already knew, that the president of the United States colluded with Russian operatives to steal the 2016 election. Instead, to borrow one…

Trump Just Held a Disastrous Press Conference; Fought With a CNN Correspondent and Called Black Reporter’s Question Racist
This is a trying time for America, but more importantly, for journalists trying to cover King Joffrey Baratheon of the House of White. First off, a Trump press conference is always a disaster, but a day after the midterm elections, the president gave a rare performance, including engaging in a full insult-filled shoutfest with CNN…

Sarah 'Suckabee' Sanders Continues Defense of Hatemonger, the President of Whitekanda
White House press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders aka “Suckabee” aka “The Devil’s Mouthpiece” continues to be the runaway leader in the administration’s competition for the “Worst Person Not Named Trump” award. In another standout performance since Saturday’s massacre at the Tree of Life Synagogue that left 11 people dead, Sanders double-down on the president’s statement…

Trump’s Treatment of Female Reporters During Press Conference Shows Why He Supports Judge Kavanaugh
As with most things during Trump’s presidency, what started as a victory lap over a bootleg NAFTA alternative turned into a show of sexist, misogynistic, male chauvinist pig shit … or in laymen’s terms, “the presidency.” After Trump boasted about his dumb ass trade agreement with Canada and Mexico, more properly called the “I don’t…

Trump Feels Bad for Brett Kavanaugh; Won't Say Christine Blasey Ford's Name
There’s one thing I can say about the xenophobic, racist, sexist Trump train: It’s never late. Speaking for the first time since Christine Blasey Ford’s claim that Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh sexually assaulted her when they were both in high school, President Trump expressed his sympathy and regret and condolences… For Kavanaugh. “I feel…
