I like to expose myself to a pretty wide variety of people all over the political spectrum in order to write political satire. I frequent right-wing and left-wing social media channels every day, so I feel like I get exposed to just about everything out there. In all my years writing hopefully funny fake news […] More
Last night on the hit show “The MC Files”, conservative christian commentator Chris McDonald said that the murder of 50 Muslims in Christchurch, New Zealand was a “false flag” in order to justify the attacks in Sri Lanka that left over 320 Christians dead. If this sounds a lot like Alex Jones-style nonsense, that’s because […] More
The idea that anyone would hunt a gorilla at all makes me furious and sad. I live literally just minutes from the San Diego Safari Park, which is the sister location to what I believe is the best zoo on the planet, the San Diego Zoo. I’ve fortunately been able to visit the Safari Park’s […] More

Today started with Attorney General Bill Barr’s press conference about the report that the press had not yet been able to read. It was little more than a campaign […] More

Following the massive fire at the Notre Dame Cathedral in Paris earlier this week, many Christians have been searching for meaning amidst the chaos. Our friend Hemant Mehta over at Friendly Atheist posted today about how, apparently, some Christians saw the Jesus in the flames. If you don’t see him, look closer. There he is! […] More
A team of Yale scientists successfully restored partial function in the brains of pigs that had been dead for about four hours. I think that this marks the first time that reality has bested the great Rick Sanchez. Science: 1 Death: Well… a lot. But seriously, this research is extremely impressive, though the team was […] More
A massive fire has broken out at the Notre Dame Cathedral in Paris, causing its iconic spire to collapse. As of this writing, we don’t know if anyone has been injured or what started the fire. It goes without saying that I truly hope no one was harmed and that those inside were able to […] More
