Vice President Mike Pence is undeniably a self-evident, far-right, theocratic bigot with 19th century ideas about social values, but I think it’s very important to remember something else about him. He’s also a giant moron. Now, I happen to be of the political bent that would put me in a frame of mind to call […] More
Last night on Last Week Tonight, John Oliver explained to viewers everything that those of us who live in Indiana already knew about the current vice president – Indiana’s former governor, Mike Pence. Mike Pence is an anti-LGBTQ misogynist bigot who would very likely be much, much worse for the country if Pence were to […] More

Having received status as a tax-exempt church in April, The Satanic Temple is now challenging a recent Supreme Court ruling regarding the handling of fetal remains on the grounds that it impedes their religious practices. Before becoming Vice President, then-Indiana governor Mike Pence signed legislation that not only blocked abortions for reasons pertaining to race, […] More
After all this time, we’re finally going to see the dark underbelly of the 2016 Trump Presidential Campaign. For two years, Robert Mueller and his team have been investigating Trump and basically any organization remotely affiliated with him. Finally, what happened is going to be exposed to the light of day. The details are far […] More
Ah yes, Indiana. My home state. The state where I was born, grew up, and have lived all 35 years of my life. With exception of Indianapolis, Fort Wayne, the Chicago area, and a pocket near Bloomington (where Indiana University is located), the state is very much pro-Trump. After all, our state legislature tried to let […] More
Wow. That was rough. Typically when presidents address the nation on prime time TV from the Oval Office, they’re discussing incredibly important issues. It’s where John F. Kennedy told the nation about Russian missiles in Cuba. George W. Bush addressed the nation after the September 11th attacks. Ronald Reagan addressed the Challenger disaster. You know, […] More
The ‘prophet’ Muhammad was a pedophile. Neener, neener. You can’t stop me from saying it. The ‘prophet’ Muhammad was a pedophile. That’s because I live in a place that, despite what many claim, values and protects free speech and blasphemy. There are no laws in the United States that allow the government to fine or […] More
I’ve lived in Indiana my entire life. The land of MAGA bumper stickers, Mike Pence, meth labs, and completely preventable HIV outbreaks. It’s a truly magical place. And for a short period of time, we also had a state law that allowed businesses to discriminate against people who were gay or transgender under the guise […] More
Scott Pruitt, the oversized Keebler Elf who was the head of the Environmental Protection Agency for some reason, has resigned due to his superfluous scandals. And they weren’t even good scandals. If you’re going to do some shady shit, do some shady shit. Don’t be like Scott Pruitt, who couldn’t even commit to being shady. […] More
After months of scandal after scandal, the head of the Environmental Protection Agency, Scott Pruitt, has resigned. As you likely know, Scott Pruitt is a climate change denier who directly oversaw efforts to erase climate change data from the EPA’s own website. Despite that, some traces still persist, as I pointed out in a blog […] More
Draft of Trump executive order would legalize discrimination because: God Last week, The Investigative Fund and the website called “The Nation” released a draft of Donald Trump’s executive order entitled “Establishing a Government-Wide Initiative to Respect Religious Freedom.” According to the site, the executive order covers: “any organization, including closely held for-profit corporations,” and protects […] More
Clinton lost. Trump won. Now where do we go from here? President-elect Donald Trump. Holy. Shit. It happened. It really happened. It’s okay to be angry or frustrated. I’m right there with you. Yesterday, we elected someone who is openly racist, openly misogynist, openly xenophobic, and openly does not have a plan for anything he’s […] More
