I can’t watch the news in front of my kids because it’s either people being shot or that vile shithead Trump fomenting a cesspool of hate and lies no kid should ever witness.

When asked about his political views, Carolla said, "I guess I would be Republican, in the sense that I want a secure border, I'm not into the welfare state, I'm not into all those freebie lunch programs.

During the pandemic, Adam took out over $300K in PPP loans and never paid it back.

The DOJ has exactly 4 days to release the Epstein Files.

4 more days of relentless fuckery and mayhem before they violate the law or present us with useless, redacted garbage.

This entire article is positive about Trump Gold Cards. It contains positive quotes about it from Trump, Lutnick and a CEO. It contains no quotes from the many critics of the program. This is sandwiched between 6 posts about Erika Kirk. CBS is lost.
