I knew he was of the band GWAR but for Dave Brockie to appear in his complicated costume AND be funny as hell surprised me. He reportedly OD'd eight years ago but is probably still out there up to something nefarious.

Ridicule is man’s most potent weapon. It’s hard to counterattack ridicule, and it infuriates the opposition, which then reacts to your advantage.
This rule perfectly elucidates the objective of contemporary American comedy. They are far-left PACs masquerading as comedians.
Until Greg Gutfeld came along, every television comedy show including, SNL, the late-night shows an sitcoms followed Alinsky’s fifth rule most assiduously.
When they are called out for going too far they quote George Carlin regarding the duty of the comedian to find where the line is drawn and cross it deliberately. They also will claim to be speaking “truth to power.”
If nothing works they respond with ‘Stop fact-checking or analyzing comedy’ or ‘If you can’t take the heat don’t enter the kitchen’
Surprisingly some of the attacks stick, especially in the minds of casual consumers of news.
For instance, 2008 GOP vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin did not say 'I can see Russia from my house' that line originated from SNL with Tina Fey as Palin. Yet many still attribute that remark to Palin.
This was “mission accomplished” for them, they probably see it as their Watergate.
Alinsky would have been immensely proud of his disciples who probably surpassed his expectations.
It began with the likes of Letterman who would occasionally display viciousness against his ideological opponents, and now we have the Daily Show, Colbert, and Kimmel who rarely display civility towards their ideological opponents.
Jay Leno was the last TV comedian who was an equal opportunity offender from whom entertainment was the goal.
How do they get away with this?

Once I did(or didn't)...
I still found nothing worth watching, let alone paying for.
...but at least I can brag about how many stations (of garbage that I don't watch)I'm able to get out here in the sticks!

And he uses it well exposing the woke simpletons and nit wit hacks humor and truth.
I gave up Fox News years ago after the 2016 Republican primary with Chris Wallace, Bret Baier, and Megyn Kelly. However, my family likes this show and so I watch it.

She was referring to Little Diomede Island, an island located in the Bering Strait and part of Alaska.
But about 2.5 miles away is Big Diomede Island, which is in Russian territory.

I find Gutfeld a jerk on The Five. His attempts at jokes are pathetic.
In my opinion, Gutfeld is suffering from hubris. He was responsible for getting Juan Williams removed from the show, he was given his own show, he's now the "king of late-night," and is acting like a prima donna who has more "power" than he really does.
He can bring his irreverent perspective to the news, but he needs to dial back his schtick when he's on the "mainstream" news programs and save hit for his own show.
