Newsmax Wants Tucker Carlson to Run Their Entire Network


TMZ is reporting that right-wing cable news channel Newsmax is working hard to land former Fox News anchor and White Nationalist Tucker Carlson.  Sources say Newsmax wants him to be more than just the face of the network, claiming “The news channel is doing everything it can to sweeten the deal for Tucker to come on board - including floating the idea of letting him program the whole channel, not just his own show.”  Tucker would have a “big say in rebranding their network” in addition to his own show if he did decide to make the switch.

Wow, no kidding?  Newsmax wants to turn all their programming over to Tucker Carlson?  I'm sure their legal department is simply thrilled to death about that - literally!  And hiring a two-faced liar to lead your company sounds like a terrific business strategy!  Gee, I guess this means Newsmax must have an extra $750 million in cash laying around and ready to shell out when Tucker does what Tucker does best - spouting lies and unproven conspiracy theories about people and organizations he wants to turn into scapegoats.  Now, for those of you who may not be familiar with them, Newsmax is the cable network for people with head injuries so severe that they believe Fox News was founded by George Soros, Leon Trotsky, and JFK Jr.


Hey, listen - not to be critical, but isn’t hiring Tucker Carlson to head your programming department a little like making an arsonist chief of your fire department?  Seems Newsmax simply can’t stop dumpster-diving in the Fox Studios’ trash bins.  I mean, first, they pull Sean Spicer and Eric Bolling directly out of the garbage, and now Tucker.  Well, this really shouldn’t be a big surprise to anyone.  That truth is, Tucker’s job is very simple, “Fire up the lunatics - and get them mad as hell at all the folks who aren’t lunatics.”  Now, say what you want about right-wing media, but its really a great gig if you can get it.  Its even better than the American Dream, its “people paying you big money - to tell them lies.”

Marjorie Taylor Greene Claims Pete Buttigieg Emasculating Driving With Electric Cars

During a segment on Neil Cavuto’s Fox News program, US Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg was told by the host that Marjorie Taylor Greene is claiming "Mr. Buttigieg is trying to emasculate the way we drive" by supporting electric vehicles.  In response, Buttigieg told Cavuto that “my sense of manhood is not connected to whether my vehicle is fueled by gasoline, or whether it's fueled by electricity.”  When asked by Cavuto if he was offended by what Greene said, Buttigieg remarked "To be honest, there are other members of Congress that I pay more attention to when I'm thinking about opinions that really matter.” Oh, come on now!  Let’s get real.  It would take a helluva lot more than an electric car to “emasculate” Marjorie Taylor Greene.  Besides, I’m pretty sure “real men” actually ride horses, anyway.  Of course, I’m certainly no psychiatrist, but it sounds like Greene’s anger could be a combination of both “road rage” and “roid rage,” leaving her...

Mike Huckabee Claims COVID-19 Death Risk Small and Sin Risk Lethal

Mike Huckabee Claims COVID-19 Death Risk Small and Sin Risk Lethal:   Former Republican presidential candidate Mike Huckabee has stirred some controversy with medical professionals by claiming that the risk of death from coronavirus is very “minimal,” but “sin is 100% lethal. Oh, really Mike?  Then how about showing me a death certificate which lists “sin” as the primary cause of death.  Of course, the fact is, sin couldn’t be 100% lethal, or a guy like me wouldn’t even be alive to write this.   On the other hand, maybe you’re on to something Mike - and sin really is lethal, and I secretly used a “ghostwriter” to write this joke. https://www.johnnyrobishcomedy.com

Trump Takes to Truth Social to Spread ‘Roomer’ About Ron DeSantis

Former president Donald Trump just shared some juicy gossip about Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis on his Truth Social platform.   Trump posted, “Roomer (sic) are (sic) strong in political circles that Ron DeSanctimonious, whose Presidential run is a shambles, and whose poll numbers have absolutely crashed, putting him 3rd and 4th in some states, will be dropping out of the Presidential race in order to run, in Florida, against Rick Scott for Senate.   Now that’s an interesting one, isn’t it?” Gee, Donald Trump spreading “roomers?”  Say it ain’t so!   Now, me thinks perhaps that prestigious Wharton School of Business Trump attended might want to consider adding some basic 3rd-grade spelling classes to its curriculum.   Apparently, Trump is stalled at that level of language development where he is still spelling words phonetically.   Why his poor spelling makes him look like a real “looser.”   Frankly, I’m not sure its a wise choice for Republicans to choose ...
