Glenn Beck’s pivot is absolutely insane but also the most logical outcome. I’ll forever be kicking myself for asking my parents to get me “Arguing with Idiots” for Christmas when I was a 14.

It never ceases to amaze me that there’s an audience for all these MAGA loons. Good on Jillian Michaels for being able to listen to Junior babble incoherently while sounding condescendingly erudite. He’s looking about as healthy as the rest of the MAHA movement.

Fishback makes the return to debtor’s prisons seem like a great idea. Probably strip all that luxury wear away first. I wear a forty dollar Timex that works great. Maybe just a result of growing up on their ads.

This behavior of loving luxury is typical of people high in “social dominance orientation” a trait described by research psychologist Bob Altemeyer. See theauthoritarians.org for his book (free) and learn what we are dealing with.

No joke, I thought Glenn Beck died of Covid during the pandemic because he wouldn’t get vaccinated. Glad he’s alive, but that shows how little I pay attention to any of those people like Fuentes.

This happened to me in reverse concerning Gene Hackman. His death was even more shocking to me personally because I thought the man died around 2009. And he’s one of my favorite actors, too.

Will, Bravo again. What fantastic scoops, T, dirt... Insanity! How do you get so much much!

And Editorial staff, I could use a footnote for the word "groyper". Not yet in my vocab. And wish it didn't need to be. 🤦 Thanks.

It's also amazing to read about the amount of grift on the far right. Just name after name, this media or that media, and it goes on and on and on. There really are way too many bizarre or weird wealthy people out there funding all this crap.

In the name of God - what slippery rock did these ridiculous folks crawl out from under? ...And to what purpose?

Bless you Will, for pursuing this 'beat'. I cannot imagine how you safeguard your sanity.

For the idly curious in the audience one of my maternal Great-Great Grandfather's Indian name was ᏣᎵᎩᎦᎨᎢ which means "Red (or Bloody) Charley" apparently a moniker he got while serving in the Indian Home Guard during the American Civil War. And our word for Christmas means "when they shoot the guns" referring to how the Americans used to behave around that time. History is a hoot.

It's as if Tom Wolfe's "The Bonfire of the Vanities" came to life some 38 years later, but the characters are even dumber and more corrupt.

Spare a speck of forking kudos to Will for wading through this slop. Listening to these assholes for five minutes makes me so mad I want to burn a building down. Will does it FOR A LIVING.

Thank you for your service, sir. XD

Yeah, I hadn’t seen Junior in ages. He looks like he’s living his best life. It’s great not worshipping mammon. 😉

Will,

Do you actually get paid for writing about these court jesters? It seems like their actions really write these political columns for you! Talk about a cushy gig.

Oh, he pays a price I am sure... having to go through that tripe, harvest the little nuggets, he deserves every penny he gets paid.
