Comedy:
Ha-Ha

You can draw a straight line from Lenny Bruce in the 1960's to Jimmy Kimmel today.In the modern history of comedy, I can't think of one comedian that should have been cancelled or banned.Let me put this in all caps: NOT ONE.But with that being said, when Roseanne Barr was being cancelled by ABC, Jim...

IT'S TIME TO NAIL THE PARTY OF PEDOPHILES!!!As a libertarian, I support the release of all of the government files on Jeffrey Epstei...

Dane Cook and Matt Rife

My wife asked me to go to a comedy show at the Rocket Arena in Cleveland yesterday.I asked her the headliner and she said Matt Rife. I responded that I had no idea who that was.She said "he has 20 million followers on TikTok."I don't have TikTok. While waiting in the car outside of the Rocket Arena....

Sharon!!!!

From Beacon of Speech last month:"I wanted to watch the Livestream of Ozzy's Final Concert. Looked on streaming services, not there. Looked on YouTube, not there. Looked on cable, not there. The concert was on a website that streamed the concert on a 2-hour delay for $30. Sharon claimed all proceeds...

The Solar Opposites

Way, way back in the year 2013, Rick Harmon and Justin Roiland premiered their cartoon Rick and Morty on Adult Swim and, almost immediately, the cartoon was a massive hit. Almost right from the rip, it generated millions in merchandise.But the animation process was a mess. Harmon's background was in...

Yesterday Donald Trump lamented that Jeffrey Epstein “stole” Virginia Giuffre away from him. Today Scumbag Leftist Rex Huppke wrote that Trump and Epstein used Guiffre during her life.

That may be true, but Huppke didn’t talk about her tragic life, he used her to advance his Anti-Trump agenda. Guess what? Huppke used her too, except he did it after she died.

Instead of demanding everyone from Clinton to Trump and everyone in between be locked up, Huppke used a very narrow focus.

We stand by our Virginia Giuffrie article from last month :

Last week, Virginia Giuffre passed away due to a reported su***de at age 41. Do I believe she committed su***de? I do.Will we ever know the TRUE Virginia Giuffre life story? We will not. But I thought it would be respectful NOT to discuss the nuts and bolts of her life during the grieving period.Let...

RIP Tom Lehrer

When I interviewed him in 1999 I had sent him a copy of 69 Love Songs, and he said, “69 is 67 love songs too many.”

Trivia: He went to summer camp with Stephen Sondheim!

Israel

Let's take a short Bible Quiz, shall we?Who said: 38 “You have heard that it was said, ‘Eye for eye, and tooth for tooth.’[a] 39 But I tell you, do not resist an evil person. If anyone slaps you on the right cheek, turn to them the other cheek also. 40 And if anyone wants to sue you and take y...

Alan Dershowitz

I hate to admit this, but I'm not that smart. I'm really not.I'm not great at keeping secrets, I'm not great at lying.Why? I can't keep track of who's supposed to know what secrets, I can't keep track of who I'm lying to and for what reason. My brain resembles a very messy desk, with just reems of p...

From 2018:

Remember Colin Powell testifying to the U.N. about the "weapons of mass destruction?"I do. Two days ago, obscured by the Brett Kavanaugh hearings, Bibi Netanyahu tried the same thing with Iran. Some vague looking maps with clearly labeled tabs. The problem is, what proof is there that the tabs actua...
