Don't forget the South Park episode from a few weeks ago. It was beyond disgusting. They roasted Charlie horribly, as well as President Trump and Jesus. The least funny and most awful episode I've seen. Parker and Stone got a billion and a half each at this time. Coincidence? Or are they toasting each other tonight? I hope they choke on it.

MSNBC host Jonathan Capehart almost lost his cool on Saturday when discussing the backlash against Cracker Barrel’s redesigned logo. During an episode of MSNBC’s “The Weekend,” Capehart and co-host Eugene Daniels criticized those outraged over the restaurant’s recent logo redesign, arguing that the backlash is a waste of time and another excuse for MAGA supporters to play the victim. “There are real things people are concerned about, and they’re losing their minds over a redesign. What the — See? I’m trying not to curse,” Capehart told his co-host. The Tennessee-based restaurant chain angered people on social media last week when...

Over the weekend, the US Department of Homeland Security’s X account appeared to reference an antisemitic dog whistle. And it wasn’t the first time that happened this summer. “Which way, American man?” the department’s official page posted Sunday, over a political cartoon from 1936 called “Uncle Sam at the Crossroads.” The post, a recruitment ad for Immigration and Customs Enforcement, alluded to the phrase “Which way, Western man?” — the title of a 1978 book steeped in antisemitic conspiracy theories and explicit threats against Jews. As a social media meme, the phrase has been used to ridicule the “woke,” feminism...

Obama Warns: "Sacrifice May Be Necessary" to Resist Trump Former President Barack Obama admitted during a speech at Hamilton College in Clinton, New York, that some sacrifice might be necessary in order to resist President Donald Trump’s policies. During the event, Obama accused the Trump administration of trying to destroy the post-World War II international order. He then called Trump’s behavior “contrary to the basic compact we have as Americans” and urged students to do more to resist Trump’s policies. “It has been easy during most of our lifetimes to say you are a progressive, or say you are for...

In a new interview with NBC News anchor Lester Holt on Monday, President Joe Biden defended his language in the lead-up to Saturday’s assassination attempt on former President Donald Trump, saying his rival’s rhetoric is the real problem. Some Trump allies have blamed Biden and other Democrats for allegedly fomenting hostility to Trump that they claim contributed to the shooting, including Biden’s telling donors on a private call recently that it is “time to put Trump in a bull's-eye.” Biden said it was a “mistake” to use the word, but dismissed the larger criticism, telling Holt it was merely a...

Whoopi Goldberg told her co-hosts Monday on ABC’s “The View” that Sen. Tim Scott (R-SC) has “Clarence Thomas Syndrome” and used a racist dog whistle during his 2024 Republican presidential bid announcement.” Goldberg said, “If you are going to have talk about personal responsibility. I mean, you know, all they do is talk about a victim. ‘I won the election, I won, I won, I won.’ Come on now, this may have been a bit much, this year, you know?”

ABC legal analyst Sunny Hostin told her co-hosts Friday on ABC’s “The View” that Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) saying she felt threatened by Rep. Jamaal Bowman (D-NY) is a racist “dog whistle.” At a congressional press conference, Greene said, “What’s on video is Jamaal Bowman shouting at the top of his lungs, cursing, calling me a white supremacist, which I take great offense to. That’s like calling a person of color the n-word, which should never happen. Calling me a white supremacist is equal to that. That’s wrong. She added, “I think there’s a lot of concern about Jamaal...

Chick-fil-A scrambled to explain itself after a reply to a customer with the phrase “your community” sparked allegations of racism. The social media backlash began last Friday after one user tweeted the message “grilled spicy deluxe but still noooo spicy nuggets” to the fast-food giant’s official account.

President Joe Biden announced his belief Thursday that former President Donald Trump’s movement to Make America Great Again is basically fascism. “It’s not just Trump, it’s the entire philosophy that underpins the — I’m going to say something — it’s like semi-fascism,” Biden said, criticizing the “extreme MAGA philosophy” driving the Republican Party.

One of the common complaints that you often hear from people on the dissident Right is that “the right wing has no organisation!” To a great extent this is true, at least on a local and demotic level. The organisation that does - at least overtly - seem to exist is found at the establishment, official, and federal level, yet rarely “organises” anything meaningful for the genuine Right. So this organisation, for the average Joe trying to simply live his life without constant harassment from the woke Left, is ephemeral and has little positive impact on his situation. There’s a...

Virginia Democrat Terry McAuliffe (D) is experiencing a wave of mockery on social media over a viral photo showing five individuals claiming to be supporters of his Republican challenger Glenn Youngkin, holding tiki torches outside of a campaign bus — an obvious nod to Charlottesville and white supremacy — as many surmise it is nothing more than a stunt by the Democrat’s supporters days before Election Day.

“I don’t know if the world has ever seen anything like this. A bunch of people who live lives of freedom and relative luxury choosing to destroy their country because they’ve convinced themselves that they are the victims of a completely imaginary oppression.” -Matt Walsh on Imaginary Oppression I think this quote by Matt Walsh on imaginary oppression, like the Matt Walsh quote on leftism, is spot on. The Americans that are protesting and rioting right now aren’t protesting anything real. No oppressive force is ruining their lives, whether they’re white or black. They live lives of luxury, freedom, and...

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi blasted her Republican counterpart, Rep. Kevin McCarthy, for calling for Democratic Rep. Eric Swalwell to be removed from the Intelligence Committee in the wake of reporting that he had a years-long friendship with an alleged Chinese spy.

Post echoed rhetoric of anti-Israel terrorist groups Rep. Rashida Tlaib scrubbed a tweet on Monday that included an anti-Semitic phrase often used by terrorist groups that seek the destruction of Israel. Screenshots show that Tlaib retweeted a Saturday post that included a graphic promoting Palestinian solidarity and the phrase "From the River to the Sea, Palestine will be free." The Palestinian Liberation Organization, Hamas, and Hezbollah regularly use the phrase as a rallying cry against the Jewish state. Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah used the phrase in remarks in which he also called Israel a "cancerous growth" that needed to be...

A woman brandishing a knife on a Pleasantville street was taken into custody Sunday, after officers were able to disarm her using pepper-spray and a tackle. Officers were called to Main Street and Pleasant Avenue at 1:51 p.m. Sunday for the report of a woman brandishing a knife at people in the area, Capt. Matt Hartman said. Multiple officers confronted the woman, who was known to police from previous encounters due to apparent mental issues. She was armed with a steak knife and standing in the middle of the road. Body camera footage of the incident shows the woman yelling...

You may be hearing a lot from President Obama these next couple of weeks because he's promoting his new book, "A Promised Land." In an interview with The Breakfast Club, the hosts asked Obama to share some thoughts on the 2020 presidential election. One thing that really irked 44, he shared, was that so many Hispanics voted for the president. Trump improved his margins in 78 of the nation’s 100 majority-Hispanic counties. "People were surprised about a lot of Hispanic folks who voted for Trump, but there's a lot of evangelical Hispanics, who, the fact that Trump says racist things...

The latest highly anticipated entry in the “Call of Duty” video game franchise seems to center around a rather anti-communist narrative - and it’s got modern American “Reds” running scared. **SNIP** After all, countless works of Cold War spy fiction are based secret plots, conspiracies and intrigue-laden moments in our history. For Kotaku, however, silly spy plots and harmless fun this was not. Instead, it was an effort to prop up supposed right-wing theories that the civil rights movement was actually a secret Soviet plot to overthrow the United States government with communist uprisings. According to the outlet: “Bezmenov’s suggestion...

Benjamin Ryan Teeter was at his home in Hampstead, N.C., when the call to action came. It was an alert from the heart of the raging protests in Minneapolis, posted on an online forum by a fellow member of the Boogaloo movement, a loosely knit group of heavily armed, anti-government extremists. The "alert" was from a man who had a run-in with the Minneapolis police while on the frontline of the police-brutality protests set off by the death of George Floyd. "He caught mace to the face," said Teeter, and "put out a national notice to our network." After Teeter...

Michelle Obama has spoken out against the killing of George Floyd, saying she is 'exhausted' by the racist attacks on black people in America, while calling on everyone to do their part in 'rooting it out.' The former first lady shared an Instagram post on Friday saying she was 'pained' by the recent string of tragedies in the black community and the 'heartbreak that never seems to stop.' 'Right now it's George, Breonna, and Ahmaud. Before that it was Eric [Garner] Sandra [Bland] and Michael [Brown]. It just goes on, and on, and on,' she said. 'Race and racism is...

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi on Monday blasted President Trump’s push for a citizenship question on the 2020 census as an effort to “Make America White Again” — claiming, “it’s not what our founders had in mind.”“They want to make sure that people, certain people, are counted,” Pelosi said at a press conference in San Francisco that focused on election security.“Just their people vote and not the general population,” said the Democratic lawmaker. “That’s why they’re fighting the census.”White House officials did not immediately return requests for comment from The Post on the statements.Pelosi, who was visiting her home district Monday, repeatedly called the idea...
