Since weโre having such a hard time finding male candidates without a history of abuse, sexual assault, or rape maybe itโs time we started electing more women.
@johnrobertsFox Johnny what stupid collection of remarks. Since you are supposed to work for a news station, here's a newsflash you're 71 years old .
Collecting soda bottles and running a paper route in the 1960s is not the flex you think it is. That was a completely different economy. Back then a single working-class income could often support a family, buy a house, cover healthcare, and build savings. Today millions of people are working full-time, some working two or three jobs, and still canโt cover the basics.
And are you really not understanding that people are not complaining because they canโt afford luxuries. Theyโre talking about necessities, housing, food, gas, insurance, and healthcare. A median home now costs multiples of what it did relative to income compared to your generation. Healthcare costs have exploded. Rent has exploded. Groceries have exploded. Wages have not kept pace.
So this tired โI worked for what I wantedโ story is irrelevant. Good for you. Nobody is asking for a free lunch. Theyโre asking why working hard no longer guarantees the ability to afford the basics of life. Thatโs not entitlement. Thatโs an economy that stopped working for ordinary people.

This Australian's reply to Trump's rant about โNATO not being there for Americaโ is perfect.
"Mate. You run a country with 600,000 homeless people sleeping on the street tonight. A country where 40% of adults can't cover a $400 emergency without borrowing money. A country where insulin costs more than a car payment and people are rationing it to survive. A country where medical debt is the number 1 cause of bankruptcy. A country where women are dying in hospital car parks because doctors are too scared of abortion laws to treat a miscarriage.
You lock up more of your own citizens than any nation on earth. More than China. More than Russia. More than North Korea. The land of the free has 2 million people in cages, and a quarter of them haven't even been convicted of anything. They're just too poor to make bail.
Your life expectancy is going backwards. You're the only developed nation where that's happening. Your infant mortality rate is worse than Cuba's. Your kids do active shooter drills between maths and English while you sell the gunmaker's stock to your mates.
Your minimum wage hasn't moved in 15 years. You've got teachers working 2 jobs and veterans sleeping under bridges and you just spent a trillion dollars flattening a country that didn't attack you.
And youโve got a convicted felon, adjudicating raping, paedophile protecting, porn star shagging insurrectionist running the biggest dumpster fire war campaign since the Taliban thanked you very much for losing again.
And you're calling Greenland poorly run?
Greenland has universal healthcare. Free education. One of the lowest incarceration rates in the world. Nobody goes bankrupt there because they got sick. Nobody dies in a waiting room because their insurance said no.
'NATO wasn't there when we needed them." When exactly was that, champ? September 11? Because NATO invoked Article 5 for the first and only time in history FOR YOU. Soldiers from dozens of countries deployed, fought, bled, and died in Afghanistan FOR YOU. Australia wasn't even in NATO and we still showed up. For 20 years.
And you pulled out at 2am without telling anyone and left them to deal with the mess.
So maybe before you start calling other countries poorly run, have a look at your own backyard, you spray-tanned aluminium siding salesman. The only thing poorly run in this picture is your f----- mouth."
Very well stated.
So let me get this straight: Pulling a chunk of paint out of the Reflecting Pool gets you arrested for vandalism, but trumpโs terrorists who attacked the Capitol, killed cops, broke windows, stole shit, and smeared their feces on the walls get to go free?
Trump blames the pool algae on vandalism. Yes, vandalism in DC is rampant. Last year vandals destroyed half the White House. Last week a gang of criminals ripped up the South Lawn and staged a fight club. A few months ago some cretin graffitied the Kennedy Center with his name!
๐จ๐จ ๐จI'm posting this video every day so we NEVER forget what insurrectionist Donald Trump did on J6
Instead of accepting defeat and honoring the peaceful transfer of power, Trump unleashed a deadly mob on the U.S. Capitol in a last-ditch attempt to stay in power
THIS is what an insurrection looks like ๐๐๐
Imagine Trump ever being invited to join a photo like this โ not in a million years.
Four presidents. Zero drama. Just smiles, respect, and a shared love of country. ๐บ๐ธ
President Obama has a unique way of ROASTING Donald Trump without mentioning him by name, and it drives Trump nuts.
He just did it again, this time in front of every living president.
Watch this. ๐ฅ
How are we supposed to give a flying fuck that Elon is a trillionaire when the guy literally used his power to END programs that fed the poorest people on Earth?
Fuck that selfish asshole, and fuck his trillion dollars helping nobody but his damn self.
