The Bud Light-ization of the MAGA Mind

Filed in National by on July 13, 2023 12 Comments

The Bud Light boycott by MAGA nit wits basically worked.  People who drink shitty beer moved on to some other shitty beer because Bud Light gave a trans person a case one time. That success means everything MAGA decides is doesn’t like is going to be “the next Bud Light”.    In Florida, for example, […]

Rumor Watch: Monica Beard working with people who know what the fuck they are doing

I’m camping out on the Highlands Bunker URL and smashing “refresh” to see if the good news I heard about Monica Bead’s campaign is true.   For now let’s just say that there is a huge quality gap between Democratic campaigns that get it and campaigns that don’t.

By the time DeSantis goes back to spending more time with the family, this guy is probably going the new object of Trump’s withering insults and bullying.  I wonder what he’ll decide pick on? 

Vivek Ramaswamy is paying supporters to find him donors

It now pays to be a supporter of Vivek Ramaswamy’s presidential bid — at least for those who can convince their friends to click a link and donate.

The 37-year-old Republican is launching the “Vivek Kitchen Cabinet,” a scheme that promises to pay participants 10 percent of any money they raise for his campaign. It’s the latest attention-grabbing initiative by the longshot candidate, highlighting the frantic race underway by 2024 GOP presidential contenders to build up their grassroots donor base to qualify for upcoming debates.

Türkiye Changed its Mind – Sweden to Join NATO

It was the flip-flop heard ’round the world: Turkish President RECEP TAYYIP ERDOĞAN finally backed Sweden’s request to join NATO yesterday — after months of resisting pressure from the entire Western world.

What’s a company without companionship?

Filed in National by on July 9, 2023 10 Comments
