Is it a troll, or a serious endorsement? Even Matt Gaetz’ colleagues aren’t certain. Gaetz himself won’t disavow his apparent endorsement of Kevin McCarthy, and his response to reporters when asked about it seem to suggest he might actually believe that Kevin McCarthy would make an excellent Chair of the Republican Party.

Following the September 2022 explosions that took out the Nord Stream pipeline, multiple investigations by different countries were launched to determine who was responsible for the sabotage attack. The United States government seemed oddly uncurious about the event, but other nations were demanding answers. One of those countries was Sweden. Now, nearly one and a […]

Normally, I have zero interest in who elected officials sleep with (unless they are having illicit […]

The re-election campaign isn’t going so well if the polls are correct. The Michigan presidential primary is scheduled for February 27. Biden is sending a group of foreign policy and political […]
Yesterday I wrote about Bud Light’s umpteenth attempt to refurbish its reputation, and I casually noted that Donald Trump–seemingly out of the blue–endorsed the idea of ending the Bud Light boycott and getting back to the important business of drinking piss water.
