  • Orange is the New Red

    The only words I hear are so much of the pontificating chauvinist rude self-centred Joe Scarborough but congratulations the Lincoln Project podcast has as many commercials per second as NSNBC. I know: I timed them.

    Cuck you!

  • Newsom is on point

    Thanks, Rick. What Newsom’s press office is doing is hilarious and is making a mockery of the mockery…the one thing a bully can’t stand and makes them cry. I don’t care if he runs for President. I congratulate him for turning all those stupid and offensive memes by Cumin Caligula on their head.
