Charlie Kirk's Turning Point USA announced they'll be hosting their own Super Bowl half-time show with "fully Christian, American" performers. 🤣
Bad Bunny is both Catholic AND American. Just not "white enough".

Considering how much WWE and Nexstar are sucking up to the government, probably going to have ICE sponsored matches on NXT soon.

I want them to make what looks like a wild splurge binge on weapons and art and it turns out to only be $5000.

When the really smart play would be to create special features in the Apple ecosystem. Imagine F1TV on Apple Vision Pro where you can get the helmet cam videos of races.

Booked today, and while not quite rush, $70 to see NPH on Broadway is still quite reasonable.

So a 90 minute acting challenge. Perfect to use as entertainment in facilities where the criminals of the current regime are awaiting trial for their crimes.

I’d say it depends on if it was a serious movie or more mockumentary. Because I absolutely could see a Peaches Christ produced drag race film with enough stars that Drag Race is forced to promote it.

Syllogism time!

-- Real men are brave and strong.

-- MAGA men live in the suburbs because they're afraid of crime in the city.

-- Gay men live in the city.

Some context on what this might mean: last weekend Zach Bryan played the largest ticketed concert in US history, selling 112,408 seats at Michigan Stadium.

Country singer Zach Bryan condemns ICE raids in new song teaser, “Bad News”:

“ICE is gonna come bust down your door / Try to build a house, no bills no more, well I got a telephone / Kids are all scared and all alone […] The fading of the red, white and blue.”

Sometimes you cut your airport arrival too close for comfort. And when your delays stack up to arriving at the checkpoint 15 minutes before doors close and there is a line, sometimes you have to accept the signs and walk away with full flight credit.

You can take it off, but just be prepared to put it back on if the game turns.

At this point, the only interest I have in them is to be able to use them to discretely capture any crimes of government that I come across. And I really do not like that this is the reason I am considering getting a pair.

We got so mad at everyone making fun of Gritty when he debuted that we made him into a quasi mascot for the entire spectrum of progressive politics in America through sheer force of will

since portland’s business is apparently everyone’s business, what’s something about *your* city that you can make fun of but outsiders can’t?

In exchange, when we sell the company to a drone and cobalt magnate so I can dive in a pool of gold coins Scrooge McDuck-style, you will be spared my wrath and retribution.
