‘I Am Cait’ Appears to Stage Transgenders Thrown Out of a Restaurant

A weird thing happened on Sunday’s edition of E! Channel’s I Am Cait, titled ‘Partner Up’. Okay, let me rephrase that. An exceptionally weird thing happened on Sunday’s edition of I Am Cait, as Chandelier (don’t ask) and Candis make their way through the South on the tour bus.

Twitter CEO Denies 'Censorship' on Today Show; Lauer Lets It Slide

Matt Lauer, aka Mr. Softee (when interviewing people with whom he sympathizes), tried to act like a tough guy in his Friday interview with Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey. You're not fooling us, Matt.

ESPN: Castro Did Bad Stuff But Boxing, Baseball Programs Totes Amazing

Sure, he was a murdering dictator who imprisoned any and all who opposed him and suppressed any dissent through brutal repression. But man, could he appreciate a great curve ball.

'Hitler' Finds Out Scott Baio Endorsed Donald Trump

Just the thought of Hitler ranting about Chachi or "Joanie Loves Chachi" can strike one as funny so perhaps this is why this latest "Hitler" rant video works. In this case we  have "Hitler" screaming about Scott Baio endorsing Donald Trump on Fox's Judge Jeanine Pirro. Okay, perhaps you have to be either a fan of "Happy Days" or its sequel to appreciate the humor so will all those who did not…

Chuck Todd Hammers Harry Reid on Supreme Court Double Standard

NBC Meet the Press host Chuck Todd clearly brought the Tim Russert tactics to his interview with Senate Minority Leader Harry Reid, who bizarrely claimed his career has been dedicated to preventing obstruction. Todd played a 2005 Reid clip: “The duties of the United States Senate are set forth in the Constitution of the United States. Nowhere in that document does it say the Senate has a duty to…

Lefty Writer: GOP’s Been On the Road to Fascism ‘Since at Least 1994’

Plenty of conservatives would concur with Daily Kos writer Mark Sumner that Republican presidential frontrunner Donald Trump is a fascist. They certainly would not agree with Sumner’s belief that the GOP as a whole has become increasingly aligned with fascism “since at least 1994.” Sumner contended in a Sunday article that beginning in “the time of the Gingrich,” Republicans “realized they could…

CNN's Blitzer Invites 'Clean Campaigner' Dukakis to Trash Republicans

As former Massachusetts Governor and 1988 Democratic presidential nominee Michael Dukakis appeared as a guest on Friday's Wolf show, CNN host Wolf Blitzer cued up the Massachusetts liberal to slam the current Republican presidential candidate field: "I remember covering your campaign in 1988. You always insisted on running a pretty clean campaign, a strategy some say may have cost you the race.…

Ex-MSNBCer Toure Pens Screed Against Whites and 'Trumpy KKKLaus'

The most “progressive” salad days of MSNBC continue to go un-missed by most political observers, as can be seen from the latest dropping of political analysis by the pop-culture writer Toure at The Huffington Post. He began with the most unoriginal analysis, that Donald Trump leads a “White Lives Matter” movement and then turned to cartoonish nicknames like “Trumpy KKKLaus.”
